Multiple Chemical Sensitivity (MCS) and The HealthMate Plus Air Purifier
Estimates suggest that 2%-10% of people suffer from Multiple Chemical Sensitivity ( MCS). The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency has reported that up to one-third of people in the workplace claim to be sensitive to chemicals in the air. Our indoor air quality appears to be worsening with the introduction of untested chemicals being introduced into our homes at an alarming rate. This is an invasion that appears to affect women more than men and younger adults more than the general population.
MCS can be very serious. Airborne chemical exposures can create health problems for many and should be removed with an air purifier. The Austin Air HealthMate Plus is specifically designed to bring relief.
What Is Multiple Chemical Sensitivity?
Multiple Chemical Sensitivity refers to unusually severe sensitivity or allergy-like reaction to many different kinds of harmful environmental agents including perfumes, diesel, solvents, VOC’s (Volatile Organic Compounds), smoke and other chemical based pollutants. This chemical exposure can result in the human body exhibiting multiple symptoms in multiple immune, skin, organ or neurological body systems.
Sources of Multiple Chemical Sensitivity
The MCS sources are all around us. There is toxic exposure from pesticides, perfumes, scented products and carpet. They can be from building materials, gas stoves, vehicle exhaust, household cleaning supplies, paints and printing inks. Also, gases can be emitted by furniture and cabinets constructed with press board that emit formaldehyde. And finally, MCSs can come for business machines and even second-hand tobacco smoke.
Symptoms of Multiple Chemical Sensitivity
The list of Multiple Chemical Sensitivity symptoms is practically endless. Most often experienced by sufferers are: burning and stinging eyes, difficulty in breathing , extreme fatigue, headaches and migraines, impaired balance and dizziness, memory loss, lack of concentration, runny nose, sore throat, coughing, sinus problems, sleeping disorders, body pain, skin irritation, rashes and light sensitivity.
Restore Health
The best way to stay healthy when you have MCS is to keep away from the chemicals which may trigger reactions. Simply by avoiding exposure, sufferers will begin to experience dramatic health improvements.
The best action to take is to invest in an air cleaning system. Select an air purifier that has been designed to remove 99.97 % of airborne contaminants. Your system needs to be able to remove airborne gaseous molecules and particulate solids. A combination of a medical grade High Efficiency Particulate Arresting (HEPA) filter and activated carbon blends are highly effective at filtering Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs), other chemical gases, organic and inorganic particulate solids. Additionally, this combination will remove smells and odors commonly associated with chemical sources.
These features and more come with the Austin Air HealthMate Plus. It is designed with a multilayered filtering system capable of removing the largest to smallest particulate matter both in gas and solid form.
Summary
MCS affects many of us and the sources that trigger our symptoms keeps on growing. You can protect yourself by removing the triggers in the air. Buy an air purifier, such as the Austin Air HealthMate Plus, that is specifically designed to cleanse the air of the Multiple Chemical Sensitivity airborne contaminates.
The Medical Grade HEPA used in the Healthmate Plus effectively removes up to 99% of bacteria and aerosolized viruses larger than 0.1 microns. It also eliminates a wide range of gases, chemicals, VOC’s and formaldehyde. This broad-spectrum adsorption makes it the best choice for people suffering from MCS, exposed to smoke from wildfires and offers dentists and their patients’ protection against airborne contaminants.
Yes. Our permanent filters are available in standard and custom sizes. We offer 12 different filter types to fit most needs.

Some early permanent filters were very restrictive and gave the product a bad reputation in some cases. Some HVAC contractors still tell their customers that all permanent filters are bad.
However, not all permanent filters are created equal. Like any type of filter, there is a balance between dust arrestance and air resistance. Our filters have very low air resistance.
Even our most restrictive filters are no more so than a good pleated disposable filter.
With proper maintenance, you can expect your permanent filter to last at least as long as your HVAC unit. Some of our customers have been using their filters for over 15 years and counting.
No. All of our filters are electrostatic. They have special polypropylene media layers that build a natural static charge as air passes through the filter. The charge is broken and the dust is released when the filter is cleaned.
Everything we do is built around trust and service.

I have been using my filter now for two weeks, and have noticed a difference in the air quality and coolness! My AC has been running more efficiently and the filter looks so much better than any previous filter I have purchased! The shipping is slow(made to order?) so unknowingly I ordered 2, and when I reached out they credited me for the second purchase, even though it was shipped. Highly recommend!
My order delivery address is clearly indicated, the front fmdoor is covered. FedEx delivered it to an apartment door (lower floor) with different street address that is uncovered. The package was buried in snow for two weeks. Never use FedEx!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Filter is built sturdy and fit perfectly in my geothermal unit. Customer service was very prompt to answer questions about delivery of the filter during the Covid pandemic as well.
This is one of the best air conditioning filters that I have purchased.
My assessment is based on it's cost, permanent construction, easy cleaning, and it's filtration properties. Considering that you should change your air conditioning filters every two months, you can easiley see the return on investment. I Highly recommend it.
So far so good
