Do Air Purifiers Help With Smell?
Make your air healthier with Rucci Oil’s help
Taking care of your home’s indoor air quality may not be something you think about as often as other house chores such as laundry, taking out the trash, vacuuming and doing the dishes. However, it is incredibly important for your health and well-being.
Most of us spend up to about 90% of our time indoors and we are (obviously) breathing in air this whole time. The majority of the homes that we live in are tightly sealed, which doesn’t give air the opportunity to properly circulate. This indoor air actually has about four to five times more pollutants and allergens than outdoor air does! These pollutants and allergens can contribute to asthma, allergies and all sorts of respiratory problems.
Therefore, improving and taking care of your indoor air quality is crucial to your health. One easy way to do this is by adding an air purifier to your home.
How air purifiers help with odors
We all know that our homes can become filled with unpleasant smells. Maybe this is from pets, garbage that needs to be taken out or last night’s cooking. While it isn’t their main job and function, air purifiers can help remove and reduce unwanted odors as long as they have an activated carbon filter.
Air purifiers improve indoor air quality
Here at Rucci Oil we offer two air purifier options that can help make your indoor air quality healthier:
- Ionic air purifiers: The iWave-R air purifer that Rucci Oil carries is designed specifically to treat air in homes with duct systems. This purifier uses positive and negative ions to actively purify air while simultaneously killing viruses, mold and bacteria.
- Ultraviolet-light air purifiers: Ultraviolet light air-treatment systems kill off mold, bacteria and other unhealthy organisms that live in your home’s air. They can help with symptoms and health issues such as fatigue, asthma, headaches, watery eyes, frequent colds, respiratory allergies and the flu.
Other equipment that can improve your home’s indoor air quality
Air purifiers aren’t the only things out there that can help make your home’s air healthier. You can also consider adding:
- Humidifiers: Humidifiers deliver the amount of moisture into your home’s heated air that it needs to be healthy and comfortable. When your home’s humidity levels are where they should be issues like dry skin and stuffiness improve.
- Air filtration systems: HEPA (high-efficiency particulate arresting) filters are able to remove up to 99.97% of the particles passing through them. If you get a whole-house HEPA filter you can eliminate the particulate contaminants that measure 0.3 microns or larger from your home’s air.
