How to Clean a Honeywell Air Purifier

A Honeywell air purifier is a helpful appliance that makes indoor living more comfortable and healthy. Though it is a cleaning appliance, over time the air purifier can get dirty, with all manner of particles from the air getting caught in its vents and casing. This buildup can impede the air purifier's effectiveness and make it a dust and bacterial trap. Cleaning your air purifier can be completed in less than an hour with readily available household items. This is a maintenance task that should be done at least once a year.

  With the filters removed, vacuum out the interior of the purifier unit thoroughly with the brush and crevice attachments. Pay special attention to the intake and outflow vents where significant debris can get lodged. Wipe down the interior with a slightly dampened rag sprayed with surface cleaner or a premoistened wipe to pick up any remaining dust and debris and to disinfect the interior surface.
