Why Is Good Air Quality So Important?
Everyone should be concerned about the air around us since air pollutants can cause a variety of health problems! Based on a statistic by US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), on average we spend approximately 90% of our time indoors and around 65% inside our home in particular.
The air we breathe in can contain airborne allergens and germs which can cause an impact on our wellbeing, particularly to our respiratory system. Ensuring good air quality is always essential to revitalise our health whereas poor air quality could adversely affect us on a daily basis.
What Are The Potential Health Hazards Of Poor Air Quality?
Exposure to air pollutants may lead to short-term effects such as reduced visibility, headaches, allergic reactions, irritation to the eyes, nose and throat, and longer term effects such as breathing difficulties, asthma and various chronic respiratory illnesses such as lung cancer and heart disease.
Common symptoms experienced due to airborne allergens and germs include cold, sneezing, coughing, eyes irritation, watering eyes, sore throat, breathing difficulty, chest or abdominal pain, diarrhoea, rashes and conjunctivitis.

DC Brushless Motor generates less noise and is typically smaller and lighter than the Brush DC Motor. With the absence of brushes, there is minimum wear and tear which improves efficiency.
POWER EFFICIENCY
With low power consumption, unit can operate continuously throughout the day without running up the electrical bill.
AIR QUALITY SENSOR LIGHT
Unit conducts a quick diagnosis of the current air quality and provides a quick indication through the display of different colour lights. The most appropriate operating mode can then be selected to ensure effective purification.
Would The Use Of Air-Cleaning Devices Be Useful During The Haze?
It depends on the primary purpose for using an air purifier. If it is meant for airborne allergens such as haze particulates removal, HEPA filtration air purification devices are highly recommended. True HEPA (High Efficiency Particulate Arresting) filters are well-known for its effectiveness to capture airborne particulates up to a size of 0.3 microns and with an efficiency of up to 99.97%. Consisting of tightly woven screen of fibres, HEPA filters are the best recommended filter media to intercept and trap haze particulates during the hazy period.
