Most air purifiers work in order to restore a healthy balance of particles in the air and destroy those which can harm us, but other air cleaners also work to neutralise odours that bother our life.
No matter why you’d like to have an air purifier, each one has different specifications which are responsible for permanent or temporary solutions regarding odours or pollutants. Let’s see what the best options for each situation are.
Cigarette Smoke The smoke that comes from cigarettes is made out of fine smoke particles which are chemically based and form unpleasant odours. Ozone generators are well known in removing unpleasant odours.
Another great alternative is to use an air cleaner that contains an activated carbon filter because the fibers of the filter react chemically thereby attaching to the particles of smoke.
Volatile Organic Compounds Certain chemical compounds produce VOC, and the most common producers are mold, smoke, bacteria and formaldehyde. The three most effective units used for this type of contaminant are ozone generators, air purifiers which contain an activated carbon filter, and finally photocatalytic filters that successfully destroy any kind of vapors and gasses.
Household Chemicals and Pet Odours Household chemicals we use to sanitize our homes can actually work against our health. Although they are meant to sanitize every surface from counter-tops to floors, they release toxic fumes and odours which are sometimes unpleasant and dangerous. In this case, the best solution is to use an air cleaner with an activated carbon filter because the fibers react with the fumes, and the bond they create ensures the household is free of any smells or toxic fumes.
The same options go for pet dander and pet related smells. An activated carbon filter will take care of the most common pet related smells, leaving you with clean and fresh air.
