Frequently Asked Questions
What are the main criteria when choosing an air purifier?
When choosing an air purifier, it is important to match its capacity to the room's square footage. A high-quality HEPA filter is also essential, along with a "Night Mode" feature, which ensures silent operation.
What is a HEPA filter?
HEPA is a high-efficiency filter that captures 99.97% of airborne microparticles, such as dust, exhaust fumes, and allergens.
Does an air purifier remove unpleasant odors and cigarette smoke?
Yes, it does, but only if the device is equipped with a carbon (activated charcoal) filter, which absorbs tobacco smoke. A carbon filter is essential for effectively combatting odors.
How often does the filter need to be replaced or cleaned?
HEPA and carbon filters cannot be cleaned; they must be replaced, typically every 6 to 12 months, depending on air pollution levels and frequency of use.
Is it safe to leave the air purifier on all night?
Yes, leaving the air purifier on all night is completely safe and beneficial, as it continuously cleans the air of allergens while operating in a dedicated, quiet Night Mode.
