Air conditioners can benefit allergy sufferers, asthmatics, and people with sensitive respiratory systems by filtering pollen, mold spores, and other allergens from indoor air. The ECARF Allergy Seal certifies portable air conditioning units that demonstrate a measurable improvement in air quality. In order to filter allergens reliably, it is essential to create a certain room climate, provide continuous air conditioning and perform maintenance regularly.
Despite thorough testing, allergic reactions cannot be entirely ruled out.
Since the first seal was awarded in 2006, thousands of certificates have been granted.
The Allergy Seal of Quality is a service of the ECARF Foundation.
