Why You Need an Air Filtration System
As previously mentioned, the air in your home is probably not nearly as clean as you think. Of the millions of microscopic particles that are commonly found inside a home’s air, a number of them are harmful. Dust, pollen, mites, insect and pet dander are all both allergens and lung irritants. On top of that, viruses, bacteria, and mold are infectious agents that can cause illness. All of these particles are dispersed throughout the air you breathe. If you want to improve your air quality by getting rid of them, you’re going to need an air filtration system.

Types of Air Filtration Systems
So what are air filtration systems, exactly? Well, air filters are devices that make use of a woven mesh to strain particles out of the air. As air flows through this mesh, any contaminants it carries become snared in the fibers. The air is allowed to flow through the filter unimpeded, while any contaminants are left trapped in the filter.
There many different levels of air filter, as determined by the MERV system. MERV stands for Minimum Efficiency Reporting Value. The higher the MERV rating, the smaller the contaminants that the filter can capture. A rating of up to 10 or 12 is common in homes. Filters with a rating beyond that tend to be too tightly woven for home forced air systems to handle, and are typically used in hospitals and other clean environments.

Really impressed with the team, their quality of work, and their attention to detail. They installed a mini split system for us—the units look great, and the team finished ahead of schedule. Would 100% recommend

We loved working with Roadrunner and Steve! They were professional, showed up when they said they would, did the work for the price quoted and have been great about follow up. One of the things that Steve does that makes him stand out is … More to help folks with the forms that need to be filed for the tax rebates from both the State and the Federal government. The owner has to fill them out but Steve talks you thru what you will need and shows you things in detail.
Plus he is great in his "final close out" visit and shows you the ins and outs of the systems. I would highly recommend using Roadrunner and Steve!

These guys were AMAZING! Good communication, on time, polite, professional, respectful, went out of their way to be sure things were clean each day when they left. We had to have two units completely replaced and they did an amazing job. … More Took the time to walk through using the system with me. Had five companies come to us in Rio Rancho and Roadrunner had by far the best price. Highly, highly recommend.

We Install and Service Air Filtration Systems
In order to get the maximum effect from air filtration, it’s a good idea to install a whole–house air filtration system. The filter is installed in your home’s ductwork, often in the air return duct for your heater and air conditioner. This allows it to filter all air being circulated around the house, making it that much easier to improve your indoor air quality. The kind of air filter you use should fit your specific situation. For that reason, and because you shouldn’t be crawling around in your ducts if you don’t know what you’re doing, you should give us a call. We’ll help you select the air filter that best fits your indoor air quality needs, then install it for you. We also service air filtration systems, cleaning or replacing them as needed, to make sure that your home’s indoor air quality remains high. Call us today to schedule an appointment.
