How to find the
right air purifier
for me?

Air purifiers for homes come in various configurations, each catering to a specific need. One air purifier does not clean the air in your entire house. Air purifiers can only purify the air in one enclosed space, or room at a time, and must be kept away from walls and pillars for best performance. The 3 main factors to consider before installing an air purifier at home are:

Purpose of the room

Every area in a house serves a different purpose. Some rooms house pets while others are used for hobbies like DIY projects, sewing, or painting. Each room will require a specific type of air purification depending on contaminants like pet dander, pollen, paint fumes, microscopic dust, fabric fibres, smoke etc. Besides, the occupants of a room may also have their unique requirements, like senior citizens, pregnant women, infants, asthmatics. While installing an air purifier, consider the contaminants present in the room, as well as the requirements of the occupants.

Air quality in the room

Factors like the number of people visiting a room, the usage of the room, the size of the room, and the number of open windows affect the air quality of the room. Rooms with large open windows and plenty of foot traffic like the living room have a different air quality than rooms that have a few occupants for a few hours a day, like a study room. When installing an air purifier, consider one that is designed to treat the specific air quality of that room.

Size of the room

The volume of the space that is being treated is also an important factor. In most houses, each room has a unique size depending on its usage. Some rooms are also combined with others and share the air between them.
