Air Purifier ABC’s

We all understand why we need to keep the air clean. But more than the experience of clean air, our generation has experienced air that isn’t free from impurities. We may not be able to see the impurities present in the air through the naked eye, but the results of breathing such impure air are quite evident. Most of us may know what an air purifier is about. It is used to turn indoor impure air, into clean air. But have we understood the hazards of not having one? Let’s study the basics.

What causes air to become impure?

Tobacco smoke, dust, pollen, pesticides, mold, beauty products, cleaning products, mildew, pet dander, radon (a gaseous element), furniture, carpets, dust due to any kind of construction, air fresheners and smoke emitted from industries and vehicles. All these are the sources of air pollution.

Dust alone can be very harmful to the lungs. Millions of dust particles easily enter our lungs through our nose and mouth. Repeated exposure to dust can easily stimulate allergic reactions in a person. Pollution due to dust can be controlled indoors using a dust removal air purifier.

The long term and short term effects of these pollutants are:

- Irritation of the eyes, nose and throat

- Headaches, dizziness and fatigue

- Respiratory diseases like pneumonia, asthma and others

- Cancer

- Heart diseases

The amount of impurities present in the air is increasing day by day. Some of the sources of pollution can be prevented by human intervention but others are just natural and cannot be controlled. At Oxynet Solutions you will be able to find an indoor air purifier for every air purification need that may arise in your home.

UV Benefits

Much emphasis has been placed over the years on UV rays being very harmful. But did you know that these rays are very useful to us at times and have many benefits? UV radiations of different intensities are used by us in different ways. Some of the benefits of UV radiation are as follows:

Vitamin D from natural sunlight is essential for our bones. It is used in fluorescent lamps for the treatment of neonatal jaundice and psoriasis. UV lamps are also used to sterilize tools, laboratories, offices, etc. It has also been implemented in drinking water treatment plants. UV radiation is also employed in air cleaners. They remove harmful airborne substances and prevent many health hazards from affecting our respiratory system.

The benefits of using ultraviolet air purifiers were first realized in the 1990’s. Now- a- days they are available in various sizes to be utilized in different settings. In order to know how a UV air purifier works, you need to understand the functions of UV rays in destroying pollutants. UV rays use its energy to break down the organic molecular bond of a micro-organism. This destroys the micro-organism from its roots. It uses the same mechanism to destroy harmful particles. Thus it emits air that is free from pollutants like smoke, pollens, pet dander, dust, dust-mites, molds and allergens. It also kills micro-organisms like viruses, bacteria and fungi.

Maintaining UV air purifiers are easy, especially when your air purifier is from a reputed company. The air purifiers from Oxynet Solutions have helped solve many respiratory problems and have left a positive impression on their customers.

Is your Child Suffering from an Allergy?

The incidence of allergies in children has increased more than ever in the last decade. According to child hospital admissions, asthma has become the number 1 diagnosis. If your child has an allergy problem, there is a good chance that he or she is suffering heavily at school. Even children who are around 6 months old are no exception to allergies. Thus it is very essential for such children to have a plan that can manage and cure this problem. Parents need to take all the necessary precautions every time and every day for such children like stopping people from smoking in the house, repairing leakages, etc. You can use the classic HEPA air purifiers like many others do, to help eradicate the allergens in your home.

Dr. Laura Schlessinger once said-“If you don’t have an air purifier, you are the air purifier.”

Parents often complain about their children having running noses, watery eyes without any evidence of a viral infection. They also complain about their child scarcely having a full nights rest. These are exactly the symptoms we need to look out for in children. Exposure to pets, flowers and insects can also trigger these symptoms. Air purifiers have the ability to clean indoor air of all the harmful particles that can be inhaled by your child. Asthma air purifiers are especially good for children suffering from the same. They are also a good buy.

You can choose from a range of different types of air purifiers for your home from Oxynet Solutions. Just give us a call. We would be happy to help.

Allergies and Air Purifiers

Allergies have a history that dates back to the early 3300 BC. Britannicus, the son of the Roman Emperor Claudius was allergic to horses. He would develop a rash and his eyes would swell making it unable for him to see where he was going. Earlier, many were afraid to consume, shellfish or milk for the hives these foods left on a few people. But today, we have become knowledgeable enough to understand that these foods don’t harm everyone.

Allergy is basically a disorder of the immune system. Some allergic reactions include conjunctivitis, runny nose and sinusitis. The causes of such allergies are abnormal physical over reactions to allergens like dust, pollen, nuts, bees, etc. These allergens are just normally harmless substances that can be life threatening to some if not treated immediately. Developing allergies is also seasonal to some extent. If you had it last year, there is a good chance you might have it again this year during the same season. Employing an air purifier for your relief is a good way to prepare for the new season. An allergy air purifier can only help while you are indoors. Therefore, you also need to take care of your self outdoors. The pollen and pollution you face only aggravates the symptoms. An air cleaner is especially necessary for children with allergies. They usually need to concentrate in class. They have a tough time getting things done because of the excess sneezing, coughing and uneasiness.

This is why we need to take the advice of a doctor and take interest in long term control of this physical over reaction. A vast majority of doctors recommend HEPA air purifiers. Many companies sell such air purifiers one better than the other. Visit our website to find out more about how Oxynet Solutions can help you.

Shifting places?

Our new home carries our dreams, aspirations and a pleasant insight of flourishing our family and career together. For every individual it also spells the efforts of making a living and a reason of existence. None of us will want anything to ruin it for us, not even the dust particles or the chemicals in indoor air.

In an emirate like Dubai, thousands of folks shift-in for job purposes round the year. When we shift to new homes or to a new place, we prefer using everything new and this is not different for furniture too. Formaldehyde is commonly found in newly made or polished wood furniture. It triggers problems like asthma. New homes or even the renovated ones contain paints, adhesives and many more chemical products. The chemicals in these products contain volatile organic compounds [VOC’s], which gives rise to various ill-effects for health. Skin rashes, constant cold and cough, watery eyes are a few other reactions caused due to these volatile organic compounds [VOC’s]. Styrene is another compound which is also believed to be harmful. It generally has its origin in new carpets. Using a HEPA filter air purifier neutralizes the chemicals these particles emit, ensuring that you breathe clean and fresh air.

An air purifier like Oxynet B777 by Oxynet solutions is ideal to deal with these chemicals and keep the indoor air clean and healthy. We are one of the best air-purifier suppliers across UAE. Breathe fresh air with Oxynet.
