\"Dramatic<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

Recent wildfires in Canada and the ensuing smoke have created a dangerously high Air Quality Index that affected the air quality of many states across the US. With the increased frequency of wildfires over the years, many homeowners have purchased air purifiers that are designed to clean the air in their homes. However, these portable devices have their shortcomings and aren\u2019t able to clean more than a room at a time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When it comes to combatting not only wildfire smoke but also poor indoor air quality, the best defense is a good offense. That\u2019s why we recommend the installation of a whole-house air purifier system. Learn how air purifiers help reduce harmful airborne particles and improve your home\u2019s environment<\/a>. One of the systems we install is the UV\u00ae APCO\u00ae-X from Fresh-Aire, a company that\u2019s committed to providing industry-leading solutions organically, removing harmful pathogens, particulates, and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) without introducing any by-products.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Fresh-Aire UV filtration solutions are designed to improve a home\u2019s filtration efficiency by capturing airborne particulates including PM2.5 contaminants. PM2.5 are ultra-fine airborne particles under 2.5 microns in size. These incredibly small particles are small enough to infiltrate your lungs and bloodstream. Discover how investing in an air purifier can help you fall in love with your home again<\/a>. Wildfire smoke, soot, and ash contain these dangerous ultrafine particles. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The whole house APCO-X system is installed harmoniously with your existing HVAC system. This system is the result of more than a decade of development and is one of the most advanced indoor air treatment systems. It combines UVC light and proprietary activated carbon technology to safely and effectively neutralize odor-causing VOCs and biological contaminants. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
