It makes sense that if we could clean the allergens and irritants from the air we breathe indoors, our asthma would be better managed—especially given that Americans spend 90% of their time indoors. The problem is that the medical studies just don't back this up. Indoor air filters alone do not seem to have much of an impact on improving asthma control.
