Guide to Selecting a High Quality Air Filtration Unit
They come from a variety of technologies. Every air purification system offers a set of strengths and user-benefits. They also come hindered with certain weaknesses. Pay attention as you learn how to best combine air purification technologies.
The goal: Pull together the advantages; eliminate the disadvantages.
Air Filters – The Starting Point
This is your default air purifier. A typical high-quality air filter will remove contaminates as small as 0.3 microns. The strengths of a high-quality air filter system include:
Removes some bacteria
Removes most dust, mold spores and other allergens
Captures most solid particles.
Weakness include:
Has no effect on gases, chemical fumes or smoke odors
Cannot capture germs, viruses or other ultra-fine contaminates
Limited range of effectiveness
May enable breeding of micro-organisms.
Ways to Strengthen Basic Filtration
When selecting a high-quality air purification unit, consider these technologies that work with, enhance and compliment basic filtration methods.
Air Ionizer Systems – Designed to change the polarity of airborne particles, air ionizers create negative ions which cause a magnetic bonding of the affected airborne particles. As a result, even ultra-fine particles become too heavy to remain airborne.
Strengths include:
Removes particles up to 0.01 microns
Neutralizes bacteria, chemical fumes, cigarette smoke and viruses
Extended range of effect.
Weaknesses include:
No collection method
Fails to remove odors
Captures but does not kill germs, fungi and some viruses
Limited effect on airborne chemical particles.
Activated Carbon Air Filter Systems – Use highly adsorbent, molecular size pores to create a chemical bond that traps gases, liquid contaminates and other odorous particles.
Strengths include:
Most technologically advanced filter for capturing odors
Retains captured contaminates
Weaknesses include:
Poor performance against dust and other common allergens
Ineffective against micro-organisms
Limited range of effect.
Other Methods – Include: 1) Germicidal UV Lamps designed to destroy bacteria, germs, fungi and viruses; 2) Highly reactive oxidant Ozone Generators designed to destroy bacteria and chemical related odors.
