5 Vacuum Cleaners that Control Allergens

Posted by Admin on

Many people suffer from allergies. Whether they are seasonal allergies or caused by household allergens, many people can be miserable when dealing with the symptoms. In an effort to control allergic reactions, there are measures that can be taken. Finding various ways to reduce the allergens within your home is a great place to start. If you are an allergy sufferer, one household appliance that can actually help with this is your vacuum cleaner.
Many vacuum cleaners come with HEPA filters in them. HEPA is an acronym that stands for “high efficiency particulate air”. This filter is able to trap a great deal of minute particles to prevent them from recirculating back into your home’s air. This makes HEPA filter vacuums a great choice for allergy sufferers. Another benefit to choosing a vacuum cleaner with a HEPA filter is that it can be dumped regularly. This helps control the amount of allergens in your home by eliminating them after each vacuuming.
Your home’s carpet is actually a great environment for bacteria and dust mites. These tiny particles can circulate in the air and aggravate the symptoms of allergy sufferers. Many doctors recommend vacuum cleaners with HEPA filters to their patients. HEPA filters are able to remove 99.97% of the particles in your carpet. The size of these particles can be as small as .3 microns. Most pollen, pet dander, mold, smoke and smog particles are this size or even smaller. So, it’s quite easy to see how this filter helps control allergens.
Vacuum cleaners with HEPA filters can come in upright or canister models. Many people seem to prefer upright models. These seem to be more powerful which helps to suck the allergens out of carpet. Many also like their ability to adjust to carpet height which again helps remove more allergens. The online superstore, Very, offers the Dyson HEPA upright vacuum cleaner which would be a smart choice for those people who suffer from allergies. This model has received the endorsement from the British Allergy Foundation as being a vacuum cleaner that can efficiently and effectively remove allergens from your home.
