Introduction to Respiratory Health
Respiratory health is deeply connected to the quality of the air we breathe every day, especially within our homes and workplaces. Since most people spend a significant portion of their lives indoors, the state of indoor air quality can have a profound impact on overall well-being. When indoor air is compromised by pollutants, it can lead to a range of health issues—from mild respiratory discomfort and allergies to more serious problems caused by the spread of airborne pathogens.
Several factors contribute to poor indoor air quality. Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) released from household products, building materials, and cleaning agents can linger in the air, affecting both comfort and health. Mold spores thrive in damp environments and can trigger allergic reactions or respiratory symptoms, especially in sensitive individuals. Airborne particles such as dust, pollen, and pet dander further degrade air quality, making it harder to breathe easily. The presence of these contaminants not only affects comfort but can also facilitate the spread of bacteria and viruses throughout your living or working space.
Understanding the range of factors that influence indoor air quality is the first step toward creating a healthier environment. By addressing sources of airborne particles, mold, and VOCs, you can significantly improve the air you breathe and support better respiratory health for everyone in your space.
How Our Respiratory Health Air System Works In Somerset County
A respiratory health air system in Somerset County is typically configured to address the complete indoor environment. This may include whole-home or whole-building air purification, upgraded filtration matched to your existing equipment, and optional central vacuum integration to reduce dust at the source. A key component of these systems is the air purification device, which can be integrated into your HVAC system or used as a standalone unit to improve air quality.
ActivePure® Technology operates through a process called Advanced Photohydrolysis. This technology produces molecules that move through the indoor space and interact with contaminants in the air and on exposed surfaces. Unlike filters that wait for particles to pass through, this approach is designed to treat the environment where you breathe and work.
Aerus systems are designed to complement existing HVAC equipment in homes, schools, offices, shops, salons, and small commercial spaces throughout Somerset County. System design is tailored based on room sizes, occupancy levels, and whether your property uses forced air, heat pumps, or ductless mini-splits.

Air Filter Options
Choosing the right air filter is essential for maintaining high indoor air quality and protecting your respiratory health. Air filters are designed to capture and remove airborne particles, pollutants, and allergens from the air, making your living or working environment safer and more comfortable. There is a wide range of air filter options available, each with its own set of benefits and considerations.
HEPA (High-Efficiency Particulate Air) filters are among the most effective at trapping fine particles such as dust, pollen, and mold spores, making them a popular choice for those seeking to reduce allergens and airborne contaminants. Activated carbon filters excel at removing odors and volatile organic compounds (VOCs), helping to neutralize smoke, cooking smells, and chemical fumes. Ultraviolet (UV) light filters add another layer of protection by targeting bacteria and viruses, reducing the risk of airborne pathogens spreading through your indoor air.
When selecting an air filter, it’s important to consider the size of your space, the specific pollutants you want to address, and your overall system requirements. Some filters are better suited for larger areas or higher concentrations of particulates, while others are designed for targeted use in smaller rooms. The right filter not only improves air quality but also ensures your system operates efficiently, helping you breathe easier and enjoy the full benefits of a cleaner indoor environment.
