How to choose an air purifier in a home with pets

　　Knowing what pollutants small pets are likely to produce, let’s talk about how to choose an air purifier in a home with animals. The key is to consider the following 4 aspects, and customers can make choices according to the specific conditions of their own animals.

　　1) The direction of the air in and out of the air purifier The air purifier should be able to immediately capture the plush that pets scatter in the air or the hair on the road around the air purifier. From the perspective of the air inlet and outlet of the air purifier, it is not a good choice to supply the air to the front air outlet. Because the front air blows the road, it will blow the pollutants (dust, hair, etc.) on the road, which is very easy to be caught. Others inhale. I propose to apply an air purifier with an air inlet directly below and an upper and lower air inlet (tens of centimeters higher than the road surface) and an upper air inlet, because the air inlet directly below and closer to the road can suck in large fine particles or Hair, the higher air inlet can suck in the pollutants floating in the air, and the wind can ensure that the clean air is immediately delivered to the person's inhalation position.

　　2) External filter or pre-filter The air purifier should have a pre-filter that is conducive to collecting hair. This filter is mainly used to collect hair and large fine particles, has a large dust holding capacity, and is also conducive to removal (best is to wash with water). If there is no such layer of net (similar to the filter used in the indoor unit of the air conditioner), this kind of hair or large fine particles will be adsorbed on the main filter device (filter screen), and the equipment will be turned off, because there is no adsorption force, pollutants It is very easy to get rid of the filter and fall into the air again; in addition, such large-sized fine particles or hair will increase the pressure on the HEPA filter and reduce its service life.

　　3) The filtration efficiency of air purifiers for PM2.5 is because small pets are very easy to carry and cause germs as small as 0.1 microns. The filtration efficiency of general air purifiers for such extremely inhalable particles is very low, while high efficiency Air purifiers, namely H12 or H13 grade air purifiers, can remove 99.5% (H12) or 99.97% (H13) of fine particles as small as 0.3 μm (germ level) at one time, thereby reducing inhalable particles such as germs vacated time and total amount to protect health.

　　4) The working ability of air purifier to solve odor For the odor or odor caused by small pets, in addition to ventilation, it is also a very good choice to apply an air purifier with strong deodorization ability. Air purifier manufacturers, practical experience, activated carbon can absorb a variety of odors and harmful substances. When choosing an air purifier for deodorization, there are two key aspects to investigate: A) The high efficiency of removing vapor pollutants is due to the air purifier. The national standards have not included ammonia, etc. (odor caused by small pets) in the test report. I suggest that customers refer to the high efficiency of indoor formaldehyde removal; B) How many filters contain activated carbon or other deodorizing raw materials Generally speaking, for the same activated carbon, the larger the carbon charge of the filter, that is, the more activated carbon components, the longer its service life. The former index value indicates the rate of odor removal, and the latter index value indicates the lifespan of the filter.
