“Happy House” –
Your Assurance of Enhanced IAQ
Healthful indoor air (often called indoor air quality or IAQ) is significantly
cleaner than the air in many of today’s homes. It also contains appro-
priate levels of moisture and fresh outside air to aid the health and com-
fort of residents.
Humidification
In cold weather, dry indoor air often makes homes drier than a desert.
Acting like a sponge, the parched air absorbs moisture wherever it can
find it – furniture, plants, pets . . . even people. The result is a variety of
discomforts and problems, including dry skin, stuffy noses, hacky coughs,
sore throats, allergies, damage to furniture and woodwork, wilted plants
and static electricity.
Too much or too little humidity in a home promotes an increase in
bacteria, viruses, fungi, respiratory ailments and other unhealthy
conditions. Skuttle humidifiers restore a home’s relative humidity to a
balanced, healthier, more comfortable 30-to-50 percent range. And
Skuttle makes humidifiers to fit more furnace systems, floor plans and
water types than any other manufacturer.
Filtration
Your body’s respiratory system is designed to filter out airborne particles
that are three-to-five microns in diameter. Smaller particles can be
inhaled, potentially causing serious health problems. The smallest
contaminants (a single micron or less) are dispersed through HVAC
ductwork and make up about 99 percent of the particles circulating
throughout a typical home.
Skuttle duct-mounted air cleaners capture most of these contaminants in
a deep-pleated filter which traps far more particulates over a longer
period than standard, flat-filter designs. The results are cleaner indoor air,
longer filter life, longer furnace life and a healthier living environment.
