Protect Your Air Quality With American Water
In Texas, humidity doesn’t just show up in the weather forecast — it finds its way into closets, crawl spaces and every corner of your home. When that humidity lingers, it creates the perfect breeding ground for one of the most persistent indoor problems: mold.
Even homes that appear clean and dry can still struggle with airborne mold spores that affect air quality and health. That leaves homeowners looking for a defense with a common question: Does an air purifier help with mold?
The answer depends on the technology behind it. At American Water, we offer the Aerus Beyond Guardian Air, a high-performance purifier designed not just to trap mold, but to reduce it actively. Here’s how it works — and why it matters.
Mold: A Common Threat To Texas Homes
Texas humidity rarely takes a break, meaning moisture collects in hidden areas of your home, like behind baseboards, inside HVAC systems or under bathroom cabinets. Even in newer homes, poor ventilation can keep indoor air stagnant, allowing mold spores to thrive.
What many people don’t realize is that mold doesn’t need to be visible to be a problem. In fact, the airborne spores are often more harmful than what grows on the wall. They move with your airflow, settle on surfaces and can trigger symptoms like allergies, coughing or chronic respiratory issues.
Does An Air Purifier Help With Mold?
Short answer: yes, but not all air purifiers are created equal.
Most store-bought systems use filters that trap dust and dander. Some might even claim to trap mold spores. The problem is, trapping isn’t the same as eliminating, and spores can still circulate or regrow once they settle on surfaces.
To truly address mold, you need a system that goes beyond filtration — something that actively seeks out and reduces mold spores both in the air and on the surfaces in your home. That’s where advanced technology makes all the difference.
Can An Air Purifier Remove Mold Spores From The Air?
It depends on the purifier. Basic models with HEPA filters can remove some spores from the air, but they rely on those particles passing directly through the unit. That leaves a lot behind.
The Aerus Beyond Guardian Air system from American Water uses ActivePure® Technology, which changes the game. Instead of waiting for particles to pass through, it sends out active molecules that neutralize mold spores where they live — on doorknobs, carpets, air vents, countertops and more.
So when people ask, can an air purifier remove mold spores, the answer is yes, but only if it’s designed to do more than just filter.
