626-621-2220Living against the Angeles National Forest is the appeal of La Cañada and the reason filtration matters more here than almost anywhere else we work.

La Cañada Flintridge's position against the national forest puts it closer to fire activity than any other community we serve. When there is smoke in the foothills it arrives here first, at higher concentration, and it can persist for weeks. Unlike pollen, smoke particulate does not respect a closed window — at that particle size it finds every gap in a building envelope.
The rest of the year the exposure is different but continuous: pine and oak pollen, dust and fine grit carried down through the canyons by wind. Purified Air installs whole-home purification and filtration for La Cañada homeowners who want genuine protection rather than a better grade of hardware-store filter. These systems treat the full volume of air the HVAC system circulates.
The filter in your return grille is doing a much smaller job than most people assume:

The right specification depends on what you are trying to remove:
Filtration upgrades deliver most in homes with these conditions:
Once smoke is inside, it stays until something actively removes it.
Exposure here is materially higher than a few streets south.
Reducing indoor particulate load has a direct, measurable effect.
A strong sign the problem is indoor air.
A repeatedly dirty coil means the filtration ahead of it is not working.
Given the exposure here, filtration is one of the more worthwhile HVAC investments available, and the difference is noticeable within days. Purified Air will assess your systems and specify accordingly. Call to arrange a consultation.
