Winix: The Clean Air Coworker

No matter if you work remotely, hybrid or in an office setting – the quality of air you breathe is very important.  Last year, many Americans began heading back into the office and new methods were put in place to ensure a safer environment for employees.  What was new is now the standard for many workspaces and that includes the addition of an Air Purifier.

Active airflow enhances air quality and helps filter out contaminants. Germs and viruses commonly spread through droplets when we cough, sneeze, talk, and breathe. These droplets either evaporate quickly or remain suspended in the air. Due to their small nature, proper filtration is needed to capture these tiny particles. While opening windows for ventilation isn’t always possible during the warm summer months, the use of an air purifier is both useful and practical.

Introducing an air purifier increases the circulation and filtration of an office environment – while also tackling odors and allergens. Bringing an air purifier into your office increases the air quality you and your coworkers breathe, especially if opening windows isn’t an option. Before your company purchases an air purifier, it’s important to know that not all air purifiers are made equally. To ensure the highest quality of air, both a True HEPA filter and Activated Carbon Filter is needed. This powerful combination specifically captures airborne contaminants and odors.

A True HEPA Filter is the only type of HEPA filter that is certified to capture particles as small as 0.003 microns. A Winix True HEPA filter captures 99.99% of airborne allergens including pollen, dust, pet dander and smoke. An Activated Carbon Filter is the only type of filter that captures odor. A Winix Activated Carbon Filter reduces odors and the presences of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs). Carbon filters are designed to catch airborne particles you’d find indoors and helps prolong the lifespan of the True HEPA Filter.

Incorporating an air purifier helps in many areas of the office. The increased air circulation leaves the space feeling less stuffy and the reduction of allergens leaves sufferers feeling at ease. The right air purifier with the correct filters is the perfect clean air coworker.
