How effect are air purifiers?
My one year old little girl has had a lot of problems breathing. She has been in the hospital at least twice because she has difficulty breathing. The doctors told us that she has bronchalitis. They will not diagnose her with asthma yet because she is too young. I have recently finished an environmental science class and with that new insight I believe that an air purifier will help her with breathing, at least when she sleeps. My wife is a little more skeptic on the issues. She doesn’t believe that an air purifier will necessarily help our daughter. She is worried that the air purifier will put out more pollutants in to the air then it takes out. I have been looking into air purifiers with a three filter combination (pre-filter, carbon filter, and hepa filter) to maximize the purification. We will not be getting an ozone purifier or an ion purifier do to the chance that extra ozone will be put into the air from the purifier. Thank you for any help you can give.
Wow that’s so sweet that you would care so much about your daughter. You must be a great dad! I bet she loves you a whole lot too.
I think that getting an air purifier would be a good idea.
I LOVE YOU WILL YOU MARRY ME?
I have an air purifier. Since we have gotten ours, I believe that we have reduced the colds and other illnesses significantly. My spouse and my son both have asthma. Since we have gotten the purifier there have been no serious attacks. We are using the ionized one. It doesn’t have any filters you just clean off the purifier. We love it.
daughter has asthma…(she is 3, and was diagnosed when she was 1)….we looked into air purifiers…and this is what we did……we bought a rainbow vacum off of ebay….they are also one of the best air purifiers because it purifies with water (and a heck of a vaccum taboot)…..but we also got a de-humidifier to take the moisture out of the air!….anything broncial doesnt need more moisture…..the rainbow doesnt put alot of moisture into the air it just purifies through a water basin…since we bought these two items she hasnt had anymore problems, and no more week long hospital stays….hope this helps
