<h1>Workshop Dust Collection: Why You Need HEPA, Too.</h1>

A lot of workshops (home and industrial) use dust collectors to trap the larger particles and fibers, and many of these systems are pretty effective at doing that. What isn’t happening in many cases, however, that’s just as important is removing the smaller more dangerous micro-particles.  

 

And it isn’t just micro ‘particles’ that are the issue. Mold spores are everywhere, and they easily grow on any organic material, such as wood and other natural materials you might bring into your workshop.  Mold spores grow and become airborne very easily, long before you see mold growth on something. Your usual workshop dust collectors, if they don’t have HEPA filters, unfortunately, are simply circulating the micro-particles, mold and bacteria when turned on simply because the air flow is there and the filter’s pore size is too large to stop them.

 

That is why industrial dust collectors and home workshop dust removal units with HEPA filters are much better and make your shop a much safer place to work.  Quality dust collectors such as those from Electrocorp, include heavy duty HEPA filters that consistently remove over 99% of all particles, dust, mold spores and bacteria as small as 0.3 microns, and in some cases as small as 0.1 microns, depending on which air cleaner you choose.

 

Or you may choose a workshop air purifier to run in addition to the basic dust extraction system you have running. That works, too, provided that the air purifier has enough output power or CFM to cycle all of the air in the shop every 5 minutes or less. Anything more than 5 minutes and you’ll be breathing the micro-pollutants before the air cleaner can get to them. If you need a couple of air cleaners or more to accomplish that, for the amount of space in the shop, then so be it. It’s a smart investment. You’ll prevent illness, allergies, and even reduce equipment maintenance because all of those micro-particles aren’t in the air to clog things up and get into places they shouldn’t be.  Not to mention, if you have employees, you’ll prevent air quality related health issues, reduce health care costs, reduce employee downtime due to illness, and even increase production.
