Effective Air Purifier Halo LED

Having an Air Purifier is more important than ever these days since there are many invisible contaminants existing is everyone’s home. These contaminants can build up over time and create health issues, odors and negatively impact your health. Some of these micro contaminants are bacteria, viruses, VOCs, mold spores and toxins too small to be filtered out by standard air filtration, even HEPA filters. Homes and offices are found to have up to five time the amount of contaminants of outside air.

Air Purification

Clean air is healthy and achievable with whole- home air purification that is installed into your existing duct system and works in conjunction with your HVAC’s circulation. These small devices are revolutionary and work behind the scenes with your central air flow system.

There are many whole home air purification systems, but the Halo-LED^®Halo LED RGF Technology provides a longer product life with improved energy efficiency, zero ozone creation and no mercury (sometimes found in traditional UV lamps). It is designed to last longer by turning on and off with your air flow through your system. This allows the Halo LED to last more than twice as long as comparable products.

Harmful Contaminants

Harmful Bacteria and Viruses which can cause and spread illnesses can be in the air you breathe and on surfaces you touch in your home. This is often how the illnesses spread. Four common bacteria found in homes:

• Bacillus- Some species of Bacillus can cause food poisoning.
• Staphylococci- Some species can cause infections and one virulent strain is responsible for MRSA.
• Micrococcus- Relatively harmless, but can cause certain foods to spoil.
• Pseudomonas- Generally do not cause harm to healthy individual, but can cause harm to this who are immuno-compromised.

Bacteria live all around us and even on us. They can be airborne or on any exposed surface. Most of these bacteria are harmless and do not cause health issues, but there are some that do cause illnesses or can aggravate existing conditions.

Viruses can cause mild to serious illnesses from the common cold to very severe sickness. Some are airborne and on surfaces you touch. These viruses include:

• Rhinovirus
• Rotovirus
• Influenza

Airborne Allergens

Allergens generally affect some people more than others depending on their sensitivity to the allergen. The most common airborne allergies come from:

• Pollen (Plant produced)
• Mold Spores
• Smoke
• Dust
• Pet Dander

These contaminants can make most people uncomfortable, have difficulty breathing and for some severe allergic reactions. Whole Home Air Purifiers can be the right answer for you.

Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs)

Volatile Organic Compounds are carbon based chemicals which vaporize (high vapor pressure) and thus become airborne. Some of these chemicals are naturally produced from plants, animals and people. Naturally occurring biological VOCs we recognize as odors. Many biological VOCs are innocuous and cause no harm, but some can become harmful though are rarely toxic. They can be cleansed however, with a whole home Air Purifier.

Other VOCs are caused by man made substances and can be more harmful. These are things such as cigarette smoking, aerosols, paint coatings, solvents, etc.

Dangerous VOCs are compounds such as:

• Benzene- which is produced by smoking and is a known carcinogen.
• Chlorofluorocarbons- produced by refrigerants such as R22 Freon and can emanate from leaks in HVAC systems older than 2010.
• Methylene Chloride- produced by aerosol spray, paints and is metabolized to Carbon Monoxide in the human body.
• Formaldehyde- produced from building materials including wood, ceiling tiles, wall boards and adhesives. Formaldehyde is slowly emitted over time.

Indoor Air Quality (IAQ)

Many factors affect the quality of the air in your home:

• Humidity
• Microbes- Bacteria, Viruses
• Odors
• Mold Spores, Fungus
• Smoke and smoking residue
• Gasses
• Other contaminants- Dander, Particulates

The indoor air quality of your home is dependent on your HVAC equipment’s ability to remove contaminants from the air as it circulates it. Most systems rely on filters which are designed to reduce contaminants from your air as it is pulled through the system. Now there are better options to improve your Indoor Air Quality, Comfort and Health.

Conclusion

Air Purification is an affordable, Important remedy for potentially serious issues in your home. The Halo LED is an excellent choice in whole home air purifiers.
