Fire preparedness has always been top of mind for the majority of homeowners in the western part of the United States—and in the last few years, it’s become an especially hot topic (no pun intended.) Places like California and Colorado face earlier and more intense seasons than ever. Naturally, families are focused on getting ahead of the issue.

How prepared are you? Property owners often think immediately of big upgrades like fire-safe roofing and window frames, automatic sprinklers, or an emergency system that taps into FEMA alerts. These are very real concerns, but the list doesn’t end there. Many property owners overlook pervasive issues like air pollution, which can affect homes for many miles and can linger for weeks after a fire is extinguished.

Many property owners overlook pervasive issues like air pollution, which can affect homes for many miles and can linger for weeks after a fire is extinguished.

More sensitive populations, such as older adults, pregnant women, younger children, and those with preexisting conditions like respiratory illness and heart disease, are even more likely to get sick when air quality is poor.

If you don’t have air conditioning, the air quality inside your home or office may be just as bad as the air quality outside. During fire season, this can be especially problematic, especially if you or a family member suffers from those asthma or allergies.

Brondell’s air purification systems help to reduce particulates in your home or office, providing you with a safer environment—so you can breathe easier.

A Brondell air purifier can remove up to 99.7% of airborne particulates to 0.3 microns in size, including airborne pollen, dust, pet dander, smoke, and mold.
