The 3 Main Reasons Why An Air Purifier Is Essential For The Holidays

It’s no secret that while the holidays are a magical time of the year they can also be stressful as hell. Thanksgiving to New Year’s is basically a balancing act between spending quality time with the family and hiding in the guest bathroom for some peace and quiet. 

Hidden stressors just waiting to jump out at you right when everything seems to be going well, are exactly the sort of things air purifiers are tasked with neutralizing.

If you don’t already have one in your home, here are the 3 main ways adding one this holiday season may just save you some of that stress. 


#1 It’s Cold Out Here

This one may seem obvious but the number of problems we attempt to solve by simply opening doors and windows seemingly doubles during the holidays. The first that comes to mind are kitchen catastrophes which can mean everything from forgetting to set the oven timer to a young niece confusing curry for cinnamon. Now when it comes to airing out the house the kitchen gets a bad rap but the fireplace is often equally guilty. Remember folks, always check to make sure the chimney damper is open.

#2 Here Come The In-Laws

Having family in town means getting to spend quality time with those we love. It also means 2-3 times as many people staying in your house than usual. COVID aside, cold and flu season is already in full swing, and viruses and bacteria multiply with every additional house guest. The last thing you need is to feel responsible for someone getting sick, especially if you plan on having elderly guests. If an elderly relative is hesitant about visiting, you can at least show you’re making an effort to eliminate airborne pathogens. 

#3 Bless You

The holidays are full of smells, most of which are pleasant, but for some, the scents are just a reminder of the allergies they’re about to experience. Leaves, bonfire smoke, mold, pollen on the Christmas tree, and dusty old decorations can spark a sneezing fit for many. Couple that with your nephew who might or might not be allergic to your new dog (they’re “not sure” but your sister says they’ll get him tested when they get back) and you’ll wish you had an air purifier to filter all those allergens out of the air.


So no matter how you plan on spending the holidays an air purifier might just save you a whole lot of stress. Not sure which one to buy? Naturally, we recommend our Peak unit. Equipped with both an antimicrobial filter and an odor filter, it finishes the job with a 99.99% U.S certified HEPA filter. The best part is it comes with a 5-year warranty so if it doesn’t make it to see Christmas 2026, you’ll be getting a present from us.
