No matter the season, clean air is important for your lungs, circulation, heart, and overall physical health. As people pay more and more attention to air quality, more and more people will choose to buy air purifiers at home. So what should consumers pay attention to when buying air purifiers?
LEEYO will give you a detailed introduction to the most worthy of attention when purchasing air purification.
1. CADR value.
CADR reflects the amount of clean air produced by the air purifier at the highest speed setting in cubic feet per minute. Consumers just need to know that the higher the CADR per unit area, the faster and more efficient the air purifier will be.
Here is an example for you. If a space of 42 square meters is used and the house space is about 120 cubic meters, then multiply the cubic meters by 5 to get the value of 600, and an air purifier with a CADR value of 600 is suitable Products for your 42-square-meter living room.
2. Room size
When purchasing an air purifier, we need to choose the type of purchase based on our actual area. If it is to be used in a spacious and large area such as the whole house and living room, you can buy a floor-standing air purifier with a high CADR value. If it is only used in a desk, bedside table, etc., you can directly buy a desktop air purifier. .
Basically every air purifier product will indicate its applicable space, we just need to buy it as needed.
3. Targeted purification pollution
The market is mainly divided into formaldehyde and other TVOC and PM2.5 particulate matter purifiers. If you are mainly targeting formaldehyde and second-hand smoke, then you need to pay more attention to the purification indicators of formaldehyde. If you pay more attention to PM2.5, dust, pollen and other particulate matter, then you need to pay attention to PM2.5 purification indicators.
At present, the filter screen for purifying dust and PM2.5 is generally directly related to the filter screen grade. HEPA 11, 12, and 13 levels are different, and the filter efficiency is also increased accordingly. Simple understanding, the higher the filter grade, the better, but it is not that the higher the filter grade, the more suitable for our consumers. Generally speaking, the purification efficiency of H11 and 12 filters in the middle grade is suitable for the vast majority. consumer family. And we also need to take into account the cost of subsequent filter replacements.
4. Noise
Judge the performance of an air purifier not only by its performance, but also by how well you can live with it. Because these machines should always be running, ideally they should also be quiet. (For reference, a noise level of about 50 decibels is roughly equivalent to the hum of a refrigerator.) You can find a model’s decibel level on its packaging or website listing before you buy it. For example, when the LEEYO A60 operates in sleep mode, the decibel is as low as 37dB, which is almost silent, even smaller than whispering by the ear.
How to get the most out of your air purifier
Clean or replace the filter regularly. If an air purifier’s filter is dirty, it won’t work efficiently. Generally, you should change your filters (or clean those that can vacuum) every 6 to 12 months, and every three months for pleated filters and activated carbon filters.
5. Certification
Before buying, you can look at the performance of the purchased air purifier, as well as the professional test certificate that promises sterilization and dust removal. In this way, you can avoid buying air purifier products that do not meet national standards as much as possible.
Of course, in addition to the above priority points, when purchasing an air purifier, you can also consider whether there are user-friendly features:
Filter life reminder
When the filter needs to be replaced (or cleaned), this light will flash to remind consumers that it should be replaced.
Carry handle and swivel wheels
Since most people are buying air purifiers and prefer whole-house management, floor-standing air purifiers are more popular among home consumers. But floor-standing air purifiers have a certain volume and weight, and if you plan to move from one room to another, buy a model with casters that can easily be moved anywhere.
remote control
This allows you to easily adjust settings from across the room.
One last reminder:
To avoid noise disturbances, we recommend running your device on a high setting when you’re not in the room, and turning it down to a low speed when you’re nearby. Also make sure to place the air purifier where nothing can obstruct the airflow—for example, away from curtains.
