Air Cleaners
When it comes to cleaning the air in your home there are plenty of choices. The first thing you must ask yourself is what do you want removed from the air? Some air cleaners just remove large particles to protect the heating and cooling equipment. Others are effective on allergen-sized particles, and others are effective all of the way down to virus-sized particles. Since the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) warns that the air inside our homes can be up to 100 times more polluted than the outside air, getting it cleaned up is important to your family’s health.
Aprilaire Electronic Air Cleaner
Model 5000
The Aprilaire Model 5000 is an electronic air cleaner that works silently and effectively to clean the air in your entire house over four times an hour every hour. It will permanently trap particles down to 1 micron. A micron measures one-millionth of a meter wide. A human hair for example is approximately 100 microns in diameter. Particles less than 6 microns are invisible to the naked eye. Allergy causing pollen particles range down to 5 microns, mold and spores to 1 micron, and viruses and bacteria to .01 micron in size.
