Study
after study shows that as homes become more energy efficient, more
contaminants become trapped inside. The air we breathe in our home
is loaded with pollutants like pollen, dust, pet hair, dander,
dust mites, tobacco smoke, spores, and disease-causing bacteria.
Traces of pollutants can trigger miserable reactions for
allergy sufferers. In addition, these pollutants can also damage
your draperies, upholstery, and even your furnace and air
conditioning equipment. The typical throw-away furnace filter only
traps about 5 - 15% of these polluting particles. In this day and
age, you need a whole-house, high efficiency air cleaner to do the
job. And, unless you know what you're looking for, picking the
best air cleaner to fit your needs can be quite a challenge.
An Air Cleaner will help protect your
health from the dangers of indoor air pollution.
According to the EPA, Air cleaners may reduce the health
effects from some particles - small solid or liquid substances
suspended in air, such as dust or light spray mists. Some air
cleaners, under the right conditions, can effectively remove
certain respirable-size particles. These invisible particles are
of concern because they can be inhaled deeply into the lungs.
Removing such particles may reduce associated health effects in
exposed people.
Clean air =
Clean lungs
Amazing as it may seem, the Environmental Protection Agency
(EPA) states that indoor air in your home may be 4 to 100 times
more polluted than the outdoor air in cities like Los Angeles and
Houston.
Sources of indoor pollution may be: insulation, dust mites,
mold spores, pollen, animal hair, bacteria, pet dander, cleaning
products, tobacco smoke, out-gassing from carpet, drapes and
plastics, and many other allergens and irritants. Protect yourself
and your family with an air cleaner professionally installed by
