Breathe Easy at Home: Reducing Asthma Complaints with ASPRA S-INduct
Reducing Particulate Matter to Alleviate Asthma Symptoms at Home
A young girl suffering from asthma experienced worsened symptoms due to high levels of particulate matter from nearby highways. Even indoors, traffic emissions infiltrated the home, affecting her comfort and health. Attempts to reduce these pollutants using an F5 filter in the home's HVAC system proved insufficient.
To provide a lasting solution, VFA Solutions (developer of ASPRA) installed an ASPRA S INduct directly into the home’s ventilation system. This intervention purified incoming air, significantly reducing particulate matter levels by 95–99% and creating a healthier indoor environment for the entire family.
About the Project
A family living near high-traffic roads faced an ongoing issue with airborne pollutants, which aggravated their daughter’s asthma symptoms both indoors and outdoors. Despite implementing an F5 filter in their existing HVAC system, the reduction in particulate matter was not sufficient to improve her health.
To solve this, VFA Solutions installed an ASPRA S INduct air purifier directly behind the home’s WTW ventilation system. This placement ensured that all incoming air was thoroughly filtered before distribution, effectively capturing harmful fine and ultrafine particles. The result was fresher, cleaner indoor air, significantly reducing asthma complaints and improving the family’s overall well-being.

Detailed Approach
Problem Description
A family living near highways struggled with elevated levels of particulate matter caused by traffic emissions. These airborne pollutants severely worsened their daughter’s asthma symptoms, making it difficult for her to breathe comfortably even indoors.
To address the issue, they installed an F5 filter in their HVAC system, but this solution failed to sufficiently reduce the concentration of fine and ultrafine particles, leaving the family searching for a more effective and long-term solution.
The Solution
To ensure clean indoor air, VFA Solutions installed an ASPRA S INduct air purifier directly into the home’s air supply duct behind the WTW ventilation system in the attic. This strategic placement allowed the filtration of all incoming air before distribution throughout the home.
The ASPRA S INduct effectively captured fine and ultrafine particulate matter, preventing harmful pollutants from circulating indoors. Additionally, its portable design allows the family to take the purifier with them if they move, ensuring continued access to clean and healthy air in their new home.
The Result
The installation of the ASPRA S INduct provided immediate relief. The young girl’s asthma symptoms decreased, and all family members noticed a significant improvement in indoor air quality. Scientific measurements confirmed a 95–99% reduction in particulate matter levels, reinforcing the effectiveness of the ASPRA filtration system.
The home now offers a cleaner, healthier living environment, demonstrating how advanced air purification solutions can significantly enhance comfort and well-being, especially for individuals with respiratory conditions.
