Recirculating HVAC air is a risky proposition. The rudimentary air filters within heating and cooling systems were never designed to capture ultra-fine particulates nor airborne pathogens. Filters in forced air systems can only capture coarse debris, like dust, insects, etc. Unless you setup systems to bring in fresh air (from the outside) into a space, you can unwittingly increase the risk of transmission.

One of the most effective ways to combat the risk of a viral load in an indoor space is to use medical-grade, air purification systems like the Airgle AG600 or AG900 purifiers, which possess a 0.003 micron HEPA filter and a titanium module, which houses a powerful UVC element. This is the industry leader and we've helped countless professional businesses protect their livelihood.

It is a fallacy to believe that COVID infections occur solely from close, person-to-person contact and/or by inhaling expelled viral droplets from people nearby. Evidence is emerging, showing that large, infected droplets produced by exhaling, coughing or sneezing, could become much smaller, microscopic droplets. Once in this aerosolized form, SARS-CoV-2 could easily be carried longer distances via air currents.

Francesca Dominici, a Harvard biostatistics professor and the study’s senior author - “If you’re getting COVID, and you have been breathing polluted air, it’s really putting gasoline on a fire,” Fine particles pe*****te deep into the body, promoting hypertension, heart disease, breathing trouble, and diabetes, all of which increase complications in coronavirus patients. The particles also weaken the immune system and fuel inflammation in the lungs and respiratory tract, adding to the risk both of getting COVID-19 and of having severe symptoms.
