õhupuhastajatele

õhupuhastajatele, meaning "for air purifiers" in Estonian, refers to the devices designed to remove pollutants from indoor air. These appliances are commonly used in homes, offices, and other enclosed spaces to improve air quality and create a healthier living or working environment.

The primary function of an air purifier is to trap airborne particles such as dust, pollen, pet dander, mold spores, and smoke. Many models also incorporate activated carbon filters to absorb odors, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and other gaseous pollutants. The effectiveness of an air purifier depends on several factors, including the type and number of filters used, the size of the room it is intended for, and the airflow rate (measured in CADR - Clean Air Delivery Rate).

Different types of air purification technologies exist. HEPA (High-Efficiency Particulate Air) filters are widely recognized for their ability to capture at least 99.97% of particles that are 0.3 microns in size. Other technologies may include UV-C light for killing bacteria and viruses, or ionizers that release charged particles to neutralize pollutants. However, some ionizers can produce ozone, which can be a lung irritant, so choosing a unit with proper certifications is important.

Regular maintenance, such as cleaning or replacing filters, is crucial for an air purifier to function optimally and continue to provide clean air. The selection of an õhupuhastajatele should be based on individual needs, considering room size, specific air quality concerns, and desired features.
