More than ever, consumers want a clean, healthy home. The average person spends more than 90% of their time indoors. According to the EPA, indoor air quality is up to 5x worse than outdoor air quality! Portable vacuums can be one of the biggest threats to healthy indoor air due to the recirculation of exhaust air. All the air that comes into a vacuum must come out somewhere. Air purifiers can help, but the best defense is a central vacuum such as one from H-P Products.
Typical portable vacuums exhaust vacuumed air into the living area. You can smell it or see the particles streaming in the sunlight, deteriorating indoor air quality. These particles can aggravate allergies and increase respiratory issues.
A central vacuum is designed to exhaust vacuumed air outside the living area, leaving only clean air left to breathe. With a central vacuum like VACUFLO, Element or Dirt Devil, the vacuumed dirt, dust and allergen particles are whisked through the network of tubing inside the walls to a remote canister in a utility area, away from the living space.
Clinical research by UC Davis has proven that central vacuums reduce allergens & asthma by 61% over the use of a portable vacuum. No more recirculated dust particles and odors lingering in the air.
In addition, central vacuums are not just healthy, they are convenient, too. Retractable hose systems from H-P Products including Chameleon, Spot and Vroom allow every surface in the home to be vacuumed quickly and easily. Visit smartcentralvac.com for more information.
