Indoor Air Purifiers: 4 Reasons Why Every Home Should Have Them

Did you know that in some cases your indoor air can be two to five times dirtier than outdoor air?

That’s a scary thought!

 “While we might believe that outdoor air pollution is the most dangerous, our indoor air can be polluted, too.”

Having an air purifier can help clean the air you’re breathing while in your home – and keep it clean when you’re away.

So how do they work? In general, air purifiers essentially work by cleaning the air of toxins, allergens, and pollutants. Additionally, some purifiers tackle cooking and pet odors as well – what a nice bonus for those of us who love to cook and/or love our furry family members.

I recently ran across a great article from HVAC.com that outlines why air purifiers are important, and how they work in your home. Check out the entire article for all kinds of great information; here are a few snippets that I found compelling:

1. Air purifiers trap airborne allergens released by pets. You may love your pet, but your furry friend releases pet dander, fur, and other airborne allergens into the air in your home — not to mention the smells! Air purifiers help combat these allergens by trapping them before they settle into your home.
2. Air purifiers trap dust. There will always be dust; no matter what you do to keep your home clean, dust accumulates – often within just a couple of days. An air purifier helps trap dust before it has the chance to settle (which is when you see it), reducing build-up and leaving you with less to clean each week.
3. Air purifiers combat seasonal allergens; allergies are a real problem for many people – between pollen, animals, and house dust and dust mites – it can be a challenge to keep them at bay. An air purifier helps keep the allergens that make breathing uncomfortable out of your home.
4. Air purifiers fit everywhere, from individual rooms to whole-house systems. They come in many sizes and have a variety of features that will keep the air healthy in any room of the house.

From whole-house systems to portable one-room solutions, air purifiers can make a big difference in the quality of the indoor air you breathe every day – and are part of the picture that brings a healthy home and wellness to you and your family.
