We all have a different home structure, variable number of pets, different types and amounts of insulation, different duct systems, and more. This means finding what works best for you depends on identifying what sorts of problems your home deals with. If your home is poorly ventilated, the odds are high that filtration and purification are the ideal solutions.

The range of relative humidity in your home is impacted by how well-sealed your home is, and what type of HVAC equipment you use. If your home is well-sealed and you use central cooling, for example, you probably deal with very dry air, making a humidifier the right call. Other homes may be poorly sealed, leading to outdoor humidity getting in, which might necessitate a dehumidifier.

It really is, yes. The topic has been extensively tackled by the EPA for decades, and studies point strongly toward indoor air quality impacting respiratory health, and even mood and productivity.

This question stems primarily from the very early days of air purifiers, which had the unfortunate side-effect of producing ozone. Today’s systems can, and should be, certified ozone-free or low-ozone before they’re used in a residential setting. For example, the HALO LED we offer at Stashluk is rated ozone-free!
