Hepa Media

Retirement Many of us in our homes for safety and relaxation, only to find that our senses are constantly attacked by a variety of asthma and allergy-related culprits.

The EPA has repeatedly warned the public about the dangers of poor air quality inside and unfortunately, even the most immaculate home can be teeming with pollutants. Virtually every home is affected by particle internal and this is especially true if your house was built in the past 20 years, as energy conservation efforts taken in the 1970s required homes to be built especially tight. Common sources of pollutants in indoor air may contain dust, carpet, furniture, household items, pets, and cigarette smoke. Unfortunately, exposure to these contaminants can cause a range of issues health such as asthma, allergies, respiratory disorders and even cancer.

One way to fight against these airborne irritants is to use An air purifier with high quality to clear the air. Air purifiers can also help to remove fumes from carpet and textiles, cleaning products, particles and other pollutants that can endanger your health.

Studies have shown that clean air helps sleep better and breathe more easily, and finding an air purifier may seem confusing at first. One of the most effective to control the particles through the use of a particulate filter, high efficiency, but finding the right type of filter can even be difficult. Two popular types of HEPA filters and air HEGA, and while these two terms seem interchangeable in May, they are also quite different, because they are used to filter the different types of pollutants.

HEPA technology has been around since 1930 and is essentially a media type filter that allows air to pass. This type of filter is very effective in reducing particles, and is 99.97% effective in capturing particles of 0.3 microns or more (including pollutants such as dust, hair, dandruff, and pollen). HEPA technology was originally developed by the Commission of Atomic Energy to create a clean and safe environment for troops, researchers and scientists.

Because of the capacity of a HEPA filter to remove particles from the air, it is the method the most common air purification. When buying an air purifier with HEPA filter, HEPA filter look authentic as they must pass independent tests and perform at a certain standard to receive the distinction of a True HEPA filter. Also, when deciding on a HEPA air purifier, pay special attention to the construction of the filter. Hot rolled HEPA filters are best, because they are not prone to cracking, and air cleaners using filters in hot-rolled and pleated HEPA also increase efficiency filtration.

On the other hand, HEGA filters serve a different purpose. HEGA stands for high efficiency gas absorption, and this type of filter was developed ten years ago by the British army as a defense against chemical warfare. HEGA filters are made of a carbon fabric and are considered more effective than granular activated carbon to adsorption of gaseous pollutants, chemicals and odors. Because of their efficiency, light weight and easy handling, air purifiers HEGA with filters are becoming more popular, especially in air purifiers oriented allergy, chemical, gas, and control odors. In fact, some air purifiers use the same filters HEGA in combination with HEPA filters to provide complete air purification.

Therefore, choosing a filter or HEGA HEPA air purifier, you can be assured that you will get the same purification technology used by the government and have thorough and complete filtration of particles, gases and VOCs.
