Clean Air I thought pollution was outside. Why should I be worried about my air indoors? We spend 90% of our time every day indoors. Plus, today’s efficient, airtight homes are excellent at conserving energy, but that also makes them better at trapping potentially irritating particles inside the home. With the rising number of people who suffer from allergies and asthma, indoor air quality has become more and more important to our general health and well-being. What kinds of things are in my home air that might be affecting my family’s health and comfort? A wide range of particulate matter can be in your home’s air, including: • Dust • Animal hair and dander • Mold spores • Smoke • Bacteria • Pollen • Dust mites • Lint • Cooking grease What does Clean Air Delivery Rate (CADR) mean? Clean Air Delivery Rate (CADR) is recognized by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) and Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) as a fair and objective measure of various air cleaner technologies. CADR provides the number of cubic feet of clean air a unit delivers each minute. A higher CADR means a greater amount of clean air is being delivered to your home. I keep my home very clean. Could the air in my home still not be clean? Yes. Consider that the average home generates 40 pounds of dust for every 1500 square feet of space. While regular home cleaning is an excellent measure to reduce exposure to irritants and pollutants, it’s simply impossible to remove enough of the material by hand to make your home’s air as comfortable as it can be. What can Trane do to help make my home’s air cleaner? The best thing you can do is to remove as many of the particles from your home’s air as you can. That’s why we’ve introduced the revolutionary Trane CleanEffects™ air filtration system. It works as part of your total home comfort system to remove up to an industry-leading 99.98% of the airborne allergens from your home’s filtered air. There is no other system you can buy that matches the effectiveness of Trane CleanEffects. How is Trane CleanEffects™ different from the air cleaners I see advertised? No other air filter can even come close to the effectiveness of a Trane CleanEffects™ Take a look at this table and see: Trane CleanEffects also generates a minimal amount of ozone, less than 5 PPB (parts per billion), well below the 10 PPB FDA voluntary emission limit for medical devices and significantly below some ionic-type room appliances that may reach hundreds of PPBs. Also, since the unit is not typically placed in your home’s living areas like room-size cleaners are, there is no annoying noise that can make it difficult for you to relax. Getting Started Why is a matched system so important? A matched system is important for a variety of reasons. One is comfort. When all your components are properly sized to your home, you can control exactly how much heating or cooling you need so you can relax. Also, a properly sized matched system enables every component to perform as designed, meaning proper cycle times are maintained, humidity is controlled, and system sound is minimized. Another reason matched systems are important is efficiency.
