Choose GENERALAire For Capacity, Efficiency And Ease Of Installation And Service

High Capacity.

A glance at the comparison charts shows that GENERALAire humidifiers are among the highest capacity units available. The Model 1137 will add over 21 gallons of moisture to the air each day enough to humidify a 3,000+ sq. ft. home.

Outstanding Performance.

Thanks to a patented water trough design, GENERALAire humidifiers are the most efficient on the market. GENERALAire's Model 1042-LH, for example, uses just 3.5 gallons of water per hour compared to 6 gallons per hour for competitive models with the same capacity. Reduced water usage means lower operating costs.

Simple Installation And Service.

There's a GENERALAire humidifier to fit any heating system, including heat pumps. And, GENERALAire humidifiers come with most everything needed for a good installation, so there are not a lot of extra parts to buy. Service is easy, too, because most service items are external so you rarely have to completely dismantle the unit.

Air Cleaners Add To Homeowners Comfort And Your Bottom Line

Dust, pollen, mold spores, bacteria, animal dander, smoke and soot turn the air inside "Home, Sweet Home" into anything but. Adding an air cleaner to a central forced air system eliminates these microscopic pests for a cleaner, healthier home environment. Explaining to the homeowner how cleaner air will increase his comfort is a great way to increase your bottom line.

Measuring Performance

While there are many types of air cleaners on the market electronic, electrostatic filters, pleated filters and high efficiency media cleaners there are just three important factors for you and the homeowner to consider when selecting an air cleaner: air flow resistance, dust arrestance, and average dust spot efficiency. Each of these factors is described in standards adopted by the American Society of Heating, Refrigeration and Air conditioning Engineers. Importantly, all of them are measured over time since a clean filtering media will perform differently than one that's fully loaded.

Choose GENERALAire Air Cleaners For Total Air Quality Performance

GENERALAire's AC-1 Air Cleaner has the lowest air flow resistance of any unit on the market thanks to its unique filtering media. Even after a year of use, GENERALAire's AC-1 puts little strain on the air delivery system. The scaled down GENERALAire AC-4 Air Cleaner for smaller furnaces offers comparable performance.

Dust Arrestance.

Measured as the percentage of test dust introduced into the air stream that's captured by the filtering media, the AC-1's 97% dust arrestance is among the highest of any comparably sized competing unit. The AC-4 is rated at 99% dust arrestance. Both the AC-1 and AC-4 capture particles as small as .01 micron.

Average Dust Spot Efficiency.

A measure of the amount of contaminants removed from the air stream over time, the AC-1 has one the highest ratings available at 75%. Many pleated media filters achieve only 25% to 30% ratings and electrostatic cleaners are often below 20% with a final high air flow resistance. The smaller AC-4 is rated at 57% average dust spot efficiency.
