Electronic air cleaners are incredibly effective at eliminating various pollutants in the air. This results in a healthier overall atmosphere in your home for you and your family.
Air filtration systems are measured by a standard called the Minimum Efficiency Reporting Value or MERV. The higher the rating, the more effective their ability to capture various particles such as dust, pollen, fungi, bacteria and dander. For example, a regular fiberglass filter might have a MERV rating of 2. Electronic air cleaners, on the other hand, have ratings as high as 16, the level that hospitals require in their air-filtration systems to prevent outbreaks of contagious diseases.
Electronic air cleaners can capture or deactivate as much as 99 percent of particles in the air. They can catch particles that are less than a single micron in size. This can help reduce allergy irritation that causes discomfort for your eyes and throat.
Electronic air filters also often come equipped with a carbon filter. This helps eliminate odors in your house. Another advantage of this type of filtration is that the filter itself is incredibly easy to replace. It only takes a minute and the units have indicators to help remind you when you should change out your filter.
