You’ve probably heard many times before that hard-surface flooring is best suited for reducing asthma and allergy triggers in your home. But what if you can’t rip up the carpet because you live in an apartment or because it’s too expensive to do so? There has to be another way to reduce triggers, right?
Well, there is another way, and that’s to vacuum your carpets once or twice a week. But it’s important to remember that not all vacuum cleaners are equal. Only Certified asthma & allergy friendly® vacuums—like the Samsung VU3000 Lift & Clean—are scientifically proven to be more suitable for those with asthma and allergies.
So what makes the Samsung VU3000 Lift & Clean a better option for people with asthma and allergies? This vacuum cleaner is scientifically proven to:
- Remove a significant amount of allergens from your carpet;
- Remove allergens and not just redistribute them back into your home’s air;
- Maintain its capability to pick-up allergens when the bag or receptacle is partly filled; and
- Reduce your exposure to allergens when changing the bag or cleaning the receptacle.
Easy…or maybe not. There’s still more to it. In order for a vacuum to meet the above requirements, it must meet strict standards when:
- Comparing surface allergens before and after vacuuming;
- Monitoring airborne allergens during vacuuming;
- Counting particles to determine the air filtration system’s integrity;
- Assessing performance when the vacuum bag or receptacle is full;
- Assessing dust emission when the vacuum bag or receptacle is full; and
- Assessing your exposure to allergens while changing the bag or cleaning the receptacle.
Because the Samsung VU3000 Life & Clean meets all of these requirements, it is Certified asthma & allergy friendly® by the Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America.
This vacuum is designed to be lightweight, but boasts a powerful suction that is efficient for multi-surface cleaning. The vacuum has a detachable pod for easy maintenance, a motorized brush for deep cleaning, and dusting brush and crevice tools for various cleaning needs.
