A Guide To Room Air Cleaners

By Jill Faulkner


The purpose of room air cleaners is to get rid of impurities that are currently present in the atmosphere. But it depends who can benefit from them and who does not. Mostly people aim to decrease the level of contamination that can be present inside the house.

However, some people argue that they do not clean the atmosphere enough to be given an importance. These cleaners that are capable of purifying the atmosphere are expensive and they are only found in special shops. Cheaper options do not clean the atmosphere well.

Every single purifier has got metal plates that help the machine to electrostatically charge and work efficiently. In order to make the air circulation frequent, the filter or cleaner is placed in a specific location.

As the air is circulated through the electrostatic plates, the plates catch debris and dust as if the salt is attracted by a statically charged comb. It indicates that the air coming out is cleaner and purer.

As some of the particles that could cause allergy and some of the germs are heavy and have no capability to float, it means they remain on the ground and do not pass the electrostatic plates and hence, they are not purified. Similarly, there are times when allergens are taken out of the atmosphere but the purifier drops them on items present inside the room. Therefore, make sure the plates are nice and clean all the time to improve the working of the cleaner.

The purifiers that come with the motorized fans are better than the passive models. The air will be more purified in case it is drawn in the purifier mechanically. The allergens are also kept in the circulation which means that they will not fall on other places. For someone who needs to have clean atmosphere, it is important to use the purifiers that use the HEPA or High Efficiency Particulate Arrestor. They work well if they are together with this kind of filtration system.

Ozone is a very strong oxygen gas and it is an unfortunate thing that it is produced by several air purifiers. But as long as the ozone remains afloat it acts as a bodyguard against solar radiation and no harm is caused to an individual's health. If the ozone is settled into one particular place, it might cause a bit of hindrance.

Different purifiers that use electrical plates, produce the ozone as they work. This means that even if the atmosphere can be purified but they still put people at risks of suffering from ozone poisoning. The consumers who are looking for these purifiers, they have to make sure that they checked if the purifier does not have a high level of ozone production.

The room air cleaners are built in a way that they can benefit the entire house in one go. Whilst buying such type of product, juts make sure what cost you are going to bear in the long term regarding its maintenance because you will need to change these filters quite frequently.
