Small Air Purifiers And H1N1Anyone who suffers from allergies or asthma understands the importance of having clean air to breathe. For these people, it is almost a lifeline between being sick and being healthy. But the H1N1 takes on a whole new picture. Once thought to impact only the very young or the very old, headlines make the papers of even the most ordinary people being killed by the deadly strain of flue bug. That is why it may be a good idea to think about investing in a small portable air purifier that can easily be taken anywhere. Portable air purifiers work in a similar way to standard air purifiers; however, unlike standard air purifiers, they create a ¡°safe zone,¡± so to speak, in front of the mouth, nose and eyes that repels dust, smoke, allergens and anything else light enough to float in the air. Preliminary studies have also shown that small portable air purifiers can reduce and even eliminate germs and toxins floating around in the air. HEPA filtration has the ability to capture bacteria and viruses. This makes a small air purifier a valuable tool for people who are susceptible to infections of the lungs such as pneumonia.
A recent study by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has revealed that small air purifiers with HEPA filtration systems, like Honeywell¡¯s 3-in-1, may eventually have the ability to capture and eliminate the influenza virus. An electrostatic purifier changes the charge of the particulates running through it so they become attracted to the internal material of the filter, whisking them away from the air itself. The problem with most conventional filters is that they use exactly that, a filter. When the filter becomes filled, it runs less effectively, eventually needing to be replaced. This is not true of electrostatic purifiers, as they can do the same as a conventional air purifier, but they are filterless, and work simply by changing the charge of the particles. This could be good news for millions of people all over the world who suffer annually from the flu virus. There are three common types of indoor air pollutants that can be completely eliminated or reduced by portable air purifiers. High Efficiency Particulate Air (HEPA) filtration air purifiers are designed to remove extremely small particles from the air. Because they do filter extremely small particles, a wide range of biological pollutants as well as non-biological particles can be removed from indoor air via HEPA filtration. Small air purifiers can also remove other fairly large particles as well, such as pollen, pet dander and even dust mites. Portable air purifiers are especially important to anyone who has allergies or other potentially life-threatening lung problems who likes to travel. During flu and allergy season an air purifier can be a real life saver. Anyone who has sat on a plane long enough or who has braved airport terminals during the busy season knows how nasty recirculated air can be. Another benefit of small air purifiers is their mobility. They can easily be carried and set up room to room as needed. A household in which one member has a cold can utilize the air purifier to help keep from spreading germs to other members of their family. For homes with school aged children, this is especially important, as young child can easily carry germs and viruses home with them. Portable air purifiers are also considerably less expensive than standard air purifiers. Most portable, small air purifiers run on lithium batteries, and some even come with a set of rechargeable batteries for unlimited use. These units are certainly a smart idea for anyone concerned about his or her health and are easily affordable for most budgets. |

True HEPA Air Purifiers
By Anthony J Davis
You will probably see items that are labeled "True" HEPA if you shop for HEPA air purifiers. So, I'm sure you're wondering, does that mean there's a false one? Of course you would never find a product that boldly proclaimed to be a sub-standard HEPA purifier, but to be called a True HEPA purifier, there are some differences. As with any other purchase, it's left to the consumer to figure out the differences and know if they need to look for one or the other.

Do Bionaire Air Purifiers Actually Work?
By Charlie Cory
Let's start by discussing the difference between an air cleaner and an air purifier. Air cleaning is when harmful particles are filtered from the air utilizing a filter. An air purifier goes a step further and kills harmful bacteria, mold, and viruses. Ionic air purifiers are referred to as purifiers, they do not operate as purifiers because they do not kill harmful material.
