Did you know that polluted air can actually impact the frequency of tornadoes in your area? Don't call for Auntie Em, call for Healthy Air. The lingering effects of a tornado can cause polluted air, excess dust, and damaging moisture, which may lead to a whirlwind of health issues.

"After analyzing summertime storm data from more than 10 years across the US, [atmospheric scientist Daniel] Rosenfeld found that tornado and storm activity tends to peak midweek, when pollution is at its worst." – Cosmos Magazine

Having a tornado preparedness plan in place, along with listening to any instructions from local authorities, can help keep you and your family safe during a tornado. Once the storm subsides, use your AprilAire ventilation system, along with an AprilAire whole-home air purifier and MERV 16 air filter, to reduce indoor air pollution. Check for water damage and use an AprilAire dehumidifier to bring your indoor humidity between 40-60% in order to stifle potential mold growth. Find a Healthy Air Professional in the Midwest today.
