Home comfort
Your furnace and air conditioner move all the air in your house several times an hour. We make sure what comes out of the vents is clean, comfortable and the right humidity.
Static shocks, dry skin, cracked lips and gaps opening in wood floors and trim are classic signs of low winter humidity.
If you dust on Saturday and it's back by Tuesday, your filtration isn't catching much.
Pollen, pet dander and dust circulate through the ductwork when filters are cheap, clogged or bypassed.
Odors when the system kicks on can come from the indoor coil, a dirty drain pan or the ductwork.
Too much moisture can be as much of a problem as too little, and it shows up on cold windows first.
Everything here works with your existing furnace or air handler.

Humidifiers mounted on the furnace that add moisture to every room during our dry Minnesota and Wisconsin winters.
Whole-home air cleaners that capture fine particles as air passes through the system, not just in one room.
UV lamps installed near the indoor coil to keep mold and bacteria from growing on wet surfaces.
Cleaning for ductwork after a remodel, a pest problem or years of buildup, plus repair of leaky or disconnected runs.
Testing to see what's actually in your air before recommending equipment, so you're not buying a fix for the wrong problem.
Air quality problems have specific causes. Matching the fix to the cause is the difference between equipment that helps and equipment that just adds a maintenance chore.
In our climate the biggest one is humidity. Cold winter air holds very little moisture, so once it's heated indoors the house dries out. In summer the opposite happens, and an oversized air conditioner can cool the house without pulling enough moisture out.
Dust, dander and pollen come in through doors, windows and leaky return ducts. A filter that's too restrictive or poorly sealed lets air bypass it entirely.
A better filter cabinet is usually the first step and solves a lot on its own. A whole house humidifier is the fix for dry winter air. UV lights target growth on the indoor coil. Air purifiers make sense when someone in the house has allergies or asthma and better filtration isn't enough.
We'll tell you which of these is worth doing in your house, and which isn't.
We look at your furnace or air handler, the filter setup, the return ductwork and the indoor coil, and ask what you're noticing and where. If testing makes sense, we'll recommend it. Most add-ons install in a few hours without changing your existing system.
Cost depends on the equipment, whether your furnace has room for it, and whether a humidifier needs a water line and drain run to it. Ongoing costs like filters, humidifier pads and UV bulbs are worth factoring in, and we'll go over those too.

Lower than you might think when it's very cold outside. Too much humidity condenses on windows and inside walls. A whole house humidifier with an outdoor-temperature control adjusts for that automatically.
For most homes, a properly sealed media filter cabinet makes the biggest difference for the money. Whole-home air purifiers are worth considering when allergies or asthma are a concern.
Not on a fixed schedule. It's worth doing after major remodeling, signs of pests or visible buildup in the registers and returns. We'll take a look and tell you honestly whether it's needed.
Yes. Filtration, humidifiers, air cleaners and UV lights all install on your current system, whatever the brand.
