Air purifiers are devices that remove pollutants from the air. They are becoming increasingly popular as people become more aware of the health risks associated with indoor air pollution.
Indoor air pollution can come from a variety of sources, including dust mites, pollen, pet dander, mould, smoke, and chemicals. These pollutants can trigger allergies and asthma symptoms, and can also increase the risk of respiratory infections, heart disease, and stroke.
Air purifiers can help to reduce indoor air pollution by filtering out pollutants and releasing clean air back into the room. Air purifiers can be used in any room in the house, but they are especially beneficial in bedrooms and living rooms, where people spend the most time.

Air purifiers can help to reduce indoor air pollution by filtering out pollutants and releasing clean air back into the room. Air purifiers can be used in any room in the house, but they are especially beneficial in bedrooms and living rooms, where people spend the most time.
There are two main types of air purifiers: HEPA air purifiers and carbon air purifiers.
- HEPA air purifiers use high-efficiency particulate air filters to remove particles from the air. HEPA filters are very effective at removing dust mites, pollen, pet dander, and mold spores.
- Carbon air purifiers use activated carbon filters to remove gases and chemicals from the air. Activated carbon filters are effective at removing smoke, cooking odours, and volatile organic compounds (VOCs).
Some air purifiers use a combination of HEPA and carbon filters to provide the most comprehensive protection from indoor air pollution.
Benefits of using an air purifier:
- Reduced allergy and asthma symptoms
- Improved respiratory health
- Reduced risk of heart disease and stroke
- Cleaner, healthier home environment
- Improved sleep quality
- Reduced stress levels
