Air Quality
Most commercially purchased disposable fiberglass air filters are only 7% efficient in stopping dust, pollen and mold spores leaving 93% to pass into your air conditioner and air duds. This cool, dark, moist environment provides the perfect breeding ground for bacteria and fungus.
Simply turning on your air
conditioner propels a whirlwind of microscopic organisms into every room of
your home. BoAir® Electrostatic -Air filters from Tri-State Air & Heating

Indoor Air Quality
According to EPA studies, indoor air is up to 70 times more polluted than
outdoor air The EPA ranks poor indoor air quality in the top 5 environmental
problems in the nation these pollutants can make you extremely sick. This is
because the home is closed up and these pollutants recirculate.
There are particles that may be too small to be seen by the naked eye, but large enough to cause problems. Some particles may stain furniture, walls, drapes, and carpet. Some particles coat the inner workings of your heating and cooling equipment, which reduce its efficiency.
Fortunately, indoor air pollution can be reduced through ventilation and air filtration. An effective way to filter out particles in the air you breathe is through an electric air cleaner. This device could capture over 90% of the particles from the air that passes through it.
In addition to the unseen particles in your house, dry air can also cause damage to your home. There are few places on the earth that are drier than the Sahara Desert. Unfortunately, one of them is in your home! The warm, dry air inside your home is similar to a giant sponge that soaks up moisture from everything it comes in contact with the uncomfortable results are:
Clogged sinuses, dry skin, chapped lips, and static shocks
Hardwood floors separate and barristers wobble. Drawers loosen; woodwork and furniture warp and crack as the desert dry indoor air sucks moisture out.
Studies show that during the wintertime, the relative humidity inside the average home is only about 15% The Sahara, on the other hand, carries the average of about 25% humidity. A whole-house humidifier will replenish the moisture in the air in a safe, water vapor form (this means no droplets or mist)

information to consumers on how to get a handle on indoor air quality in their
homes. The goal of the Program is to educate consumers about sources, health
and control measures related to common residential indoor air problems and to
help consumers’ reduce their health risks from these problems. Check out some
