Purifiers create an oasis of fresh, clean air

Sept. 21, 2010 - PRLog -- Air purifiers have long been touted as a boon to those with allergies, but anyone can benefit from cleaner air. The amount of pollutants entering our air increases every day and without a means of cleaning the air in our home, we have no relief from breathing in toxins and pollution.

Air Purifier Nation can help with the top rated air purifiers on the market. Their air purifiers include such names as NQ Clarifier, Airpura, AllerAir and FilterStream. They only feature  higher-end HEPA models that produce proven results. They also have air quality testers and replacement filters for the models they carry. Air Purifier Nation also offers free shipping on everything they sell.

“The top purifiers that we carry feature not only large HEPA filters for dust and other particles, but carbon filters to remove gases and odors from the air,” said N.K. Singh, owner of Air Purifier Nation.

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has ranked indoor air pollution as one of the top environmental dangers to the public. The EPA estimates the number of homes classified as “sick” at six out of 10. Even though Americans spend up to 90 percent of their time indoors, they know little about health problems associated with poor air quality.

Our homes shelter and protect us, but they also harbor a variety of pollutants, including airborne chemicals, gases and pollen. The air inside homes can be up to 100 times more polluted than outside air.

“I think that people would be surprised to learn how many pollutants are in the air inside their homes and offices, even in brand new buildings,” said Singh.

Anyone can benefit from cleaner air, especially if you’re pregnant or have children. It’s critical to prevent infants from chemical exposure. Certain toxins are believed to cause ADD, ADHD and may even be an underlying cause of autism in some individuals. Children don’t have fully developed immune systems and can’t filter toxins as efficiently as adults. It’s up to adults to provide the protection they need.

Adults with allergies and respiratory-related illnesses are obvious candidates for air purifiers and can increase their quality of life. However, many don’t realize that breathing-related problems also have an impact on heart health, which can lead to cardiovascular disease and high blood pressure. Seniors and those with a reduced immune system have a higher risk of complications from common bacteria and viruses. A constant flow of clean air can help promote longevity.

If you have pets, air purifiers not only remove the pet hair and dander that bothers your breathing, they also create a healthier environment for your pet. Pets are lower to the ground where toxins and other pollutants settle.

Much of the technology we take for granted can also be a source of indoor pollutants. Computers, printers, fax machines and copiers all give off low levels of chemicals that can have a dramatic impact on lung health. There’s not much you can do about your work environment, but you can breathe cleaner air at home, especially if you have a home office.

An air purifier is also a good idea if you live near an industrial area, a major source of pollutants. Living near an agricultural area can lead to exposure to pesticides that have been linked to a variety of diseases and health-related problems. In addition, curling up in front of a fireplace can be cozy, but it’s also a source of carcinogens as are wood burning stoves and appliances.

We live in a wondrous age of machines and technology that make our lives easier and more comfortable. Unfortunately, many of those same advances expose us the very toxins and pollutants we want to avoid. It just makes good sense to use an air purifier to clean and filter our air. An air purifier will make your home an oasis of fresh, clean, toxin-free air.
