We are following CDC guidance and evaluating each home visit individually. We are taking every precaution to protect the health of our friends, neighbors and family.
There’s no single solution for staying healthy. While high quality air purification systems guard against bacteria and viruses, there is currently no system that is specified to remove COVID-19 and testing won’t be able to confirm that for some time. But many families want to go above and beyond basic guidelines to protect their respiratory health.
People are becoming increasingly aware of how the quality of the air that they breathe impacts them. It’s as important as the food we eat and the water we drink. The average person at rest takes between 17,000 and 23,000 breaths per day. And around 65 percent of all illnesses are caused by airborne pathogens.
The air in your home could be more polluted than outdoor air, especially in energy-efficient new construction that is virtually airtight. Pollens, danders, volatile organic compounds, bacteria and viruses can all linger in the air your family breathes.
According to the EPA’s Guidance on Air Quality, using a portable air cleaner and/or upgrading the air filter in your furnace or central heating, ventilation, and air-conditioning system can help to improve indoor air quality, often dramatically.
Eyman offers several proven options for keeping your home’s air as clean and toxin-free as possible.
CleanEffects
Trane’s “CleanEffects” is a whole home filtration system that meets the standards established by the Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America. Its performance has been verified by leading experts at the Harvard School of Public Health. Test results measured actual removal rates of particulates, allergens and viruses from the air, trapping particles as small as .1 micron in size.
AprilAire
AprilAire has an excellent line of air purifiers, including its whole home filtration system, the Model 5000.It uses a combination of electrostatic technology and a traditional air filter to remove up to 80% of airborne virus-sized and ultra-fine particles from the air that passes through its system.
Air Scrubber
The Air Scrubber by Aerus is a powerful space-certified technology created in cooperation with NASA to protect the health of the astronauts on board the International Space Station. Using ActivePure® Technology, the Air Scrubber goes beyond traditional air purification systems by not only eliminating stale odors and reducing dust, but actually eliminating harmful contaminants both in the air and on the surfaces of your home. It is effective against MRSA, E. coli and other other illness-causing bacteria and viruses. It also reduces allergy and asthma triggering contaminants.
