Indoor Air Quality
The health risks of toxic indoor air in your home or workplace.
Indoor air pollution
The EPA has noted that indoor air may be 2 to 5 times more polluted
than outdoor air and that we spend up to 90% of our time indoors,
half of that in our own homes.
Mold
Mold gradually breaks down the substances on which it grows-good outdoors, a potential disaster inside. Its spores and byproducts can cause health problems. Find out more about this indoor air quality common problem.

Sealed tight
Today's homes are sealed tight to shelter us efficiently from
the heat or cold and this results in low ciculation of air and
infrequent changes.
Minute particles
Our indoor air contains minute particles such as dust mites,
pet dander, pollen and mold spores that can cause symptoms such
as asthma, allergies and other respiratory difficulties.
Airborne chemicals
To add to this many of today's cleaning products, furniture,
carpets and building materials give off chemicals which are
hazardous to health.
Choose a solution that really works.
A high efficiency air cleaner will alleviate these problems
by circulating the air through a series of filters that trap
these toxins and remove them from the air you breathe.
Don't be disappointed
It is important to buy an air cleaner with the capacity to trap
both particles and gases and odors. So many people are disappointed
when they bring home an off the shelf unit that is only effective
for particles and find that it doesn't change anything.
Clean indoor air: essential for good health
An AllerAir air purifier is an investment that will help you
and your family lead a longer, healthier life and avoid the
distress of respiratory problems and expensive medical treatments.
Most off the shelf cleaners have only a few token ounces of
carbon sprayed on a mesh.
It's not enough to have any useful long term effect. |
