Frequently Asked Questions About Indoor Air Quality in Lafayette

For allergies, we typically recommend a combination of high-MERV filtration (MERV-13+) to capture particles, plus air purification to neutralize allergens. The right solution depends on your specific allergy triggers.
Do UV lights in ductwork really work?
Yes! UV-C light effectively kills mold, bacteria, and many viruses. When properly sized and installed, UV systems significantly reduce airborne pathogens circulating through your HVAC system.
