After Covid, the number of people buying air purifiers for home and office has increased. But how do you know if you need an air purifier?
Air quality
You can buy an air purifier for your home or office if the place is full of air pollution, lack of ventilation, smoking or cooking inside the house.
Respiratory diseases and allergies
If you suffer from asthma, allergies, or other breathing problems in your home, it would be a good idea to purchase an air purifier

How does an air purifier work?
The air purifier cleans impure air by filtering it in multiple stages. Let's see how they work
1. Air filtration
The air inside your home or office is drawn in by the fan inside the purifier and passed through the filter inside the air purifier. These filters absorb dust, smoke particles, pollutants and allergens from the air.
2. Prefiltration
In some air purifiers, the air passes through a pre-filter before reaching the main filter. At this stage it will attract all the larger particles in the air.
3. HEPA filtration
The filter used by some air purifiers is high-efficiency particulate air. HEPA has the ability to absorb bacteria, allergens and even the smallest dust particles.
4. Additional filters
Air purifiers also use filters such as activated carbon filters and plasma filtration.
5. Circulation
The air that passes through the filter and cleaner reaches the room again.
