Common Indoor Air Quality Mistakes Revealed by Alen Air Expert
Nick highlights that cooking without ventilation, using chemical cleaners, and neglecting air purifier maintenance worsen air quality. He notes, "Surprising culprits include vacuuming without HEPA filters and overwatering plants." Misconceptions like relying on air fresheners or occasional air purifier use can also degrade air quality. Regular maintenance and continuous air purification are key to healthier indoor environments.
Air Purifiers: Essential Defense Against Wildfire Smoke
Nick confirms, “Yes, air purifiers can help mitigate wildfire smoke.” He recommends HEPA filters combined with activated carbon to capture fine particulates and gaseous contaminants. Alen’s H13 medical-grade HEPA filters, like those in the BreatheSmart series, capture 99.9% of particles as small as 0.1 micron, effectively removing smoke and harmful gases.
