Smart Ways to Maximize Your Air Purifier

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) says there can be up to five times more airborne pollutants indoors than outdoors. Investing in a quality air purifier is one way to keep the air you breathe at home as clean as possible. This equipment can eliminate different contaminants that can harm your family’s health.

A trusted air conditioning installation company shares ways to make the most of your air purifier. 

Choose the Right Location

You want to place your air purifier in a central location and on a flat surface like the floor or a table. Keep the top and four sides of your equipment from obstructions. Also, don’t put it against the wall or in a location where it’s too hot or cold. 

Replace Filters Regularly

Dirt, dust and other pollutants can build up on the filters of your air purifier over time. Regular filter cleaning or replacement is necessary to keep your equipment efficient. The type of filter you have typically determines how often you need to replace it. If you’re unsure when to replace air filters, consult an experienced air conditioning maintenance technician. 

Keep Your Air Purifier Running

Leaving your air purifier on can go a long way in improving your indoor air quality. It will especially benefit your loved ones with allergies or asthma. Many modern air purifiers are energy-efficient. It means they won’t significantly increase your utility bills.

Close Windows and Doors

Like your AC, your air purifier won’t function well if your windows and doors are open. Your equipment will perform better if you reduce the outdoor air contaminants that enter your living space. Address drafty or leaky windows and doors to keep conditioned and purifier air from escaping.
