Indoor Air Quality: Air Cleaners. Indoor air pollutants are unwanted, sometimes harmful materials in the air. For us the most important aspects for choosing a unit are efficiency, time between maintenance (cleaning etc.) and of course overall cost. Probably in that order although they were all way quite heavily in the decision.

The feature that is either lacking or doesn't function very well in most units we seen or had is indication of when the unit needs cleaning and/or maintenance. Here are some little known facts about the air inside many homes

• The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) estimates that indoor air pollutant levels may be two to five times higher than the pollutant levels outdoors.
• Indoor air pollution is one of the top environmental concerns in the country.
• Americans spend up to 90 percent of their time indoors.
•  Indoor air pollutants such as tobacco smoke, pollen, mold, dust and animal dander can create asthmatic and allergic reactions. 

Sources of air pollution

Tobacco smoke: Tobacco smoke is one of the smallest allergens, and for years the EPA has reported the link between second-hand smoke and health effects.
Pollen: Pollen comes from trees, flowers and grass, and even opening a door can allow millions of these particles into a home. Some people are particularly sensitive to the presence of certain pollen particles.
Animal dander: People who are allergic to cats and dogs are actually allergic to the dander flakes their pets shed. Dander can remain in a home long after the presence of the host animal.
Mold and mildew: Typically found in the shower, kitchen or basement, these sneaky plant spores also grow any place that's warm and humid.
