The Many Benefits of Maintaining Good Indoor Air Quality 

People spend the majority of their time indoors. That means most of the air you breathe comes from inside your home or workplace. 

While you might not be able to change the air quality at work, you can do something about it in your own home. Installing a whole-home air purifier and taking more steps to improve your indoor air quality will bring many benefits to your daily life.

Reduce Mold Risks

Humidity increases indoor moisture and raises the risk of mold growth. Mold spores in your home can damage organic surfaces, such as wood, drywall, and fabric. More importantly, it can inhibit the immune system and lead to serious respiratory conditions. 

Using a dehumidifier will help you maintain an environment that’s inhospitable for mold and other types of fungus.

Breathe Easier All Day

Air purifiers enhance indoor air quality by removing contaminants. Some particles a purifier removes include pollen, pet dander, tobacco smoke, and dust. Even if you don’t suffer from seasonal allergies or asthma, cleaner air can help you breathe easier. You might also notice a reduction in sore throats, coughing, and dry sinuses.

Sleep Better at Night With Better Indoor Air Quality

The hair in your nose (vibrissae) serves an important role by catching dust and debris before you can inhale those particles. 

If the air in your sleeping quarters has a high amount of contaminants, those particles become lodged in your nostrils and inhibit airflow. This leads to snoring and sleep disruptions. An air purifier solves this issue and leads to deeper and more satisfying sleep. 

Improved Energy and Productivity

Your indoor air quality can sabotage your energy and leave you feeling lethargic. That’s because the particles in polluted air will infect your airway and slow down respiration. Your lungs will use more energy to keep up with the labored respiration process.

An air purifier that removes contaminants from the air will have the opposite effect. You’ll breathe easier and feel more energized.
