All About Good Quality Room Air Cleaners

By Jill Faulkner


Wherever they are placed, room air cleaners help to effectively run the process of purifying atmosphere. But not everyone is able to take advantage of them in an effective manner. There are lots of germs and allergens present inside the house and the purifier helps in order to reduce them.

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.

Whether different purifiers work alike or differently, one this is for sure and that is they function around similar method of purification using metal plates to build up electrostatic charge. To make the air circulations perfect the unit is usually placed at a hidden corner in the room.

If the air passes on the charged plates: spores, dust and other debris are captured on the electronic charge. This is done in the same way as the statically charged comb attracts salts. This means that the air that comes out of the purifier will be cleaner.

Because some of the particles that cause allergies are quite heavy and unable to float in atmosphere, therefore they remain on the ground and cannot be purified. In other cases, the particles do pass through the plates but they are thrown away on other items present inside the room. This is the reason why you should always make sure that the electric plates are always clean and neat.

Those purifiers that have built in motor fan work quite well as compared to other products. As the air is drawn with the help of a motor it means it will be more purifier than before. Because the circulation is frequent, the allergens remain unable to drop down on other materials inside the room. The HEPA filter purifier work perfectly as they are designed to provide high efficiency.

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.

Ozone is produced only in those filters that use the electric plates. This suggests that although the atmosphere is being purified but it comes at a high risk to human health which is not positive at all. So, before going out to buy such product, one should be sure whether it will produce the ozone to a harmful level or not.

These kinds of purifiers can be designed to work in one room or in the entire home. While considering the cost of the room air cleaners, you have also to consider the maintenance cost since some of these purifiers require you to change their filters on regular basis.
