Home Air Quality

Clean indoor air can prevent many environmental health hazards.

At ENTEK, we assess your home;
not just your furnace.

As our homes become more energy efficient, it is more important than ever that home air quality and ventilation issues be properly assessed by a trained and certified HVAC professional to avoid the potential negative effects on your health, comfort and your homes energy efficiency.

It is extremely important to hire an air conditioning repair contractor that understands the delicate balance between air leaks, sealing, ventilation and air quality. Air sealing techniques can work wonders to reduce air leakage and cut down on energy waste. But it can also seal your home up to the point where contaminants with known health effects such as formaldehyde, volatile organic compounds, and radon are sealed into your house. And proper ventilation is vital for comfort but it also helps control moisture, which can lead to mold growth and structural damage.

Our Air Quality Experts can help your indoor air quality to:

Improve comfort
Reduce dust
Reduce allergens
Improve health
Reduce air borne contaminants
Increase energy efficiency
Reduce utility costs
 

At Entek, we know how important it is that the air you and your family breathe at home is as clean as possible.
But indoor air is naturally full of allergens, contaminates, and more that you might not be aware of. And once it’s inside, your HVAC unit can circulate that air filled with pollen, dust, germs, chemicals, mold, and pet dander round and round your home for everyone to breathe. It doesn’t, however, have to be like this. A whole-house purifier can remove all of this and more from the air circulating through your home.
Entek has partnered with PREMIERone to bring the best air quality possible to Portland- and Vancouver-area homes. PREMIERone whole-house purifiers use ultraviolet germicidal light (UVC) technology. UVC is trusted by hospitals to eliminate germs and allergens from the air patients and staff breathe, and through Entek, this technology is available to your home.

Indoor Air Contaminants:

Dust and allergens can cause chronic problems with sinus issues, headaches and allergy symptoms. But other contaminants pose more serious problems. Formaldyhede, volatile organic compounds and radon can cause serious health problems. This can vary from various symptoms and illness to cancer. Radon is connected to some forms of cancer. The Environmental Protection Agency has recently updated the map showing locations for the highest concentrations of radon in our area.
