As carbon emission keep soaring, polluted air rises. Everyone knows that air pollution is hazardous to health and the environment. In fact, inhaling air pollution takes away at least 1-2 years of a typical human life. And if you think outside air is bad for you, indoor air pollution is 2-5 times worse than the air outdoors!
Air Purifier
Buying an air purifier improved the indoor air quality in a home, or an office by cleaning out pollutants such as dust, smoke, and pollen. Those can be trigging for people with allergies and asthma.
The Whirlpool Tower Air Purifier features HEPA filtration, capturing 99.97% of particles as small as 0.3 microns. This purifier removes airborne allergens from rooms up to 200 sq. ft., and does so 4.8 times per hour. The VOC sensor detects compounds, gases and fumes, and a charcoal pre-filter pre-cleans the air of these VOCs before it even reaches the HEPA filter. Additional features include three fan speeds, sleep mode, auto mode and a timer that goes up to 18-hours.
Humidifier
A humidifier also can help improve indoor air quality. Humidifiers are devices that produce water vapor to increase moisture levels in the air. They can help ease symptoms of a cold, sore throat and a cough. Increased humidity can also help asthmatic patients.
The Evap3 Evaporative Vortex Humidifier creates a comfortable, perfectly humidified living space quickly and quietly. Vornado’s deep pitch blades pull large volumes of harsh, dry air through two humidifying filters, and then, using Vornado’s signature Vortex Action, circulates the humidified air throughout the room, providing complete and uniform humidification in spaces up to 700 sq. ft. Easy-to-use push button panel allows you to choose your desired humidity level and fan speed. Large 1.5-gallon capacity makes for fewer refills.
Dehumidifier
Dehumidifiers also help create a safer and healthier air by eliminating mold and mildew that come as a result of having too much moisture and dampness within the home. Other than preventing mold, they also help improve air quality, help eliminate dust mites and protect your home. Having high humidity levels can destroy the home’s structural integrity.
The 60 Pint Dehumidifier can help find relief with this high-quality dehumidifier by Danby Appliances. The unit is designed to take out 60 pints of water every 24 hours, for areas up to 4,000 sq. ft depending on conditions. Unlike other Danby dehumidifiers which feature gravity drain systems, the moisture in the air is conveniently removed via the internal condensate pump for easy pumped drainage. This model boasts the well-known Energy Star rating which helps to conserve electricity and keeps your hydro costs down. The R410A refrigerant also makes it an environmentally-friendly machine. The dual fan speed (high/low) is easily set with the electronic remote-control system and the coils are kept free of ice buildup due to the automatic de-icing unit. The dehumidifier also has a clever auto-restart feature in case of a power failure and the low-temperature function enables the machine to operate continuously until temperatures reach 5ºC. Cleaning is easy with the handily removable air filter, and the smooth rolling casters make this model easy to transport.
