What is a HEPA filter?
Why is it better to use a HEPA if you have alllergies and/or asthma?
What percentage of Atlanta Cleaning companies HEPA Compliant?
Wiki defines the Definition of HEPA as high efficiency particulate air.
According to a recent article at comeunity HEPA filters are what the true experts use, Doctors and hospitals. Since they are the ones who treat severe allergies and asthma, they are the standard. They are far more affective in removing pet dander, dust mites along with mold spores, smoke and pollen. Depending upon the type of vacuum, if it is not HEPA compliant, it will spread some of this debris back into the home. Another article at medicinenet cites a clinical study were showed that cardiovacular performance was improved due to the removal of small particles from the indoor atmosphere.
Out of over 200 known Atlanta Cleaning companies, we only know of 2 others that are HEPA compliant. That means there are a lot of companies who are spreading around dust and contiminants from house to house. For small children or people with allergies or asthma this opens up
unnecessary risk. The problem with most residential cleaning companies is they are not willing to invest profits into safer technology for their customers. The reason being is HEPA technology is not cheap. Some units cost between $500 - $1000 to purchase and that is with company discounts. At Amazon, we see our customers as a long term investment and therefore come prepared with sanitized, child and pet friendly chemicals and top of the line HEPA equipment.
