The air quality in your home can significantly impact your health, especially for people with allergies and respiratory issues. The Environmental Protection Agency has even found the air quality in many U.S. homes is up to 5 times more contaminated than the air pollution from outside. Air cleaners are a great way to clean the air in your home, benefiting those with allergies.

A Guide to Indoor Allergies

Allergens are substances that cause allergic reactions or trigger asthma symptoms in those with respiratory issues. Allergens are spread through the air and can settle on your floors and furniture. Allergens include:

Pet dander
Dust & dust mites
Mold & mildew
Pollen

Many people with allergies will avoid pollen and mold by staying inside. Unfortunately, your inside air is also contaminated with outside allergens brought inside. In addition to outside allergens, the air in your home is contaminated with allergens already existing in your home, such as dust mites and pet dander. The EPA recommends improving your indoor air quality by:

Controlling your contact with indoor allergens
Ensuring your indoor areas are well-ventilated
Using air cleaners to clean the indoor air

You can reduce allergy and asthma triggers by improving your home’s air quality.

Combatting Indoor Allergies With Air Cleaners

Air cleaners are a great way to improve your home’s air quality. Air cleaners are designed to capture and remove pollutants from your home’s air. Indoor Air Quality Products with HEPA filters work hard to eliminate allergens like dust mites and mold spores. Some cleaners use UV lights to target and disinfect microscopic threats like bacteria and viruses.

Individual air purifier units can help to clean the air in smaller spaces like separate rooms. Whole-home air cleaners are installed into your HVAC system to clean your entire home.

Air cleaners work to:

Improve the indoor air quality
Reduce your exposure to allergy & asthma triggers
Remove odors
Reduce your risk of bacteria & virus exposure
Reduce dust buildup
And more!
