Wildfire Zones Driving Record Commercial Demand for Air Filtration
New Data from Pure n Natural Systems Shows Structural Market Shift
In the last two years, we’ve redesigned more filtration systems than in the previous decade.”
LOS ANGELES, CA, UNITED STATES, January 26, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- As wildfire seasons intensify and extend, new analysis from Pure n Natural Systems shows a sharp increase in commercial air filtration investment across wildfire-affected regions. The findings are based on NOAA’s 2024–2025 wildfire and air quality data and proprietary purchasing trends among hospitality, industrial, and public-sector buyers.— Mary Collins, HVAC Contractor and IAQ Remediation Consultant
Wildfire Smoke Is Now a Permanent Operational Variable
NOAA reports that wildfire-driven PM2.5 exposure has increased by more than 20% over the past five years, with 2024 and 2025 ranking among the highest on record for sustained AQI events in the Western United States. What was once considered episodic smoke exposure is now shaping year-round operational planning for businesses and public facilities.

Pure n Natural Systems’ internal purchasing data (Jan–Oct 2025) shows:
- Orders from wildfire-affected ZIP codes increased 44% YoY
- High-CFM commercial units grew 52% YoY
- Portable emergency filtration units increased 61% during AQI 150+ events
- California, Oregon, and Colorado accounted for 72% of wildfire-driven orders
- Repeat buyers in affected zones increased 23%, signaling long-term infrastructure investment rather than one-time mitigation
