Let’s break it down:
Indoor air quality plays a critical role in human health because we spend nearly 90% of our time indoors, where pollutant concentrations can be two to five times higher than outdoors.
​
The gentle truth:
Poor air quality allows particles like dust, mold spores, pet dander, and VOCs to accumulate, which can irritate the lungs, trigger asthma, and worsen allergies. Long-term exposure to pollutants such as formaldehyde or fine particulate matter (PM2.5) has been linked to chronic respiratory diseases, cardiovascular problems, and even cognitive decline. Maintaining good ventilation, using air filtration, and reducing chemical pollutants helps lower these risks, supporting better respiratory health, immune function, and overall well-being.
​
Choose with care:
AirDoctor has UltraHEPA filtration that goes beyond standard HEPA, removing particles as small as 0.003 microns (about 100 times smaller than the typical HEPA benchmark of 0.3 microns) which captures smoke and aerosols. In addition to particle capture, AirDoctor units include a carbon/VOC/gas trap filter layer since HEPA filters alone don’t remove gases, odors, or volatile organic compounds. AirDoctor is a trusted brand for both particulate and chemical indoor pollutants.​
What you'll love:
Breathing healthy air! The auto setting is helpful in providing the right filtration at the right time- without any adjustment necessary. When the indicator light turns yellow or red, it senses something in the air and the speed automatically increases. The dim setting is nice for eliminating light from bedrooms for better sleep as well.
​
What to consider:
The three layers of filters must be changed every 6 months to 1 year; however, vacuuming the top layer monthly to remove hair and dust extends the life of the filters. Check model numbers carefully before ordering, as filters are not interchangeable between models due to size differences and corner notches.
