It’s the foggiest time of the year, allergy season. Spring has sprung and pollen is all around. If you’re tired of spending the season itching your eyes and sneezing, an air purification system may help alleviate some of the annoyance.
Allergens and irritants aren’t only found outdoors. Actually, indoor air may be more polluted than outdoor air and we’re spending around 90% of our lives indoors. The ragweed, pollen and dust from the outside air becomes your inside air. An air purifier will evict those irritants and particles from your home’s air. In fact, Lennox’s Pureair® Air Purification system combats all three different indoor air pollutants; airborne particles, germs and bacteria and chemical odors and vapors. It filters your home’s air greater than any other single system you can purchase.
There are also a few things you can do as a homeowner to help combat the allergens in your home.
- Take off your shoes before coming inside.
- Purchase a vacuum with a HEPA filter and use it regularly.
- If you’ve been relaxing out in the yard or garden, take a shower.
- If you have a dog or any furry friends that go outdoors, wash and brush them frequently.
You may be curious what the difference is between air filtration and an air purification system. Air filters are part of an alternative system and are not capable of removing as many pollutants as an air purifier. Air purifiers are a three-part system in and of themselves and include a regular air filter, UVA light and a metal device that is coated with a light-activated catalyst.
