Air Purifier For Baby---5 Features That Won't Work

By:


An effective air purifier in your baby's room can get your infant off to a really healthy start. Here are 5 features that should be avoided if the cleaner is to be effective.

Harmful By-Product---The only by product for any purifier should be fresh air. Those cleaners that produce any amount of ozone should be avoided. Studies have found that in order for them to be effective the amount of ozone would have to reach deadly levels.

Ionizing units depend on charging particles and attracting them to a steel plate inside the unit. The problem is that the steel plate does not always capture all of them, and charged particles are more likely to stick to lining inside the lungs. Steer clear of purifiers that use ozone or ionization..

Limited Operation---The pollutants in your baby's room won't take a break and the cleaner you choose shouldn't have to take one either. Look in the technical specifications to confirm that the unit can run 24 hours a day. That is the level of filtration that is necessary to keep the in the nursery fresh, and clean.

A split capacitor motor is the type of motor necessary to allow the unit to operate safely and effectively 24 hours a day every day whether you are home or away. Continuous cleaning is the only way to assure that your baby's air is always healthy.

One Filtration Speed---With a baby things happen fast, and often without warning. You need a unit that can respond quickly and efficiently. Being able to filter out pollutants at varying speeds is an advantage you don't want to be without..

A range of at least 3 speeds on your cleaner will allow it to keep up and eliminate pollutants as they happen. And when life calms down again you can adjust the filtration speed to match.

One or No Filter---The more filters a cleaner has the better able it is to eliminate particles without constant replacement filters being necessary. Units with one or no filter almost always mean a lot of maintenance with washing, spraying cleaning or vacuuming the filter. And even with all the extra work, the filter life is generally only 3 to 6 months.

Frequent filter replacement adds to the cost to run the machine, and time spent replacing the filter is time that the air is not being cleaned.

A better choice is a purifier with multiple sized filters that are able to eliminate a wide range of particles varying from those you can see to those that are microscopic. Lingering paint smells, wallpaper glue, carpet smells can all wreak havoc with baby's newly developing respiratory system. Make sure the cleaner you choose can eliminate gaseous pollutants too..

Avoid Unattractive---You nursery is probably gorgeous. Just because you want clean air shouldn't mean you have to have an ugly purifier.

You shouldn't have to sacrifice appearance for a cleaner that works well. Instead opt for a cleaner that comes in lots of pretty colors. This gives you the most options.. The right cleaner will be able to stay with your child for a long, long time.
