When it comes to cleaning my home, I take great pride in making sure that everything is clean. But often times dust and allergens are not visible so that just makes cleaning so much harder. Just a few years ago we found out that my daughter Kayla has Asthma. After my husband and I found out we have to be very careful about what she is exposed to as she has frequent attacks. So, once she goes to school I will dust and make sure that the air is free and clear to make it easier for her to breathe. But considering that dusting alone seems not to help, I was in extreme need for something that could be more beneficial than just a regular duster and some spray.
A few weeks ago, I was contacted by Oreck and they had asked me to review a Oreck ProShield Plus Air Purifier with Helios Shield. I thought this would be a great addition to my home so I accepted. When the box arrived at my doorstep, I was so relieved as I just knew this was exactly what my home needed. I opened the box and almost immediately plugged it in. What I like most is that it comes with a remote control so that you can conveniently control the settings at your convenience.
We have had the Oreck Air Purifier for about two weeks so far. I'm so happy to announce that Kayla has not had an attack since we have had it. Also my husband and I also suffer from allergies and have not needed to take anything. Whether you suffer from Asthma, Allergies or just want your air in your home more breathable I highly recommend the Oreck ProShield Plus Air Purifier with Helios Shield.
One thing I would like to point out, the Oreck Air Purifier does make some crackling noises I just found out recently that this just means the machine is working.
The secret to the new Oreck ProShield Plus’s powerful performance is Oreck’s exclusive “capture and kill” filtration system. As the air circulates through it, Oreck’s patented Truman Cell electronically charges dust, allergens, and germs and pulls them out of the air like a magnet. Then Oreck’s newest innovation, the revolutionary Helios Shield utilizes UV light for superior odor control capability. That type of cleaning power gives Oreck the ability to wipe out many viruses, neutralize volatile organic compounds, and eliminate odors as it circulates the air through its system.
Great for Asthma and Allergy Sufferers.
