As concerns rise about air pollution levels both indoors and outdoors, it’s important to understand how much an indoor air purifier can keep you and your loved ones at your healthiest. According to the United States Environmental Protection Agency, indoor air can actually be five times as polluted as outdoor air. This is due to the fact that indoor air isn’t circulated as much as outside air, allowing for airborne pollutants to get inside your home.
What is an air purifier good for? To further explain the benefits of using an indoor air purifier, we’ve gathered a list of reasons to consider purchasing one for your home.
What are the Benefits of an Air Purifier?
By refreshing stale air, an indoor air purifier reduces the chances of health issues caused by indoor pollutants. These pollutants can trigger respiratory infections, symptoms of asthma, and neurological problems. With a quality air purifier, you can rest assured your home is free of bacteria and viruses like the common cold or flu, which can spread through tiny pathogens that float around in the air.
Studies show that air purifiers with HEPA and activated carbon filters can trap gases and particles, reducing pollutants in your home. Available at Wholesale Home, the Brondell O2+ Halo Air Purifier Advanced Deodorization Replacement Filter Pack intensively removes odors from pets, cooking and smoke, and effectively removes allergens like dust, pollen, pet dander, mold, and VOCs.
Bacteria, fungi, and dust mites are indoor pollutants that can trigger allergies or hay fever—both can disrupt your sleep as they are associated with sneezing, coughing, congestion, and watery eyes. HEPA air purifiers filter out most allergens, providing cleaner air and a good night’s sleep.
Nitrogen dioxide and carbon monoxide come from outside traffic and can get inside your home. Plus, many cleaners contain toxic chemicals such as ammonia, chlorine, and phthalates, and regular use can lead to serious health issues. Air purifiers with activated carbon can cleanse these chemical contaminants and recycle fresh air back to the room. They also eliminate dangerous asbestos particles, which are banned roofing materials that can cause multiple diseases.
Breathing in pollutants like pet dander, pollen, or dust mites can increase the chance of an asthma attack. Also available at Wholesale Home, the Brondell O2+ Revive True HEPA Air Purifier + Humidifier adds moisture to filtered air, and not only helps relieve allergy symptoms like a stuffy nose, and sinus congestion, but it also effectively relieves dry skin and reduces asthma symptoms. Moving air through dual True HEPA filters that remove 99.97% of particulates and allergens larger than 0.3 microns, makes your air cleaner and fresher so you can breathe easier. Dual intake also creates better airflow, and the Revive will refresh the air in a 627sf room 3 times every hour.
Radon is a colorless and odorless gas, emitting from building materials like rocks, soil, and granite. It can leak into your home through the floors or walls, and it can cause lung cancer. Protecting you from its dangerous effects, HEPA and activated carbon filters can trap radon particles and radon gas.
So, do air purifiers really work? When we’re out practicing our daily routine, we don’t often think about the dangerous effects of indoor air pollution, or the chemicals and gases from common household products that can damage our lungs. Having a quality house air cleaner will trap 99.97% percent of airborne particles and provide you with much better air quality.
