When we think of air pollution, we associate it with outdoor air but what about pollution inside?

Believe it or not, indoor air pollution is ranked a high priority public health risk by the United States Environmental Protection Agency. Of course, if you are one of the millions who suffer from indoor allergies and asthma, this is not news to you. So, what can you do about the problem?

Electrostatic and high efficiency particulate air of HEPA filters can effectively remove many allergens in the air. They do so by forcing air through a mesh filter that traps harmful particles like pollen, pet dander, and dust mites. However, research studies disagree on whether or not filters give much added relief in a clean and well ventilated home. That is because while many allergens and irritants are suspended in household air, there are far more resting on surfaces like counter tops. So, even with an air filter, you cannot cutout cleaning which may take away one reason for getting a filter in the first place.
