Indoor Air Quality
It is a fact that indoor pollution is worse than outdoors. According to studies by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), indoor
levels of airborne pollutants may be 2-5 times, and occasionally 100 times, higher than outdoor levels. Moreover, we spend about 60% of
our time inside our homes where poor air quality is attributed to the cause or aggravation of half of all illnesses.
Size Does Matter. As a measure of efficiency, filtration is usually referred to by the size of contaminants that can best be removed. A
typical one-inch, disposable furnace filter removes just 10% to 15% of airborne contaminants. Made from fiberglass, these low-efficiency
filters are basically intended to protect the heating and cooling system’s coils from becoming clogged by larger particles. Lint, pollen,
dust mites, and mold spores are the larger particles in the 10-to-100+ micron range (1 micron = 1/25,000th of an inch).

| In high-efficiency filters, there is actually more surface area for filtration to take place. Thanks to denser, smaller trapping spaces, filtration is enhanced to effectively screen out the smallest contaminants. Atmospheric and household dust, animal dander, bacteria and other pathogens, if smaller than 2.5 microns, can be absorbed directly into the bloodstream. With Frigidaire’s High Efficiency Particulate Air (HEPA) Air Cleaners, filtration levels are so efficient that up 99.97% of contaminants are removed down to 0.3 micron size. Frigidaire's High Efficiency Electronic Air Cleaner provides the highest degree of filtration. By comparison, an incredible 95% of contaminants are removed including viruses down to only 0.01 micron in diameter. Together, or separately, these units can make your home cleaner and healthier providing total indoor air quality control. |
