Air Purifier Benefits

Air purifiers provide a number of benefits. The air we breathe may be filled with millions of microscopic particles. While healthy lungs naturally remove solid material that is inhaled, the process is not perfect, and some particles cannot be naturally removed. An air purifier can reduce the number of impurities in the air, reducing the stress on our systems. Air purifier benefits also include removing potential allergens from the air.

Why purify

There may be hundreds of thousands of bacteria in every liter of air, each one capable of causing an infection. Similarly, the number of viruses that we inhale or are exposed to can overwhelm our immune systems. When our immune systems aren’t able to take care of all the dangers and hazards we breathe in, we can get sick.

Other times, our immune systems overreact to things that really aren’t dangerous. Allergic reactions to pet dander or pollen are when our immune systems go into overdrive.

A HEPA air purifier will remove the vast majority of these contaminants. An air purifiers with carbon a filter will also remove non-solid pollutants, such as volatile organic compounds, or VOCs. VOCs like benzene have been found to be carcinogenic, and it is not a good idea to inhale them.

Where to purify

An air purifier may be used in any enclosed environment. An air purifier may be integrated into an HVAC system. This is often how an air purifier for an office is implemented.

When choosing the size of an air purifier, look for high quality air purifier information from the manufacturer and independent reviewers. It is important to choose the right size air purifier for your home. An air purifier for a small room may be perfect for a bedroom or home office.

FAQs

An air purifier should be running whenever the space it treats is occupied. If an air purifier for a home is likely to be left off due to people forgetting to turn it on, then it should be left on all the time to make sure everyone receives air purifier benefits.

Not all air purifiers use filters to purify the air. Some use electrostatic charges to give airborne contaminants a charge, which causes them to be attracted to a material with the opposite charge. This might be a specially provided metal plate in the air purifier, which will require routine cleaning. It might also simply be the surrounding environment, causing the particles to precipitate onto the floor or objects nearby.

There are many situations outside of residential or office settings where an air purifier is required. For example, in research and medical testing, keeping the air clear of bacteria and viruses is critical to getting accurate results. There are precise manufacturing processes that require the air to meet certain standards for the product to be made. For example, when manufacturing high performance lenses, any speck of dirt or dust could end up scratching a lens during polishing. An air purifier can keep the air within an acceptable window of production.

A dehumidifier does not directly improve air quality, although there is evidence that there are indirect benefits from dehumidifiers. A dehumidifier reduces humidity in the air by causing moisture to condense on a chilled surface. Many species of mold or other pathogens flourish in high humidity environments, so reducing the humidity in the air can limit the amount of mold in the air, improving air quality.

If you want to reduce the humidity in your home or space, a dehumidifier is what you want. Dehumidifiers use a chilled surface to cause moisture to condense out of the air, like the sides of a cold drink on a humid day. This may help reduce the amount of mold in the air by limiting mold growth and reducing the number of spores that are released. Air purifiers, on the other hand, categorically reduce the number of airborne contaminants, including mold.
