My mom and dad had an air purifier installed about a year ago.
Shortly after the covid-19 pandemic began, my mom started to worry constantly about the indoor air quality. I told my mom that she didn’t have anything to worry about, because she wasn’t having visitors or going to a lot of different places. I didn’t think she would really come in contact with the virus as long as she was staying home, but she insisted that the air purifier was absolutely necessary. She called an HVAC company that specializes in air filtration upgrades and made an appointment. I was happy that the HVAC company didn’t try to talk my mom and dad into an expensive air filtration system. Instead, they recommended that my mom and dad buy a simple air purifier. The air purifier was installed into a window in the living room. It resembles an air conditioner like you might see in a mobile home or an apartment. The air purifier worked very well for a long time, but it was making a very funny and strange sound last weekend when I went to visit my mom and dad. I told my mom that the air purifier might need to be serviced and she scoffed. She felt very strongly that the air purifier was working just fine and she didn’t believe the noise was any concern at all. I hope the machine doesn’t break down in the middle of the week. My dad is going on a business trip and he won’t be home to help out in an emergency.
