The air you breathe inside your home could be the most polluted air you breathe all day. In fact, the EPA has named indoor air pollution as one of the top five environmental risks to public health. With the amount of time spent indoors, it’s no wonder so many people suffer from allergies, asthma and other illnesses.

Here’s what’s happening in the air you’re breathing right now:

  • Just one cubic foot of air can have more than 30 million pollutants—that’s 100 times more than the air outside. Polluted air like this causes 94% of all respiratory problems.
  • If you see dust in the air or on your furniture, what you’re really looking at are mold spores, pet dander, bacteria, pollen and other harmful contaminants. About 40,000 dust mites, which increase the chance of asthma development*, can live in just one ounce of dust.
  • In addition to visible contaminants, there’s an alarming concentration of harmful particles that are invisible to the human eye. Particulate matter like this is the leading cause of poor indoor air, and it’s found in 85% of homes.

How a high efficiency whole-home air cleaner can help you:

  • Control health. A whole-home air cleaner removes particulates and irritants throughout your home. That includes mold spores, pet dander, dust mites, bacteria, pollen and even viruses. By removing these harmful contaminants, you’ll help reduce the risk of asthma attacks and allergic reactions.
  • Control dust. You’ll notice less build up, making your home look and feel cleaner, while protecting appliances and electronics.
  • Protect your home. With an installed air cleaning unit working in tandem with your HVAC system, you can make every corner of every room feel more comfortable and more healthy. You’ll also keep your air conditioner cooling coil clean and your furnace working efficiently,saving energy, minimizing repair costs and extending service life.
