California Wildfires: Smoke Affects More than Flames

by Dan Buglio

Over the past few weeks, Southern California has experienced one of the largest evacuations it the state's history. Nearly 500,000 people have fled the area due to the uncontrollable wildfires that have been fanned into a frenzy by Santa Ana winds. Though wildfires are a natural means of renewing the landscape and ecology, real estate that borders on more rural areas simply becomes more fuel for the fire

Though the most immediate danger related to wild fires is the flame itself, but the smoke that the blaze produces.

The winds that cause the California fires to blaze out of control have eased over the past couple of days, but for individuals in that area of the country (and especially those with respiratory concerns) the trouble may be just beginning.

For most healthy people, smoke is not a major concern other than the headaches that can accompany the strong lingering scent. It is always a good idea to avoid breathing in smoke--so if you notice that the air outdoors is smoky due to nearby fires, it may be prudent to avoid outdoor activities.

Who is affected the most by smoke?</b.

People with heart or lung diseases, such as congestive heart disease, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, emphysema or asthma.
Children
Elderly Persons
No matter how healthy you are, smoke can be detrimental to your health. Carbon monoxide and ozone produced by the fires can be deadly.

Things to keep in mind:

When the EPA's Air Quality Index indicates that the air outdoors is unhealthy, it is a good idea to keep your house as smoke-free as possible:

Close all windows and keep doors shut whenever possible.
Shut the fresh air vents on air conditioning and heaters to avoid drawing in smoke-filled air from outdoors.
Replace ordinary furnace or air conditioning filters with HEPA filters to ensure that even the finest particles are being removed from your indoor air. Consider Dynamic Air Quality Solutions 1'' Panel Filter or the equally effective CT500 for those without a forced air central heating or cooling system. The Dynamic Air Cleaner CT500 is an in room air cleaner which is very effective at handling smoke.
Run a HEPA filter air purifier with capabilities of removing fumes and odors as well as particles. An excellent purifier for handling all of the dangers associated with smoke is the IQAir Health Pro Plus.

If you have asthma, make sure that you take your prescribed medications as often as advised. If you are monitoring your lungs using a peak flow meter, be sure to do so regularly and record the results on paper. If you notice any changes, call your doctor.

Remember:

Smoke particles are extraordinarily small in size, so they can only be removed from the air by true HEPA quality filters. The EPA strongly cautions against using an ozone producing air purifier when keeping your air clean while nearby wildfires are raging. The ozone can accumulate when you home is closed up until it reaches unhealthy levels.

Do not rely on face masks to protect you from smoke. There are almost no masks that can keep smoke out of your lungs--and even those that do work on the particles can not protect you from the carbon monoxide.
