Air filters are rated system with an efficiency value or MERV ratings. These ratings range from 1 (lowest) to 20 (highest), and are based on the filter’s ability to trap and remove airborne particles and also how well they resist airflow. Albany Mechanical is here to help you determine which type of air filters are best for your environment. HEPA filters excel at removing larger particles like pet dander, dust mites, tobacco smoke, and pollen, while activated charcoal filters are best for removing volatile organic compounds or VOCs, odors, and other gases given off by man-made products.
Selecting the wrong air filters can actually reduce the efficiency of your HVAC system which means the quality of your indoor air will be reduced. And the wrong size air filter can leave gaps at the top or bottom of your heating and cooling system. This means the system will draw in dust, debris, pollutants, and pollen directly into the system to be redistributed into your home.
Our HVAC Maintenance plan is designed to give you peace-of-mind that the right size and the right type of air filters are installed in your HVAC. And of course, we will switch out your air filters on a regular basis to keep your indoor air quality at its highest.
