Air Pollution & You
According to the Environmental Protection Agency, indoor air pollution is among the top five environmental risks to public health. EPA studies have shown indoor levels of pollutants may be exponentially higher than outdoor levels. With the majority of airborne contaminants invisible to the naked eye (spores, bacteria, particulates, gases, and chemicals) it is difficult to isolate these health threats and protect your family.

What Causes Indoor Air Pollution?
Inadequate ventilation is one of the main causes of indoor air pollution. Due to the lack of fresh air entering a home, common household tasks and activities can seriously threaten the indoor air quality. Improperly vented gas stoves and furnaces, wet or damp carpet, and household cleaning and maintenance products are general sources of indoor air pollution.
How Air Purifiers Help
The American Lung Association declared that HEPA Filters "are the most efficient mechanical filters for removing small particles which can be breathed deep into the lungs. The highest efficiency air cleaners, widely available today, remove 0.3 micron (1 micron = 1 millionth of a meter) sized particles at a minimum of 99.97% efficiency."
These types of filters can capture both the large particles that cause irritation as well as the more harmful small particles which can cause long-term health hazards.
HEPA air purifiers come in a variety of sizes and applications, ranging from portable units to central filtration systems.
Cleanroom Filters & Supplies carries a wide selection of units from all-purpose models, to allergy and asthma specific applications (removing common large particulate that aggravate these conditions), and many more.
