4 Reasons Your Home Needs a Whole House Air Scrubber

I know you are probably here for holiday home decor, organization, or tips on how to make a house a home. But sometimes the best improvements to the house happen inside the walls. So I wanted to share my experience with getting a whole house Air Scrubber installed with Hoffmann Brothers. My family and I spend A LOT of time at home, so naturally I want to make sure to create a space that is both beautiful and cozy as well as healthy. And if these last couple years have taught me anything, it is the importance of clean air!

What is An Air Scrubber?

An air scrubber is a device that attaches directly to the ductwork of your HVAC system. It removes air pollution, VOCs, surface contaminants, pet dander, odors, bacteria, pathogens and dust using a portable filtration system. It provides a cleaner, healthier and more efficient home. Best part, it is low maintenance and can be installed in a short amount of time.

Why Do You Need an Air Scrubber?

Reduce Contaminants: Did you know the air inside of your home can be 2-5x MORE contaminated than outdoor air? Every day, we bring contaminants from our hands, clothes, and shoes into our homes and let them stay rent free. The Air Scrubber has been proven to destroy up to 99% of all surface contaminants. It also purifies and cleans the air you’re breathing by reducing approximately 90% of airborne contaminants.

Banish Lingering Odors. Have you ever walked into someones house and it just has that unique smell? Well that’s not the first impression I want to give off. And before the installation, the Hoffmann Brothers. rep mentioned I would more than likely notice a change to the overall smell. He said “its hard to describe the change” and it sure is! It smells colder. That is the only way I can describe it. We were driving through the mountains with the windows down. It was cooler temps than we were used to and I said “that’s the smell! The air scrubber makes the air in the house smell like cool mountain air.” My husband of course doesn’t notice a change in the air smell. But that trends.

Extend the Life of your HVAC System: Have you checked out the prices of new units? I will do just about anything to try to keep from having to do that for as long as possible. Dirt, dust and other debris are trapped before it enters the filter potentially damaging the coils and blower over time. So by installing an Air Scrubber on your HVAC system, you’ll be helping to extend the life of your system and keep it running at peak efficiency.

Allergy Sufferers: If you or someone in your family suffers from allergies than you know dust, mold, pollen and other pollutants can cause itchy and watery eyes, sneezing and lack of sleep. This device purifies the air and reduces particles that can irritate allergies and asthma. And all you new transplants in Nashville are probably starting to notice their allergies flaring up. Imagine how much better you will sleep when approximately 90% of airborne contaminants are reduced. Zzzzzzzz.
