Indoor Air Quality in Cordova, TN
Why do I need a Second Wind air purifier if I already have a filter?
A filter will address the particulate in the air but does not have an effect on bacteria, odors, and off-gases. The World Health Organization and CDC break indoor air contamination into 3 categories. Particulate which is the dust and dirt introduced into the air is what a filter will remove. Bioaerosols which are living micro-organisms like bacteria and viruses, which can be addressed with ultraviolet germicidal light disinfection. Also, Volatile Organic Compounds like odors, fumes, off-gases, can be neutralized using photo-catalytic oxidation. Second Wind Air Purifiers can enhance an existing filter by addressing things the filter will miss and with our model can address particulate, Bioaerosols and Volatile Organic compounds.

It is also ideal for repairing damaged and leaking air ducts and sealing conditioned spaces from air infiltration. Mildew resistant. Water-based, for easy application and cleanup. Fiber reinforced, high solids content, excellent longevity (actually strengthens with age).
Whole-Home Zoning
Zone Control (2, 3 and 4 Zone Systems.)
Zoned HVAC Saves You Money and Makes You More Comfortable! In most homes, heating and cooling accounts for the largest part of the energy bill. Despite this, most homes waste a tremendous amount of heat and cool air through inefficient use. Efficiency can be significantly improved by only heating or cooling when necessary (ie. when occupants are present) and by only heating/cooling to the exact desired temperature. Home automation and zoned HVAC (heating, ventilation, air-conditioning) can do this for you automatically. You can set different desired temperatures in each room, and by using motion detectors you can automatically turn ON/OFF the heating/cooling to each zone as people enter and leave. The energy savings in the average home over just a few years will often pay for the entire home automation system!
