Features Of Lumipure Air Purifiers
The Lumipure Permanent Filter air purifier carries out air purification processes through an electrostatic filtration system, a HEPA filter, the patented Permanent Filter by Lumipure as well as a germicidal ultraviolet light. Each filtration stage is targeted at clearing different pollutants such as smoke and dust, pollen and pet dander. In addition, the three speed controls for the fan helps to suck air into the air purifier during the filtration process and is also claimed to be ultra quiet.
This filtration machine stands a little over two feet tall and seven inches in diameter and is made available in white or black. Apart from that, the cylindrical shape design is rather unique amongst air purifiers as it allows the air purifier to be placed neatly at a corner.
How Does A Lumipure Purifier Work?
- The electrostatic filter charges up particles in the air so that these particles will be attracted to the filter, thus increasing the filtration rate. This process will help eliminate odors from tobacco smoke as well as pollutants such as dust.
- Secondly, the HEPA filter which is capable of a higher degree of filtration, will filter out smaller particulates which passes through it. The Permanent Filter works by removing harmful particles from the filtered air going through their cylinder.
- Lastly, the ultraviolet light further sanitizes the cleaned air by killing off airborne bacteria and viruses within seconds. Ultraviolet light-bulbs will only need to be replaced after 10,000 hours of use, translating to 13 months of 24-hour, 7 days a week usage. Additionally, two ultraviolet lightbulbs come with every purchase of the Lumipure air purifier.

Ozone air purifiers work by releasing ozone into the air. Ozone is a molecule that has three atoms of oxygen as opposed to oxygen that has only two atoms. The additional oxygen atom in ozone has the ability to separate from ozone and attach itself to molecules of harmful contaminants. When this happens, the chemical composition of the harmful particles changes and becomes such that it is not harmful to breathe anymore. This is the basic principle on which ozone air cleaners work.
Features Of Ozone Air Purifiers
They contain an ozone generator that releases ozone into the air for purification.- Ozone purifiers are filter-less purifiers.
- Ozone air purifiers do not require the air to be circulated within the purifier for purification purposes.
- They emit a peculiar smell that is due to the release of ozone.
- It can be available with other purification technologies incorporated into one air purifier.
Ozone Air Purifier Benefits
- Since an ozone air purifier does not need the air to be circulated through a main air filter, it can purify large amounts of air in a considerably shorter amount of time than most other air purifiers.
- They help to not only remove but destroy harmful bacteria, organisms, and chemicals in the air.
- They are especially effective in removing gases and horrible odors such as cigar smoke, kitchen fumes etc from the air.
- These air purifiers are very effective for use in pubs, saloons, and bars, where there is a lot of pollution due to cigarette smoke and other contaminants. In such places, an ozone purifier can make the air cleaner and free from any unpleasant smells.
- They can reduce the presence of mold spores from the air and can thus help to minimize asthmatic symptoms, hay fever, allergies etc.
Many people notice how the natural air, feels and smells, so much more clean and pure, after lightning storms and heavy rain. This is because, due to the lightning, ozone or activated oxygen is released into the air, which makes it feel so much purer. An ozone air purifier can duplicate that kind of feeling in your home or office, by releasing the same type of activated oxygen molecules into your indoor air.
What Is An Ionic Air Purifier?
Ionic air purifiers (also known as ionizers) have something that is known as a negative ion generator. This generator releases negative ions into the air. The negative ions thus released, attach to molecules in the air and change the polarity of such molecules. Once these molecules and harmful particles become charged, they attract other such particles and join to them. This continuous joining makes the particles too heavy to remain in the air, and they either fall to the ground or become attached to positively charged surfaces such as furniture, walls etc.
Once these particles are removed from the air, they can easily be removed from the area by regular cleaning and vacuuming. Many of these air purifiers have collection plates as well, which attracts the heavy particles and collects them on the plate instead of letting them fall to the floor.
Features Of Ionic Air Purifiers
- They do not have any filters that need to be changed or replaced continuously.
- Ionizers have collection plates to gather the particles that fall out of the air, and these plates are very easy to clean.
- Ionic air purifiers have in-built fans for superior circulation of air and can release negative ions even on the other side of the room from where the Ionic air purifier is located.
- These purifiers remove particles as small as 0.01 microns from the air.
Benefits Of Ionic Air Purifiers
- Ionic air purifiers are not very expensive.
- Ionizers help to rid the air of all kinds of harmful particles, bacteria, dust, smoke etc. Even though they do not actually kill the molecules, they remove them from the air and deposit them on other surfaces from where the harmful particles can easily be vacuumed away.
- They release thousands of negative ions into the air, so even if the fallen particles are disturbed and come back into the air, the continuous release of negative ions helps to rid them from the air once again.
- They remove all kinds of odors from the air as well.
- They have a very quiet operation and will not disturb you due to excessive noise.
Ion Air Purifiers Explained
An ion air purifier is a type of electronic air purifier and is also know as an ionizer. It works by sending out negatively charged ions into the air. The ion generator, inside the ion purifier, sends out a steady stream of negative ions into the air in a room.
An ion is an atom with an ion missing. Thus, when these ions are sent out in the air, they attach to other molecules and ions, thus forming a complete atom. This process continues till the molecules become so heavy and big that they cannot float around in the air. The particulates either fall to the ground, or become attracted to positively charged surfaces in the room, such as furniture, upholstery, fixtures, walls, etc.
Once the harmful particulates are removed from the air, they can then be removed entirely from the room, through regular vacuuming and cleaning. Even if the particulates are disturbed and sent back into the air because of regular movement of people and animals, the steady release of ions, will once again ensure that they are removed from the air, thus purifying it completely.
Benefits Of An Ion Air Purifier
- They are not as expensive as other kinds of air purification systems.
- An Ion air purifier is not very noisy and is perfect for those who get disturbed even with the slightest of sounds.
- Ion air purification systems help to remove all kinds of harmful particles, bacteria, dust, smoke etc from indoor air. Even though the molecules are not actually destroyed, ion air purifiers help to drop them on other surfaces from where the unsafe contaminants can easily be vacuumed away.
- They help in removing unpleasant smells from the air as well.
- Ion air purifiers are filter-less air purifiers, and thus you do not have to contend with any filters, which need to continuously be replaced or cared for. This also helps in reducing your maintenance costs.
What Is A Home Air Filter?
This is a filter that is used in various appliances and air purification systems in a home. The quality of indoor air, in homes, is deteriorating by the day, because of increase in pollution levels, domestic pets, and many other factors. Breathing in such air can often lead to medical problems in people, such as allergies and other reactions.
In order to avoid and minimize health complications because of impure air, many people choose to have air purification systems in the house, most of which require an air filter for effective purification.
Applications Of Home Air Filters
These can be used in the following appliances and areas commonly found in homes.
- Air conditioner air filter: These are used inside air-conditioners. Such filters prevent dust from getting inside the air conditioner and also allow for maximum air flow into the air-conditioner. This helps to give you absolutely clean and cool air, to provide you with health and comfort.
- Air filters for air cleaning devices: House air filters are also used in most air purification systems. They capture the particulates from the air and then pass such air into the purification system so as to rid it of harmful germs and other microorganisms. Many air purification systems do not use air filters. But although such systems get rid of microorganisms, they cannot control the particulates present in the air, without the use of home air filters.
- Furnace air filters: These are used to protect your indoor heating systems, and provide you with clean warm air.
- Vent air filters: These filters fit onto the vents in your home, to prevent objects from falling into ducts, and also help to trap harmful particles from the air.
Home air filters are available in many standard sizes, with some manufacturers offering as many as 40 standard sizes to choose from. If you still don’t find an air filter for your home that suits your requirements, you can get one custom made, to the exact specifications of your appliance that requires a home air filter.
