The quality of the air in your home has a big impact on the quality of your life. That’s why every home by Brookfield Residential is designed and equipped to reduce toxins and provide greater protection against allergens, dust, viruses, and mold.

To improve air quality in our homes, the HVAC system includes a Ultraviolet (UV) Light, Carbon Filter and Heat Recovery Ventilator (HRV) as standard features.

You'll breathe easier in a Brookfield Residential Home.

Our HVAC systems combine UV light technology with activated carbon filters to help reduce airborne pollutants, odors, and bacteria. The UV light neutralizes bacteria, mold, and viruses, while the carbon filter traps unwanted particles, gases and odours. So you and your family can enjoy cleaner, fresher air in every room.

UV light
Ultraviolet (UV) Lights: Removing Harmful Organisms
The air inside your home contains bacteria and other small microbes, and mold (even cold or flu viruses). The pre-installed UV filter uses ultraviolet light to kill up to 90 of harmful airborne organisms in your home.

Furnace Carbon Filter: Clearing the Air

As an added level of protection, Brookfield Residential homes include a carbon filter. Carbon filters remove microscopic particles that standard furnace filters will not. This includes:

Household Odours

Don’t fret about unwanted smells from cooking, pets or fumes. The carbon filter removes odours for a more pleasant living environment.

Gases

Carbon filters capture volatile chemicals like benzene, formaldehyde and toluene, which can off-gas from new furniture, plastics and other materials.

Smoke and Fumes

Whether it is from wildfires, cigarettes, exhaust or cooking mishaps, carbon filters trap these harmful contaminants to protect the lungs and airways.

Heat Recovery Ventilator: Healthy Air Exchange

A Heat Recovery Ventilator (HRV) is a mechanical ventilation system that exchanges stale indoor air with fresh outdoor air to improve air quality. It heats outdoor air in the winter and cools it in the summer, to provide a consistent, regulated temperature – and maintain energy efficiency.

A Material Advantage

As modern homes become more energy efficient and airtight, maintaining healthy indoor air requires a more intentional approach. Everyday items like furniture and household products can introduce volatile organic compounds (VOCs) that build up over time. Brookfield Residential is proactively improving the air you breathe at home by carefully sourcing low VOC paints, materials, and finishes to help reduce off-gassing, ensuring fewer chemicals are airborne in your home from day one.

This is complemented by the advanced carbon air filters and ultraviolet (UV) light system that work to reduce pollutants and neutralize bacteria and viruses as air circulates through your home. The result is a cleaner, healthier indoor environment you can feel confident in every day.
