are you allergic?

Let’s talk, what would you do? And how would you get rid of the mould.  We’ve had a cleaner, come and try to clean some of these things.  However as I put things back into my new closets I realize I have an extreme allergy and my nose is running.  So here’s what I will do to help fix it!

What you need

As a family that has moved to all the epicenters of air pollution.  I am a big proponent of air filters!  So the moment I experienced a reaction to mold , I revved up my air filter!

for your kids

Compared to adults, children are more sensitive to the effects of air pollution and poor indoor air quality. Good indoor air quality is especially important if you have children. The development of a child’s lungs and immune system can be affected by allergens and pollutants in the air, and some outdoor toxins can even hinder brain development. 

Air purifier

An air purifier is an east way to improve your indoor air quality. If you are trying to find the best air purifier for kids, you will want to know what pollutants affect children the most and which air purifiers are most effective at removing them.

what could be harming you

Some pollutants that can cause problems for kids, especially in a kids room, include:

  • Mold
  • Pet dander
  • Dust mites
  • Pollen
  • Smoke

The pollutants come in two forms: particles and gaseous pollutants. An air purifier should be able to handle both types of pollutants to be effective.  

filters matter

HEPA – Hepa filters remove 99.97 percent of particles at 0.3 from the air. This includes most particles of pet dander, dust mites, pollen and mold spores. A HEPA filter needs regular changing to maintain its effectiveness. HEPA filters are typically paired with carbon filters.

Pollen, mould spores, pet dander and dust mites can all trigger allergic reactions. Removing these particles from the air will reduce their levels.
