Air Purifier - Relevant to Indians homes
Due to shocking levels of increasing air pollution in major Indian cities around the country we are at a high risk of developing respiratory disorders and can be potentially harmful to our family members already suffering from various respiratory problems.
Most Air Purifiers remove airborne pollutants like mold spores, dust, pollen, bacteria, and pet dander from our home to make us breathe fresh air. The purifier should have the filters installed so that it can reduce the level of bio-allergens in a particular space.
Air Purifiers helps to remove triggers for Asthma Attacks and eliminate allergens, such as dust and pet odor. Breathing in such impure air can cause your body to produce IgE, which may ignites allergic reactions in our body.
Air Purifiers shut in tobacco and cigarette smoke and preventing us from lung diseases and also remove fumes and pollutants in urban homes. Breathing in dust, pollen, pet odor, and tobacco smoke can cause your body to produce IgE, which ignites allergic reactions.
Air Purifiers cut Carbon Dioxide levels in your home to protect children, elderly and the chronically ill from various respiratory illnesses. It produces clean air which improves mood levels on inhaling. It also helps in reducing stress.
Points to be noted while choosing the right Air Purifier
You must consider the size, weight, and color of the appliance as well as the noise control before you go it.
Air purifiers with HEPA filters are all time favorites as they remove a great majority of pollutants from the air in a quiet and efficient manner
Air purifiers that use Electronic Technology, not HEPA Filters, are not recommended as the airborne particles don’t get trapped in the purifier instead they settle on furniture which later on you have to remove manually.
One should measure the square footage of the room they are going to install and then find an Air Purifier that is able to filter the air in a room of that size. Air flow rate of an air purifier is measured in the unit of cubic feet minute or CFM.
The two most important factors are two main things about the air flow rate: the efficiency of the inside filters installed and the power of the fan built into the device and you should go in details before you go for outer style and designs.
Go for an Air Purifier that produces little noise around 35 decibels
Measure the Air purifier's ongoing support and electricity costs so you can schedule beyond your original purchase.
Skip the bonus features if not so much necessary, such as app combination, etc.
Things you should know about before you choose your perfect Air Purifer
HEPA filters ( High-Efficiency Particulate Arrestance)
In order to be classified as HEPA, an air filter must remove no less than 99.97 percent of particles 0.3 microns or larger from your air. It is the gold standard for allergen and airborne particle removal. Air purifiers use Replaceable HEPA-rated filters to remove 99.97 percent of the airborne particles in your home. Permanent HEPA-type air purifiers work just like HEPA-Type air purifiers, except they have filters that do not need to be replaced. The reusable filters require occasional cleaning to help trap 99 percent of airborne particles.
Activated carbon filters
It uses small, absorbent pores to capture pollutants as they pass through the filter.
UV Purifiers (Ultraviolet)
UV purifiers remove bacteria and viruses from the air. These ultraviolet germicidal lights kill airborne germs to help keep your family healthy. True HEPA air purifiers with UV bulbs capture and neutralize up to 99.97 percent of the airborne germs that you want to avoid.
Ionic Air purifiers
Ionic air purifiers don’t actually purify the air. Instead, they send streams of negative ions into the air that attach to airborne particles, making them too heavy to remain airborne.
