A lot of problems with breathing come from the indoor air.
- There are lots of indoor irritants that can cause problems for your health.
Allergies and other breathing ailments can cause a number of problems in your day-to-day life. Allergies can cause headaches and i, nose, and throat irritations. There are also harmful emissions inside of the air that are not dust or dirt. These emissions are called volatile organic compounds. Volatile organic compounds or vocs are found in every home. We often don’t realize that we are breathing them in, but they are present in our life everyday. Vocs come from a variety of different areas. Carpet, flooring, caulk and adhesives all have vocs. Air fresheners, cleaning products, and even wood burning in the fireplace can cause volatile organic compounds to enter your home. There is one way to get rid of these indoor air pollutants. An air purifier is a great way to get rid of vocs. Air purifiers filter out 99% of indoor particles and vocs. Several studies show that overall physical and mental health improved 60% after sleeping with an air purifier for a week. Air purifiers can be small and portable, or they can be made for your entire home. Home air filtration systems can be very expensive, but they work well and remove all of the harmful indoor air pollutants that can cause allergies and asthma. Some businesses, manufacturing plants, and industrial buildings are required by the law and OSHA to have air purifiers to clear the air and get rid of toxic fumes, odors, and dust.
