Breathing Well. Living Well.
The Unseen Essentials of Modern Health
Today's consumers are more informed than ever. They track their sleep, count their steps, and optimize their nutrition. Yet, they often overlook the two most fundamental elements of health: the air they breathe and the water they drink, 24/7, inside their own homes.
At Patterson Mechanical, we believe true wellness starts at home. We're not just a Plumbing and HVAC company; we are your partners in creating a High-Performance Home Environment™.
The Invisible Health Threat
Modern homes are built to be energy-efficient, sealing in not just comfort, but also pollutants. Aging infrastructure and emerging contaminants impact water sources. Here's the physiological truth:
For Your Air
Cognitive Function & Performance
Studies show elevated CO₂ levels in tightly sealed spaces lead to brain fog, reduced concentration, and decision-making fatigue. Clean, properly oxygenated air is essential for peak mental performance, whether working from home or helping with homework.
Inflammation & Immunity
Airborne particulates (PM2.5), VOCs from cleaners and furnishings, and biological contaminants like mold spores and dander are systemic irritants. They trigger inflammatory responses, exacerbate allergies and asthma, and place a constant, low-grade burden on your immune system.
Sleep & Recovery
Optimal sleep requires clean, cool, and humidified air. Pollutants can disrupt sleep architecture, while proper humidity (40-60%) protects mucous membranes and improves respiratory recovery overnight.
For Your Water
Metabolic & Cellular Health
Water is the medium for every metabolic process. Contaminants like chlorine byproducts, heavy metals (lead, copper), and trace pharmaceuticals can introduce toxins the body must filter, potentially disrupting hormonal and cellular function.
Gut Microbiome & Skin Health
Chlorine, used to treat municipal water, is designed to kill bacteria—impacting not just pathogens but potentially the beneficial microbiome. Showering in chlorinated water can also strip natural oils, exacerbating skin conditions like eczema.
Long-Term Wellness
The cumulative effect of ingesting and bathing in contaminants over decades is a growing concern for health-conscious individuals. It's not just about avoiding illness; it's about reducing the body's toxic load for long-term vitality.
The Clean Air Protocol
- Advanced Filtration
- Installation of high-efficiency MERV 10+ air filters and dedicated HEPA/UV-C air purification systems that capture viruses, bacteria, and ultrafine particles.
- Precision Ventilation
- Energy Recovery Ventilators (ERVs) and Heat Recovery Ventilators (HRVs) that continuously exhaust stale, polluted air and bring in fresh, filtered outdoor air without wasting energy—addressing the core issue of modern, airtight homes.
- Humidity Harmony
- Whole-home humidifiers and dehumidifiers to maintain the ideal 40-60% range, protecting your respiratory health, your skin, and even your wooden furniture.
The Pure Water Ecosystem
- Barrier-to-Tap Protection
- Point-of-entry filtration systems that remove sediment, chlorine, and chemicals from all water entering the home.
- Targeted End-Use Purity
- Under-sink reverse osmosis systems for ultra-pure drinking/cooking water, and shower filter systems to remove chlorine and soften water for hair and skin.
- Infrastructure Assurance
- Proactive pipe health checks and upgrades (e.g., replacing corroded pipes) to prevent heavy metal leaching.
