Cleaning can be troublesome for allergy and asthma sufferers, disturbing settled dust and throwing symptom-triggering allergens into the air. Whether you suffer with hayfever, pollen or dust allergies, or are sensitive to pet dander, discover the best Shark products to help you breathe easy at home.
Some HEPA vacuums don’t effectively seal their filter in, so dust, allergens and irritants can be blown out into your home. That’s why Shark invented Anti-Allergen Complete Seal, containing our high efficiency filters within a completely sealed vacuum cleaner unit. The only route out for the air is through the filter, capturing and trapping 99.9% of dust and allergens inside the vacuum*. Available on selected vacuum cleaners.
Efficiently remove allergens, mould, smoke, pollen and more from your home’s air. Shark air purifiers feature Multi-Stage Filtration which traps dirt, dander and particles, captures 99.97% of pollutants and allergens at 0.3 microns, and neutralises odours with a charcoal layer.
