What is this product?
Wildfire smoke contains PM2.5, CO, formaldehyde, acrolein, benzene, PAHs, and hundreds of volatile organic compounds from combustion of vegetation, structures, and synthetic materials. AQI >150 (Unhealthy): vulnerable groups should stay indoors. AQI >200: everyone should limit outdoor exposure. N95/KN95 respirators reduce PM2.5 inhalation by 95% when properly fitted. Indoor air during smoke events: close windows, run HVAC on recirculate, portable HEPA filter. Smoke events increasingly severe and prolonged due to climate change — 2020 US West Coast: AQI >500 for days.
