Achieving a Healthy Home environment should be a top priority for families, homebuyers, home builders, and the like. “Air in homes typically gets trapped,” says Brandon Glancy, AprilAire Business Development and Training Manager. “It causes air to become super unhealthy and can wreak havoc on the way you feel, the way you sleep, and even the way you think.”
Whether they’re looking to reduce allergy and asthma symptoms, protect against airborne viruses, or enjoy the life-changing benefits of Healthy Air inside the home, the AprilAire Healthy Air System® is the missing puzzle piece.

All About the Healthy Home Solutions
Fresh Air Ventilation
Let dirty air out of the home and bring fresh, clean air in with AprilAire Whole-House Fresh Air Ventilation
The indoor air can be five times more polluted than the air outside. So, in order to stay well at home, it’s important to make Indoor Air Quality a top priority.
Let dirty air out of the home and bring fresh, clean air in with AprilAire Whole-House Fresh Air Ventilation. It helps dilute and remove contaminants—like airborne viruses, mold spores, allergens, and more—so they can breathe easy at home.
Air Filtration
Now it’s time to purify the air inside the home! With AprilAire Whole-House Air Filtration, including an AprilAire Whole-House Air Purifier and MERV 16 Air Filter, they can decrease airborne contaminants in the home and minimize the family’s risk of allergy symptoms, asthma triggers, and long-term respiratory irritants.
Designed to capture airborne particulates the size of viruses and reduce other contaminants from lingering in the home’s air, air filtration is crucial to keeping the family healthy year-round and protected from seasonal allergy triggers and viruses.
Humidity Control
AprilAire Whole-House Dehumidifiers are for use during the more humid months of the year
Keeping the home’s humidity between 40% and 60% can minimize virus survival rates in addition to helping keep the home protected from the impact of dry or moisture-riddled air. Depending on which they’re looking to combat—dry or moist air—there’s a tailored solution available to help they keep their home healthy!
AprilAire Whole-House Dehumidifiers are for use during the more humid months of the year, as they help protect the house from the dangers of high humidity by stifling mold growth, decreasing allergens such as dust mites, and preserving the home overall.
On the other hand, AprilAire Whole-House Humidifiers are for combating dry air, as they can not only help keep their home feeling warmer but also help lower the survival rates of virus-sized particles that may linger in the air during the colder seasons.
Radon Control
Did they know radon is the #1 cause of lung cancer among nonsmokers and the second leading cause of lung cancer nationwide? In fact, it’s estimated that one in every 15 homes have elevated radon levels—yet, only a fraction of people regularly test for radon outside of buying or selling their homes.
Identify and redirect harmful gas from their home with testing and mitigation solutions from AprilAire.
Temperature and IAQ Control
AprilAire Wi-Fi Programmable Thermostats are the key to year-round comfort in all rooms
AprilAire Wi-Fi Programmable Thermostats are the key to year-round comfort in all rooms. Achieve peak comfort throughout the whole home with AprilAire Thermostats and the Healthy Air App to keep the Healthy Home feeling as comfortable as it looks.

UVC Sanitization

Keep the system running at top efficiency to save money and prevent the coil from becoming a source of bad air quality.
Healthy Home Dos & Don’ts
For an optimal Healthy Home environment, be sure to keep these important factors in mind as the AprilAire Healthy Air System® helps protect the Indoor Air Quality!
DO: Ensure gas, propane, and wood smoke ventilate outdoors
Minimize the source of indoor air pollutants in the home. Forcing these pollutants to ventilate outdoors provides greater Indoor Air Quality for them and their family.
DON’T: Forget to install carbon monoxide and smoke detectors in the home
While AprilAire Whole-House Fresh Air Ventilation will help they maintain a Healthy Home, it’s good to take the necessary precautions and ensure they’re alerted in an emergency situation.
DO: Use Wi-Fi to take control of the home, whenever, wherever
Being able to control the AprilAire Healthy Air System® from the smartphone makes it easier to take control of the Indoor Air Quality whether at home or on the go.
DON’T: Forget regular air purifier maintenance
Help the AprilAire Whole-House Air Purifier perform at its peak. To help promote better Indoor Air Quality, they recommend replacing AprilAire Air Filters every 6–12 months depending on the model. Not sure which air filter they need?
All compatible filters are listed on the inside of the AprilAire Air Purifier cabinet door. Vacuum and dust often, minimize indoor smoke and candle use, and maximize airflow.
DO: Be mindful of the regional humidity
In addition to seasonal humidity, it’s also important to consider the location. A home in Arizona is likely to be drier throughout the year than a home in Florida.
Different regions have different household humidity needs! The local Healthy Air Professional will be able to address the home’s specific needs.
DON’T: Forget to clean or replace the dehumidifier filter or humidifier water panel
AprilAire Whole-House Humidifiers and Dehumidifiers come with specialized filters or water panels that help create a clean, breathable air in the home.
Dirty filters or water panels contribute dirty air to homes and need to be cleaned or replaced. Check the owner’s manual for recommended replacement schedules.
Final Thoughts
No matter where they live, the AprilAire Healthy Air System® provides a tailored approach to help keep the family safe from the dangers of polluted air, healthy during virus or allergy season, and comfortable in the Healthy Home all year long.
