On smoky days
- Close windows and doors
- Run the HVAC fan with a good filter to keep air moving through it
- Set the system to recirculate if it has a fresh-air intake
- Check and replace filters more often after smoke events
Longer-term upgrades
Higher-efficiency media filters and whole-home air cleaners can reduce fine particles. A technician can confirm which options your system's airflow supports.

Frequently Asked Questions
