Polluted air is a big problem in almost every region around the world and it can severely affect your health. Air Purifiers are a great way to tackle this problem. They can work continuously for hours to give a continuous flow of purified air. Here’s a look at some air purifiers in the market that can offer you fresh air, especially if you live in a highly polluted region.
The Dyson Pure Hot + Cool Air Purifier senses and offers data on the quality of the air in the room, making it ideal for those who live in polluted areas and want to keep tabs on the efficiency of their air purifier. The device delivers information regarding PM 2.5, PM 10, VOC, and NO2 levels, along with the overall AQ. You can access the same via the LCD or the Dyson Link app on your smartphone. The purifier has a 360-degree HEPA glass filter along with Tris Impregnated Activated Carbon Filter capture. The two are said to capture 99.9% of fine particles in the air, including particles smaller than PM 0.1. The purifier should be able to cover an area of 600sq.ft, making it perfect for medium-sized rooms.
The Sharp FP-J80M uses the company’s Active Plasmacluster technology to remove unwanted elements like bacteria, dust and even some viruses from the air. The Clean Air Delivery Rate (CADR) of the purifier is 480 cubic meters per hour and can cover an area of 680 Sq. ft. The Spot Mode present in the purifier is said to effectively clean pet odour and related allergens. The LED display shows the PM2.5 levels in real-time and when you sleep, the built-in light sensor automatically turns off the display so it doesn't disturb your sleep.
The Philips AC3256/20 is equipped with the Vitashield Intelligent purification system that is claimed to remove 99.97% of pollutants, including particles as small as 0.03 microns. The device delivers a CADR of 93 m3/hour and, based on the brand’s claims; it can purify a standard room in only eight minutes. The brand also states that this purifier is ideal for rooms sized between 31~95m². This purifier is a good option for people with dust allergies as it’s said to remove air-borne allergens thanks to the AL mode. It has even been tested to remove the H1N1 virus from the air.
For those looking for ease of use, the Honeywell Air Purifier i9 comes with a convenient auto mode. You can enable it by just pressing the power button. However, when customisation is the need, manual controls for fan speed, sleep mode and more are also available. The touch interface helps it deliver a sleek user experience. To keep it safe from any accidental falls, the model comes with an anti-fall design. The Honeywell i9 also comes with smart features like the ability to alert you when the filter needs replacing. It can dynamically adjust the purification performance depending on the pollution levels detected and even stop altogether when they’ve reached satisfactory values.
