Heaters and air conditioners are both home comfort systems, but you certainly wouldn’t run your air conditioner in January. Well, just as you must use the appropriate comfort system for your needs at any given time, so too must you use the right air cleaner. Only then will your Indoor Air Quality meet your expectations.
Electronic air cleaners are a great place to start. These devices may vary from model to model, but the general idea is the same. By pulling air into an ionization chamber, the electronic air cleaner is able to give the pollutants within that air an electric charge. Once it has, it can collect those pollutants on oppositely charged collector plates, which are then simply removed and cleaned.
For biological pollutants, though, pollutant collection is not really the best way to go. Even if your system were able to trap such pollutants, after all, they could continue to thrive once they were trapped, reproducing and causing further issues. A system such as a UV (ultraviolet) air purifier allows homeowners to actively destroy these pollutants. These systems won’t remove dirt and dust, though, so you may want to consider a multi-pronged approach to improving air quality.
