Air Purifiers

[escaflowne]

Most of the time we are outside our home breathing polluted air.I am thinking of a Air Purifier for home.Fresh and clean air is need of the hour.With the vehicles and pollution level increasing it very difficult to get clean air.

I am thinking of an Air Purifier at home or go Natural way and get some plants which produces oxygen at good rate.Pour in your suggestions Guys.

Two very important things to consider when buying air purifiers are:

1. Medical grade HEPA filters (along with a pre filter as HEPA filters tend to get choked easily) and

2. Less ozone emission (although ozone may be used for removing smells but inhaling ozone is pretty harmful over a long period of time)

If you want odor control also then the model should have activated carbon filter.

Just inquire with the sales people before buying.

Go for plants !
An Air-Puifier wont generate oxygen...like the plants. Besides the plants also add visual appeal to your home !

^^Put them under light, don't let those little buggers emit CO2.

AFAIK plants breath out CO2 all the time, during the day they absorb more then they breath out. If you are worried about CO2 then you can try using desert cacti or something because they don't emit that much CO2 at nite too
