When my neighbor was telling me that I should invest in HEPA filters, I completely laughed at him.
He seemed drastic and asked why I was even laughing.
I told me that there were all kinds of benefits to using HEPA filters. I told him I was laughing because all air filters are basically the same and the more expensive 1s are just a scam to get your money. He told me he begged to differ. He told me that HEPA filters pull 99.9% of the contaminants from the air. When I asked him how he knew they could pull that much. I also asked him why they couldn’t pull 100% of the contaminants, what was up with that .1%? He said it would be impossible to pull all the contaminants even though it was actually a little less than 99.9%. I felt enjoy I couldn’t trust the HEPA filters for the self-explanatory fact that they boasted they could pull so many contaminants from the air, however my neighbor said I had to try them to see for myself. He even told me he would spend my savings for me to have 1 HEPA filter. He wasn’t lying too, he got me a HEPA filter the next day and I installed it. I told him it wouldn’t make much of a difference. Well, he even had a gadget that measures the air quality. He sampled the air quality in my home and had me write down the number, so I could legitimately see how much my air quality would improve. About 2 weeks later, he worked on the air quality again in my condo and it was phenomenal. I didn’t even need that gadget to tell me, my neighbor was right. I felt superb having cleaner breathing air and I decided I would invest in HEPA filters moving forward.
