Indoor Air Quality

Here's What You're Breathing

The average person breathes 3,400 gallons of air each day. Unfortunately, air isn’t all you’re inhaling. Mold spores, pollen, bacteria, dust and other particles exist in virtually all indoor air.

Since homes are built increasingly airtight to conserve energy, harmful pollutants and dry, stale air can be trapped inside with no where to escape. The result can be degraded indoor air quality.

According to the Environmental Protection Agency, the air inside a home can be 2-5 times more polluted than air outside. However, as a homeowner, there is a lot you can do to improve the air your family breathes.

Trane CleanEffects Clean Air System

Take action and start cleaning your air. Trane CleanEffects™ is the world's most effective whole-house air filtration system. It’s capable of removing up to 99.98% of particles and allergens from filtered air to help your family breathe cleaner, healthier air.

The standard air cleaners on the market have filters that are very dense. Meaning they try to stop the dust by trapping it in a slightly porous filter. The fewer the pores the more dust it can trap. However, this not only stops the dust and dirt, but it also stops the air from moving as well. In other words, the amount of air that goes through your system is reduced so you may not be as comfortable. Less air is cleaned efficiently. This is called pressure drop. The revolutionary Trane CleanEffects air filtration system has the lowest pressure drop with the highest efficiency possible. Our unique patented technology is designed to let air flow freely through the most advanced filtration system available. The result, more of your air is cleaned faster and more effectively than anything else on the market.

Trane CleanEffects utilizes patented, breakthrough air cleaning technology to remove up to an astounding 99.98% of airborne allergens from the air that passes through the filter, making it 8 times more effective than even the best HEPA room filters and up to 100 times more effective than a standard 1" filter. What's more, Trane CleanEffects has been performance-tested by LMS Technologies and Environmental Health & Engineering, Inc. (EH&E), with the results verified by professors from the Harvard School of Public Health, so you know you're getting an air filtration system like no other.

LMS Technologies is a technology consulting company that specializes in air flow measurement, filtration testing and particle analysis. Environmental Health & Engineering is an environmental consulting and engineering services company that is dedicated to ensuring safe and productive environments, and is co-founded by John D. Spengler, PhD of the Department of Environmental Health at Harvard.

Honeywell Whole House Air Cleaners

When a Honeywell Whole-House Air Cleaner is installed by Vertex Mechanical into your home’s central heating and cooling system, it traps and filters 98% of pollutants passing through the duct system. This will also keep dust and dirt from building up on your equipment which means your heating and cooling system will run better (requiring less maintanence) and have a longer operating lifecycle.

The Honeywell Electronic Air Cleaner works by placing an electric charge on airborne particles and then collecting the charged pollutants like a magnet. You can say goodbye to monthly filter replacements by simply washing the air cleaner cells in your dishwasher or sink.

A standard 1-inch furnace filter offers only limited capture of airborne particles and pollutants compared to the deep-pleated media filter found in a Honeywell Media Air Cleaner.

Honeywell Media and Electronic Air Cleaners are easy-to-use, whole-house filtration solutions that trap up to 60 times more airborne particles than a standard 1-inch filter.

Over time, the purchase of a Honeywell Whole-House Cleaner can pay for itself compared to the monthly purchase of of 1-inch filter. Plus, you’re sure to notice a difference in the quality of air in your home.
