What Does An Air Purifier Do? Air purifiers remove pollutants such as cigarette smoke, dust, pollen and pet dander from the air.
How do air purifiers work? It cleans the air by removing contaminants from the air in a room using filters, electrical attraction, or ozone to remove bad particles from the air Air filters utilize fine sieves that filter particles from the circulating air. High Efficiency Particulate Air (HEPA) filters are guaranteed to trap 99.97% of airborne particles larger than 0.3 microns.
Microns are the standard unit used for measuring air particles. One micron is equal to 1/25,400 of an inch. From the naked eye anything smaller than 10 microns can not be seen, so pollutants like bacteria and viruses escape detection. Filters in AC’s are only able to capture particles 10.0 microns or larger. Air will become cleaner the more it pass through the HEPA filter

Air Purifier for your home FILTERING TECHNOLOGY There are many kinds filters that comes with any purifier unit. Understanding your needs and which filtration system is crucial in making your choice.
FILTER COST AND REPLACEMENT Filters must be replaced periodically as it accumulates air particulates and eventually restricts the flow of air going through the system. Knowing how to replace the filter and how much each replacement will cost overtime should be taken under consideration.
ADDITIONAL FEATURES Timers, Sensors, Energy Saving features, etc. are not all avaiable in all units. Study each feature carefully to know which feature would be most beneficial to your needs.
AIR DELIVERY RATE CADR or Clean Air Delivery Rate is the amount of air processed in cubic feet per minute. More air passing through the system means more cleaner air is released thoughout your room.
NOISE LEVEL Any Air Purifier has a fan or series of fans powered by an electric motor. Any moving part including the air creates sound. This sound is measured in dB(A) or decibels. See the units specifications to know which one is noisier or quiter at it’s strongest setting. Higher dB(A) means louder sound pressure or noise.
AREA COVERAGE This measures the effective radius from which your system will work EFFICIENTLY. You must know the size of the room you’ll be using the unit on. Using an under powered system on an oversized room will result in premature filter changes or over-using the unit’s fan motor.
UNIT SIZE and FORM FACTOR Placement of your brand new Air Purifier should also be taken under consideration. It should be placed near center of the room or where there is large polutant concentration for more efficient air circulation. A large size system can ruin your rooms beautiful theme. Placing it between walls or objects may restrict your units airflow capabilities. Taking notice of the air intake and output should help you decide the best place for your Air Purifier in your room.
