What You Can't See, Can Hurt You.  It's a fact: the trapped air we breathe in our homes can be loaded with dust, pollen, spores and other pollutant particles. In many cases, it's worse than the air outside. Especially if you are the one of the more than 40 million allergy sufferers in North America. Combine that with the fact that we spend 90% of our time inside and indoor air quality becomes a major concern. The standard throwaway filter or electrostatic filter in your furnace traps only about 15% of the pollutant particles in your home's air. The rest circulate throughout your home.

Allergy suffers are especially vulnerable.  Hay fever and seasonal allergies can ruin a person's quality of life, forcing sufferers to take a regimen of drugs just to control the effects of pollen on their system.  Attacks can be triggered by breathing pollen, respirable dust, molds, spores or pet danger.  Some of these particles can be as small as half of one micron in size - too small to be caught by 1-inch disposable furnace filters.

Heating and Cooling equipment also suffers.  So do your energy bills.  A standard 1-inch furnace filter - the kind you replace monthly - has one primary function; to keep large objects from damaging heating and cooling equipment.  That means dust and dirt will accumulate on the furnace (or heat pump) and air conditioning coil.  This accumulation makes your system less efficient, leading to potential increases in your energy bills and maintenance costs.  It also provides the perfect environment for mold growth.  Even so-called "high efficiency" 1-inch thick filters have limited cleaning abilities.  They fit loosely in the positioning slot, so dirty air just goes around them.  And they still have to be changed every month to avoid reduced performance.

Aprilaire Air Cleaner: The Perfect Solution. 

Installed in your heating / cooling duct system, central air cleaners with sophisticated filtering capabilities have become the accepted way to improve indoor air quality. The Aprilaire high efficiency air cleaner has proven to be the perfect solution for whole house use. Absolutely silent operation, minimal maintenance and 99% efficiency on pollen and spores, has made Aprilaire the clean air choice throughout North America.

• Cleans the air in the whole home - All Aprilaire Air Cleaners treat all the air in the home, every time it circulates.  You'd have to put a portable room air cleaner in every room to match that kind of performance.  You can even get 24 hour air-cleaning from your Aprilaire by setting your thermostat to run the fan continuously.
  
  

• Provides long service life -  Our disposable filter media will last 1 to 2 years, depending on the amount of blower operation.  We accomplish this by using over 72 square feet of media, compared to just 2.3 square feet used in the typical 1-inch filter.
  
  

• Enhances equipment life - All Aprilaire Air Cleaners keep dust and dirt from reaching your heating and cooling equipment, allowing it to perform at peak efficiency for the entire life of the filtering media, reducing your maintenance costs.
  
  

• Built to last - Modern heating and cooling equipment is designed to last a long time.  All Aprilaire Air Cleaners are designed to match that quality, delivering the same high performance year after year.
  
  

•  Operates invisibly, silently - All Aprilaire Air Cleaners are installed with your heating and cooling equipment, out of sight. Unlike portable room air cleaners, Aprilaire Air Cleaners do not become pieces of furniture in your house.  And they operate silently with no annoying hums or crackling sounds.
