The air inside your home can be 2-5 times more polluted than outdoor air. In Louisiana's humid climate, mold, mildew, and allergens add to the challenge. Latour's HVAC provides indoor air quality solutions that remove pollutants, control humidity, and create a healthier home environment.
Poor indoor air quality can trigger allergies, aggravate asthma, cause headaches, and affect your family's overall health. Our IAQ solutions integrate with your existing HVAC system to continuously clean and condition the air throughout your home.
Indoor Air Quality Solutions We Offer
Whole-Home Air Purifiers
Installed in your ductwork, whole-home air purifiers clean the air every time your HVAC system runs. Unlike portable units that only treat one room, these systems protect your entire home.
- Remove up to 99.9% of airborne particles
- Capture viruses, bacteria, and mold spores
- Reduce allergens like pollen, pet dander, and dust mites
- Eliminate odors and VOCs
UV Germicidal Lights
Ultraviolet lights installed in your HVAC system kill mold, bacteria, and viruses that pass through. They're particularly effective in Louisiana's humid climate where mold growth is a constant concern.
- Kill 99% of mold, bacteria, and viruses
- Keep evaporator coils clean and efficient
- Reduce odors caused by biological growth
- Low maintenance—just replace bulbs annually
Whole-Home Dehumidifiers
Louisiana humidity can overwhelm your AC's ability to remove moisture. A whole-home dehumidifier works with your HVAC system to maintain ideal humidity levels (30-50%).
- Prevent mold and mildew growth
- Reduce musty odors
- Improve comfort at higher AC temperatures (saving energy)
- Protect furniture, flooring, and belongings
- Remove 70-100+ pints of moisture daily
HEPA Filtration
Hospital-grade HEPA filters capture 99.97% of particles 0.3 microns and larger. Ideal for allergy and asthma sufferers.
- Capture the smallest particles standard filters miss
- Remove pollen, dust mites, and pet dander
- Reduce symptoms for allergy and asthma sufferers
Ventilation Solutions
Modern homes are built tight for energy efficiency, but this can trap pollutants inside. Fresh air ventilation systems bring in filtered outdoor air while exhausting stale indoor air.
Signs You Need Indoor Air Quality Improvement
- Allergy or asthma symptoms worse at home
- Musty or stale odors
- Visible mold growth
- Excessive dust on surfaces
- Condensation on windows
- Humidity above 50% (you can feel it)
- Family members with frequent respiratory issues
Why Indoor Air Quality Matters in Louisiana
Our climate creates unique indoor air quality challenges:
- High Humidity: Creates ideal conditions for mold and dust mites
- Long AC Season: Homes stay closed up for months
- Pollen: Extended allergy seasons year-round
- Older Homes: May have hidden mold or inadequate ventilation
