The guy who repaired my parents furnance suggested micro-biocide

for about $15.00 a pop, but I don't know if they are treated or not.
He also suggested buying an electrostatic air filter unit which
attaches to the furnace for addtional filtration. From what I've read,
older homes or ducts *(my parents house is 60 years old) aren't

The Flanders Natural Aire are a much better deal than the $15 paper
ones.

As for internal air quality, opening a few windows daily all year does
more to improve indoor air than any filter, biocide, etc. can ever
hope to do.
