Carpeting provides a warm and inviting look to any home, but for those that suffer from allergies, it can be a source of misery. Carpets are known to trap dust, pollen, and other allergens, making it difficult for allergy sufferers to breathe easily. Professional carpet cleanings are the most effective solution to minimizing allergy symptoms. However, the quarterly cleanings alone are not enough. You will want to find a reliable anti-allergy vacuum cleaner for your daily cleaning to help keep your allergy symptoms at bay in between professional carpet cleanings. The process will help make your home as comfortable as possible for those that suffer from seasonal and year-round allergies.

Allergy-friendly vacuum cleaners can be basic, or they can cost several hundred dollars. The qualities and features you would look for in a vacuum cleaner for allergies are as follows:

A HEPA Filter & Anti-Allergen Seals

For anyone who suffers from allergies, the HEPA filter can be a godsend. High-efficiency particulate air filters are designed to trap small particles of dust, dander, and debris that can cause allergic reactions. Unlike vacuum cleaners that are unequipped with HEPA filters, vacuums with these filters can help to remove these pesky particles from the air and prevent them from circulating back into the environment. As a result, the HEPA filter can provide relief for allergy sufferers by improving the quality of the air in their homes.

However, filters alone aren’t enough to keep your home allergy-free. That’s where anti-allergen seals come in. These seals are designed to create a tight seal around the filter, trapping particles inside the unit. As a result, units with both HEPA filters and anti-allergen seals can be incredibly effective at reducing the number of allergic reactions in your home.

A Strong Suction

The amount of suction a vacuum has is highly important to its ability to lift allergens from a carpet. Most units with suction control have more power than units without such control. Another option is to read the description of many units and look for ones that boast about suction strength. Vacuums with high suction power are able to remove more allergens, dirt, and debris from carpets than vacuums with low suction power. 

Has Low Emissions

By selecting a vacuum with tight craftsmanship and high-tech seals, you can help to reduce the number of pollutants that are released into the air. Not only will this create a healthier environment in your home, but it will also give you peace of mind knowing that you’re doing your part to protect the planet.
