How A Portable Air Conditioner Can Help Your Allergies Do you or your family suffer from allergies due to particles that are found in the air, as well as by dust? If you are, then you should know a few things about air filters. Before going into that, let's start by saying that it is recommended that you replace your indoor air with outdoor air. There are a few things you can do, such as leave the windows open or doors open, but even if you do that, there are still the risk of airborne problems. However, removing them can be difficult because of how small they are. You could end up breathing in household dust, as well as cigarette smoke, and this can lead to complications. This is why filters should be used, as well as cleaners. For example, you can use portable air cleaners, and they can clean air in a small area, but they cannot do the entire home. It's worth mentioning that around 99% of particles are captured, but gas molecules can still pass through the filters. Gas molecules are from cigarette smoke, as well as radon. In order to take care of these types of molecules, some companies have decided to use an activated carbon filter. Pleated filters can capture some of these particles, and they are composed of materials that are pretty similar to HEPA.


Around 40-96 percent of household dust could end up being removed. Also, electronic cleaners are used to capture particles via a foam pre-filter. This leads to larger particles being removed. Once this happens, the particles are charged via highvoltage wire, and the precipitating cell attracts them. Once all of this happens, the carbon filter will get rid of odors, as well as other types of particles. Asides from the carbon and pre-foam filter, an electric cleaner uses other things to capture particles, and this includes cellulose fibers and polyester. Asides from this, another type of air cleaner is ozone generation. This one also uses high-voltage electrical charges, and it works to convert oxygen to ozone. This results in mold and other gas molecules and substances to be demolished by the ozone. Another type of cleaner that uses a foam pre-filter is a negative ionizer. However, it also uses a carbon filter, but there is a difference. The different are the wires, as the wires create ions. The charged particles are then blown into the room via the fan, but they are also sucked in again. As you can see, there are quite a few different types of air filters, and there are quite a few things that you should know about them. Now that you have a little more understanding


about the different kinds of filters, as well as cleaners, and you are now familiar with some of their features, you should have a good idea of which ones meets your needs the best. With this information, you should find it easy to figure out which filter you should get, so pick one up as soon as possible.
