All Hunter purifiers are designed for allergy relief and filters out airborne particles such as smoke, dust, pollen and mold. These are particles that usually cause allergy amongst asthma patients as well as people with breathing problems. With the use of a Hunter air purifier in a room, they will be able to sleep well through the night. This is possible as each Hunter air purifier is equipped with HEPA filters that helps filter out 99.97% of all particles in the air, up to a size of 0.3 micron.
Hunter Air Purifier Models
Hunter air purifiers come in two ranges, the QuietFlo True HEPA units and the HEPAtech ranges. Different units come in varying sizes and capacities to fit room sizes, individual requirements as well as budgets. For example, the Hunter Hepatech 67 Air Purifier comes with a 3-speed quiet motor, air ionizer for air that smells fresh and a mechanical filter with a 126 Clean Air Delivery Rate. It also comes in 2 sizes. Alternatively, the Hunter Hepatech 57 also comes with similar specifications but with only a 95 Clean Air Delivery Rate. In general, the Hepatech range offers value for money.
On the other hand, the air purifiers of the QuietFlo True range all include Clean Air Delivery Rate levels as well as clean air protection for a specified room size area. They are also fitted with carbon pre-filters and LED screens to show reminders for change of air filters. Basically, the QuietFlo True range of Hunter air cleaners provide extended filter lives as well as a more effective cleaning system.
GE HEPA air purifiers work by drawing air from the surrounding area through the front grill and passes the air through a foam pre-filter, a SmartAire charcoal filter and finally a SmartAire HEPA filter. The filtered air will then be released out into the room, free from smoke, dust, mold spores, pet dander and pollen via the top outlet. In fact, the GE air purifier has it stated in the manual that the filter is capable of removing 99.97% of airborne particles down to the size of 0.3 microns.
Apart from that, the design of the HEPA air purifier allows it to be upright or lying on its side. As long as the grilled outlets are not blocked, the air purifier will function smoothly. There is also a filter life monitor which utilizes green, yellow and red to indicate the condition of the filters. Newly installed filters will be monitored as green, accumulated filter pores is represented as yellow whilst if the red light pops up, it is time to change your filters. The HEPA filters need replacing only once every 12 to 18 months whereas the carbon filters need replacements every 3 to 6 months, depending on the usage. The unique design of the filters allow users to just slide the carbon filter onto the surface of the HEPA Filter, merging the two as a single filter. The GE HEPA air purifier has a 5 year limited warranty.
Perhaps not known to many, air conditioners act like a refrigerator and only cool down the air in the house. The term conditioner is often mistaken and they really serve no other purpose but to cool the air. On the other hand, whole house air purifiers work to help improve the quality of air within homes. Whole house purifiers are able to filter airborne particles anywhere from germs, bacteria, pet dander, mold spores and also keep the household fresh of odors from tobacco smoke and chemicals.
Apart from that, certain house air purifiers are also able to create and distribute ozone around the house. Ozone emitted by home air purifiers react with the contaminant particles in the air and turn them into ash that can be swept away later.
Apart from that, carbon filters used in these whole house air purifiers help to eliminate the presence of odors. Another problem which most households have is the presence of molds. These air purifiers that are made specifically to generate ozone would be extremely efficient in removing formed mold. Recently, there has been a controversy surrounding the efficiency of utilizing ozone in whole house air purification, as it is doubtful on the safety levels of the ozone generated.
While air conditioners are able to cool the air more efficiently, whole house air cleaners will ensure the air is clean with no harmful bacteria or wastes. Having pure and clean air will ensure that every person that lives in the house be safe from potential diseases which air conditioners cannot deter.
