To beat the Texas summer heat, look no further than a central AC system. The right size system will efficiently cool your home by transferring heat via a pair of coils. The benefits of a central AC system, however, go beyond cooling.
Cleaner Air
Indoor air is oftentimes more polluted than outdoor air. According to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), levels of organic air pollutants are two to five times higher inside homes.
You may not notice it, but the air inside your home probably contains a lot of dust, pollen, and other pollutants.
Your central AC system helps clean the air in your home. Your central AC systems will pull the air in your home through ductwork.
Before entering the ductwork, air must pass through a filter which will automatically remove pollutants from the air, resulting in a cleaner living space for you and your family.
Less Humid Air
In addition to cleaning the air, a central AC system will dehumidify the air in your home. All central AC systems dehumidify. Dehumidification occurs naturally thanks to the heat-transfer mechanics of central AC systems.
A central AC system will cool your home by transferring heat from the indoors to the outdoors. A coil will absorb heat from the hot, stagnant air inside of your home.
As it absorbs heat, moisture vapor will condense on the coil before dripping down into a pan. The indoor coil will essentially dehumidify the air in your home.
Less Opportunity For Mold and Mildew
Mold and mildew typically only grow in humid environments. Most varieties of mold and mildew require a relative humidity level of at least 55% to grow.
Because of its ability to dehumidify, a central AC system will discourage mold and mildew from growing inside of your home.
