Introduction

Today, airtight homes have helped conserve energy compared to just a few
years ago. Unfortunately, along with this improvement came an increase in
indoor pollution and contaminants.
We spend a great majority of our time indoors and are constantly exposed
to large amounts of airborne particles such as:

Smoke

Fireplace Fumes

Dust

Household Cleaners

Pollen

Pesticides

Mold

Detergents

Pet Hair/Dander

Cooking Odors

Smog

Repeated long-term exposure to contaminants such as these, as well as bacte-
ria and viruses, may result in respiratory disorders and other health prob-
lems.
Room air purifiers have been proven to reduce these airborne contaminants
so the air you breathe is healthier.

How to Choose the Right Air

Purifier

First, it is important that the air purifier you are considering has its perfor-
mance certified by an independent test lab. This way, you will know exactly
what you are buying. Units which have been tested have the AHAM seal and
CADR (Clean Air Delivery Ratings) on the package.
