How Much Does a Whole-House Air Cleaner Cost?
According to studies conducted by the Environmental Protection Agency, contaminant levels found inside the average home are often five to nine times higher than those found outdoors. A whole-house air cleaner works to reduce indoor pollutants by up to 99%, and they are most often installed within the return duct line as part of the central HVAC system. Depending on the type of filtration system you choose, a whole-house air cleaner can range in price from around $1,000 to upwards of $5,000 or more, with a national average price of around $1,900.
Benefits of Cleaner Indoor Air
Regardless of how often or how well you clean, tiny particulates such as pet dander, pollen, dust, and fumes can linger in the air and on surfaces throughout your home. Those who suffer from allergies or asthma may feel the effects of these unwanted contaminants, including increased respiratory illnesses, dry nasal passages, headaches, fatigue, nasal congestion, and more. A whole-house air cleaner is an investment toward the health and safety of your family, and when you consider that most Americans spend 75% or more of their time at home, the benefits of this technology become clear:
- Less cleaning. Dust is comprised of various components from dead skin cells to cloth fibers, and over time will settle on the surfaces in your home. With a whole-house air cleaner, you can extend the time in between cleaning because much of the dust that is created will be trapped within the system before it can recirculate.
- Fewer odors. Airborne particles generated during cooking, smoking, or other activities can linger in the environment for hours or days afterward and leave your home smelling stale or unpleasant. By trapping these particles, a whole-house air cleaner can eliminate most odors quickly and leave your home smelling fresh.
- Healthier air. Air cleaners provide year-round relief from pollutants, contaminants, and bacteria that can cause health issues or trigger symptoms in those who suffer from asthma or allergies.
- Prolonged life span of your HVAC system. An HVAC system that is clean and well maintained will last longer than one that is dirty or has been neglected. Contaminants that are allowed to circulate and settle within the filter and on system components can force your equipment to work harder than necessary and cause unnecessary wear and tear that can lead to premature system failure.
