FAQs
What services do you offer for improving indoor air quality in Speedwell?
We provide a full suite of indoor air-quality solutions including whole-home air purifiers, high-efficiency media filters, UV germicidal lights, humidity control systems, and duct cleaning. Our technicians evaluate your home’s unique needs, measure existing air quality, and design a customized plan that removes airborne pollutants, controls moisture, and ensures proper ventilation.
How often should my HVAC filters be replaced?
For most Speedwell homes, standard 1-inch filters should be changed every 30–60 days. Thicker 4- to 5-inch media filters can last 6–12 months. Homes with pets, allergy sufferers, or recent construction may need more frequent changes. We can recommend a filter schedule based on your system, lifestyle, and local pollen levels.
Why is balanced ventilation important for comfort and health?
Balanced ventilation continuously brings in fresh outdoor air while exhausting stale indoor air, preventing the buildup of carbon dioxide, VOCs, and humidity. This helps reduce odors, allergens, and mold growth while stabilizing indoor temperatures. Our Energy Recovery Ventilators (ERVs) and Heat Recovery Ventilators (HRVs) recover up to 80% of the energy normally lost with simple exhaust fans, so you enjoy healthier air without higher utility bills.
Can you integrate air purification with my existing heating and cooling system?
Yes. Most modern air purification units, such as media filters, electronic air cleaners, and UV lamps, are designed to retrofit into your current ductwork. After an on-site inspection, we identify the proper mounting location and ensure your blower has adequate capacity. Installation usually takes 2–4 hours and requires no changes to your thermostat or daily operation.
What signs indicate my home may have poor ventilation?
Common symptoms include lingering cooking odors, musty smells, condensation on windows, uneven temperatures between rooms, and frequent allergy or asthma flare-ups indoors. You might also notice excessive dust buildup. If you experience any of these, schedule an indoor air assessment so we can measure airflow, humidity, and pollutant levels and recommend corrective steps.
How do smart thermostats improve comfort and air quality?
Smart thermostats learn your schedule to maintain optimal temperatures automatically, but many also control ventilation fans, humidifiers, and dehumidifiers. By coordinating these devices, the thermostat keeps humidity between 30–50%, circulates fresh air at preset times, and notifies you when filters need replacing—ensuring consistent comfort and healthier indoor air year-round.
