Choosing the Best Air Purifier for your Bedroom

Indoor air pollution is a serious health hazard and you should definitely consider buying an air purifier. Ideally, where should you install your purifier, you ask? You should choose an air purifier for the bedroom because you can be assured of a good night’s sleep, thanks to inhaling pure and fresh air. You will stay healthy and breathe better! Read on for more on how to choose the best appliance for the bedroom.

•   The first aspect to consider is the size of the room. Determine the square footage of the room and look up purifier models for that particular size bracket. This is because the efficiency of the appliance will be affected if you buy one with a capacity to clear a large area. It doesn’t make sense to buy an Air purifier that can freshen and clean up your air across an area of 100 sq. mt., when your bedroom is about 25 sq. mt. The opposite scenario, ie, one in which you need a purifier for a larger area but buy one to cover a very small space is also not feasible. You could buy one with a smaller range so the purifier will function efficiently.

•   Noise is another important aspect to consider when you are thinking of installing the purifiers in your bedroom. Always buy a unit which is appropriate for the size of the room, and the noise is also kept at bay. Opt for a model that has low or zero noise levels. When you opt for purifiers with a ‘smart suction’ feature, then the four-stage air flow mechanism smartly assesses the air quality and tweaks itself so that contaminants are eliminated on the basis of pollution and also the size of the room.

•   If you are someone who struggles with breathing issues or asthma, you should opt for a purifier with a high-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filter. Such filters remove all contaminants up to 0.3 microns at an efficiency rate of 99.97 percent. Check if the purifier model you are opting for has this filter so you can make the most of it.

•   Also, check for other smart features such as indicators that gauge air quality, LED display which notifies what level of impurity there is in the air by way of red, yellow or green lights, and reminders for filter replacement, among others. Intelligent settings are very important when you are choosing a purifier for the bedroom. This is because you don’t have to be disturbed to change them manually.

•   Before you buy, ask for warranty, and the duration it covers. It helps to find out the after-sales maintenance before you decide to buy. If you are buying online, you can check out customer reviews, testimonials and ratings before you place an order. It always helps to do your research before you invest in one of the models.
