With the heat wave, the air quality keeps deteriorating. Due to light wind and no rain, the pollution particles in the air are not cleaned and keep accumulating in the upper atmosphere below the ground. Due to extreme temperatures, forest fires spread, which further increases the AQI level.
According to the Dyson Global Connected Data report, PM 2.5 has been recorded at average annual levels for more than half the year in India, which is higher than the World Health Organisation (WHO) standards.
Formaldehyde in indoor air
Formaldehyde is a colorless gas that is a chemical that is released from many different household items. Formaldehyde-based resins in furniture and wood products, such as plywood and fiberboard, insulating materials, do-it-yourself products, such as paint, wallpaper, varnish, and household cleaning products all release formaldehyde gas.
More toxic gases are released during heatwaves
During the hot season, the rate of release of this toxic gas increases a lot, due to which the quantity of this gas inside the house increases. Therefore, it is very important to take effective measures to remove indoor air pollution.
The Dyson Purifier Cool Formaldehyde TP 09 not only detects formaldehyde in the air with its intelligent solid state sensor, but also eliminates it with Dyson’s Selective Catalytic Oxidation (SCO) filter. Its intelligent algorithm identifies formaldehyde very accurately among other VOCs.
Pollution occurs due to daily activities in the house
Pollution occurs due to daily activities inside the house, pollution from outside also enters the house. Pollution particles keep coming out from the surfaces inside the house, due to which a complex mixture of pollution particles is formed. These chemical activities happen even more rapidly in the scorching heat.
Air purifier will be beneficial
Air purifiers can help remove indoor pollution. Modern filtration technologies such as HEPA and carbon filters can remove a large number of polluting particles, such as dust, pollen, pet dander, smoke, and VOCs. Dyson’s latest machines offer full-machine HEPA filtration so that no polluting particles that enter the air can escape.
