A breath of fresh air

-

Did you just step inside your house and think, ‘Finally! I’m breathing clean air now’? Unfortunat­ely, you might be wrong. Even indoor air contains pollutants and disease-causing microorgan­isms. Given this scenario, more and more people are opting for air purifiers to rid the air of fine dust, chemicals and high concentrat­e particulat­e matter (PM).

MAKING THE RIGHT CHOICE

Markets are flooded with air purifiers, but selecting the one that matches your needs is important. Moonbow air purifiers, which were launched by the house of HSIL Limited last year, are available in five variants, “As pollution levels rise at an alarming pace, the quality of breathable air is rapidly degrading. Air purifiers have become a necessity and our purifiers control pollutants to keep indoor spaces well ventilated. Powered by Puri 5 technology, a 5-stage purificati­on process comprising of pre filter, true HEPA filter, activated carbon filter, UV light and refreshing energizer, our purifiers capture indoor carcinogen­ic and ultra-fine particles,”” says Rakesh KaulKaul, president and chief, consumer business, HSIL Limited.

UTILITY AND FEATURES

Air is pulled into the unit, and is passed through five filtration devices. Following this, purified air is released back into the room. As a result, airborne pollutants like dust, smoke, pollen, pet dander, mold and mildew spores, bacteria and viruses and other particulat­es as small as 0.3 microns are removed removed.

HOW HEPA WORKS

The air purifiers are powered by True HEPA filters that remove microscopi­c particles from air. They can remove as much as 99.97% of particles that are bigger than 0.3 microns. Further, to capture gases and odours, activated charcoal filter is used in conjunctio­n.

PRICE, POWER, PURIFICATI­ON

These purifiers start at 6,990 for a car purifier to 12,990 for home air purifier. The home range extends to 36,990. These variants consume less electricit­y, ranging 50W to 70W. Not only do they use less power, but the range is aimed to cater to different-sized rooms too.
