Air purifiers are fast becoming an essential household appliance, but what do they do? Simply put, they capture a wide range of airborne pollutants, ensuring the air in your home is fresh, clean and healthy. They’re ideal for using in bedrooms, living rooms and kitchens, and any room where you need optimal air quality.
Let’s explore the many benefits further.
The main benefit of using an air purifier is to protect your health. Studies have shown that poor indoor air quality can cause a range of health issues. In contrast, research suggests that good indoor air quality can actually improve your general health and wellbeing.
Air purifiers are also a must-have if anyone in your household suffers from asthma or has allergies. They can capture the tiny particles which can trigger asthma attacks and cause those unpleasant allergy symptoms.
Air purifiers capture a wide range of airborne pollutants and allergens, including:
Used in bedrooms, air purifiers can promote better quality sleep by cleaning and purifying the air, helping you breathe easier, and even reducing snoring.
Another great benefit you might not know is that air purifiers can reduce time spent on household cleaning – they can capture dust before it has a chance to settle on any surfaces.
Air purifiers work by drawing air in, then passing it through an efficient series of filters. These cutting-edge filtration systems capture any nasty pollutants, ensuring only the freshest, clean air is circulated back into your home.
Some air purifiers contain HEPA filters, which are considered the most efficient, with a collection rate of 99.99%. Always check the product information before you buy.
Yes, they do. Air purifiers minimise unwanted smells by trapping the particles which cause odours. Some models even feature a built-in aromatherapy diffuser, so you can add essential oils to create a fragrant and relaxing environment.
Air purifiers are strongly recommended for people with allergies. Pets, pollen, dust mites and pollution are major causes of irritation within the home, and a purifier can help manage all these, by trapping the tiny particles in the filters and removing them from the air.
The electriQ Smart Air Purifier is our suggested choice for those with allergies.
To keep your air purifier working efficiently, make sure you clean or change the filters as often as is recommended by your user manual. Keeping the filters in good condition will also extend the lifespan of your air purifier. Always follow the manufacturer's instructions.
The main job of an air purifier isn’t to cool a room, but to clean and improve the quality of the air circulating within. If you need to cool as well as purify, consider an air conditioner with a purifying mode.
When choosing an air purifier, always consider the size of your room. All our purifiers are labelled with a maximum room size, so you can easily find the best model for your space.
Note: Air purifiers are effective, but can’t replace proper ventilation. To maintain good indoor air quality, open your windows for at least 5-10 minutes every day, even in winter, and dust and vacuum regularly. Avoid drying clothes inside and always use an extractor fan to ventilate kitchens and bathrooms.
