Filtering Systems
The average home produces forty
pounds of dust per year for every 1,500 square feet of living space.
Standard cardboar d
frame filters are only about 15% effective in removing dust and
particles from the air. They have little or no effect on pollen,
micro-organisms, smoke or other similar pollutants.
Electrostatic filters do a slightly
better job; they are 20% effective in removing dust and particles from the air,
provided that they are rinsed off once a month. Because they can be cleaned and
reused, they are more economical than disposable filters.
The same airborne particles which
impact human respiratory health also may also damage home entertainment centers
and computer equipment and can compromise air conditioning equipment by forcing
it to work harder, thereby reducing its efficiency and possibly shortening its
lifespan. A mechanical air
cleaner can pay for itself by increasing energy efficiency and
prolonging the life of your cooling system. Mechanical air cleaners are 80% to
95% effective in removing the airborne pollutants, including the smaller
pollutants which readily pass through standard cardboard and electrostatic
filters. These pollutants include bacteria, dust mites, mildew, lint, fungus,
smoke, cooking grease, bacteria and even some viruses. A mechanical air cleaner
consists of a case and a HEPA filter. The HEPA filter should be replaced once a
year. If the HEPA filter is not replaced, it will eventually become so clogged
that it will restrict air flow to your air conditioning system and the system
will not be able to effectively cool your home or place of business.
