Why Whole House Air Purifiers Are Better Than Portable Units

Monday, May 20th, 2024

In California, poor air quality is a persistent challenge for residents across the state. One significant contributor is the state’s unique topography, which includes valleys that trap pollutants, creating stagnant air masses. California experiences frequent temperature inversions, where warm air aloft acts as a lid, preventing pollutants from dispersing. This phenomenon is exacerbated by the state’s abundant vehicle traffic, industrial activity, and wildfires, which release harmful emissions such as particulate matter, ozone, and volatile organic compounds into the atmosphere.

Many homeowners try to make do with portable air purifiers, but these have their limitations. Let’s go over why you should invest in whole house UV air purifier services in Clovis.
