Indoor Air Purifiers - What Are You Breathing

Indoor Air Purifiers breathing

Are you one of the millions that suffer from asthma or allergies? It is important to note that 80% of the people in America suffer from one or the other or both. This is more than the total number of people that suffer from diabetes and heart disease. This is pretty alarming when you figure that the greatest cause for sudden attacks of asthma or allergies can come from inside your home. It is time that you do something about it.

As Americans, we spend almost all of our time indoors. This is the one place where pollution is at its highest. Often, the pollution index in our homes is five times the amount it is in our back yard. The old adage, “Get outside and get the stink off ya,” may need to be improved to say get a breath of cleaner air. The next time you sit in your home and admire the sun rays streaming through your windows; take a close look at what is in those rays of lights. It will be quite an eye opener for you.

So what is a person to do? You spend hours cleaning your house, trying to make sure that there is no dust, that any pet hair is picked up and that everything is disinfected… but ask yourself, where are all those things going once they are off your counters and furniture. They are creating their own little universe in the air of your home. You didn’t want them on your things; do you really want them in the air you are breathing? I would think not.

Consider getting a home purification system. There are different types of home air purifiers, each have a distinct function. There are indoor purifiers that will remove the dust from the air. All homes have a dust build up in the air unless they run the heating/AC 24 hours a day and keep the house spic and span. For this, you will look for a HEPA machine. These are usually not capable of cleansing the air in the whole house, so you may need one for each room, or each level of your house.
 
There are mold removal and second hand smoke removal units as well. Neither of these units are recommended as that their filtration system has not been clinically proven to work and can give off harmful ozone levels. This is then counter-productive to having a home air purification unit.

Probably the best solution then is to look at a system that has a PCO filter. This doesn’t just clean the air, it sanitizes the air. Systems such as the NANO O2 can remove about 98% of all the mold, bacteria, fungus and yeasts from the air. Clinical tests show the reduction of bacteria off surfaces after using the NANO O2.

If you are going to improve the quality of life you have by improving the quality of air that you breathe it only makes sense to use a unit can take care of your entire home. Eliminate the pollutants in your home air with a whole house air purification unit.
