Springtime is my favorite time of the whole year. I feel so refreshed as the snow starts to melt, and the weather warms up. I love all the beautiful flowers and blossoms on the trees. I can finally get outside with my kids for bike riding, sidewalk chalk, and long family walks. Even though I welcome spring with open arms I don’t welcome the wicked allergies that come with it. Unfortunately, my entire family suffers from spring allergies. Especially now that we live in Colorado where the air is drier and dust seems to be more prevalent. We seem to sneeze and have itchy eyes more than ever before.
To combat our spring allergies I try to dust and vacuum often. I also wash our sheets, towels, and bedding at least once a week. But our life really changed once we started using a Honeywell Air Purifier. Even with all my vacuuming I had no idea that I was potentially releasing, even more, allergens into the air!
I love our Honeywell True HEPA Allergen Remover. I have noticed a huge decrease in the sneezing around our house since we started using it. It is a medium size air purifier and is the perfect size for every room in my home. It is lightweight so I can move it from the living room to a bedroom easily. It is also super efficient and captures 99.97% of microscopic allergens, reduces odors, VOCs (volatile organic compounds) and certain germs.
Our Honeywell Air Purifier is also super easy to use. After I have plugged it in and hit the power button a fan turns on that is constantly drawing in pollutants. There are two different filters that gather all the smells, dust, and other particles leaving behind cleaner air! With all the work that the air purifier is doing it is super quiet! I barely notice it while my kids are playing or while I am working around the house.
There are four different air cleaning options: germ, general clean, allergen, and turbo. I can also program it to have an automatic shut-off for 2, 4, or 8 hours. I love this feature because sometimes I get busy around the house and running errands. I just set the timer and know I don’t have to worry about it.
The control panel also has blue lights that are easy to read so you know exactly what setting you are on. The lights also have a dimming option.
The Honeywell True Allergen HEPA Allergen Remover Air Purifier is really amazing. It has saved my family from spring allergies and we are able to enjoy all the best parts of spring with less sneezing.
