The quality of the air in your home - how clean it is and how much humidity it contains - is important to your health, the life of your furniture and the overall performance of your home comfort system. Considering that most people spend 90 percent of their time indoors, breathing an estimated 2,300 gallons of air every day, indoor air can be a key factor in the quality of your life. Indoor air pollution can aggravate allergies, asthma, and other respiratory ailments.
Your home is the one place you should feel safe. However, the air inside your home could be up to five times more polluted than outside air. Pollen and mold spores enter through open doors and windows; bacteria and viruses spread between family and friends; fine dust particles get kicked up from floors and furniture; dander and hair fall from pets. These contaminants can circulate in the air throughout your home spreading disease or triggering allergic and asthmatic reactions.
Even worse, these contaminants eventually cling to your walls, your furniture, your clothing and your lungs. To give you an idea of how much contamination is in the air you breathe, take a look at a sunbeam on a sunny day. What you see is the light being reflected from the visible pollutants in the air. But since the pollutants you can see only make up about one percent of the particles in the air, multiply what you see by one hundred and you'll get a better idea how much pollution you're breathing.
In addition, pet dander, tobacco smoke, grease from cooking, and fumes from automobile exhaust and cleaning solutions find their way into the home's air every day. For those of us with breathing problems or allergies, airborne pollen can be exceptionally unhealthy and uncomfortable.
The air purifier is ideal for those susceptible to airborne germs (such as infants and the elderly), as well as for homes with family allergy concerns, those sensitive to the effects of molds, pollen, pets and more.
You don’t need to hold your breath. An air purifier system is the answer.
Of course, installing an air purifier isn't the only solution to cleaner indoor air. You should start by controlling the sources of contaminants. For example, limit the extent or the areas of your home in which you allow smoking; use non-aerosol products; and clean your furnace, filters, your air conditioner and range exhaust hood filters regularly. You can also cut down on indoor contaminants by circulating them outside through open windows or an exhaust fan.
Unfortunately, these methods by themselves still leave most of the pollution in the air. An air purifier is the most efficient way to enjoy healthier, cleaner air. In fact, it can remove up to 99% of the dirt, bacteria, viruses (including measles, smallpox, influenzas and even the common cold virus), germs, fungi and other contaminants you're now breathing. Air purifiers don’t just filter air, they capture and kill these airborne pathogens and re-purifies indoor air as many as 8 times an hour.
The air purifier uses precision point ionization to charge particles as they enter the purifier. A specifically designed, continuously charged media filter captures airborne particles. Then the exclusive, state-of-the-art technology kills captured viruses, bacteria, mold spores and other allergens.
