FAQs
What ventilation and air-quality services do you provide for homes in Norris?
We offer complete ventilation system design and installation, whole-house air purifiers, high-efficiency filtration upgrades (MERV 11–16 and HEPA), energy-recovery ventilators (ERVs), UV-C germicidal lamps, humidity control solutions, and ongoing maintenance plans to ensure your indoor air stays fresh, balanced, and contaminant-free year-round.
How can better ventilation improve my family’s health and comfort?
Properly designed ventilation constantly exchanges stale indoor air with filtered outdoor air, reducing concentrations of allergens, mold spores, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and excess moisture. This helps alleviate asthma and allergy symptoms, prevents musty odors and mold growth, stabilizes indoor humidity, and keeps temperature more consistent—creating a noticeably healthier, more comfortable living environment.
Are energy-efficient ventilation upgrades expensive to operate?
No. Modern ERVs and high-efficiency fans use variable-speed ECM motors that consume up to 70 % less electricity than older models. By reclaiming heat (or cooling) from outgoing air, an ERV can cut ventilation-related energy losses by 40–60 %, often paying for itself in utility savings within 3–5 years. We size and balance every system to minimize runtime and maximize efficiency.
How often should I replace or clean my HVAC filters for optimal air quality?
For standard 1-inch pleated filters, we recommend replacement every 60 days—more frequently (30 days) if you have pets, smokers, or allergies. 4- to 5-inch media filters last 6–12 months, while true HEPA canisters typically need service annually. During a maintenance visit, our technicians in Norris will inspect airflow, pressure drop, and filter condition to set a schedule tailored to your home and lifestyle.
Can you integrate air-quality upgrades with my existing heating and cooling system?
Yes. Most air purifiers, media cabinets, and UV lights retrofit easily into the return plenum of your current furnace or air-handler. ERVs can share ductwork or use dedicated supply/exhaust lines. Our team evaluates your equipment, duct size, and available space to recommend options that won’t void warranties or compromise system performance.
What warranties and maintenance support do you offer residents of Norris?
All new ventilation and air-quality equipment comes with a 10-year parts warranty and a 1-year labor warranty. Sign up for our Comfort Club, and you’ll receive two precision tune-ups per year, priority scheduling, and 15 % off repairs. We also track filter change reminders and provide free indoor-air testing during annual visits to ensure your system continues running efficiently and safely.
