Indoor Air Is Far Dirtier Than You Think

  • Indoor air is typically five to ten times more polluted than outdoor air due to trapped emissions and lack of natural airflow.
  • We breathe ~17,000 times daily, so poor indoor air delivers massive cumulative exposure to toxins.
ANECDOTE

From Disaster Cleanup To Home Air Scrubbing

  • After disaster restorations Mike brought industrial air scrubbers home and noticed immediate 'mountain fresh' air in his basement.
  • That inspired a four-year mission to build a quiet, beautiful residential air scrubber people would actually use.
INSIGHT

Homes Trap Off‑Gassing From Manufactured Materials

  • Modern homes trap emissions from manufactured materials (carpets, furniture, paints) that continually off-gas VOCs.
  • Energy-efficient construction prioritizes thermal comfort over air exchange, raising indoor pollutant loads.
