Indoor air quality is sometimes overlooked when thinking about your HVAC system, we provide top quality products from various manufacturers to help improve the quality of the air you breath while inside. Rescuetek HVAC/R Services has provided indoor air-quality products and service to improve the health of our customers.
Indoor air can become particle ridden with dust, animal dander, and other contaminants that adversely effect health and shorten HVAC system life. We offer customized solutions to fit your budget, equipment location, and indoor air quality goals. Don't get left in the dust, install a quality air cleaners and improve your indoor environment.
As we strive for energy efficiency, our building envelope improves thereby trapping air inside. As a result air becomes stagnant, odors linger, contaminants build up. The solution is a heat recovery ventilation system, that exhausts stale air, and brings in fresh air while transferring the heat to improve efficiency. Some municipalities require this in their newest building codes.
Utilized to reduce viruses, bacteria, mold, and other contaminants in your indoor air and surfaces while your HVAC fan is operating. We offer professional installation and repair of air purification systems by our highly trained HVAC installation team.
Even when its snowing out with high humidity, furnace operation expands the air volume causing a steep drop in humidity levels. Adding a humidifiers increases the humidity to acceptable levels. You can count on Rescuetek HVAC/R Services professional
Indoor air can be 2-5 times more polluted than outdoor air according to the EPA. Poor air quality causes allergies, asthma flare-ups, respiratory issues, headaches, and fatigue. Common indoor pollutants include dust, pollen, pet dander, mold spores, VOCs from cleaning products, and bacteria. Improving air quality enhances health, sleep quality, and overall comfort—especially important since most people spend 90% of time indoors.
We install comprehensive air quality solutions: Trane CleanEffects (removes 99.98% of airborne particles), Aprilaire andHoneywell air cleaners (HEPA and electronic filters), whole-home humidifiers (maintains 30-50% humidity),Heat Recovery Ventilators (HRVs) (fresh air exchange while preserving energy), UV lights (kills mold and bacteria), and air purification systems. We customize solutions based on your specific concerns and budget.
Costs vary by system: HEPA filters $300-$800, whole-home humidifiers $400-$1,200, UV lights $500-$900,air purifiers $600-$1,500, Trane CleanEffects $1,200-$2,000, HRV systems $1,500-$3,500. Installation included. Most systems pay for themselves through reduced HVAC maintenance, extended equipment life, and lower medical costs. We offer free in-home assessments and quotes.
Yes! Whole-home air purifiers integrated with your HVAC system remove 95-99.98% of airborne allergens including pollen, pet dander, dust mites, and mold spores. Unlike portable units that only clean one room, whole-home systems purify air throughout your entire house. Most allergy sufferers notice significant relief within 2-4 weeks. Combine with regular HVAC maintenance and filter changes for best results.
Yes, especially in winter! Heating systems dry out indoor air (often below 20% humidity), causing dry skin, bloody noses, static electricity, cracked wood furniture, and increased illness transmission. Whole-home humidifiers maintain healthy 30-50% humidity automatically. Benefits include better sleep, healthier skin, preserved wood floors/furniture, and feeling warmer at lower temperatures (saving on heating costs). We install bypass, fan-powered, and steam humidifiers.
An HRV brings fresh outdoor air into your home while exhausting stale indoor air, transferring heat between airstreams to maintain energy efficiency. In winter, incoming cold air is warmed by outgoing warm air. In summer, incoming hot air is cooled by outgoing cool air. This prevents stuffiness, reduces indoor pollutants, controls humidity, and maintains comfort without wasting energy. Ideal for tightly sealed homes or those with poor ventilation.
Standard 1-inch filters should be changed every 30-60 days (more often with pets or allergies). 4-inch media filters last 6-12 months. Electronic air cleaners and HEPA systems need cleaning/replacement every 6-12 months. Dirty filters reduce airflow, lower efficiency, increase energy bills, and strain your HVAC system.
