How An Air Purifier Makes Your Home’s Air Healthier

March 24, 2020

Modern homes are built to maximize energy efficiency by limiting the natural flow of fresh air. Unfortunately, this allows contaminants to build up in the living area where they are distributed throughout the building by your HVAC system. A home air purifier has the ability to clean your home’s air of particulates, bacteria and viruses. If left unaddressed, poor indoor air quality (IAQ) can aggravate a variety of respiratory conditions, including asthma, allergies, and COPD.

How an Air Purifier Keeps Your Home Healthy

As part of a comprehensive IAQ strategy, central filters play a critical role in maintaining a healthy indoor environment. Standard filters can only trap large particles visible to the naked eye, but the contaminants that trigger asthma and allergy attacks are much smaller. Only high-efficiency air purifiers have the ability to capture particulate matter like pollen, bacteria, mold spores and dust.

The Clean Effects air purifier removes harmful contaminants down to .1 microns, which exceeds the effectiveness of the best HEPA filters. Other filters can create so much resistance that your HVAC system is forced to work harder to keep your home comfortable. The Clean Effects air purifier uses a patented technology to achieve the lowest pressure drop in the industry. The air inside your home will stay clean without compromising your heating and cooling system.

MERV Ratings and Healthy Air

Minimum Efficiency Reporting Value (MERV) ratings make it easy for consumers to compare the efficiency of different filter brands and models. The Perfect Fit air purifier series is available in 1-inch, 5-inch and 8-inch efficiencies to meet every indoor air quality challenge. The 1-inch Perfect Fit air purifier models are up to six times more efficient than a standard filter, and they are reusable.
