The air we breathe contains particles that may be allergens:
m
ite larvae and droppings, mould, pollen, smoke and animal
residues (hair, skin, saliva, urine). The smallest particles
p
enetrate deep into the respiratory system where they can
cause inflammation and lung impairment.(H)EPA filters (High
E
fficiency Particulate Air) are used to filter out the smallest
particles. With the (H)EPA filter, the air released back into the
room is healthier than the air that is vacuumed.
