What is a Whole-Home Air
Cleaner?
There are many types of air cleaners (also refered
to as air purifiers or ionizers) on the market
today but none are as effective and clean your
entire house as well as an Aprilaire Air Cleaning
system. Aprilaire Whole-Home Air Cleaners make
your air as clean as possible by removing
particulates from your air, allowing you to
breathe healthier air — important to those with
allergies and asthma and for those who want the
cleanest air possible for themselves and their
family. An Aprilaire Air Cleaner installed by your
heating and cooling contractor, can help rid your
home of dust, dust mites, pet dander, mold spores,
pollen, bacteria and viruses, smoke and more! |

How Does It Work?
Aprilaire Whole-House Air Cleaners are installed
as part of your home’s central heating and
cooling system — completely out of your way
and out-of-sight. That means each and every time
your system runs, the air in your home is
filtered through our state-of-the-art filter
media removing potentially harmful
contaminants from every room of your home.
The resulting clean air is
then distributed via your heating and cooling
system’s ductwork to your entire home. Best
yet, the system is easy to maintain with
infrequent maintenance only required every 1-2
years unlike portable units that require monthly
care or standard filters that need cleaning
every 1-3 months.
Turn your central heating and cooling
system into a whole-house air cleaner with
Aprilaire!
“Poor indoor air quality can cause or
contribute to the development of chronic
respiratory diseases such as asthma and
hypersensitivity pneumonitis. In addition, it
can cause headaches, dry eyes, nasal congestion,
nausea and fatigue. People who already have
respiratory diseases are at greater risk.”
Why do you need whole-house air cleaning?
Consider this:
- Each person inhales over 3,500 gallons of
air each day. Children inhale more particles
for their size then adolescents or adults.
- Polluted air causes 94% of all respiratory
problems.
- More than 31 million Americans have been
diagnosed with asthma, about 1/3 are
children under 18.
- About 40,000 dust mites, a common
household allergen, can live in one ounce of
dust.
- An estimated 10-15% of the entire
population may be allergic to cat or dog
dander.
- A person sheds up to 700,000 skin flakes
per day.
