How Does an Air Purifier Work?

With the amount of money people spend on air purifiers  every year ($200+ million dollars), it's amazing how little many people know about these devices. An air purifier works by cleansing and purifying the air within a space in order to make it cleaner and 'pure' to the human lungs.

One of the ways in which purifiers help a household is by removing the moisture contained within the air which can lead to mold build up.

There are a series of filters and screens contained within the air purifiers that act as a 'gate' that filters out small particles within the air. These devices are perfect for a household that contains cigarette smoke, animal hair, dander or allergy specific particles.

The Gold Standard within the air purifier market is a 99.97% block rate on particles larger than 0.3 microns. This standard was achieved by the High Efficiency Particulate Air Filters and has been used as a benchmark ever since.

What are the Benefits?

The benefits of using an air purifier is that it leads to better respiratory efficiency and quality of air. Millions of people around the globe suffer from asthma and asthma related symptoms on a regular basis. Air purifiers work to eliminate particles that irritate and upset the respiratory tract and ensure that asthma flare-ups are kept to a minimum.

As stated before, air purifiers do an excellent job at eliminating mold producing moisture within the area. Farmers Insurance reported a huge increase in mold related claims which were, unfortunately, not covered under their policies. If that weren't worrisome enough, The Mayo Clinic concluded that 93% of sinus infections can be linked and traced back to large amounts of mold within a household. Simply put, if you have a quality air purifier in your home you can cut this risk dramatically while saving yourself medical expenses.
