A Cleaner Home Without the Big Renovation
When most homeowners think about upgrading their HVAC, they imagine a messy, expensive overhaul. But the truth is—you don’t need to rip out your system to breathe better air. With the right retrofit, you can transform your existing HVAC into a modern air wellness system in less than an afternoon.
This guide will walk you through how HVAC retrofits—especially with Aireshield—give you healthier air, better efficiency, and years of peace of mind without the big price tag.
What Is an HVAC Retrofit?
An HVAC retrofit is a smart upgrade to your existing system. Instead of replacing the entire unit, you add advanced components that improve performance and indoor air quality.
Cost-Effective: No need for a new furnace or air handler.
Low Downtime: Installs in as little as 30 minutes.
Future-Proof: Brings older systems up to today’s wellness and efficiency standards.
Think of it like giving your HVAC a wellness boost—without the surgery.
The Retrofit Advantage for Air Quality
Traditional HVAC systems rely on disposable filters that clog quickly and let fine particles slip through. Retrofitting with plasma-based filtration changes the game:
Boosts Filter Performance: A standard MERV 8 filter can perform like a MERV 13 after retrofit.
Neutralizes Viruses & Bacteria: Airborne pathogens are tackled right inside your system.
Protects from Smoke & Allergens: Even ultrafine particles get clumped and trapped.
Improves Efficiency: Less airflow restriction means lower energy bills.
It’s the easiest way to transform your system into a clean-air powerhouse.
How Easy Is It to Retrofit?
One of the biggest surprises for homeowners is just how simple it is.
Slide In: Aireshield installs in the same slot as your disposable 1″ filter.
Wire It Up: Two quick connections to the power box.
Confirm: A green light tells you it’s on and protecting your home.
No special tools. No demolition. No guesswork. Just a smarter system in under an hour.
Why Retrofitting Beats Replacing
Replacing your HVAC system can cost thousands of dollars and leave you with weeks of disruption. Retrofitting, on the other hand:
Extends the life of your current HVAC.
Reduces maintenance costs over time.
Provides 10+ years of air quality protection with one upgrade.
Pays for itself through energy savings and fewer filter purchases.
Sometimes, the smartest move isn’t starting over—it’s working with what you already have.
Real-Life Benefits Homeowners Notice

Peace of Mind: Knowing your home is protected against everyday pollutants.
When wellness-conscious homeowners choose a retrofit, they’re investing in their family’s comfort and long-term health.
