HEPA filters come in various grades, with higher grades indicating greater efficiency. Most air purifiers on the market use "True HEPA" filters, which are typically graded H10 to H12 and trap about 85-99.5% of particulate matter (PM). However, some purifiers feature HEPA 13 or 14 filters, which are medical-grade and remove up to 99.95% and 99.995% of PM, respectively. These high-grade HEPA filters are especially effective at ensuring cleaner and healthier air.

Activated Carbon filters efficiently eliminate strong odors and harmful gases (VOCs) from your home air through a process called adsorption, where pollutants adhere to the surface of carbon molecules. However, it's important to note that these filters are unable to remove particulate matter (PM). For comprehensive air purification, consider using activated carbon filters in combination with other filtration technologies.

While HEPA and activated carbon dominate the air purifier market, UV-C technology offers a distinct advantage with its ability to sanitize air by killing viruses.  When exposed to UV-C light at a specific wavelength, the genetic material of these microorganisms absorbs the UV-C radiation, which damages their structure and prevents them from replicating. This feature is particularly appealing in today's health-conscious environment. One key concern with UV-C technology is the emission of ozone, a harmful gas that can compromise indoor air quality and pose health risks, thus it is important to make sure the UV-C lamp is ozone-free.

Anion release, also known as vital ion technology or "plasma technology," involves the emission of negative ions into the air. These negative ions have a beneficial effect as they attach to airborne pollutants, causing them to become heavier and settle out of the air. While this process effectively removes pollutants from the air you breathe, the drawback is that the particles now accumulate on surfaces throughout your home rather than remaining airborne. However, this is still preferable to inhaling the pollutants, as they can be easily cleaned from surfaces.

Photocatalysis represents a cutting-edge advancement in air purification technology, harnessing light energy to neutralize harmful pollutants, particularly gases like volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Utilizing titanium dioxide, this process transforms pollutants into neutral, harmless substances. While relatively rare in commercial air purifiers, photocatalysis offers exceptional effectiveness in cleaning your indoor air, making it a valuable consideration for those seeking advanced air purification solutions.

Nano Copper filtration stands out as an exceptional yet rare technology for air purification. Copper ions within this filter effectively combat odors and boast a remarkable ability to eliminate 99.9% of bacteria and fungi. Importantly, these filters pose no harmful effects on individuals or the environment. If your priority is to rid your indoor environment of bacteria, incorporating a Nano Copper filter into your air purifier is essential.

Meet your ultimate defense against viruses: the Nano Silver filter! This groundbreaking technology utilizes silver ions to dismantle the protein structure and RNA of viruses, including coronaviruses, effectively neutralizing them. Proven to eliminate up to 82% of viruses in a mere 10 minutes, the Nano Silver filter is your secret weapon for achieving a clean, germ-free home.
