Air purifiers remove airborne particulate from the air. Air is drawn through the filter and particles are trapped in the filter system. The filtered air is then re-circulated back through your home.

Air purifiers take out a lot of the pollutants from our air which can irritate allergies and asthma. These pollutants include airborne particulate as small as 0.3 microns and includes pollen, dust, pet dander, mold spores and smoke.

The manufacturer's warranty varies from manufacturer to manufacturer. They range from one to ten years. Each manufacturer's warranty is clearly marked on each individual product page.

Microban is used in air purifiers because it is an Antimicrobial agent used to treat an air purifiers HEPA filter. The protection provided by the Microban product prevents development of mold, bacteria or mildew growth on the filters surface which can cause bad odors. The life expectancy of your filter is not affected by the Microban.

Only certain ionizer air purifiers have ionizers built in. Unless the air purifier specifically states that it is has an ionizer it is more likely to use a mechanical filter instead.

Biozone? air purifiers make about the same amount of noise as the average computer fan, much less than a micro-wave or air conditioner, and slightly more than a toaster. Our air purifiers use a very quiet 3 speed fan, similar to a computer fan, this pulls enough air through the air purification chamber at a rate that creates optimum levels of purifying plasma. If sound level is an issue, select a slightly more powerful air purifier and run it at a lower speed.

The inlet grill draws in dirty air. In most HEPA air purifiers, a washable pre-filter traps larger particles. By definition, a HEPA filter removes at least 99.97% of all particles as small as 0.3 microns. HEPA air purifiers were originally developed by the Atomic Energy Commission to capture radioactive dust particles. Allergens such as pollen, animal dander, mold spores, and dust get trapped in the filter.

Some air purifiers, such as the Blueair units, are extremely quiet, while others can be quite loud when operating at high power. If possible, ask for a demonstration before you buy your air purifier. Also, please see our Air Purifier Noise Graph.

We offer a wide variety of air purifiers designed to treat a number of indoor air quality problems. There are many factors to consider when shopping for an air purifier, but the main factor to consider is the type of pollution which you're trying to eliminate. See our Air Purifier Buying Guide for more information about what you should consider before buying and air purifier, and see our Air Purifier Comparison Chart for an in-depth look at the differences in our air purifiers.

Biozone? air purifiers can remove contaminates down to .01 microns, much smaller than even the best medical grade hepa filter! Biozone? air purifiers are capable of removing hazardous chemical fumes, viruses, bacteria, germs, allergens, pet dander, cigarette smoke and fumes and almost anything you can imagine, from the air. This is a pretty bold statement. Maybe as bold as our 90 day money back guarantee!

Blueair air purifiers are extremely quiet and efficient. The filter media allows air to pass through freely so that the fan doesn't have to work as hard. A less powerful fan translates to less noise. Even the housing of the Blueair air purifiers is designed with quiet operation in mind, replacing sound-sonant plastic with noise-muffling steel. Each Blueair air purifier comes with patented HEPASilent Filter Technology which offers near silent air cleaning for any area of your home or office.

Blueair is the system for people living with allergies, asthma, or other respiratory conditions, or for anyone who wants cleaner, more breathable air.

Oreck Air Purifiers use a five-stage purification process to clean the air. The diagram below illustrates the various purification stages. The five-stage purification process which Oreck uses effectively filters 95% of particles as minute as 0.1 microns. First, a pre-filter captures large particles such as hair, lint etc. Electricity is used to positively charge smaller particles, which are then locked in by the alternately charged plates of the collector cell.

Air purifiers are available to suit most room sizes. Locate the AHAM seal on the product packaging for the information detailing the appropriate room size for that particular air purifier. You may find that many air purifiers have their recommended room size information on or near the front of their packaging as well. Room size can range from 6′x9′ to 20′x24′ and are always related to the product AHAM test results.

Most air purifiers have an indicator light which comes on when it is time to change the air purifier's filter. These indicator lights are often set to a time period rotation so the filter will be reported as requiring changing regardless of how much dirty air has actually pass through it. Often as an extra qualification and to help you decide weather or not a air purifier filters need changing the manufacturers include a color-coded chart to help you get an idea as to how dirty the filter is.
