Do I need an air cleaner or an air purifier?
While both air cleaners and air purifiers remove impurities from the air, the level of removal is different. Air cleaners filter the air to remove primarily smoke, smells, and larger particles. Air purifiers sanitize the air by removing smoke, smells, and fine particles like viruses, pet dander, pollen, dust, dust mites, and biological contaminants.
Several factors determine whether an air cleaner or air purifier is best for your Colorado home.
Air Cleaner
- Noise and Cost
Requiring a fan can be noisy and expensive due to filters that must be replaced.
- Room Size
Whole-house solutions that can be installed directly into the HVAC system.
- Pollutants Addressed
Remove smoke, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), mold spores, and similar gases. - Treatment Technology
Require HEPA filters for small particles, active carbon filters to capture smoke and VOCs, and UV sanitizers to filter out spores.
Air Purifier
- Noise and Cost
Operates almost in silence; some use filters, others use UV light, and some use both - Room Size
Whole-house solutions that can be installed directly into the HVAC system - Pollutants Addressed
Viruses that make people sick, pathogens that trigger allergies, and mold spores. - Treatment Technology
Combined UV light and ionic or electrostatic filters to trap particles, pathogens, and gases
