Toxic Wildfire Smoke

Remove Toxic Wildfire Smoke From Your Homes Indoor Air

Most people do not realize how dangerous and reactive wildfire smoke is and how it can weaken the respiratory and immune system in many different ways. Wildfire smoke dangers include two major factors that can damage your health. They are the particulates of the wild smoke itself and the toxic chemicals that are deeply imbedded into the smoke.

The airborne particulates and the toxic chemicals in wildfire smoke can be a major irritant to the lungs to then travel through the body's respiratory system, heart and even into the digestive system to cause many health problems that trigger allergic reactions, asthma and COPD flair ups that can have a major effect on the ability to breathe, think and see properly.

 Where The Toxins In Smoke Are Coming From

Exposures to the many toxic chemicals in wildfire smoke can cause major damage to the body's immune system! The cocktail of toxic chemicals imbedded into wildfire smoke are limitless due to what chemicals are being burned on the terrain and from the structures that are being burned and wiped out!

Just a few of these hazardous chemicals include herbicides used to destroy weeds that include Glyphosate (Roundup), Triclopyr, Amine 2,4-D, Imazapyr. A whopping 280 million pounds of Gyphosate otherwise known as roundup is sprayed onto over 298 million acres of land and around homes and buildings each and every year to destroy weeds.

Other dangerous toxins that burn in wildfire smoke include a huge list of many different types of pesticides that are sprayed and applied in dust form onto crops, fields, wooded areas and into peoples homes and adjoining structures to kill insects.

Other hazardous toxic chemicals that burn and are imbedded into wildfire smoke include sulfur dioxide, hydrocarbons, styrene, dioxins, heavy metals and solvents in burning paints, stains, calking and other building materials that include benzene, toluene and xylene.

  3. When coming indoors from the toxic smoke outdoor environment change your clothes while isolating your contaminated clothing in sealed plastic bags until they are ready to be washed.

The two best manufacturers of HEPA air purifiers to remove indoor wildfire smoke and the chemicals located within the smoke are by Airpura And Austin Air. Both of these HEPA air purifiers will do a good job for removing wildfire smoke and odors.

 However the Airpura 700 series of HEPA air purifiers are more powerful to provide a higher air exchange rate per hour, they are noticeably quieter and they contain additional pounds of both treated and untreated activated carbon to absorb outgassing chemicals and the chemicals imbedded in wildfire smoke. The (Made In Canada) Airpura models to check out are the C700, C700 DLX and the V700. Check out the UV700 HEPA and P700 HEPA air purifiers that also includes a non ozone producing UV ultraviolet light system and new technology that quickly destroys biological contaminants that include Airborne viruses, bacteria and toxic mold spores.

These Chinese brands include Honeywell, Vornado, Blueair, Dyson, Coway, IQ Air, Shark, Levoit, Germ Guardian and many others! All of these air purifiers are not sealed well against leakage. Almost all of these units have a very low air exchange rate per hour even in very small rooms and minute amounts of activated carbon in them if any at all for odor and chemical absorption.
