Indoor Air Quality Golden CO | Mighty Pine Heating & Air

The indoor air quality of your Golden, CO home is essential to the overall health of your family and the comfort of your home. The air inside your home can be nearly five times more polluted than the air outside. Polluted indoor air can lead to asthma attacks, respiratory illnesses, poor sleep, and other health-related problems. Modern homes are designed to be airtight in an effort to maximize energy efficiency. However, this comes at a cost since there is no way for your home to “breathe.”

At Mighty Pine Heating & Air, we offer a wide range of indoor air quality solutions to improve the air exchange within your home and remove harmful contaminates, including the following:

Ventilators
Humidifiers
Dehumidifiers
Whole house fans
Air purifiers

UV lights
Air filters
IAQ testing
Air balancing

Whole House Fans

A whole-house fan pulls in cool air from outside and pushes hot air into and out of the attic. They are a type of cooling system commonly used during mild times of the year to cool your home and provide fresh air from outside. A whole-house fan should not be used simultaneously with a conventional air conditioner, though they can complement each other.

During the spring and fall, whole-house fan systems are an efficient way to cool your home. They do not require any refrigerant and use about 90% less energy than an air conditioner. Whole-house fans help improve indoor air quality by replacing the stale air with fresh outside air.

We also offer expert indoor air quality service in:

Arvada

Ventilation & Filters

Whole-home ventilation systems work in tandem with your HVAC system to provide a consistent supply of fresh air into your home. These systems usually come with air filters to remove contaminants. Energy recovery ventilators use some of the outgoing air’s heat energy to condition the incoming air. Less energy is then needed to get the air to the desired temperature. Like a whole house fan, ventilation systems improve indoor air quality by providing fresh air from outside that is prefiltered before reaching the heating or cooling unit.

Air filters are essential for HVAC systems. Not only do they help remove particles and some allergens from the air, but they keep dust from settling on the working components of your system. Dust buildup can lead to system overheating and reduced air quality inside your home. You should use a filter that is compatible with your HVAC. All systems have a range of filter MERV ratings that they can accommodate. Using one that is too high for your system can result in pressure issues and cause inefficiency and even overheating. We carry all common sizes of air filters and can help you choose the right filter for your system that balances system efficiency with improved air quality.

IAQ Testing

Scheduling IAQ testing with professionals like those we have here at Mighty Pine Heating & Air can help you determine the types and levels of pollutants in your home. The information collected during IAQ testing helps us give you options that are customized to your residence.

Indoor quality testing can show you levels of the following:

Allergens

Mold

Radon

Volatile organic compounds

Combustion pollutants

Humidifiers and Dehumidifiers

Indoor humidity levels are a major part of how comfortable your home is. Too much moisture in the air can result in the growth of biological pollutants such as mold and mildew. When there isn’t enough moisture in the air, dust and other pollutants are able to lift and float through the air. Depending on the needs of your home, you can get both a whole-home humidifier and dehumidifier. These systems are installed to work in tandem with your HVAC system. They will have a hygrometer to measure the moisture levels of the air. The recommended humidity level for your home is between 30% and 50%.

Air Purifiers

Whole-home air purifiers are integrated with the HVAC system. They are typically installed in the ductwork of the return vent. All air entering the HVAC system to be heated or cooled will go through the air purifier first. An air purifier can remove things like allergens and dust. For even better air purification, a UV light can also be installed. UV lights are capable of destroying viruses and bacteria.
