Cleaning Air With Ozone
Ozone, once created by the air purifier, is sent out to the room where it reacts with the pollutants contained in the air. The ozone acts to break down these pollutants through oxidization and therefore turning them into carbon dioxide and ash which are negatively charged. With this, these non-harmful ashes can be cleaned together with other particles when the room is cleaned. Through this process, the air purifier works to destroy dust, pollen, mold, dust and smoke which is found in the environment indoors. The Prozone air purifier also does not require any filters to be replaced and nothing to be cleaned.
Types Of Prozone Air Purifiers
There are two types of Prozone purifiers available: room air purifiers and purifiers for the whole house. The room air purifier is designed to be portable and to be turned off and on whenever air needs to be cleaned. On the other hand, the Prozone air filter for the whole house contains two UV-C lamps and allows ozone to be turned off or on. Furthermore, this air purifier is designed to operate continuously as well as independently.
Finally, as the purifier utilizes ozone to clean the air, this has caused concern amongst certain groups of consumers. This is because ozone has been found to be a lung irritant and is also not environmentally friendly. Apart from that, the safe levels of ozone emitted by the Prozone air purifiers is debatable, as well as the uncertainty surrounding its ability to break down the pollutants.
Biozone Air Purification Technologies
Biozone air cleaners merge four advanced engineered electronics methods in their purifiers to clean the indoor environment.
- Photolic ozonation (an euphemism for chemically active oxygen atoms) is applicable to eliminate odors, make harmless certain gases, and destroy live contaminants found in the air and also on top of many surfaces. In order to control the accumulation of ozone, Biozone uses SafeZone, a fail-safe method which detects ozone levels in its surrounding environment and automatically reduces its production of ozone to safer levels. However, this claim has not been scientifically tested for its effectiveness.
- Next, certain concentrated ultraviolet light is also used to kill micro organisms such as bacteria and viruses. Ultra-violet light, widely used in sanitizing scientific equipments and medical rooms helps destroy excessive ozone molecules, keeps the two systems in balance.
- In addition to that, purifying hydroxyls which can be formed from air components, aids further destruction of contaminants. The combination of ultraviolet light and purifying plasma can clean air and surfaces up to 2000 times faster than ozone alone and compared to just ultraviolet light, 180 times faster.
- Finally, the production of negative ions which attracts solid particles such as dust and pollen and even soot, helps to clear them from the environment. The Biozone air purifier then blows the purified air back into the room, carrying purifying agents to clean the air of stubborn contaminants and unpleasant odors.
All Bionaire air cleaners feature an independent ionizer which can be turned on or off regardless of the mode the cleaner is on. The ionizer releases negative ions into the air to join staticly with positively charged particles such as smoke, dust or pollen which can then be more easily filtered through the HEPA filters, giving you cleaner, more breathable air. Futhermore, each Bionaire air purifier is equipped with Microban Antimicrobial Product Protection which helps preserve the HEPA filter against odor-causing bacteria and more importantly helps extend the life of your HEPA filter.
For even more features, there is the Galileo HEPA Air Purifier. This model is equipped with a built-in air quality sensor which increases fan speeds in times of need. Apart from that, there are 3 adjustable fan speed settings for easy control. This purifier is also programmable for sleep mode ensuring usage in the bedroom. Built in within is a much appreciated feature known as the dual operational positioning for easier access to their options, without the need to move your purifier. Overall, Bionaire’s air purifiers have been designed with refined style and sophistication: versatile, slim and compact, they blend in with the room instead of sticking out like a sore thumb.
The weight of this brand of air purifiers may make portability an issue for some. One of such models is The Eagle 5000, which weighs at 35 pounds and works to clear heavy particles such as smoke and dust from the air. This makes it most ideal for smoky bars, restaurants and bowling alleys. Its 100% filled activated charcoal filter significantly reduces a wide variety of odors from the room atmosphere. The fairly lighter Flair, at 10.6 pounds, is more suited to a home or office environment and covers up to an area of 2200 sq ft. It includes a sanitizing feature for eliminating mold, mildew, bacteria and odors from indoor air. Other features of this model are its low maintenance with no installation required.
The air purification system known as the Living Air Classic is perfect for indoor areas up to 3000 sq ft. Extremely quiet during operation, it surprises users with highly effective air purification. This model also comes with an ionizer and an EcoHelp filter for additional air cleaning benefits and weighs only 19 pounds. Finally, the Living Air Breeze AT model functions to cover an area of up to 2 500 sq ft and is also lightweight at less than 17 pounds. It uses two filter plates which has a life expectancy of 1 – 3 years, through routine care and handling. Apart from that, this Alpine air purifier also comes with its own remote control which comes with a 6-month warranty.
Silent purifiers from Sharper Image are also products that are value for money. Aside from the technology of noiseless high precision air filtering, the company provides many worthwhile features and advantages. Being the only brand with the Seal of the Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America and the endorsement of the British Allergy Foundation, silent air purifiers from Sharper Image offers an astounding 5 year warranty on top of its excellent performance proven purifiers.

These silent purifiers are made to be environmentally friendly, energy efficient while still able to deliver the performance on par with other current heavy duty industry standard air purifiers. A very notable extra from Blue Air is that the company offers a 10 year warranty scheme on its products.
The wide variety of air purifiers is important, if not essential, to almost every household. The obvious benefits merely gives another reason for every household to own one, in order to ensure a comfortable and healthy living. Breathing fresh and clean air is the best way to start the day.
Basically, all air purifiers function by trapping smoke, pollen, dust, animal dander, dust mites, mold spores, chemical fumes, bacteria, viruses, and odours within the filters, thereby cleaning the air. Some portable air purifiers are even equipped with UV germicidal light to kill microorganisms in the air. Usually, there are three or four fan speeds to circulate air through the air purifier to be filtered and purified, depending on the level of air quality. A number of air purifiers have sensors that adjust the fan speed automatically by detecting the amount of particles trapped in the filters. In addition, some special air purifiers even have timers that can be set up to eight hours in total.
Generally, the filters are easily cleaned. Most of the time, the filter may just be cleaned with a vacuum cleaner or hand washed with the cleaning process repeated once every six to eight months. However, for portable air purifiers that are used in automatic mode 24 hours a day, then the filter may need to be cleaned more regularly, probably once every two to three months with lukewarm water solution combined with mild detergent.
In summary, ‘Prevention is better than cure’. Get a portable air purifier for yourself and avoid the risk of getting respiratory health problems linked to low indoor air quality!
Indoor air cleaners act to filter out contaminants in the air which contains particles that are hazardous and harmful to the respiratory system. There is a wide variety of indoor purifiers available in the market, each of them with their own unique traits and physical dimensions. Most of them are equipped with HEPA (High Efficiency Particulate) filters, which are tested by of the Department of Environment. In fact, international air filter standards are used for the testing of the HEPA filter in order to maintain product quality and efficiency. This is why HEPA filters are very popular throughout mainstream indoor air purifiers.
These HEPA filters help give the ability to indoor air purifiers to remove 99.97% of particles from the air, up to a size of 0.3 micron. However, these filters have to be changed regularly in order for the air purifier filter to maintain its effectiveness and efficiency in cleaning indoor air. However, if the air purifiers are equipped with electrostatic charged plates in addition to the HEPA filters, then the frequency of change can be reduced.
Finally, indoor air purifiers are also equipped with charcoal filters to filter out the smell and odors from the air, such as tobacco odor, in order to release only fresh-smelling air-flow into the room.
How An Electrostatic Air Filter Works
Air which passes through the filter produces friction which causes static charges between the hairs of the fibers within the filter. This static charge attracts particles in the air which is passing through and captures it within the metal plates of the electrostatic air filter.
With this, once these filters are cleaned with water through a water hose once in a while, they can then be used again. As they don’t suffer much wear and tear, these electrostatic air filters are also given a lifetime warranty by their producers. Apart from that, the external construction is made from non-corrosive material which will not degrade due to heat from prolonged usage.
Additionally, electrostatic air purifiers are also very cost efficient as they do not require much energy to operate. Therefore, using these electrostatic filters will not hike up your electricity bills. These filters also come in many sizes and shapes, are easy to install and are also environmentally safe as they do not emit ozone into the air for cleaning purposes. Finally, with an electrostatic purifier, you will be sure that your home will be free from any pollutants which may cause allergic reactions to those within your home. Therefore, with an electro static air filter, everyone in your home will be able to breathe easier and feel fresher as well.
Biozone Commercial Air Purifiers
Commercial air purifiers by Biozone for instance are perfect for industrial uses where large spaces of heavily contaminable areas need to be kept in control. Several units of Biozone ATC 3 for instance, are able to cover up to 14000 square feet of space, which is sufficient to maintain the air quality within industrial factories that are prone to air pollution. Nevertheless, commercial units cost a lot more than their domestic counterparts and could rake as high as $2000 per unit. As expensive as they are, these indispensable products yield great importance in ensuring a better place to work or stay in.
IQAir Air Purifiers
Commercial air purification systems are of the utmost importance in hospitals and dental institutions. Certain commercial purifiers by IQAir like IQ Air Dental Pro and IQAir CleanRoom are designed specifically for use in hospitals and dental institutions that require the cleanest and purest of air. They help to maintain fresh air quality which in turn promotes a healthier environment for the staff and especially the patients.
