Breathing clean air is a human right. According to the American Lung Association, the average person breathes 3,400 gallons of air each day. Since most people spend 90% of their time indoors, air quality is important for health and well-being. Yet, the Environmental Protection Agency says that the level of indoor air pollution is on occasion 100 times greater than outside air. What Common Pollutants Does Blueair Trap?

Common airborne allergens and lung damaging pollutants trapped by Blueair include:

• Bacteria
• Dust
• Dust Mites
• Pollen
• Smoke
• Pet Dander
• Automotive Exhaust
• Soot
• Particles emitted by laser printers and copiers
• Fungi
• Mold Spores

Airborne particles are measured in microns. The particles of the greatest health concern are 0.1 to 0.9 microns in size. These particles are small enough to pass the cilia in our sinuses, too small to exhale easily, and can be the cause of a wide range of respiratory and other illnesses.
