How to Read Air Purifier Reviews
Trying to sit down and write a air purifier review can be pretty tricky as each user has their own needs and requirements. Whilst a unit might work perfectly for an allergy suffer it might be no good at helping someone who suffers from asthma.
The task of an air purifier is to remove pollutants from the air so that they don’t cause discomfort or lead to an allergic reaction. A hay fever sufferer will use an air purifier to clean the air of pollen so as to reduce the risk of an allergic reaction. Another person with a dust allergy will try to use a purifier to remove dust mite allergens from the air. Certain purifiers are good at removing one type of pollutant more than other types.
Every person needs an air purifier for different tasks, so I will review the air purifiers based on their success on dealing with every possible allergens and therefore marks will be based a per allergen basis.
You will generally need to use a laboratory to successful compare the efficiency of an air purifier in removing different allergens.
There is now a vast array of technology that purifiers utilise such as HEPA filers, UV and Ionizers. If you don’t understand how these types of technologies work then it can be hard to decide which is best for your problem.
In the Navy, HEPA was first created so that air could be purified on board submarines. The way that a HEPA purifier works is by using a polymer or paper filter that has so small holes that pollutants are stopped and blocked. At cleaning air, HEPA has good efficiency but the problem is that filters will need to be replaced. The cost of filters can be very high and in some cases can cost more than the price of an air purifier! If you are reading a review for a particular HEPA model then make sure you find out how much the filters cost and when they will need to be replaced.
After all the experiements, we found that the Oreck range was the best air purifier on the market. If you want to read more Air Purifiers then feel free to visit our website.
