Honeywell Air Cleaner

Here’s an interesting statistic; The EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) has reported that the air inside your home or place of work can be 2 to 5 times more polluted than the air outside. If the quality of the air inside your home is a concern then it is time to consider the advantages of a Honeywell air cleaner.

The question you will need to answer is what type or system of air purifier is best for your situation. A single room air cleaner is good if you only need to filter the air in one specific location. If on the other hand air cleanliness through out your home is important then a whole house air purifier is a good choice.

A Honeywell whole house air purifier works by connecting into your household air-duct system. As return air is sucked back into your HVAC system it passes through whatever series of filters you have had installed, cleaning the air. And this is where you need to ask yourself just what level of air filtration you require because there are a few choices you will have to make.

As far as pure filtration goes you have a choice between HEPA (High Efficiency Particulate Arresting) filter or an Electrostatic Filter. Both of these types of filters are highly efficient with a HEPA filter trapping over 99% of airborne particles and an electronic air cleaner removing up to 98% of particulate matter.

If you want to add another layer of air purification by zapping airborne bacteria, germs, and viruses then an Ultraviolet (UV) air treatment system can be added to augment the filtering power of the two previously listed filtration systems.

While whole house systems are a great way to filter and clean the air throughout your home you can also buy single room air purifiers that use the same technology. These room specific air cleaners can be particularly helpful for those who have severe allergies or asthma in that they are portable and can be easily transported to wherever they may be needed.

Deciding which Honeywell air cleaner will work best for you will take a little time and research but once you have made a sound decision know that you are getting on of the best air filtering systems on the market today.
