Air Purifiers in Tacoma, WA

Why Air Needs Purification

Indoor air quality can be harmed by a number of pollutants. To start with, most homes are sealed up during the hottest and coldest months of the year. As a result, if there isn’t proper ventilation, so pollutants like dander, dust, mold, mildew, smoke, gas, and bacteria can build up in the air.

Air purifiers are designed to remove these pollutants from your home and make it safe and comfortable to breathe again. But, there is no single "best" air purifier. There are hundreds of models and sizes and only with the right research can you hand-pick one that will work effectively for your family.

Our expertise can help immensely in this process. We’ll help you sit down and choose the model that will best work in your circumstances, taking into account who is in your home, your clean air needs, and your budget.

Removing the Pollutants That Count

There are a lot of different types of pollutants in the air. They range from small form pollutants like gas and smoke to larger pollutants like pet dander, allergens, mold and airborne debris. Different air purifiers are more effective for certain types of pollutants, so it is good to sit down and determine which pollutants have the biggest impact on your home’s air supply.

Another factor to consider is how the people in your home are affected by certain pollutants. The human body is relatively resistant, so it’s not vital to remove every possible pollutant from the air. However, if someone has asthma that flares up when in contact with pollen and pet dander, you’ll want a mechanical system with a high rating that can capture debris as small as 0.3 microns.

If you find that your home frequently has small concentrations of gases like carbon monoxide or smoke, you will want to focus on an air purifier system that targets even smaller particles. You may also choose to have your vents and ducts inspected for potential leaks.
