How do you choose the best air purifier to buy? Here's what to look for.
You may have heard about home remedies for asthma, but do some of these actually work? We’ll take a look at the science (if any) behind them.
If you love the holidays but dread the thought of suffering through allergies for another holiday season, you probably have more options than you think. Whether you decide to go with a live Christmas tree, an artificial one, or one made of something new and unexpected, a few simple precautions can make a difference for the air you breathe.
While particulate pollution is bad for everyone, certain populations are more at risk than others. Anyone with heart or lung disease, the elderly, infants and young children suffer more serious effects from these particles. People with heart disease can experience immediate symptoms when exposed to high concentrations of PM 2.5.
Air pollution stems from a variety of sources, both natural and man-made. To increase public awareness, news reports of the health effects of exposure to air pollution has increased in recent years—as a result, we now have a good understanding of where most air pollution comes from.
... Individual molecules of gaseous substances cannot be detected by a particle counter, they are just too small to trigger the detector. So while the particle-counting approach certainly tells us something about the quality of the air, it is definitely not the whole story.
To ensure that your Molekule air purifier continues to effectively trap and destroy airborne pollutants, it is best to only use official Molekule filters—which is why we have made ordering replacement filters as convenient and “hassle-free” as possible.
True to our clean air mission, Molekule employees donated air purifiers to those affected by the Kincade Fire.
Mold growing in an AC unit or in your home’s HVAC system is a serious problem, because it allows mold spores to be spread throughout the house. Cleaning up an HVAC mold problem is a difficult and possibly expensive task. The best way to deal with mold in an air conditioner is to control moisture and prevent it from happening at all.
When it comes to buying an air purifier, there is a lot to consider: from reviews by publishing sites and real customers, to how it’s been tested. The current industry approach to testing has been about the same for the past 40 years, and only focuses on particle filtration and not necessarily how clean the air is.
Air quality is a top concern for those in wildfire smoke-affected regions, as there are possible health effects of inhaling smoke. What are the short and long-term effects of wildfire smoke on your health? How do those health effects interact with conditions like asthma or allergies? We can answer these questions by looking closely at what wood smoke is made of and analyzing the medical research.
