Wildfire Season

Shop Air Purifiers

A Concerning Issue

According to the National Interagency Fire Center, in 2022, the U.S. experienced 66,255 wildfires, burning a total of 7,534,403 acres across the country. It takes a lot of manpower to keep our lands safe. Every year, the U.S. Forest Service sends over 10,000 firefighters to help protect our homes and natural habitats. While not all of us can fight the fires directly, we can take steps to help keep ourselves safe and healthy throughout wildfire season.

Ways to Protect Your Home

  • The Benefits of an Air Purifier

    While these steps will ensure you are ready in case of an emergency, air purifiers offer even greater security and peace of mind, refreshing your air with powerful fan speeds and high-quality filtration. Purchasing the right model is essential for protecting your home from wildfire smoke. Home air purifiers can quickly filter a wide variety of airborne contaminants, cleaning the air in your home before pollutants can negatively impact your health.

    Among other things, air purifiers

    • Filter hazardous materials like soot or ash in the air
    • Help relieve asthma symptoms
    • Reduce the transmission of airborne diseases
    • Help neutralize unpleasant household odors

What to Look For

  • True HEPA Filtration

    H13 True HEPA Filters offer medical grade filtration, capturing at least 99.97% of airborne particles 0.3 microns in size. These fiberglass filters protect you from smoke particles like ash and soot.

  • High-Efficiency Activated Carbon Filters

    While a standard carbon filter offers some protection against smoke, High-Efficiency Activated Carbon Filters are significantly more capable at filtering harmful compounds spread by wildfires. The high concentration of carbon pellets offers more effective filtration over a longer period of time.

  • Clean Air Delivery Rate

    CADR is an important metric when assessing an air purifier’s ability to filter hazardous materials in smoke. Results are typically measured in cubic meters per hour (m³/h). The higher the number, the quicker the air purifier can refresh the air in the room.
