Every day the
average person breathes in up to 900 cubic
feet of air. And the Environmental
Protection Agency states that since most
people spend a majority of their lives
indoors, the quality of indoor air is a
major area of concern
. In fact, the large
surface area of the lungs and the
sensitivity of the tissues make them
particularly susceptible to air pollution.
Pollen, dander, smoke, and mold enter our
bodies through our large and vulnerable
lungs.
The AirSource 3000 helps reduce all three of
the major forms of air pollution: particles
such as pollen, pet dander, dust, and
cigarette smoke; microbes such as mold and
bacteria; and gases and odors. That's
especially critical since the Environmental
Protection Agency consistently ranks indoor
air pollution among the top five
environmental risks to public health.
