Importance of Effective Air Filters The ideal approach is to use a combination of air-purifying plants and effective air filters to maximize indoor air quality. The plants can enhance the filters' performance by capturing additional pollutants. Balancing Plants and Air Filters Houseplants can capture particles that air filters may miss, such as those that enter the home from outside. They provide an additional layer of protection to supplement the primary air filtration system. Complementary Role of Plants Houseplants alone cannot completely clean indoor air of all pollutants and VOCs. Their purification capacity is limited compared to dedicated air filtration systems.
