FAQs
What makes high-performance air filtration different from standard HVAC filters?
High-performance filters use denser media—often pleated synthetic fibers or true HEPA material—that captures much smaller particles (down to 0.3 microns) than a typical fiberglass filter. This means they trap dust, pollen, mold spores, pet dander, smoke, and even some bacteria, significantly improving indoor air quality without restricting airflow when properly matched to your system.
Will upgrading to a high-performance filter affect my heating or cooling system’s efficiency?
If the filter is correctly selected for your equipment, efficiency will not drop—in fact, it can improve. Cleaner coils and blowers reduce strain on the system, helping it maintain set temperatures with less energy. However, an overly restrictive filter installed in a unit not designed for it can increase static pressure and raise energy use, so professional sizing is essential.
How often should I replace or clean a high-performance filter?
Most advanced filters should be replaced every 3–6 months, depending on usage, household occupancy, and local air quality in Jasper. Homes with pets, smokers, or allergy sufferers may need monthly inspections. Some premium media filters last up to 12 months, while electronic air cleaners require quarterly washing of their collector plates.
Can I add whole-home ventilation to improve air quality without losing heat or cooling?
Yes. Energy Recovery Ventilators (ERVs) and Heat Recovery Ventilators (HRVs) bring in fresh outdoor air while transferring heat and moisture between the incoming and outgoing airstreams. This maintains indoor comfort and minimizes energy loss, making them ideal for Jasper’s variable climate and today’s airtight homes.
What indoor contaminants will high-performance filtration and ventilation address?
Enhanced filtration removes particulate matter such as dust, pollen, smoke, and fine PM2.5 pollution. Ventilation systems dilute and expel volatile organic compounds (VOCs), carbon dioxide, odors, and excess humidity. Together they reduce allergens, respiratory irritants, and mold-friendly conditions, creating a healthier living environment.
Is professional installation really necessary, or can I DIY these upgrades?
While swapping a basic filter is simple, installing a true high-performance filtration cabinet, HRV/ERV, or electronic air cleaner involves duct modifications, electrical hookups, and static-pressure calculations. Professional installation ensures proper sizing, maintains manufacturer warranties, and guarantees the system meets local building codes and ENERGY STAR guidelines.
