The Covid 19 pandemic brought to the forefront the need for innovative solutions to mitigate the spread of airborne pathogens. Some manufacturers attempted to solve the problem by adding chemicals or molecules of substances that were designed to attach themselves to harmful particulate matter in the hopes of rendering them less harmful. The reality is that they simply introduced other foreign particulates into the space causing additional problems. Recent and ongoing University studies have shown that introducing foreign substances into any environment negatively impacts 25-30% of the population.
Here’s the truth – the best way, the most efficient and effective way to purify the air we breathe is to filter out, or block, any particulates that we don’t want to inhale. This has to be done without blocking or restricting air flow through the HVAC system so finding the balance for your home or business was essential to solve the problem of poor or unhealthy Indoor Air Quality (IAQ).
Covid-19 and its mutations or variants aren’t the only health hazard that needs to be addressed. Listed below are some of the airborne diseases that can have severe adverse effects on the population. For a complete list of potential airborne hazards, please do your due diligence by searching the NIH and CDC websites.
COVID-19 was a wake-up call. It wasn’t the first and probably won’t be the last. Protect yourself, your family and those you are responsible for by choosing the right sub-micron filter for your home or your facility.
