The ionic air purifier can clean toxins and pollutants out of your indoor air that you didn’t even know was there. Indoor air is actually far more dangerous to your health than outdoor air without the use of an ionic air purifier. But where do all these pollutants come from?

Ionic Air Purifiers Can Clean Up What We Leave Behind

The first, sometimes most prevalent source would be humans; dead human skin flakes to be exact. That’s what you’re looking at when you see the little things sparkling in the sunlight. Nasty, huh? Because our bodies are constantly regenerating our skin, we humans are the one of the largest polluters of indoor air - the air we then turn around and breath. Unfortunately, being human, there’s probably not a lot you can do about it. Dust mites feed off these dead skin flakes almost exclusively. Also, keep in mind, what you see is only ten percent of what’s there. Mother nature takes care of this issue for us, but only if we’re outside. The ozone destroys much of the bacteria on these skin flakes, and negative ions remove them from the air altogether. The dust mites and all the other bacteria cluster together, become heavier, and end up on the ground where you’re far less likely to try to breath it. Unless you’re very odd.

Ionic Air Purifiers Remove Dust

Dust is another culprit. Nearly 40 pounds of dust is created per 1500 square feet every year. About forty thousand dust mites and other virii and bacteria rides upon each speck of dust. Again, outdoors, negative ions remove the dust particles and ozone destroys most of the bacteria that are riding around on them. This effect is what the ionic air purifier simulates.

Ionic Air Purifiers Can Remove Pollen

Pollen is a wonderful thing. Without it, we’d have no honey and plants would not reproduce. In our noses and sinuses, however, pollen falls under the category of the far less friendly term of “allergens.” Although pollen is great outside, there’s no way for nature to address it once it’s inside. An ionic air purifier can take care of this problem for you.

Ionic Air Purifiers Remove Lots Of Things

Believe it or not, that wonderful new smell that comes with your new home is actually the out-gassing of the chemicals used to treat the paint on the walls and the other materials from which the home is built. While wood floors are better for you than carpet, carpet is much cheaper, which means it’s often opted for. The ozone from an ionic air purifier will deal handily with these chemical fumes. Furnishings, such as sofas, chairs with cushions, or even mattresses are treated with chemicals such as fire retardants, which add to the pollutants in the air. Again, these can be oxidized and neutralized by the ozone from an ionic air purifier. One more thought. Did you know that over half of the weight of an average pillow is actually the dust mites contained therein? And you thought bed bugs were a silly wives tale, didn’t you? Dust mites don’t stand a chance against an ionic air purifier.
