Installed in your ductwork, this traps particles from all the air that passes through your HVAC system and out your vents to be breathed. Filters are multi-layered stacks of paper, cloth, fiberglass, or cellulose, in a variety of types that you can choose depending on your own specific air quality concerns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a href=\"\/indoor-air-quality\/air-purifier\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">Electronic Air Cleaners<\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>One type of air purifier uses electrical charges, positive and negative, to essentially magnetize particles that float through your ducts and trap them with polar opposite energy fields. This is a great way to trap even those specks that are too small to be caught by most filters! The accumulated dust and particles can be easily wiped away during a simple maintenance process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a href=\"\/indoor-air-quality\/uv-air-purifier\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">UV Air Purifiers<\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Ultraviolet light is amazing. It can get straight into tiny germs and microbes, passing through their outer membranes and quite literally disconnecting the protein bonds that hold their structures together. These little pathogens are not simply trapped. They\u2019re dead, unable to reproduce or cause anyone any inconvenience again! And all it took was light.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re concerned about your safety, keep in mind that the UV light which harms these single-celled organisms is similar to the radiation from the sun. Is it safe to sunbathe constantly? No. But it\u2019s not dangerous the way it is to a germ. And again, these systems are installed inside your ductwork. The light stays in, where it won\u2019t shine on you at all!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Benefits of Cleaner Air<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There are many things people report in the way of health improvements when they use these systems to get better indoor air quality. Fewer days sick, less missed work and school, reduced frequency of asthma attacks and allergy symptoms, fewer headaches, and even better moods, more energy, and more restful sleep are among the benefits!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And that\u2019s not all. Cleaner air is better for your home, too! Eliminating the bacteria that cause unpleasant odors will make your home smell fresher. Those icky germs floating up from your trash can or your teenager\u2019s shoes will no longer affect your nose! And since mold reproduces by sending spores into the air, cleaner air will mean less mold in the house, too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We\u2019re ready to help you with your air in <a href=\"\/service-areas\/burlington-county-nj-heating-air-conditioning\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">Burlington County, NJ<\/a> and neighboring areas like <a href=\"\/service-areas\/glassboro-nj\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">Glassboro<\/a>, <a href=\"\/service-areas\/gloucester-city-nj\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">Gloucester City<\/a>, and <a href=\"\/service-areas\/greenwich-nj\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">Greenwich<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><a href=\"\/contact\/send-message\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\"><strong>Contact Ambient Comfort for comprehensive air quality support.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>And indoor air is far more contaminated than the fresh air that\u2019s outdoors!
