The air inside your home can hold more pollen, dust, and dander than the air outside — especially in a well-sealed New York house closed up for a long winter. Whole-home filtration cleans every cubic foot your HVAC system moves, not just one room.
Filtration services we provide
- Media air cleaner installation (MERV 11–16) sized to your system
- HEPA bypass systems for allergy- and asthma-sensitive households
- Electronic air cleaner service and replacement
- Filter rack corrections so air can’t bypass the filter
- Filter subscriptions and maintenance scheduling
Filtration is a balance: too little media area chokes airflow, the wrong MERV rating misses what you’re actually allergic to. We match the filter to your blower and your household — upstate pollen seasons included.
Frequently Asked Questions
What MERV rating should I use?
MERV 11–13 captures pollen, dust, and pet dander without strangling most residential blowers. True HEPA needs a dedicated bypass unit — going too high on a standard rack can hurt airflow and efficiency.
How often should filters be changed?
One-inch filters every 1–3 months; four-to-five-inch media filters every 6–12 months. Homes with pets or allergies should lean toward the short end — and check mid-pollen-season.
Will better filtration help my allergies?
Meaningfully, yes — especially paired with duct sealing so untreated air isn’t leaking in around the filter. For allergy-driven households we often combine media filtration with UV purification.
