Shelter in Place has made us closer together. Having your family safe and in one place can offer a sense of security. If your ventilation system isn’t in a healthy state it could do more harm than good.

Rodney Jackson HVAC LLC supports expanded research by the World Health Organization and the CDC to fully understand how coronavirus is transmitted, what we do know is that a healthy air flow or ventilation is part of the solution. Cleaning the air within the room and ensuring good ventilation is the best protection for occupants from exposure to the virus, in particular in relation to airborne particles that might be circulated by HVAC systems.”

One of the ways to stop the spread of Coronavirus is via Air humidification. According to Dr. Walter Hugentobler, Air humidification acts in a proactive way to combat the spread of viruses by infected people, including so-called super spreaders, even before any symptoms appear or a diagnosis can be made. Additionally, the respiratory tract’s defenses are improved in all people due to the more efficient cleaning of the airways and enhanced immune defenses. Raising air humidity by humidification reduces the risk of virus spread in hospitals and other buildings at low-cost and without causing negative effects,”

“It is not possible for humans to control the outdoor climatic conditions which have allowed this coronavirus to cross species boundaries. However, we are able to manage the indoor environment to support our health and reduce viral disease by regulating critical indoor air factors such as temperature, humidity, air exchange rate and fresh air content. When we maintain indoor temperatures at 20 to 24°C for comfort, it is essential that we decrease our risk of infection by maintaining healthy levels of air humidity and ventilation.
