We understand the sentiment that homeowners who experience this have. If temperatures are reaching unbearable heights and the sun is beating down on you, it can be easy to confuse ice on your air conditioning system with it doing a good job—but this is just plain wrong.

Most homeowners won’t believe this unless they learn the truth about why the ice is forming on their air conditioning system and what that means for their home. Once you know why it’s happening, it might be easier to understand why this is always a bad thing to see

At that point, it should be obvious to call your local service professional for HVAC in Livingston. By removing the ice and repairing the problem, you can finally have your system cool your home the right way.

While there are various and effective indoor air quality measures available to help protect your safety, including duct sanitization, ultraviolet (UV) germicidal light treatment, and HEPA air filters, they alone cannot protect from all forms of COVID-19 transmission.

Stay Healthy with an Air Filtration and Purification System

March 12th, 2020

Keeping your home air safe has never been as important as it is now. In light of global health concerns, we found it important to talk about what a UV air purifier and, to a lesser extent, what a HEPA filter can do to support the indoor air quality and cleanliness of your home.

The Fantech HEPA Air Filter

With a Fantech HEPA Air Filtration System, you can filter the air that comes into your home from the outside. HEPA filters are well known for being able to filter 99.9% of all air that goes through your HVAC system, meaning you’ll be breathing air that’s free of dust, debris, pet dander, and other contaminants.

The Honeywell 24V Ultraviolet Air Purifier

However, if you’re looking to stop microbial contaminants from causing harm to you and your family, then a HEPA filter won’t be able to do the job. An ultraviolet (UV) air purifier is the system for you.

The Honeywell 24V Ultraviolet Air Purifier runs in your ductwork, using ultraviolet rays and carbon cells to capture odor-causing airborne particles and transform them into harmless water vapor. The germicidal light will destroy germs and mold in your home while reducing volatile organic compounds as well.

Know the Difference

It’s important to know the difference between an air filtration system and an air purification system. Our Fantech HEPA Air Filter will filter out particles above a certain size category, but won’t do anything about microbial germs and mold spores. The Honeywell 24V Ultraviolet Air Purifier will eliminate said germs and mold spores. An ultraviolet air purifier has a unique advantage when trying to protect your home from microbial organisms that could make you sick.
