  • EPA Sues Coal-Fired Utility On Emissions

    Insufficient Air Purifier Technology at Rush Island
    Last week the Environment Protection Agency (EPA), through the Department of Justice (DOJ), filed a lawsuit against Ameren Missouri and their sulfur dioxide-emitting, coal powered utility at Rush Island. The EPA alleges that the plant emissions violate the Clean Air Act, excessively polluting air quality. The suit claims that a decade ago, Ameren performed modifications without obtaining required permits and did not install the most advanced air purifier technologies for controlling pollution emissions available at the time. As a result, Rush Island produces excess harmful sulfur dioxide emissions. In response, Ameren argues that a[...]

  • Republicans Introduce Legislation To Allow More Air Pollution, Not Less

    EPA Air Purifier and Air Cleaner Monitoring
    In 2010, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) declared that it was critical to control of greenhouse gases because of the negative impact on air quality. They pointed out that these gases are a very serious public health threat. Since Republicans took control of the Congress and House in January, proposals have been made to remove the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) from regulating greenhouse polluting industries. If passed, air pollution emissions from coal and cement plants may continue as they exist today without improvements from air purifier or air cleaner technologies monitored by EPA regulation.
    The[...]

  • Inversion Traps Pollution Causing Health Problems

    The HealthMate Plus Air Purifier Reduces Health Risks
    When warm air is sitting on cold air, it is called an inversion. Inversions trap high concentrations of pollutants and reduce air quality. To avoid inhaling excessive pollutants, don't exert yourself outdoors. With indoor air contamination levels 3 to 10 times higher that outdoors, use an air purifier. We recommend the HealthMate Plus.
    Temperature Inversions
    In the winter months, cold air can lay closest to the ground while the warm air is above. This is called a temperature inversion, because normally they are reversed. A dense layer of cold air along with polluting contamination is[...]

  • Direct Connection Between Indoor Air Contamination and Cardiovascular Disease

    The HealthMate Plus Removes the Health Risks
    Ongoing research continues to confirm that poor air quality negatively impacts our health, particularly the cardiovascular system. The connection between air pollution leading to an increased risk of cardiovascular disease is not new. However, a more direct connection between indoor air contamination to this disease has been found in a recent study.
    This study concludes that the simple removal of tiny contaminates will reduce health risks. Select a high quality air purifier like the HealthMate Plus. This air cleaner has High Efficiency Particulate Arresting (HEPA) filtering for the removal of microscopic particles with a blend[...]

  • EPA Formaldehyde Report

    Cancer and Other Health Effects From Formaldehyde
    On June 2, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) released a human health assessment draft report on inhalation toxicity from formaldehyde. The report identifies levels of risk formaldehyde (a chemical widely used and contained in many consumer products) poses to Americans' health.
    The EPA concludes that formaldehyde is more likely to cause health problems than previously understood. The report identifies the dangerous non-cancerous and cancerous impacts on our health from breathing formaldehyde.
    With this gas all around us from and from many sources, it is important to purify the indoor air of this chemical gas. High-quality[...]
