With spring around the corner, many people will soon want to start the new season with a clean and organised home. Spring cleaning involves organising homes from top to bottom and cleaning everything from appliances to doormats, but have they considered cleaning their air?
Indoor air can be up to 5 times more polluted than outside, so it is important to clean the air in the home efficiently. Blueair’s air purifiers remove at least 99.97% of all airborne particles such as pollen, smoke, dust, mould, spores, bacteria, viruses, pet allergens and microplastics as small as 0.1 microns in size from the air we breathe.
Spring cleaning tends to require a lot of time and a lot of cleaning supplies – many of these contain chemicals which can be harmful. Chemicals from cleaning products contribute to air pollution so it’s important to use an air purifier to remove these harmful toxins from the air. Indoor air pollution is made up of a combination of dust and particles or gases from everyday household products such as candles, paint and varnish to floors. Airborne traffic pollution can even get inside the home and pollute the air.
Breathing in this fine dust or PM2.5 (also known as fine particulate matter) can penetrate deep into the lungs and cause respiratory difficulties, heart and lung problems and a host of other diseases, studies show. Particles in the air can also contribute to anything from colds and flu to determining how well you sleep.
Lars Dunberger, Technology Development Manager, Blueair comments: “Investing in an air purifier means investing in your health. With spring quickly approaching, an air purifier can help you to spring clean the air in your home and ensure you are breathing in the cleanest air possible.”
With easy to use one-button control, Blue removes at least 99.97% of airborne particles as small as 0.1 microns in size including pet dander, pollen, dust and VOCs from the air, thanks to Blueair’s proprietary HEPASilent™ technology. Press once for Auto mode, twice for Night mode, three times for Everyday mode, and four times for Boost mode which rapidly cleans the air. Thanks to the brand-new Auto mode feature, Blue’s smart sensor will monitor real-time air quality conditions and auto-adjust to optimise performance. The levels of particulate matter (PM) are indicated using a colour scale on the air quality indicator which is in line with the World Health Organisation’s recommendations: Blue for Excellent, Orange for Moderate and Red for polluted.
