With spring here, many allergy sufferers are facing that big bad ol’ pollen and dealing with the side effects. If you have an air filter, you know that they can make you feel so much more comfortable and improve your quality of life. Your family can enjoy a higher quality of air, better breathing and deeper sleep – often right from the very start when you use an air filter. There are a number of places to consider using an air filter you might not be using one that are ideal to add to your life – especially if you suffer from allergies and asthma.

Baby or Child’s Room. Many children do inherit their parent’s allergies or asthma. You can make your children far more comfortable as they age with the addition of an air filter. Most air filters will remove important irritants like second hand smoke – things you don’t want in your child’s lungs. If you’ve moved into a new home or an apartment, adding an air purifier in their room can be an ideal choice especially to help clean the air right from the very start. Children may not notice any great difference, but their parents can often notice that they are sleeping through the night, that they have less bronchial infections and that they don’t seem to catch “bugs” as often. When you have a better quality of air, you simply feel better.

The Office. This is another excellent place to add an air filter. Now I have a confession to make: I added an air filter when my boss built me my own office and I needed to get rid of the dust and paint fumes. At first they noticed the box on the floor. But it was a quiet box on the floor. And I noticed that my energy level was higher, focus was stronger and I felt more energized but also a bit more relaxed. Why? Because I was breathing better. The air filter cleaned my office from dust within a long weekend, a great convenience. But I kept that air filter in my office the entire time I worked for them. An air filter in your office can offer a lot of benefits and take up minimal space.

Family Room. The family room is often one of the main rooms the family spends time. Yet when we buy air filters we often place them in our bedrooms. If you are spending a lot of time in the family room, an air filter for this room is an excellent choice. Your family will feel more energized and will breathe better overall. You’ll notice that you are less affected by seasonal allergies, mold or pet hair.  Whether watching television, playing a board game or just “being family” together – everyone will appreciate the subtle difference.

Guest Room. This is an ideal place to add an air filter as you entertain your guests will be quite comfortable breathing high quality air. They may compliment you on how well they sleep, at first thinking they are just very relaxed in your home or that you cooked them a delicious home cooked meal to soothe them to sleep. But you’ll know that the real difference is the air filter beside their bed. Best of all as the air filter is quite and easy to use, your guest will have no trouble using the air filter. If they wish to change the setting to low or high they can do this easily. The air filter is simple and convenient for everyone to use. Putting one in your guest room makes you the ideal host, one where guests will look forward to returning time and time again.

Summer is one of the most popular times to go on vacation. And whether you are spending a week at the shore or in a cabin by the mountains, we bet you’d like to take your air filter with you! It’s easy to take your air filter with you on summer vacation and a great way to keep your breathing comfortable and easy.

One of the biggest challenges of going to any new environment for an allergy or asthma sufferer if you wonder if something is going to trigger your allergies. Whether it is too much dust, a little mold in the air or someone’s pet that was staying there – a potential allergen could be lurking to bother you. Certainly not something any of us like to deal with on summer vacation.

If you are renting a house for vacation, it is very easy to bring your air purifier filter. Consider asking the people you are renting from if you can plug in your air filter. Air filters don’t use a lot of electricity so they likely won’t have any reason to say no to your request. Simply add it to your supplies when you pack the car. Remember to bring an extra air filter in case you wish to change it. Protect your air filter during travel by wrapping it securely, either in a box or surrounding it with towels or other protective padding.

If you are staying in a hotel or other location, you may want to ask if you can bring it. Some locations may be curious if you appear, ready to plug something in. But if you have gotten permission ahead of time to bring it, then it will be smooth sailing the whole way. It is far easier to ask ahead than it is to stand at check in and ask someone to consider your request.

If you are staying in someone’s home, you can probably bring your air filter. Ask them ahead of time. You are doing your host a kindness by bringing your air filter as an allergy or asthma sufferer because it means you will be more comfortable – and most hosts worry about their guests comfort. Ask them where you should plug it in.

Today’s air filters are comfortable and convenient. You can count on them to clean a large room and to be powerful and strong. They are not troublesome to carry with you on a vacation. While most of us don’t like to think of carrying our air filter everywhere, the thought of living without our air filters once we have one is often unimaginable.

The first time I brought my air filter on vacation my family fussed a little bit. One family member thought I was being a little particular by bringing it with me. But I knew that I would sleep so much better by having it with me. And I was glad that I did. We stayed in a cottage by the shore, with a bit of a mold problem. While everyone else was okay and just complained about the smell – I am allergic to mold. Without that air filter, I wouldn’t have been able to enjoy my vacation fully. With my antihistamine and the air filter, I could stay on vacation and spend time with my family.

No matter where you go, enjoy your vacation and we hope that you breathe a little easier with your air filter by your side.

If your college student suffers from allergies or asthma, a smart purchase can be an air purifier. Some parents may wonder if they should get their college student an air purifier. How do you know it is the best time to get them a purifier?

Any student can benefit from an air filter purifier, not just one who has allergies or asthma. People with air purifier tend to breathe easier and sleep sounder. If your college student has lots of tests and projects, it would please many parents to know they’d be able to sleep more soundly the night before a big test or to be breathing easier regularly. Some dorms have things an air filter can help to purify such as cigarette smoke and cooking smells. As you can see, there are many reasons to get an air purifier for your college student. Not simply for the college student with allergies or asthma.

It is important that an air purifier be treated with proper care. If your college student is known for misplacing things or not treating their belongings well, you may need to explain how to care for an air filter. Caring for an air filter is not difficult but not using it properly will mean it does not work effectively. Don’t hang clothing or other objects over it. Don’t sit or lean on it. The best thing to do with your air filter is to put it in a corner or part of the room where it can be out of the way of regular activity. Many college students are social and like to have friends in their rooms. Friends need to understand that the air filter needs to be treated properly.

The air filter needs to be changed occasionally so it works best. For most users this will be several times a year. It is probably most convenient for college parents to give their college student the air filter with several air filters to change when they need changing. This way they are ready to change the air filter as needed. Or give them ordering instructions so they know how to order them and understand when a refill will be needed.

Don’t be surprised if you hear from your college student that they are getting a better night’s sleep. They may feel better overall, a sign that they are just breathing better and more deeply. If others smoke in the dorm or cooking smells have bothered them, these may no longer be experienced. It is very pleasing to know the air filter is doing its job well.

An air purifier is the ideal gift for any college student; they will appreciate your thoughtfulness.

Many people are quite familiar with April Fool’s Day. That popular day dedicated to pranksters. Lots of people like to poke gentle fun at the folks in their life on April 1^st saying, “April Fools” and doing a funny prank to make them laugh.

Well it’s no prank to run out of air filters during spring allergy season. There’s nothing like suffering from your spring allergies and knowing you need a refill for your air filter. Don’t be the April Fool and let your air filter run out, causing you to suffer while waiting for your refill to arrive. This challenge is easier to avoid than one might think. Let’s talk about some tips to avoid being the April Fool:

Order a refill now for your air filter. Yes you may not need an air filter now, but having an air filter available right at your fingertips when you do need it is a great convenience. During springtime allergy season, your air filter works harder than usual. You must expect that air filter refill to fill up quicker than during other times. It’s the savvy allergy sufferer who prepares and plans for allergy season in the springtime.

Don’t be shy about paying for rush shipping. Most of us like to avoid these expenses when we order products that we need. But when it comes to a refill for your air filter, you probably really want to get that quickly. Spending a week or even three days suffering from allergy symptoms and being uncomfortable as you aren’t able to use your air filter simply isn’t worth it. Having that air filter on hand by choosing rush shipping is the savvier choice for most. If you haven’t ordered ahead – consider ordering quickly.

When you do order refills for your air filter, don’t just order one but order two or three. Some choose to order them one at a time because of course we use them one at a time. But if you keep a few on stock at all times this will mean that you are ready the moment you need an air filter refill. It also means the next time you order air filter refills will be far less stressful, that you can do it at a time that is convenient to you. Order them as your air filter is working well for you. Instead of ordering it when your air filter refill has been completely used and you need another one immediately.

Save on shipping and order with a friend. Try to order air filter refills with a friend so you can save on shipping costs. You probably have friends and family who use air filters just like you do. If you order air filter refills at the same time, your shipping costs can be split down the middle instead of paying shipping costs for the two of you.

So don’t be an April Fool and suffer through springtime allergy season with no air filter refill. Plan ahead if you can – or plan ahead for the next time!
