Last week, I was watching late night television and going through the channels.
- I was surprised to see an infomercial that was about our local HVAC company.
I knew the technician that was discussing airflow in the home and the HVAC system. He said that good airflow was necessary if you wanted your furnace and air conditioning unit to work properly and efficiently. Without good airflow in the house, he said that your home’s breathing air could become sick. I had never heard of your breathing air becoming sick, so I continued to listen. It didn’t take long before he got into the big sales pitch. The HVAC company was doing a pitch for their full home air purification systems. I had heard about whole home air purification systems before. When the pandemic was at its worst, that’s one of the things they were pushing. They said that a whole home air purification system could clean your air, and help to get rid of germs and bacteria. Had I wanted people to come into my house and had I had the money, I probably would’ve bought one back then, but I didn’t. I really wanted to hear more about airflow, and how it can affect my HVAC system. Later on in the infomercial, they got back to airflow but it was a very small blurb. They were talking about having your ductwork cleaned and making sure the air filters were cleaned in your furnace and air conditioning unit at all times. For me, it was a waste of time but I’m sure other people may have gotten some interesting information from it.
