1. Air Purifiers (Air Filtration & Germ Elimination)
Your IAQ (Indoor Air Quality) is probably more important today because of current events (Covid) than any time in the past. Airborne Allergens like Viruses, Bacteria & Mold can cause serious health problems to you and your family.
They can filter out dangerous allergens as small as .03 microns including large particles like:
- Dust Mites (Feces)
- Bacteria, Viruses
- Mold Spores
- Pet Dander, Pollen & Ragweed
- Smoke (Cigarettes & Fires)
- VOC (Volatile Organic Compounds) & Gaseous pollutants

2. Air Conditioners (Cooling & Humidity Control)
Why would an air conditioner be a good machine for cleaning the air? Most Air Conditioners will lower air temperature and take water (humidity) out of the air.
If your humidity rises above the 50% level mold can start growing, dust mites are flourishing plus it’s uncomfortable to live in. Plus, if your temperature at home rises above the 72 F / 22 C level it can affect your sleeping and energy levels.

3. Carpet Cleaners (Germ Elimination)
Steam cleaning has many advantages over using chemical solutions when it comes to cleaning your carpet. Surface cleaners leave potentially toxic residue in your carpets, and don't provide the deep-down clean that a proper steam cleaning can offer.
While chemical solutions are generally effective in removing most surface stains, steam cleaning is the only method known to get deep down in your carpet to remove almost all traces of dirt and bacteria. This is because steam cleaning methods penetrate your carpet to its deepest layer.

4. Dehumidifiers (Humidity Control)
Mold (Fungus) and Bacteria will start growing at humidity levels above 50%. To avoid too much humidity and too much dryness, keep your home humidity levels between 35% and 50%. If the humidity level is too high, invest in a dehumidifier to reduce the moisture level.
When home humidity levels climb too high and the temperature is too warm, it creates an ideal breeding ground for dust mites.
These tiny little creatures cause annoying symptoms in people who are allergic to them including watery eyes, sneezing, a runny nose, itching, and worsening of asthma symptoms.

5. Humidifiers (Humidity Control)
It is cold out, possibly below freezing, and the dryness of the winter air, along with the additional dryness caused by forced air heating turned up high, can be a health risk, as well as plain old irritating. Problems with dry air are
- Dry Skin,
- Congestion,
- and the increased likelihood of catching a Cold or Flu because Viruses love dry air.
Humidity describes the amount of water vapor in the air, and this is where a humidifier comes in. Humidifiers increase humidity by releasing water vapor into a room through a slow filtering device and a fan. The ideal humidity level is between 25 and 50 percent and many humidifiers have devices called humidistats to monitor this level.

6. Steam Cleaners (Germ Elimination)
Allergies to dust and molds cause discomfort to many people, and even pose a serious health risk to others. One of the most effective ways to ease allergy symptoms in the home is to clean with steam.
Dust mites are microscopic organisms that live in the porous surfaces of our homes such as carpets, mattresses, and the tiny grooves in hardwood floors. They survive by consuming organic detritus, such as the flakes of skin that humans and animals naturally shed.
When a person has an allergy to dust mites, their body is actually reacting to the waste produced by the tiny organisms. These particles are easily stirred up by walking across a carpet, sitting on a mattress, or even moving through a room.

7. Vacuum Cleaners (Germ Elimination)
If you have rugs in your home, you should know that they are havens for Bacteria, Mold, and other Germs. They need to be cleaned on a regular basis or they will become toxic waste dumps, especially if you have children.
Using a HEPA Vacuum cleaner will help keep your rugs clean and free from most or all allergens. A Hepa cleaner will filter out exceedingly small particles in the air which cause the most problems for homeowners.

Testing
Indoor Air Quality
The Air in your home is much dirtier than the air outside, regardless of where you live. According to the EPA, the typical air in your home is one of the top Environmental Hazards.
A High Level of Airborne Allergens like Bacteria/Viruses, Dust Mites, Mold Spores, Pet Dander & Pollen can lead to Allergies, Asthma, Cold/Flu Viruses, Sinus Infections & Respiratory Illnesses.
