Air Filtration and Duct Services in Albuquerque
Clean air starts with a clean system. Albuquerque's dusty desert environment means your HVAC ductwork and filtration system work harder than in most parts of the country. Over time, dust, pollen, pet dander, and other contaminants accumulate in your system and get recirculated throughout your home every time your heating or cooling runs.
At MGP Mechanical, we offer air filtration solutions and duct services that improve your home's air quality and help your HVAC system run more efficiently.
Whole-Home Filtration Upgrades
Standard 1-inch furnace filters catch large particles but let smaller allergens and contaminants pass right through. Upgrading to a whole-home air filtration system dramatically improves the quality of air circulating through your home. We install Carrier air purifiers that integrate with your existing HVAC system, as well as the REME HALO active air purification system that sends purifying molecules into every room.
For homes with persistent air quality concerns, combining enhanced filtration with active purification provides the most comprehensive protection available.
The Importance of Clean Ductwork
Your ductwork is the highway system for air throughout your home. When ducts accumulate significant buildup, it restricts airflow, forces your system to work harder, and circulates contaminants with every cycle. Signs that your ductwork needs attention include visible dust blowing from vents when the system kicks on, increased allergy symptoms indoors, musty odors when the HVAC runs, and uneven airflow between rooms.
Duct Sealing
Leaky ductwork can waste 20 to 30 percent of the conditioned air your system produces. Ducts that run through unconditioned spaces like attics and crawl spaces are especially prone to leaks at joints and connections. Sealing these leaks is one of the most cost-effective upgrades you can make — it improves comfort, reduces energy bills, and helps your air filtration system work more effectively.
Filter Maintenance
The simplest thing you can do for your indoor air quality is change your HVAC filter regularly. In Albuquerque, we recommend every 30 to 60 days — more frequently during cottonwood season (May through June) and wildfire smoke events. A clean filter is the foundation that everything else builds on.
