What is MERV? Filter efficiency explained.
MERV ratings measure air filter efficiency, showing how well filters trap particles and debris. Higher ratings mean better particle trapping, from dust to viruses. HEPA filters excel at removing 0.3-micron particles, but even they have a weakness for slightly smaller ones. Upgrading to HEPA requires HVAC system adjustments.

The indoor air you breathe.
Our homes, meant to be safe havens, often contain unseen pollutants. VOCs from new furniture, tiny particles from smoke, biological contaminants like mold, and combustion byproducts all affect indoor air quality. AEIRO’s ionization technology combats these by clustering particles for easier filtration, improving overall air cleanliness.

Understanding air quality & particle pollution.
Air pollution, a “silent public health emergency,” comprises harmful substances in the air. This article examines US air quality, focusing on particulate matter (PM), its sources, health risks, and indoor reduction strategies. PM, tiny particles like dust and soot, poses significant health threats, especially for vulnerable groups. Understanding the Air Quality Index (AQI) and minimizing…
