Health risks can be mitigated with HVAC

It feels like we are close to the finish line and yet the hardest, toughest part is upon us at the same time.

It’s like running an obstacle course and getting near the end only to find the largest obstacle at the end.

This is what this pandemic experience has been like for me. Here we are going into the winter that appears to be the worst case scenario virus-wise. And yet, there is the hope that a vaccine will soon help all of us to return to some form of normal in the near term. It’s just getting by the last obstacle that is the problem. I know that I am staying put inside the HVAC comfort of home. I can do without restaurants or social gatherings a few more months. I’m lucky enough that I can still earn my living from inside the HVAC of my home office. Additionally, the kids are able to continue their studies in our HVAC as well. All of that HVAC comfort got me to thinking. Maybe it was time to go the extra mile just to get over this last obstacle. With that in mind, I called the HVAC folks and scheduled them to come out and install a whole house air purifier. Knowing what I do about how important the indoor air quality is to the immune health of me and my family, it seemed logical. We already replaced the cheap HVAC air filters with the HEPA type. The benefit has been quite noticeable as the HEPA air filters remove over 99 percent of airborne hazards. The addition of the whole house air purifier will just ensure that we are getting the best indoor air quality possible.
