Desktop Air Purifiers

Air purifiers have become popular in recent years, as according to the research, they reduce the risk of allergies, bronchitis and asthma.

Choosing a desktop air purifier you should take into account the size of the room that should be filtered and the number of features, which you want the unit to provide you with. These appliances can clean air within a surrounding distance of 125 sq. ft., so if you have a bigger working space, then the unit won't cope with that amount of air and it won't provide you with efficient performance. Desktop cleaners are good for study tables, separate office-rooms and open-offices with cubicles. They are mainly electrically operated and lightweight, so they can be easily shifted or moved around from one room to another.

Ionic units have several variations, as: negative ion generators, air cleaners with photocatalytic oxidation and non-thermal ionic corona discharge plasma purifier. HEPA filter systems remove over 99.97% of airborne particles, which are larger than 0.3 microns, and the filter should be replaced periodically. Ionic cleaners generate negative ions in the atmosphere and discharge the pollutants; electrostatic appliances collect pollutants onto the plate; negative ion generators create an electron-rich atmosphere and they are efficient in single room; air cleaner with photocatalytic technology are considered to be the most widespread and efficient in air purification; non-thermal ionic purifiers are currently one of the most popular units, as they can filter air in small, confined places.
