Allergy season ushers in a relentless invasion of pollen. It infiltrates your hair, clings to your pets' fur, and eventually settles on your pillows, tables, and floors. The air carries it throughout your home, making it seem inescapable.
Most vacuum cleaners utilize flat filters and bags riddled with tiny holes, providing ample escape routes for pollen. As you diligently clean your home, pollen finds its way through these openings, reentering the air, and perpetuating the cycle.
Similarly, standard air filters are ill-equipped to combat pollen effectively. Surprisingly, pollen particles come in various sizes. Larger particles, exceeding 30 microns, tend to settle on surfaces, posing less of a threat for allergy symptoms. However, airborne pollen ranges from 25 microns down to a mere 2.5 microns, easily floating in the air and infiltrating your nose and eyes, triggering allergic reactions.
Regrettably, these exceedingly fine pollen particles pose a formidable challenge for conventional air purifiers. Non-HEPA-certified air purifiers often struggle to capture these minuscule pollen particles, allowing them to evade capture, circulate, accumulate in your HVAC system, and irritate your nasal passages and eyes.
