clean air

Alberto says: Dust, pollen, pet dander, mold spores, and dust mite feces can act as allergens, triggering allergies in sensitive people. Smoke particles and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) can pose a risk to health. Exposure to various components such as VOCs increases the likelihood of experiencing symptoms of sick building syndrome.

Additionally, with the advancement in technology, air purifiers are becoming increasingly capable of capturing a greater number of bacterial, virus, and DNA damaging particulates.

Air purifiers are used to reduce the concentration of these airborne contaminants and though very useful for people who suffer from allergies and asthma, technological and scientific studies are finding that poor air quality is more a contributing factor of some forms of cancer, respiratory illnesses, COPD, and other pulmonary infections and illnesses.

They also reduce the need for frequent room and area cleaning.

Thus, an air purifier is a device which removes contaminants from the air. These devices are commonly marketed as being beneficial to allergy sufferers and asthmatics, and at reducing or eliminating second-hand tobacco smoke.

Commercial grade air purifiers are manufactured as either small stand-alone units or larger units that can be affixed to an air handler unit (AHU) or to an HVAC unit found in the medical, industrial, and commercial industries.
