If you are looking to purify the air in your home or office, ionic air purifiers work by admitting a positive charge into a room. When this charge is emitted, particles in the air likewise become positively charged. When air travels through your ionic air purifier, allergens naturally gravitate and cling to the negatively-charged, metal collection plates inside the appliance. Most ionic air purifiers come with grounded plugs for safe in-home use. This unique air cleaner is remarkably energy-efficient and will save you many energy dollars. You have the choice between low, medium, and high power levels to address your room size and allergen content.
Ionic air purifiers work well in rooms of any size, but work best in rooms up to 500 ft. in size. Many models will have an LED display to indicate the selected power level. Most models also have a light to indicate when the purifier needs cleaning.
Some models of ionic air purifiers require the purchase of replacement filters and some don't. Most users of an ionic air purifier usually clean it by gently wiping the collection plates with a cloth according to the cleaning directions provided in the user's manual. It is recommended that you clean the unit every four to five days, especially if you live in a smoker household. Remember to always turn off the purifier and unplug it prior to cleaning. Ionic air purifiers should be located within 12 inches of the outlet.
