What:

Did you know that more than forty pounds of dust accumulates inside the average American home each year? Or that 72 trillion allergens make their way inside your home every day? The public is invited to step inside American Standard Heating & Air Conditioning’s travelling exhibit at the Tampa/St. Petersburg Home & Patio Show to learn how to be more comfortable indoors!

This year’s show will feature local, regional, and national experts in remodeling, building, decorating and landscaping, including green designer Joshua Foss of HGTV’s Design Star, who will meet with guests and share his expertise at the forefront of the eco-design movement.

There are also prizes and giveaways including the Clean and Comfortable Home Coloring & Activity book. A run-down of the exhibit is below, and American Standard Heating & Air Conditioning representatives will be on hand for clean air demonstrations and interviews.

What’s Your Indoor Air IQ?: Test your indoor air quality knowledge by answering four questions.

Magnification Station: Peek through a magnifying glass to get a close-up view of everyday particles found in the home like dust, pet dander and pollen.

Take a Deep Breath: See how many microscopic particles can be inhaled inside a house without a whole home air filtration system compared to a house with a whole home air filtration system.

Dust Bunny Hop: Step inside a house to see how many “dust bunnies” made of cotton balls you can catch swirling through the air.

Why:

The Clean and Comfortable Home Tour educates families on the importance of clean indoor air and how to get it inside their homes with the new AccuClean Whole Home Air Filtration System from American Standard Heating & Air Conditioning. With the AccuClean Whole Home Air Filtration System, up to 99.98 percent of airborne particles are removed from the air it heats or cools so you and your family can breathe easier. In addition, a Harvard-led research study reveals that AccuClean removes more than 99 percent of the common flu, or influenza A virus, from a home’s filtered air.

When:

The Clean and Comfortable Home Tour will be open to visitors during show hours, April 18 – 20.  Please see show schedule below.
