Air Purifiers

What Is The Lennox PureAir System?

It's a whole home air purification system that filters and purifies simultaneously.

• Hospital-Grade Filtration: The Carbon Clean 16 filter provides MERV 16 efficiency, capturing over 99% of dust, pollen, mold spores, and pet dander. It removes 95% of fine particles down to 0.3 microns and 90% of bacteria and viruses down to 0.01 microns, including the virus that causes COVID-19.
• Photocatalytic Oxidation Technology: A UVA lamp activates a titanium dioxide catalyst that breaks down chemical vapors and odors into harmless compounds. This process destroys volatile organic compounds from cleaning supplies, cooking fumes, paints, and pet odors rather than just trapping them in a filter.
• Three Pollutants, One System: Most air cleaners address only particles, only germs, or only odors. PureAir handles all three simultaneously. It filters particles through the MERV 16 media, kills germs with the UVA lamp, and destroys chemical vapors through oxidation in a single integrated cabinet.
• No Ozone Production: Unlike many electronic air cleaners and some UV systems, PureAir produces zero ozone. In fact, its carbon filtration actively removes existing ozone from your home. This matters because ozone is a known lung irritant that can trigger breathing problems, especially for people with asthma.
• Whole Home Coverage: Single-room air purifiers clean one space while pollutants circulate everywhere else. PureAir installs in your return ductwork and treats all the air moving through your HVAC system, providing clean air to every room in your home with every heating and cooling cycle.

Air Purifier FAQs

How Much Does A Lennox PureAir System Cost?

Most homeowners invest $1,200 to $2,500 for equipment and professional installation.

• Equipment Cost: The PureAir unit itself runs $1,000 to $1,800 depending on the model and features. The PureAir S with smart monitoring costs more than the standard Healthy Climate PureAir. Both provide the same hospital-grade filtration and purification, but the S model includes sensors that track filter life.
• Professional Installation: Labor adds $400 to $700 to your total investment. We integrate the unit into your return ductwork, install the UVA lamp and PCO cartridge, connect electrical service, and verify proper airflow. The system works with any brand of HVAC equipment, not just Lennox.
• Annual Maintenance Kit: You'll spend $200 to $300 yearly for the replacement kit that includes the MERV 16 filter, PCO cartridge, and UVA lamp. These components work together and should be replaced at the same time. We handle this during your annual maintenance visit.
• Operating Costs: The system uses minimal electricity to run the UVA lamp and fan. Most homeowners see $10 to $20 added monthly to their energy bills. The exact cost depends on how often your HVAC system runs and your local electricity rates.
• Value For Louisiana Homes: Our extended pollen season from February through November means allergens are constantly entering your home. The investment pays off through fewer allergy symptoms, less dust accumulation, elimination of musty odors common in humid climates, and protection against mold spores that thrive here.

What's The Difference Between PureAir & Standard Filters?

PureAir actively destroys pollutants while standard filters only trap some particles.

• Filtration Efficiency: Standard 1-inch filters typically rate MERV 8 or lower and capture about 20% of particles. PureAir's MERV 16 filter removes 99.9% of particles, including mold spores, pollen, dust, and pet dander. It captures particles 40 times smaller than standard filters can trap.
• Bacteria & Virus Protection: Standard filters cannot capture viruses and bacteria because these microorganisms are too small. The EPA and CDC state you need MERV 13 or higher for germ filtration. PureAir's MERV 16 rating plus its UVA lamp kills 90% of bacteria and viruses.
• Chemical Vapor Removal: No filter, regardless of MERV rating, removes chemical vapors and odors from the air. Filters only trap particles. PureAir's photocatalytic oxidation technology breaks down volatile organic compounds from cooking, cleaning products, paints, and pets, eliminating odors at the molecular level.
• Airflow Resistance: Higher MERV filters typically restrict airflow, making your HVAC system work harder. PureAir's Carbon Clean 16 filter is engineered with the lowest airflow resistance of any MERV 16 filter, so it cleans thoroughly without straining your equipment.
• Maintenance Requirements: Standard filters need monthly replacement. PureAir's complete maintenance kit lasts one full year. We replace everything during your annual service visit. One replacement per year versus twelve makes PureAir more convenient despite the higher component cost.
