How an Air Purifier Can Help Ease Asthma

Imagine going about your daily routine and suddenly you're stopped short. You feel a tightness in your chest as your lungs swell, your airway narrows, and it becomes extremely difficult to breathe. You begin to wheeze and cough. You have difficulty speaking and begin to feel anxious.

A scenario like this can be difficult to imagine. However, for eight percent of the American population, this is a daily reality. These are the common symptoms of an asthma attack. Asthma attacks range in length and severity. Some episodes are extremely mild, while others may require immediate medical attention. Because asthma symptoms can be serious and potentially life-threatening, it is imperative to consider what substances trigger your asthma and understand how an air purifier can help.

Austin Air Purifiers: The Logical Solution 

How an Air Purifier Can Help With Your Asthma

Using an air purifier to help manage your asthma may not seem like a logical solution. However, many asthma attacks are triggered by common household irritants like pollen, mold spores, pet dander, and dust mites. An Austin Air Purifier is capable of removing up to 99 percent of airborne contaminants, making it a logical addition to asthma symptom management.

 

Common Asthma Triggers

There are many different things that can trigger asthma symptoms, and triggers can vary from person to person. For some individuals, a simple change in weather can bring on asthma symptoms. However, the most common asthma triggers are pollutants and irritants in the air.

As many as 80 percent of individuals who suffer from asthma also have allergies. Often, allergies can trigger serious asthma symptoms. Common allergens include mold spores, pet dander, pollen, dust mites, insect droppings, and volatile organic compounds (commonly known as VOCs).

Many of these common allergens enter your home through open doors and windows and even on your shoes. The addition of an air purifier to your home will help virtually eliminate these particles from the air in your home. An air purifier works to remove airborne allergens giving you control over both your asthma and your allergies.
