Prevent Indoor Air Pollution in a Cost-Effective Way!
October 29, 2008 by KevinD
Most Americans spend about 90% of their time indoors. According to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, indoor air can be up to two-to-five times more polluted than outdoor air. Indoor air pollution can trigger allergic reactions, asthma attacks, fatigue, nausea, headaches, scratchy throat, and other symptoms similar to the common cold. More seriously, the EPA has admitted that other health effects may show up after years of exposure. These include respiratory diseases, heart disease and cancer.
But why can’t you just open a window? From the 1970s to today, homes have been constructed with tighter windows and doors to save energy, but also keep fresh air out.
High-efficiency heating and cooling systems constantly re-circulate indoor air so indoor air pollutants build up over time. In fact, the recirculation of indoor air stirs up allergens and distributes them throughout your home. High temperature and humidity levels can also increase concentrations of some pollutants.
You’re probably wondering, is there a cost-effective way to protect my family’s health? YES there is! When a whole-house air cleaner is installed into your home’s heating and cooling system, airborne particles and contaminants are trapped and kept from getting into your body!
