Indoor Air Quality FAQs

Continue reading for some of our customers’ most common questions about indoor air quality in Riviera Beach and the nearby cities in Florida.

 

What type of air filtration system should I get?

Keep an eye out for the Minimum Efficiency Reporting Value (MERV) rating, which determines a filter’s ability to capture harmful particles and toxins. A typical MERV rating is around an 8 but can go up to 13 and beyond. The higher the rating, the more effective John C. Cassidy Air Conditioning & Plumbing can expertly determine the appropriate MERV rating for your home or business.

How often should I change my air filter?

Check your filter at least monthly and clean and replace as needed. A dirty air filter limits airflow, which can cause the compressor to run longer, cause the heat exchanger to overheat and increase utility bills by up to 20 percent or more.

Should I be concerned about indoor air quality?

Your heating and cooling system likely has some built-in features which do help improve your indoor air quality and comfort. For example, air conditioning units can dehumidify your space. However, especially in a place like Riviera Beach, indoor air quality may need to be improved additionally with other devices like air filters, purification systems, UV lights, and more. 

In Florida in particular, our homes are susceptible to mold due to the humidity and moisture present throughout the year. That mold can cause respiratory problems, especially for those with sensitivities like allergies or asthma. Key additions to your HVAC system can improve the breathability of your home’s air and reduce health risks for your family.

What does UV light do?

When it comes to in-home air purification, ultraviolet light serves an understated but important purpose. John C. Cassidy Air Conditioning & Plumbing is proud to sell and install Platinum PCO, an advanced whole-house air purifier that combines UV-C light and carbon cells to eliminate odors, toxins, and allergens using photocatalytic oxidation.

Platinum PCO installs directly onto your central air system to purify and circulate air across your entire home. There are many different Platinum PCO systems, so there’s sure to be one that fits your home's central air system.

Why are dehumidifiers important?

Dehumidifiers are incredibly important for keeping your space cool and clean, especially in humid places like Florida. Leaving moisture unchecked in your home can lead to unwanted growth, which can lead to increases in allergens. Dehumidification is a critical part of ensuring that your space remains cool, clean, and dry.

Dehumidifiers do just as much as air conditioners when it comes to comfort cooling. A home interior with a temperature of 67 degrees but a high humidity level will feel stickier and much less comfortable than a home interior of 78 degrees with low humidity.
