The Advantages of a Larger Air Cleaner

More Effective Purification

• While most air cleaners are effective at filtering dust out of the air, dust is just one of many impurities that can be found in indoor air. Others include viruses, bacteria, mold spores, and trace amounts of toxic gases. Larger air cleaners can use bigger and more varied filter materials, including carbon, potassium permanganate, alumina, zeolite, and potassium iodide, which trap and eliminate a wider range of impurities and pollutants.

Increased Filter Capacities

• The larger your air cleaner, the bigger its filter will be and the greater the volume of impurities it can trap and eliminate in a single usage. Smaller air cleaners with diminutive filters need regular cleaning to perform effectively; larger air cleaners need less care and maintenance, helping them perform at higher levels for longer periods of time.

Powerful Fans and Motors

• With bigger and more powerful fans and motors, larger air cleaners are able to remove impurities more quickly and effectively than smaller models. While you can use them in rooms of any size, they're particularly useful in large rooms and rooms with high ceilings. Unusually large spaces, such as open-concept offices, should have multiple air purifiers placed at strategic points throughout the room to ensure the purity of the air throughout the space.

Cost Effectiveness

• While larger and more powerful air cleaners cost more than smaller ones, it's important to consider their additional filtering capabilities in addition to the price tag. In many cases, you get more bang for your buck by spending the extra money on a bigger, stronger model made by a reputable company, as it will clean your air more effectively, last longer, and need fewer repairs over the course of its life.
