Choosing a Holmes Air PurifierThe Holmes Standard Most consumers want to select an air purifier that meets the standards of a Holmes air purifier. The most important concerns of most consumers include the noise levels, visual appeal, frequency of filter replacement and - most of all - quality of air filter function. The Department of Energy sets standards for air filters. The high efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filter is preferred by most consumers. It can theoretically remove 99.97% of particulate pollution including dust, pollen, mold, bacteria and other airborne particles. Each Holmes air purifier contains a HEPA filter, and the Holmes air purifier also is known for its quiet motor. The various models are versatile in that they are designed to work sitting flush against the wall, stand upright or be used on their side according to the wishes of the user. There are several sizes to accommodate rooms up to almost 500 square feet. In addition to using a high quality air cleanser like the Holmes air purifier, other actions can be taken to reduce air irritants in the home. There is no way to entirely eliminate dust mites in the home and besides using the Holmes air purifier, it s a good idea to use a plastic mattress cover for every mattress and box spring in the home. The use of a fireplace releases some smoke into the home which lingers, especially in fabrics. A good way to get around that, is to replace a wood-burning fireplace with an electric fireplace if desired. The HEPA filter in the Holmes air purifier is not the only air filter in the home. Always use the exhaust fan over the stove when cooking and make sure its filter is cleaned regularly. Clean the air conditioner filters monthly, and always remember to check the air conditioners for any sign of mold or mildew. Keep doors and windows closed to keep dust, car exhaust and pollen from entering. Artificial scents can be irritating so avoid perfumes and scented soaps, candles and cleansers. Check the weather forecasts for warnings of days with high pollution - whether ozone alerts or reports of high pollen counts - and stay indoors when appropriate. With the right actions and the help of a Holmes air purifier, you can enjoy a safer indoor environment. |
