Frequently Asked Questions
What exactly does an air scrubber do in my home’s HVAC system?
An air scrubber attaches to your HVAC system and actively removes airborne particles, contaminants, and pollutants as air circulates through your home. It also helps clean surfaces by reducing bacteria, viruses, and other microorganisms.
How are air scrubbers different from traditional air filters or air purifiers?
Traditional filters only trap particles that pass through them, while air scrubbers actively treat and clean the air and surfaces in your home. They also use advanced technology, such as UV light and catalytic reactions, to neutralize contaminants rather than simply capturing them.
What contaminants can an air scrubber remove from indoor air?
Air scrubbers target dust, pollen, pet dander, mold spores, bacteria, viruses, and VOCs. They also help reduce smoke, odors, and other airborne pollutants.
Can an air scrubber help reduce allergens, odors, or mold in my house?
Yes, air scrubbers are designed to significantly reduce allergens and neutralize household odors. Their ability to target mold spores helps prevent growth and improve overall indoor air quality.
Do all HVAC systems support air scrubber installation or are there compatibility issues?
Most HVAC systems can accommodate an air scrubber, but proper sizing and placement are important for best performance. A professional technician can confirm compatibility and ensure safe, effective installation.
