Comprehensive IAQ Solutions
1. Particles & Allergens
Central Texas dust and pollen make indoor air feel heavy. Basic filters often miss the fine particles that trigger allergies. Our filtration upgrades capture more of what moves through your system so less settles around your home. When needed, we also clean and seal ductwork to stop dust from entering the air stream. The result is cleaner air and fewer irritants circulating from room to room.
2. Germs & Infectious Agents
Moisture, warm air, and dark spaces inside an HVAC system create ideal conditions for bacteria, mold spores, and other microbes. We install UV-C lights in key areas of your equipment to interrupt their growth and keep air moving through the system cleaner.
3. Chemical Gases & Odors
Many everyday products release chemical fumes and lingering odors that standard filters cannot capture. We install purification systems that use activated carbon and other technologies to reduce these gases as they pass through your HVAC system. We can also improve ventilation so stale air leaves your home and fresh air enters in a controlled way. This helps remove persistent smells and creates a fresher indoor environment.
Our Process: Cleaner Air in Three Steps
Assess Your Home’s Air
We begin by taking a close look at the conditions inside your home. This includes checking airflow, identifying common pollutant sources, and reviewing how your HVAC system moves air through each room. Our tech explains what they find in simple terms, so you know exactly what is going on and what needs attention.
Recommend the Right Solutions
Once we understand the issues, we match your home with the best tools for cleaner air. That can include upgraded filtration, UV germicidal light, or purification systems that target allergens, germs, and chemical odors. You’ll see clear options and straightforward pricing so you can choose what fits your goals and budget.
Professional Installation & Care
We install your new IAQ equipment with care and make sure everything works as intended. After setup, we walk you through basic upkeep and show you what to expect from your upgraded system. If you want ongoing support, we can handle maintenance during routine HVAC visits to keep your air clean year-round.
Why Indoor Air Quality Matters
Most people spend about 90% of their time indoors, yet the air inside can be two to five times more polluted than the air outside. Dust, pet dander, mold spores, smoke, and cleaning chemicals build up over time—especially in tightly sealed Austin homes designed to conserve energy.
- Allergy or asthma flare-ups
- Lingering odors or stuffy air
- Headaches or fatigue
- Excess dust on furniture and vents
Improving your indoor air quality isn’t just about comfort, it’s about protecting your health, preserving your HVAC system, and creating a cleaner home environment.

Faq
Common signs include persistent dust, lingering odors, frequent sneezing or coughing indoors, humidity issues, and rooms that feel stuffy even with the AC running. If someone in the home is more comfortable outside than inside, that is also a good indicator that something in your air needs attention.
In Central Texas, dust, pollen, cedar, mold spores, pet dander, and everyday household chemicals often show up in indoor air. Older or leaky ductwork can also pull in insulation fibers, attic dust, and outdoor contaminants.
Filtration removes particles as air passes through your HVAC system. Purification treats the air in different ways, depending on the technology. UV lights target germs. Carbon media captures odors and chemical vapors. Some systems combine both approaches for broader protection.
Yes. Better filtration, sealing duct leaks, and adding a purifier can reduce allergens that trigger symptoms. Many Austin homeowners see improvements during cedar season when their homes have proper filtration and purification in place.
