At Shelter Air, we believe a home should be a sanctuary—a place of comfort, and above all, a space where clean, healthy air is a priority. Research shows that indoor air is often up to eight times more polluted than outdoor air, with contaminants like dust, allergens, and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) impacting your health. Events such as forest fires remind us how crucial it is to manage indoor air quality effectively, keeping contaminants at bay. With our expertise in whole-house, ducted systems, we deliver energy-efficient, comprehensive IAQ solutions that make every corner of your home healthier and more comfortable. Here, we’ll walk you through the essential pillars of IAQ, from ventilation to advanced filtration, and show you how our premium systems can transform your indoor environment.
1. Ventilation: Bringing Fresh Air In
Proper ventilation is essential for replacing stale indoor air with fresh outdoor air. Fresh Air Intakes and Exhaust Fans work together to maintain airflow, controlling humidity, reducing indoor pollutants, and balancing temperature. Systems like Energy Recovery Ventilators (ERVs) and Heat Recovery Ventilators (HRVs) further enhance ventilation by conserving energy while improving air circulation. Our partner brands, including Aprilaire, Honeywell, Panasonic, and Brink, provide high-quality, energy-efficient ERV, HRV, and exhaust fan options that Shelter Air can seamlessly integrate into your home.
2. Advanced Filtration: Media Filters and HEPA Filters
Media filters capture dust, allergens, and larger particulates, while High-Efficiency Particulate Air (HEPA) filters offer enhanced filtration to trap even smaller particles. In homes affected by pollution, HEPA filtration is particularly useful. Shelter Air works with trusted brands like Aprilaire and DustFree to provide high-performance filter options that meet strict standards for particle removal, ensuring your home is clean, comfortable, and healthy.
3. Sterilization and Ionization: Killing Pathogens and Purifying Air
Advanced air sterilization and ionization technologies can neutralize airborne pathogens, including viruses, mold, bacteria, and contaminants from smoke or other environmental pollutants. UV lights and ionization systems, like those from DustFree, Aprilaire and Honeywell are effective in reducing contaminants on a molecular level, creating a healthier environment for you and your family.
4. Humidity Control: Dehumidifiers and Humidifiers
Maintaining balanced humidity levels is crucial to indoor air quality. Dehumidifiers help prevent mold growth and dust mites in high-humidity conditions, while humidifiers add moisture during dry seasons. Shelter Air offers top-of-the-line products from SanteFe, Aprilaire, and Honeywell, ensuring that your home’s humidity levels remain stable and healthy year-round.
5. Control Systems: Monitoring and Optimizing IAQ
Modern IAQ systems aren’t just about treatment—they’re also about real-time control and monitoring. Advanced systems like HAVEN and Ecobee track air quality continuously, automatically adjusting settings to maintain clean, comfortable air. With these control systems, you gain insight into indoor air quality and have the flexibility to make adjustments as needed.
