Yes, air purifiers really work. To get the best results for your home, you should research which air purifier matches your needs, since air purifiers use a variety of methods to purify the air. The most common technologies used for air purification are carbon, UV and HEPA. Some of these air purification methods focus heavily on removing dust and dander whereas others can be more effective at reducing or eliminating mold or bacteria from your air. To learn more about getting an air purifier for your home, contact us today.

To keep your indoor air clean, you should: 

• Utilize bathroom and kitchen exhaust fans. 
• Introduce fresh air into your home by opening windows. 
• Clean your home regularly. 

Another thing you can do to improve your indoor air quality is to invest in an air purifier.

Common indoor air pollutants include:

1. Particulate matter: Dust, pollen, pet dander, and mold spores.
2. Volatile organic compounds (VOCs): Chemicals released from household products like paints, cleaning agents, and furniture.
3. Carbon monoxide (CO): Produced by incomplete combustion from gas appliances.
4. Radon: A naturally occurring radioactive gas that can seep into homes from the ground.
5. Tobacco smoke: Contains numerous harmful chemicals that can linger in indoor air.
   Regular ventilation and air filtration help reduce indoor air pollutants.

Whole-house air purifiers can help reduce tobacco smoke particles in indoor air, improving air quality. However, while they can effectively filter out smoke particles and odors, they may not eliminate all harmful chemicals present in tobacco smoke. It's crucial to remember that the best approach to creating a safe environment is to avoid smoking indoors altogether. Proper ventilation, air purification, and smoking outdoors help minimize health risks associated with tobacco smoke exposure.

Pet dander consists of tiny, even microscopic, flecks of skin shed by cats, dogs, and other animals with fur or feathers. It can negatively impact indoor air quality by triggering allergies and asthma symptoms, such as sneezing, coughing, and respiratory issues. Dander can linger in the air and settle on surfaces, making it hard to remove. Regular cleaning, using air purifiers, and maintaining HVAC filters can help reduce pet dander and improve indoor air quality.
