The Rise in Demand for Air Purifiers Amid Canadian Wildfires
The COVID-19 pandemic has shed light on various concerns, and one prominent issue is indoor air quality. As a result, people across America have been turning to portable air systems to improve airflow exchange and filter out airborne contaminants. This surge in demand has caused a scarcity in the portable air purification market. Unfortunately, the situation has been exacerbated by the devastating wildfires that have been ravaging areas of Canada. Residents find it increasingly challenging to combat smoke-related health issues within their homes and businesses.
Health Risks Posed by Wildfire Smoke
According to the American Lung Association, smoke and ash from wildfires can have severe consequences for lung health, particularly for vulnerable populations such as the elderly, children, and individuals with respiratory problems. The small particle size, the presence of carbon monoxide (CO), and nitrogen oxide in smoke all contribute to these health risks.
A common solution to address air quality issues caused by wildfires is the use of HEPA air purifiers. These devices are capable of filtering out small particles, as well as eliminating smoke-related gases and odors. However, the COVID-19 pandemic has caused a shortage of air purifiers nationwide, partly due to air quality regulations imposed by many states in businesses and schools. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends the continuous use of portable air cleaners in one or more rooms to protect against wildfire smoke during the pandemic. Unfortunately, many individuals and businesses have been unable to acquire these devices due to the recent shortfall.
The Growing Demand for Air Purifiers
Google Trends data shows that searches for air purifiers have reached their highest point in the past five years. A recent report predicts that the air purifier industry will continue to grow until 2027 due to increasing pollution in urban areas and the prevalence of airborne diseases. To meet this demand, EnviroKlenz®, a Florida-based company with decades of experience in indoor air quality solutions, has expanded its operations to support customers and businesses affected by wildfires.
