A new filter will capture dust, pet dander, and germs from your home&rsquo;s air. The filter should be changed each month to help keep your home healthy.<\/p>\n<p>It is also important to consider which air filter meets your needs. There are many different types of filters on the market including those that can trap up to 99.97 percent of particles in your air. These are known as HEPA filters and they offer the best solution for preventing the spread of germs and disease.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Install_Ultraviolet_Lights\"><\/span>Install Ultraviolet Lights<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.galmicheandsons.com\/hvac-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/flu-season-hvac-tips-1.jpg\" alt=\"HVAC Tips for Cold &amp; Flu Season\" width=\"300\" height=\"309\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-2847\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.galmicheandsons.com\/hvac-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/flu-season-hvac-tips-1.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.galmicheandsons.com\/hvac-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/flu-season-hvac-tips-1-291x300.jpg 291w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Ultraviolet lights actually render germs and bacteria harmless by changing them at a cellular level. You can render this season&rsquo;s flu viruses useless by adding a UV light to your home&rsquo;s air ducts, helping to further clean the air in your home.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Control_Indoor_Humidity\"><\/span>Control Indoor Humidity<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>With coughing and sneezing, bacteria and viruses can linger in the dry winter air, which also helps spread cold and flu germs. You can add a humidifier to your HVAC system that will maintain the right amount of moisture in the air, keeping your home or office at optimum humidity levels. Additionally, if you do caught by the cold or flu season, a humidifier can lessen some of the symptoms.<\/p>\n<p>If your system already has this feature, it is wise to have an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.galmicheandsons.com\/residential-heating-cooling.html\">HVAC professional<\/a> do a maintenance check to make sure the system is working properly. Too much humidity in a home can cause mildew and mold.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Increase_Fresh_Air\"><\/span>Increase Fresh Air<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Your heating and cooling system can reduce the quality of air in your home or office, since many HVAC systems just cycle the same air over and over. Therefore, every time you sneeze or cough, those germs will cycle through your indoor space.<\/p>\n<p>Luckily, you can make changes to your HVAC system to increase how much fresh air the system takes in from the outside. By adding clean air into your home with the installation of an energy recovery ventilator, or ERV, you can help reduce the spread of colds and other viruses. This system also helps conserve energy.<\/p>\n<p>Another feature that helps keep air fresh in your HVAC system is adding an air purifier, which actively works to reduce the pollutants in your home, including seasonal flu viruses.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Protect_Yourself_During_the_Cold_and_Flu_Season_in_St_Louis\"><\/span>Protect Yourself During the Cold and Flu Season in St. Louis<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you need help making changes to your HVAC system or have questions about how to ensure your HVAC is working properly, Galmiche &amp; Sons can help.
