Electronic Air Cleaners For Fresh Clean Air Indoors
By Joel F Morningstar
Electronic air cleaners do a great job of transforming the polluted
air that is trapped in your home by energy efficient doors and
windows. They can give you fresh, clean air to breathe that is
free of the contaminants and pollutants that are commonly found
in homes.
Almost like sweeping a magnet through the air, these air purifiers
attract, collect and contain all kinds of pollutants such as tobacco
smoke, allergens, dust mites and dust mite feces, pet dander,
mold and much more.
Microscopic particles by the millions are able to be collected
and removed from the indoor atmosphere as the air passes through
the home air purifier.
Large And Small Particles Removed From The Air
At that time, when the air passes through the device, the largest
particles are caught in the screen of the pre-filter and the smaller
particles then move on to the next section where they receive
an electrical charge by ionization.
Once these tiny particles are charged, they then pass on to the
collection unit where they are attracted electronically to a series
of charged collector plates. The particulates are essentially
stuck to these collection plates until they are washed clean during
regular maintenance.
Ten To Twenty Times More Effective Than Common Filters
By some estimates, electronic air cleaners can be from ten to
twenty times more productive at removing the particulates in your
home than the cleaners that only utilize common filters to do
the job.
The reason for that, is that a HEPA rated filter will eliminate
99.97% of the pollutants in the air, even the ones that are down
to 0.3 microns in size. While that is a significant portion of
particulates that can be captured, some smaller particles can
accumulate unchecked and over time build up to major proportions.
Carbon Filters Remove Odors
Because all of the particles, no matter how small, are charged
and collected through the process employed by the electronic purifiers,
they are removed from the air you breath and do not have the opportunity
to build into a problem situation.
Many of these types of room air purifiers additionally have carbon
filters integrated into the units which are useful for removing
odors such a tobacco smoke, cooking odors and the like.
Range From Small Units To Larger Units
Electronic air cleaners can be found in many different makes
and models and they also encompass many price ranges. There are
small, stand-alone units that would be appropriate for one or
two rooms, medium stand-alone units that would be sufficient for
small to medium size homes, and large units that are installed
into the forced air system of the home, allowing for air purification
throughout the home.
Because we now spend so much of our daily lives indoors -- up
to 90% for most people by some estimates, it is even more important
to review our options and have the environment where we live and
breathe, be as clean as possible.
Over time, the common products that we use on a daily basis,
such as aerosols, cleaners and sprays, become trapped in our modern,
airtight homes and can build up to toxic levels.
Reduce Air Pollution Inside Your Home
In addition, the ordinary pollutants that can also build up such
as molds, pollen and other allergens, it is clear that it is imperative
to take steps to cleanse and purify the air in your home. Home
air purifiers will ensure clean air for the health and well-being
of you and your family.
One of the reasons for the fact that there are more and more
people with allergies and asthma these days is because of the
state of the air inside homes, which is said to be 30 times more
contaminated than fresh air from outdoors. Electronic air cleaners
have proven to be efficient and cost effective in the battle against
indoor pollution.

Little Known Air Purifier Facts....
Sniffling, sneezing, wheezing and coughing are just some of the
symptoms associated with allergies. Spring brings not only flowers
blooming, but pollen as well. This means months of itchy, watery
eyes and a feeling that you may never be fit again.
The outside world may be filled with allergens but that does
not mean your house has to be. Air purifiers can help relieve
those runny noses and bloodshot eyes by filtering the air in your
house.
