We spend approximately 90% of our life on a roof, however, we do not care so much about the quality of the inner air. In addition, interior air quality is up to five times more contaminated than outer air, which It has a direct impact on our health, well -being, productivity and quality of life.
One of the most harmful gases is NO2 (nitrogen dioxide), which It affects respiratory health, causing eye irritation, nose and throat, coughing and difficulty breathing, especially in children, elders and people with asthma or heart problems. Prolonged exposure or very high levels can cause chronic pulmonary damage, increased susceptibility to respiratory infections and even pulmonary edema.
This is especially problematic in homes with gas or chimneys stoves. Unlike outer non₂, which tends to disperse through the wind and atmospheric processes, the interior can be trapped and concentrate on closed spaces.
In Spain, the general levels of NO2 are descending, but If we observe the figures by cities, Barcelona, Madrid, Granada, Valencia, MtoLaga and MurciaThey still have a lot to do in this regard, since they exceed the figures recommended by WHO.
Recently, Dyson presented its De-Nox range of purifiers that capture 50% more of no₂ and favor skin hydration. This line is equipped with K carbon filtration technology (A type of carbon in which each filter filament is made up of a thousand or more threads), uses a combination of physical capture of gas and chemical absorption, trapping 50% more of no than traditional filters. In this way, air quality is improved in domestic spaces, especially in urban areas.
The key is the activated carbon filter, enriched with potassium carbonate (K2CO3), reacts with the NO₂ to form potassium nitrate (KNO3) and carbon dioxide (CO₂). Potassium nitrate remains chemically to the filter, which allows you to capture up to 50% more than traditional coal filterswhich can be “filled” and need a more regular replacement.
Pollutants such as NO2 can have negative effects on skin health. In fact, scientific studies suggest that Exposure to this gas can accelerate premature aging and worsen conditions such as eczema and dermatitis.
The De-Nox devices, By reducing NO2 levels, they help protect the skin from stressful environmental factorsfavoring your health, especially in urban environments.
In addition, dry air, especially in The coldest months can cause itching and peeling in the skin. The purifier Dyson Humidify+Cool De-Nox addresses both the problems of pollution and those of dry air through its advanced capabilities of humidification and purification.
Dyson assures that the use of a purifying humidifier during A three -hour period favors greater skin hydrationcompared to air exposure in a dry environment. The company’s analysis discovered that both the water content and the thickness of the stratum corneum tended to increase during the use of the humidifier, indicating a better hydration of the upper layer of the epidermis.
De-Nox devices are compatible with the Mydyson application, through which Users can supervise and control them in real time, optimizing the domestic environment.
The range of these devices includes several versions, but all of them They incorporate an advanced purification that captures 99.95% partYoCulas, TechnologYoA Air Multiplierfor distribute the purified air evenly, Compatibility with the Mydyson app and an active carbon filter. They are available from € 499.
