Understanding How An Air Purifier Works

By Tamika Powell


The increasing levels of pollutants in the environment are one of the reasons there are increased incidences of airborne illnesses. This has seen an increase in government and private sector initiatives in many nations to reduce or eliminate air pollution levels. On a personal level, you have a number of options that include installing an air purifier in your home or office to clean the air you breathe in.

Scientists have stated that there is a strong connection between the existence of some pollutants in the environment and the incidence of specific allergic reactions in people. People who suffer from asthma are more susceptible to respiratory conditions, especially when they are exposed to such pollutants. There is no cure for this condition at present but you can follow some steps to lessen its negative impact by taking in pure air.

The majority of devices that purify air are installed inside the house and can only clean the air inside. All these devices contain filters that trap impure particles. The MERV and HEPA devices are some examples of such equipment. These purifying appliances can capture tiny particles present in the air.

Filters can be effective, but there are other ways to clean the environment. One option is to use germicidal irradiation, in which special lamps destroy contaminating particles. Another option is to go for an ionizer that makes use of an electrostatic process to purify the air.

If you are allergic to certain air elements or have someone in the family with a similar problem you can consider using purifying appliances. It is more convenient in the sense that some of the contaminants are naturally occurring and hence cannot be eliminated from the atmosphere completely. Dust, pollen, mold spores and the like are found naturally in varying amounts depending on your surroundings.

In such cases, using a purifying device is the only possible solution you have to get rid of air pollutants. As most of these devices run on electricity, it is a good idea to ask a professional about the most suitable way to install the appliance. You should think about the place where you are going to put the purifier so as to make it more efficient.

You might also want to save on the cost of power, especially as far as the operation of such an appliance is concerned. Currently, most of these devices have an energy star rating indicating that they have been manufactured with an energy efficiency feature. When you buy such an appliance you will definitely see reduced power bills compared to less efficient appliances.

An air purifier device has to be friendly with the environment. A green purifier is the kind of device you need to go for if you want to ensure you don't contribute to the destruction of the ozone layer. To be environmentally friendly, you should only go for appliances that do not pose a threat to the environment. Following and adhering to these important tips will go a long way in assisting any individual when making a decision on this essential device.
