Ngemuva kokuqeda lezi zinganekwane ezijwayelekile zokuhlanza umoya, uzoqonda kangcono ukuthi zisusa kanjani izinhlayiya emoyeni.
Siqonda inganekwane yezihlanzi zomoya futhi sembula isayensi engemuva kokuphumelela kwangempela kwalawa madivayisi. Izihlanzi zomoya zithi zihlanza umoya ezindlini zethu futhi sekuyisikhathi eside zamukelwa abathengi abanethemba lokunciphisa ukuchayeka ezintweni ezingcolisa umoya ezivamile (njengothuli nempova) endlini.
Ezinyangeni ezisanda kwedlula, ukubaluleka kokugcina izinga lomoya omuhle wasendlini sekuphenduke izihloko zezindaba zomhlaba wonke, njengoba abantu befuna ukwehlisa ubungozi bokuthi ama-aerosol e-COVID-19 angena ezindlini zabo. Ukuthandwa kwamanje kwezihlanzi zomoya ezihamba phambili akusona nje ubhubhane, imililo yequbula emazwenikazi amaningana, kanye nokwanda kokungcoliswa kwezimoto emadolobheni amakhulu emhlabeni wonke kuye kwabangela abantu abaningi ukuthi bathole izindlela zokunciphisa ukuchayeka ezinhlayiyeni zentuthu, ikhabhoni nokunye ukungcola.
Ngemva kokuqeda lezi zinganekwane ezivamile zokuhlanza umoya, uzoqonda kangcono ukuthi lezi zixhobo zasendlini zingakuzuzisa kanjani wena nomndeni wakho. Uma udinga ulwazi olwengeziwe, sicela uhlole inhlolovo yethu yokuthi izinto zokuhlanza umoya zisebenza kanjani.
Ngaphambi kokuthi siqonde izinganekwane ezizungezile izihlanzi zomoya, kubalulekile ukuqonda izinhlobo ezahlukene zemisebenzi etholakala kuzihlanzi zomoya:
1. Isihlungi se-HEPA: Uma siqhathaniswa nesihlanzi somoya esingenaso isihlungi se-HEPA, isihlanzi somoya esinesihlungi se-HEPA singasusa izinhlayiya ezengeziwe emoyeni. Nokho, sicela unake imigomo efana nohlobo lwe-HEPA noma uhlobo lwe-HEPA, njengoba asikho isiqiniseko sokuthi lokhu kuzohambisana nemithetho yemboni.
2. Isihlungi sekhabhoni: Izihlanzi zomoya ezinezihlungi zekhabhoni zizophinde zithwebule amagesi nezinhlanganisela ze-organic (VOC) ezikhishwe emikhiqizweni evamile yokuhlanza yasendlini nopende.
3. Inzwa: Isihlanzi somoya esinenzwa yekhwalithi yomoya sizosebenza uma sithola ukungcola emoyeni futhi ngokuvamile sizonikeza ulwazi mayelana nekhwalithi yomoya yegumbi esikulo. Ngaphezu kwalokho, isihlanzi somoya esihlakaniphile (esixhunywe ku-inthanethi) sizothumela imibiko enemininingwane ngqo ku-smartphone yakho, ukuze ukwazi ukuqapha kalula izinga lomoya wasendlini.
Umgomo wokusebenza kwesihlanzi somoya ukuhlunga izinhlayiya ezithile ezingcolisayo emoyeni, okusho ukuthi iziguli ezinesifuba somoya kanye nezinto ezingezwani nazo zingazuza ekusebenziseni kwazo. Ngokusho kweBritish Lung Foundation, uma uqinisekise ukungezwani kwezilwane ezifuywayo, ungasebenzisa isihlanzi somoya ukuze unciphise izinto ezingezwani nezilwane emoyeni-kulokhu, kutuswa ukusebenzisa isihlungi somoya se-particulate (HEPA filter) esisebenza kahle kakhulu.
