Why need air purifier? Well, usually air purifiers are used by people who have allergies or related health conditions but now families are more aware of how bad air affects the health and many are buying the machine for normal use. I resisted buying one because I believed that cleaning my house, keeping the doors and windows shut always would help keep the pollution out. The truth is the environment inside our home could be six times more polluted than the outdoors. If you, like me have an older model of a heating and cooling system, it is likely to not have a modern filter system and as this machine works, it actually brings in outdoor irritants and pollen into the air of the home. Our dog sheds fur continuously, and we also shed skin cells all the time. These dead skin cells are food for dust mites (we feed the enemy!), and dust mites can cause asthma, allergies and skin irritations.
While cleaning the home is a natural act, I found out that cleaning chemicals contain ammonia which is bad for the ozone. Ozone inside could be worse than the ozone layer in the sky. This is because the small area of your home increases the chances for inside ozone to affect your lungs, worsen asthma attacks and may trigger symptoms of lung problems.
After I discovered all these issues, I decided to get an air purifier for peace of mind. This how I started my journey to look for the best air purifier in my house:)
