Asthma and Indoor Air Quality
Asthma affects over 25 million Americans, and indoor air quality is one of the most controllable factors in managing symptoms. The majority of asthma attacks are triggered by airborne particles that can be removed through effective air filtration. The SonoHealth AirPro uses HEPA 14 filtration, the same grade used in hospital cleanrooms, to capture 99.9% of airborne particles down to 0.1 microns. This removes the most common asthma triggers at the source before they reach your airways.Common Asthma Triggers the AirPro Removes
Dust and Dust Mites
Dust mite waste particles (1-10 microns) are one of the most prevalent indoor asthma triggers. The AirPro’s HEPA 14 filter captures these particles along with fine household dust that standard filters miss.Mold Spores
Mold spores (1-30 microns) trigger both allergic and non-allergic asthma responses. The AirPro captures spores on the HEPA 14 filter, and the UV-C function kills them to prevent regrowth and re-release.Pollen
Seasonal pollen (10-100 microns) enters homes through windows, doors, and on clothing. The AirPro rapidly reduces indoor pollen counts, covering 430 sq ft in just 10 minutes.Pet Dander
Pet dander particles (2.5+ microns) are a significant trigger for allergic asthma. The AirPro captures dander that remains airborne for hours after a pet leaves a room.Smoke and Combustion Particles
Cigarette smoke, cooking smoke, candle soot, and fireplace emissions contain ultrafine particles that penetrate deep into the lungs. The HEPA 14 filter captures these particles down to 0.1 microns, while the activated carbon layer absorbs smoke odors and irritating gases.Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs)
Cleaning products, paint, new furniture, and air fresheners release VOCs that irritate airways and trigger asthma symptoms. The AirPro’s activated carbon filter absorbs these chemical compounds, reducing their concentration in indoor air.Night Mode for Uninterrupted Sleep
Nighttime asthma is common, with symptoms often worsening between 2 AM and 6 AM due to circadian changes in airway function. The AirPro’s Night Mode operates at just 25 dB, quieter than a whisper, ensuring clean air delivery throughout the night without disrupting sleep. Poor sleep worsens asthma control, creating a cycle where nighttime symptoms reduce sleep quality, which in turn increases daytime symptom severity. The AirPro breaks this cycle by providing continuous filtration at a noise level that supports restful sleep.3-Stage Filtration for Comprehensive Trigger Removal
The AirPro’s 3-stage system addresses asthma triggers across particle sizes:- Pre-Filter removes large particles like pet hair and lint, protecting the HEPA 14 filter and maintaining airflow.
- HEPA 14 with Antibacterial Coating captures 99.9% of particles at 0.1 microns and above, covering the full range of asthma triggers from fine smoke to pollen.
- Activated Carbon + UV-C absorbs VOCs and chemical irritants while the UV-C function neutralizes biological contaminants captured on the filter.
Important: Complement to Medical Treatment
Air purification is a valuable environmental control measure for asthma management, but it does not replace prescribed medication, inhaler therapy, or your physician’s treatment plan. The AirPro reduces exposure to airborne triggers, which may reduce the frequency and severity of symptoms when used alongside proper medical care. If you or a family member has asthma, consult your healthcare provider about incorporating air purification into your overall asthma management strategy.Comprehensive Respiratory Care from SonoHealth
