Do Air Purifiers Really Work?

The short answer is yes! Air purifiers are designed to filter the air in your home. However, you’ll better understand how they work by learning about how air purifiers work, their benefits, and factors to be aware of.

  • How do they work? Most air purifiers use a filtration system to remove particles from the air and recirculate the clean air. The exact way they work depends on the brand and type. But in its basic form, air purifiers have a fan that draws in air. The air passes through some sort of filter, which traps particles of various sizes. Finally, the clean air is recirculated back into your home. The filter will need to be changed regularly. And it’s important to remember that not all filters work the same or filter out the same kinds of particles.
  • What are the benefits of using an air purifier? Since dust, pollen, and other irritants get trapped inside your home, an air purifier will remove them from the air you breathe and improve the quality of the air you and your family breathe. Air purifiers reduce allergy symptoms, inflammation, and blood pressure and improve asthma symptoms.
  • Factors to keep in mind – Going back to the original question, do they work? Yes, but they do have limitations. The benefits derived from using an air purifier depend on what type of purifier your use, where you use it, the initial level of air pollution, and how often you replace the filters.

Ways to Maximize the Benefits of an Air Purifier

Using an air purifier and other cleaning methods will maximize the benefits. These tips will help your entire HVAC system run more efficiently. Some of these methods include regularly:

  • Sweeping
  • Mopping
  • Vacuuming
  • Dusting
  • Cleaning rugs and carpet
