Air Filtration

When looking at air filters, it’s essential to look at the MERV rating, or Minimum Efficiency Reporting Value. This assesses how efficiently it filters contaminants.

One of the most average and lowest priced filters, flat fiberglass filters, rank between 1 and 4 on the MERV register. Pleated filters are somewhat better, graded between 8 and 12.

We advise installing at least MERV 13, for instance the HC13 Media Air Cleaner, for the best results. This filter delivers clearer air while lowering energy consumption.

High Efficiency Particulate Air (HEPA) filters are regarded as the gold standard in air filtration, as they’re usually used in hospitals. They’re effective at capturing 99.97–99.99% of indoor pollutants, including pollen, pet dander and smoke.

Air Purification

Lennox provides some of the greatest air purification equipment you can buy. PureAir™ S and Healthy Climate™ PureAir Air Purification Systems provide hospital-grade filtration while handling all categories of indoor air contaminants.

These powerful units can take care of:

• 99.9% of allergens, such as pollen, dust and pet dander.
• 95% of bacteria-sized particles, like ones that contribute to strep throat.
• 50% of VOCs and odors within 24 hours.

UV Germicidal Lights

A UV germicidal light is installed on the inside of your comfort equipment. Its penetrating rays eradicate bacteria and mold within seconds.

If your family suffers from allergies or asthma, this unit may provide relief. Especially if you reside in an extremely hot climate where bacteria and mold grow quickly.

This light also has an additional perk for your HVAC unit. It could help it work for a longer period of time and heat and cool more efficiently, as it keeps the internal parts clean.

Our air quality engineers suggest using one of these lights with an improved filter, such as our Carbon Clean 16® Media Air Cleaner, for optimal outcome. This filter offers industry-leading MERV 16 filtration in addition to carbon-coated fibers to remove particles from your home’s air. It does all of this without decreasing your heating and cooling unit’s airflow.

Whole-Home Humidifiers

Acquiring even humidity in your house can help keep your loved ones from getting sick when it’s cold. It can help with sore throats, dry skin and peeling lips, amidst added cold weather irritations.

If you don’t know what your home’s humidity level is, we’ll measure it while we perform your indoor air quality audit. While the range fluctuates based upon outdoor temperatures, HVAC professionals usually recommend keeping it between 40–60 percent.

You can accomplish this ideal range by using a whole-home humidifier. This system typically works with your furnace or air handler to provide optimum humidity throughout your home. Some units, like the Healthy Climate® Whole-Home Power Humidifier, contain an included fan to circulate humidity while your heating system isn’t on.
