Indoor air quality, or IAQ, is an increasingly serious
problem. The EPA has noted that indoor air can be up to ten times
worse than outdoor air, and indoor pollution sources can stem from dust,
pet dander, mold, or household chemicals. Exposure to these types
of pollutants can compromise one's health and cause respiratory
disorders, colds, and allergies and asthma. Also, because homes
and buildings are now being built to be more energy-efficient,
inadequate ventilation can increase pollution levels by not allowing
enough outdoor air to dilute emissions from indoor pollution sources.
Thankfully, the use of an air purifier can help clean
the air in your home or workplace, alleviate the discomfort associated
with exacerbated allergy and asthma symptoms, and even enhance your
respiratory health and overall well-being.
Learn how to choose the right air purifier by selecting
a category below:
|
 |
Home Air Purifiers: For large areas, air purifiers using a
combination of technologies such as HEPA filters and Ionizers
help keep the air clean and fresh. Be sure to pay
attention to the square footage being purified and choose your
air purifier accordingly. |
|
 |
Room Air Purifiers: Like Home Air Purifiers, the best air
purifiers for rooms utilize a combination of air purification
technologies. |
|
 |
Commercial Air Purifiers:
Commercial and Industrial air purifiers have the ability to
handle a larger volume of contaminants when compared to standard
air purifiers. |
|
 |
Allergy and Asthma Air Purifiers: Air purifiers with HEPA
and Activated Carbon to help purify allergy and asthma triggers.
|
|
 |
Pet Air Purifiers: For pet allergies and odors, look for air
purifiers with HEPA filters, Ionizers, and UV light (preferably
a combination of all three technologies). |
|
 |
Smoke Air Purifiers: Tobacco smoke odors are difficult to
remove, but air purifiers with Activated Carbon can help ensure
clean air. |
|
 |
HEPA Air Purifiers: HEPA air purifiers are capable of
capturing 99.97% of particles as small as 0.3 microns.
These are extremely powerful at particulate control and are
perfect for all-purpose air purifying. |
|
 |
Ionic Air Purifiers: Ionizers charge airborne particles and
remove them from the air you breathe. They are easy to
maintain, silent, and even aid in increased oxygen intake. |
|
 |
Ozone Air Purifiers: By releasing ozone-enriched plasma into
the air, ozone air purifiers reduce indoor pollutants such as
dust, mold, bacteria, and chemicals. These types of air
purifiers are ideal for areas with high pollution, such as bars
and salons. |
|
 |
Allergy Furnace Filters: These types of filters are
disposable and capable of turning your home into a "whole house"
filter. Recommended by physicians, furnace filters are
perfect for allergy and asthma sufferers. |
