Almost every day, from advertising or the Internet, we hear about the emergence of a new “miracle” in the friendly family of climate control technology. The common man is confused by the abundance of functions, various bells and whistles, and names. And every time it’s the same: It’s ours, the best, the most useful, etc. But are they really that useful, or are they all advertising steps with which unscrupulous sellers are trying to extract as much money from us as possible? This is what we will try to figure out with you in this article.

The choice of an air purifier depends on several main points: purpose and quality of cleaning, performance and noise level, cost, and, oddly enough, design. It is by these criteria that we will evaluate some of the most popular versions of air purifiers from major manufacturers.

You can also pay attention to climate control systems that already have cleaning and humidification functions. .

Aerotek cleaner

• The Aerotek AVP-300 air purifier is a modern budget model that combines all the elements of expensive air purifiers from the premium segment, capable of serving rooms up to 41 m2. This is a reliable and very easy-to-use unit, which has 6 stages of cleaning and the function of forced activation of air ionization. 6-stage cleaning creates a comfortable atmosphere, has an antibacterial and antifungal effect, eliminates tobacco smoke and harmful impurities, as well as dust and allergens. The maximum productivity of the unit is 300 m3/h and “turbo mode” will allow you to clean your room in a matter of minutes, and thanks to the cleaning and filter change indicators, you will always know when you need to service your device.

  Our opinion: Being lightweight, the Aerotek AVP-300 air purifier can be easily moved to a new location, and thanks to the low noise level of 23 dB and the “comfortable sleep mode”, this unit can even be placed in a room with a baby.

  Panasonic purifiers

  

  Our opinion: a good unit for a city apartment, asthmatics and families with small children. But, this device is equipped with a “bunch” of additional functions that greatly affect its price.

  

  Our opinion: Air purifier, ionizer, and humidifier in one package, bought and forgot about it. But it cannot be called affordable, since the average retail price is around 30 thousand rubles.

  

  Results:
  Panasonic F-PJD35 is the best option for use in city apartments. The excellent filtration system makes it indispensable in apartments where small children and people suffering from allergies, asthma and various diseases of the respiratory system live.

  Phillips in the modern market

  

  Our opinion: The device has a not very good function integrated into it - automatic blocking of the air purifier when one of the filter elements is dirty. The cost of the device fluctuates around 11-12 thousand rubles.

  

  Our opinion: At maximum power, the Philips ac4086/01 air purifier began to produce a little more noise, so it should not be used in bedrooms. In addition to changes in functionality, its cost has also changed. Today it is from 19 to 20.5 thousand rubles.

  

  Results:
  All presented models are very similar to each other in their characteristics, and therefore Philips ac4086/01 is the most preferable for purchase due to the integrated humidifier.

  Venta cleaning systems

  

  Our opinion: The fact that it does not require filter replacement is very tempting. What’s especially nice is that the manufacturer’s warranty for this device is 10 years.

  

  Results:
  Venta LW-45 is a good device, equipped with basic functions, with a good warranty and minimal maintenance. Will help people with allergic reactions to dust and various mechanical contaminants.

  Brand Ballu

  

  Results:
  Ballu AR 420F7 is the most interesting model, but according to our observations, it is somewhat noisy and cumbersome.

  Bork climate control equipment

  Important!
  We were surprised that with such a low power and relatively low cost, this modification of the purifier includes so many functions. After contacting several buyers, we found out that the majority of those who bought this device were unhappy. This air purifier does not perform the stated functions!

  

  Results:
  According to customer reviews, all BORK air purifiers are quite noisy. If you do not pay attention to this, then in our choice, we vote for the Bork A 700 purifier model. In our opinion, this is an ideal ratio of price and quality.

Lately, many people have been thinking about the quality of food. Proper nutrition is becoming a cult. But they rarely think about air. Even less often are measures taken to improve the situation. Unpurified air contains harmful impurities, bacteria and various contaminants. An air purifier for an apartment with correctly selected power will improve the microclimate in any room. And if such a device exists, why not use it, thereby increasing the comfort and quality of life of the whole family.

Read in the article:

Why do you need an air purifier for an apartment?

The main tasks of the purifier:

• effective air purification from dust accumulations, constant use of the device significantly reduces dust accumulation;
• removing odors arising from cooking or using household chemicals during cleaning;
• removal of animal hair, flower fingers;
• neutralization of harmful microorganisms, mites and bacteria.

Running your air purifier regularly will help clean the air as much as possible. At the same time, allergic reactions and colds are minimized. A clean microclimate is very important in homes with small children or animals. The main thing is to choose the right device with the necessary programs and contents.

Air purifiers as a remedy for allergies

Allergies have recently become almost epidemiological in nature. Pollen, flowering, pet hair, dust, food - this is a small list of allergic manifestations. A runny nose, sneezing, coughing, and watery eyes plague many people several times a year.

Medicines will help relieve the acute condition. However, it is necessary to take measures to prevent the occurrence of an unpleasant disease. First of all, the allergen itself should be identified. As an additional measure, you need to secure your home. Clean air with a minimum content of impurities is one of the measures to prevent allergic manifestations.

Which air purifier will help cope with the task? What should you pay attention to when purchasing?

Allergens vary in size. When choosing an air purifier for allergy sufferers and asthmatics, you should pay attention to the filtration system.

Pet hair

One of the largest allergens (about 10 microns). It is visible to the naked eye. A regular filter will do for cleaning. Models with a pre-cleaning function with high air exchange are more effective. Due to the high speed of air purification, wool settles on the filters.

Air purifiers with a humidification system provide double the benefits. Moistened particles settle on the floor, thereby reducing the risk of inhalation.

pollen

Pollen ranks second among allergens. Particle sizes range from 0.3 to 10 microns. It can also be visualized without additional equipment. Dandruff, which is sometimes found in pets, has similar parameters. To purify the air from such manifestations, systems that, in addition to humidification, are supplemented with aerostatic filters are suitable. Cleaning efficiency – 95%.

Such air purifiers are produced without the need to replace parts. Air ionization has a beneficial effect on the immune system and improves the quality of life of all family members.

Dust

Dust allergen has the smallest dimensions from 0.3 to 0.1 microns. It is almost impossible to recognize with the naked eye. Even in the cleanest areas, after wet cleaning, micro particles remain that penetrate the respiratory system and settle in the lungs.

An air purifier for home dust with HEPA filters helps purify the air up to 99.9% of allergens up to 0.3 microns in size and up to 91% of particles with a size of 0.1 microns.

Dust mites

They are quite difficult to determine. To enhance the cleansing effect, you can choose a system with more power than the space required. Processes will happen much faster and, therefore, more productive.

Mechanical filters are powerless in the fight against dust mites. On the contrary, this is a favorable environment for them, once in which they actively reproduce. Ozonizers are the only device that will clean the air as much as possible from small allergens.

Polluted air is the cause of many diseases. And if we can’t do anything about it outside, then in the home, in the fight for a cozy microclimate, systems with cleaning and humidification functions will be good helpers.

Air purifiers consist of a set of filters, through which air masses are gradually purified. The built-in fan helps move the flow. The simplest designs consist of one filter, more complex ones - up to 5. The more filters, the more efficient the system works. It is advisable to have filters available:

• rough cleaning;
• trapping odors;
• fine cleaning.

A fine mesh fabric can act as a filter. The dense structure of the base is similar to HEPA filters. Fabric protection acts as a coarse filter.

Carbon filters are used to combat odors. Coal granules are placed in special cassettes. To increase the level of cleaning, the cassettes are impregnated with compounds with adsorbing properties.

The fine filter is the most important element of a modern air purifier. It traps the smallest elements. HEPA filters are an effective fine cleaning system. Besides:

• Some air purifiers are equipped with electrostatic filters. The electrostatic field attracts contaminated particles. Such a system only works in conjunction with fine filters;
• household purifiers can be supplemented with photocatalytic filters, the operating principle of which is based on the oxidation and decomposition of toxic elements;
• Another cleaning option is ultraviolet lamps. They additionally disinfect air flows using short-wave radiation.

Climate complexes

These are entire air purification systems. They are complemented by ionization and humidification modes. In industrial premises, Folter filters are used to clean the air from dust; they act as dust collectors in industrial complexes.

Important! Ionization and humidification systems should not operate continuously. The modes should be turned on periodically.

Main technical characteristics of air purifiers

Before choosing an air purifier for effective performance, you need to decide on the basic parameters.

• performance– the maximum volume of air masses passing through the system in 1 hour. For effective cleaning, it is necessary to completely pass through the volume 2-3 times during this time. Calculating the volume of a room is not difficult. Multiplying it by 2-3, you get the required productivity value;
• cleaning area– household models are capable of cleaning areas up to 90 sq.m. To effectively clean the entire apartment, devices should be installed in each room;
• power– efficiency is directly proportional to power. The best quality of work will be in closed rooms. During operation, doors and windows must be kept closed;
• noise. For a comfortable stay in a room with a working device, you should choose a purifier with the lowest noise levels. Manufacturers may indicate the noise level at minimum speed in the product data sheet. Comfortable values: during the daytime up to 40 dB, at night - up to 30 dB;

control. In products with a budget price, the control is displayed on the panel. These could be buttons or switches. As an addition – indicators.

More expensive devices are complemented by electronic controls, in which certain operating modes can be programmed. The display shows the main operating parameters of the air purifier.

Modern systems can be controlled remotely via a mobile application.

Types of cleaners and their operating principle

Air purifiers from different manufacturers may differ in performance. Air purification in the apartment occurs only according to the specified parameters. Therefore, it is necessary to decide what type of pollution the air purifier will have to deal with. In addition, you should know whether additional functions of humidification and air ionization are needed. And then select a system based on these parameters.

In any purifier, filters are the main working elements. By understanding how the filtration system works, you can choose an air purifier that meets all your requirements.

Electrostatic filters

Such filters operate on the principle of fine cleaning, effectively removing pollutants down to 0.01 microns in size. Air masses pass through a special purifier chamber, where an electrostatic field is created under voltage. The work is based on the principle of polarity. The contaminated elements become positively charged and are attracted to the negatively charged plates.

The main advantage of such a system is that there is no need to change contaminated elements. It is enough to wash them periodically with water. Long service life, effective cleaning and low cost make air purifiers with electrostatic filters quite popular.

Air ionizers for apartments

Gas ions are formed due to electrical charge. They stick to contaminated particles and charge them. A strong electrostatic field is created inside the air purifier, in which, according to the principle of polarity, negatively charged elements are attracted to the positively charged electrode.

Important! When operating an air purifier with ionic filters, no ozone should be generated.

Ionic filters cannot effectively purify the air. Their principle is based only on the physical effect of ionization of flows.

HEPA filters

Modern manufacturers produce filters with the designation TRUE; the degree of purification using new technologies increases to 99.97%.

Filters are replaceable or washable. An effective system has only one drawback - high cost. The quality of cleaning significantly improves the indoor microclimate, which is very important for allergy sufferers and families with small children.

Photocatalysts

Their principle is based on the breakdown of harmful elements into a safe chemical compound. The big advantage of such filters is that there is no negative impact on humans if the filter is dirty.

Ultraviolet radiation breaks down and kills complex harmful contaminants, microorganisms and gaseous substances up to 0.01 μm in size. This is the main difference from conventional filters, which simply trap and precipitate contaminants. The efficiency of photocatalysts is 500 times higher than conventional carbon systems. The degree of purification from contaminated substances reaches 99.99% and eliminates odors up to 85%.

Ozonizers

Household appliances with an additional ozonation function effectively eliminate odors, viruses and germs. Low cost combined with a high degree of purification makes the device quite popular.

Their principle is based on the release of ozone under the influence of high voltage. The gas penetrates into hard surface compounds that cannot be reached during normal cleaning. The structures of bacteria and viruses are damaged, causing death.

Ozone acts on gaseous states according to the principle of a chemical reaction, breaking down compounds into simple, harmless, odorless compounds. The ozonator is capable of completely disinfecting the air, which is very important during the period of epidemiological manifestations of colds.

Carbon filters

Carbon filters belong to fine cleaning systems. They absorb odors and harmful gases. They are used in conjunction with other filters, preferably coarse filters. The shape of the granules is important here. The fine structure can create high resistance to air flow. It is much easier for air to pass between a larger structure.

Air washing (hydrofiltration)

This is a combined system with the function of moisturizing and cleansing. The main advantage of the device is high productivity and up to 90% degree of purification. Disadvantages include noisy operation and high cost.

Cleaning occurs by passing air masses through a water barrier. Hydrofiltration is capable of retaining only particles whose size is above 1 micron; small elements will pass through the barrier and return to the room. Therefore, such a system is not suitable for people with allergies.

The purifier consists of a water tray, a drum with moisturizing discs, a fan with blades and special channels through which air flows are supplied and discharged. The container is filled with water to the mark. After turning on the fan, the air flows are drawn into the drum and moistened. The increased weight does not allow them to move further; they are glued to the body, then washed off with water into the tray. The purified streams exit into the room.

Humidifiers – air purifiers

The principle of operation for an apartment is based on the evaporation of moisture. They can be supplemented with filters made of moisture-absorbing material, such as multi-layer paper impregnated with antibacterial compounds. The drink receives moisture from a special container. Air masses are driven by a fan through filtration, humidified and returned to the room.

To increase operating efficiency, you can place it near heating devices or in places with good air circulation.

1. Ultrasonic devices break down moisture into the smallest state of water mist. Air saturation with such humidification is maximum. To prevent the formation of limescale, humidifiers are equipped with demineralizing cassettes. Distilled water is also suitable for these purposes. Such techniques will help prevent the formation of limescale on surfaces;
2. Steam humidifiers consist of two electrodes that are immersed in water and heat it. During the boiling process, water evaporates. These are the most powerful devices. Humidification efficiency reaches 90%. When heated, bacterial colonies die, and purified steam escapes into free space. The only disadvantage of such systems is the formation of scale when using hard water. This can be prevented by using special nozzles, which should be cleaned periodically. Steam humidifiers raise the temperature in the room.

Important! Steam systems should be used away from children and animals to avoid burns.

Modern climate control technology available to the average consumer is no longer limited to air conditioners alone. Increasingly, city residents are turning to more advanced technological means to create the most comfortable microclimate in their house or apartment. And one of the types of such devices is air purifiers, ionizers and so-called air washers. The latter most often combine several functions at once. Expertology specialists analyzed the current market for climate control devices and compiled a list of 15 models, dividing them into groups according to characteristics important to the consumer.

Which brand of air purifier should I choose?

To begin with, we will briefly orient you to what the brands themselves are, under which the air purifiers included in the rating are produced, and where the branded products are actually produced.

Panasonic is the most recognizable brand on our list. A giant Japanese corporation, famous for its electronics for decades. Climate control equipment, including air washers, is produced mostly in China.

Sharp is another famous Japanese company with a century-old history. Known for high-quality high-tech electronics and household appliances. Sharp's production facilities are scattered around the world, but specifically, air purifiers are manufactured in China.

REDMOND is also a very familiar brand to domestic consumers. This is an international brand (USA, Canada, Israel) of high-quality household appliances, mainly in the middle price segment. The head office is located in Israel, and production is established in China. Some of the equipment supplied to the Russian market is assembled in the CIS countries.

Timberk is a large international holding company that was born in Sweden. Now the central office is located in Israel. There are also branches in China, Finland and Russia. The group of companies has production bases in a number of countries around the world, including the Russian Federation.

Venta is a German brand owned by Venta-Luftwäscher GmbH, which was founded in 1981. Specializes strictly in air purification and humidification systems. The equipment is produced on the territory of Germany itself.

Winia is a rebranding product of the Mando Climate Control company, and even earlier Winia belonged to the famous Korean company Hyundai. All these transformations took place in 2000-2003, and since then very good climate control equipment has been produced under the Winia brand. Production is established in South Korea itself.

Leberg is a Norwegian company founded in 1963 and started with the production of ventilation systems. Subsequently, the company successfully expanded its product range by entering the global market. Now almost all products are manufactured in China.

Daikin is a Japanese brand owned by Daikin Industries Ltd. with almost a century of history. The company specializes in the production of industrial air conditioners, heating and ventilation systems. Production has been established, in addition to 5 factories in Japan itself, all over the world - Belgium, Czech Republic, Southeast Asia, Australia and the USA. Air washers are mostly assembled in China.

Boneco is a Swiss brand of humidifiers and air purifiers. The direct manufacturer is the Swiss company Plaston AG, which has been operating in the climate control market for more than 60 years. Production facilities are located in Switzerland, the Czech Republic, South Korea and China.

Foxcleaner is a Russian brand. Relatively little known, but quite worthy of attention for a number of reasons. Foxcleaner products are made in China.

AIC is a “guerrilla” brand that has long masqueraded as its Italian origin. In fact, only the place of registration is Italian, and all products are manufactured in China. Subsequently, it turned out that the roots of the Air Intelligent Comfort company were entirely Russian, which, given the massive phenomenon of pseudo-foreign brands, is not at all surprising. But AIC products are not the worst, and this is the main thing.

Best Inexpensive Air Purifiers

First of all, we will consider the most budget-friendly solutions that are suitable for those who do not need wide functionality and a loud brand and do not want to spend a significant amount. Our experts considered Foxcleaner Ion and Timberk TAP FL150 SF to be the optimal models that combine the minimum price and acceptable quality.

The Russian-made Foxcleaner Ion desktop air purifier is manufactured in China. This is a compact device measuring 175x220x150 mm and weighing 1.5 kg. Extremely economical - consumes only 10 W and is capable of serving a room of up to 20 square meters. meters.

In terms of cleaning capabilities, Foxcleaner Ion has four types of filters: HEPA filter, photocatalytic, electrostatic, carbon. In addition, an ultraviolet lamp is installed for disinfection - the air comes under its influence after passing through the filters. There is also an air ionizer.

The controls are touch-sensitive, and according to consumer reviews, they are very simple and accessible. True, there is a downside to this accessibility - children happily press all the buttons they can reach, and the Foxcleaner Ion is not equipped with a child lock feature.

The fan speed is adjustable - 2 modes. There is a 12-hour timer and a compact display. Opinions about the noise level of this model are divided - for the most part, consumers are satisfied with a noise of 40-45 dB, with rare exceptions.

Advantages

compact;

simple, understandable and accessible control;

presence of an ionizer;

Flaws

there is no protection against children; there are complaints about noise.

The Timberk TAP FL150 SF air purifier is manufactured in China. The air washer with dimensions of 176x647x224 mm and a weight of 4.27 kg implies floor installation. Powered by mains, consuming 60 W of electricity.

Air purification occurs by passing the flow through HEPA and photocatalytic filters. Harmful bacteria are killed by a UV lamp. Timberk TAP FL150 SF is capable of processing up to 238 cc. meters of air per hour. The fan rotation speed is adjustable.

In terms of ergonomics, this model is also quite up to par for its price category. There is a delayed shutdown timer with a “capacity” of as much as 24 hours. The control is electronic, modes are displayed on an LCD display with a nice backlight. There is an indication of filter contamination.

Most users note the real effectiveness of this model; allergy sufferers especially notice this. There is minimal complaint about noise, but no real serious complaints in this regard. The only problem is that the frequency of breakdowns after days, weeks or months of operation is clearly higher than the statistical error.

Advantages

effectively fights pollen and odors;

Convenient carrying handle.

Flaws

relatively frequent breakdowns;

a bit noisy

Best Air Washers with Water Filter (No Consumables)

Now let’s look at another type of climate control equipment – ​​purifiers/humidifiers with a water filter. This type of air purifier does not require the use of consumables, which are often very expensive in air washes. The following models caught the attention of our experts: Venta LW25, Winia AWM-40, Panasonic F-VXL40, Leberg LW-20 and AIC S135.

The German-made Venta LW25 air washer is produced in Venta-Luftwäscher GmbH's own factories in Germany. The dimensions of the device are 300x330x300 mm, and the weight is 3.8 kg.

This is a traditional type humidifier capable of serving rooms up to 40 square meters. meters. The volumetric water tank of 7 liters ensures sufficiently long operation without the need for refueling (a low water level indication function is present in this model).

The air purifier is controlled from an electronic panel. Three fan rotation modes are supported. At first speed the noise is practically not felt - only 25 dB. On the second and third it is already felt, but still does not exceed a fairly comfortable 42 dB.

Venta LW25 is perhaps the most controversial and described model in this category, and it’s not for nothing that we started with it. The fact is that there is simply a huge number of the most enthusiastic reviews about this model on the Internet, but there is also a significant percentage of completely opposite ones, which makes one doubt the objectivity of one or the other.

If we look dispassionately at the characteristics, we can say that consumer complaints regarding unjustified prices are indeed justified. Even if this is “payback” for the German assembly, it is still worth understanding that the Venta LW25 is an extremely simple device.

Advantages

low noise level (at first speed);

large water tank.

Flaws

poor functionality;

price discrepancy with real possibilities.

The Winia AWM-40 air washer is manufactured and assembled at the company’s “home” plant in South Korea. This alone has had a very positive impact on the overall level of independent reviews, in which buyers highly appreciate the quality of materials and workmanship.

The dimensions of the device are 315x390x310 mm, and the weight is 6 kg. The volume of the water tank is as much as 9 liters, which is also positively assessed by users. The air purifier is also quite economical in energy consumption - 11 W.

The way the evaporator works in this model is traditional. The fan speed is controlled via an electronic panel with LCD display. There are also functions to alert you when the filter is dirty and a built-in ionizer. The hygrostat relatively accurately (as far as possible for “elementary” hygrometers in air washes) determines humidity and maintains the optimal level.

What's a little disappointing about this model is the performance. It is significantly lower than that of the same Timberk TAP FL150 SF - about 150 cubic meters. meters of air per hour. In practice, this means that in the room being treated it is necessary to keep the windows tightly closed, otherwise the humidifying effect drops sharply. Also, some users do not like the inability to turn off the ionizer.

Another point is that buyers in large numbers are faced with the fact that it is very difficult to find a replacement filter on sale. But Winia AWM-40 copes with its functions quite well without it due to the water filter.

Advantages

very spacious water tank;

hygrostat;

quiet operation;

high-quality assembly;

attractive design;

Flaws

shortage of replacement BSS filters on sale.

The ionizer does not turn off;

weak effect when the window or door is open.

The Panasonic F-VXL40 climate control system is produced in Japan itself. This is the only Panasonic air washer model that can boast Japanese assembly. Buyers are unanimous in their appreciation of the stylish design of the air purifier, but this is far from its main advantage.

The dimensions of the air washer are 330x590x250 mm and the weight is 7.2 kg. It consumes 52 W, which is quite a bit, considering the decent functionality. The recommended area of ​​the serviced premises is 30 square meters. meters.

The air purifier is equipped with a precise hygrostat and an air purity sensor. Cleaning is carried out using a HEPA filter and a water filter. The fan speed is adjustable, but only two speeds are available, and users note this as a small minus (“medium speed is requested”). At the first speed, the operation of the device is almost inaudible, but at the second, the washer produces noticeable noise, not always fitting into the 49 dB declared by the manufacturer.

As for the humidification function, most users speak very respectfully about it. The effect is really felt and confirmed by measurements. The only thing is that it is not entirely clear what the developers were guided by when they designed a very limited - 1.6 l - water tank. With a nominal capacity of 240 cc. meters per hour, water consumption is 350 ml/h. This means that water must be added at least every 4.5 hours. But, again, this does not affect the direct functions of air washing - the quality of cleaning and humidification is not satisfactory.

Advantages

unconditional effectiveness;

Beautiful design;

security automation;

Flaws

there is a hum and vibration;

“average” speed is not enough;

The air purifier of the Swedish brand Leberg LW-20 is manufactured in China. This is a case where a generally good air purifier receives negative reviews due to its less than stellar build quality.

Air purifier dimensions - 330x435x300 mm, weight - 5.7 kg. Equipped with a 6.2 liter water tank. Quite economical - consumes only 15 W. The manufacturer claims a service area of ​​28 square meters. m, but independent reviews say that the actual area this model can handle is a third less. The declared noise level is very low - 25 dB, and users confirm this in large numbers.

The fan rotation speed is controlled from the electronic panel. Modes and other data are shown on the display.

The main problem that users face is the inaccurate operation of the water flow sensor. Due to false alarms, the device often turns off when the tank is full. The hygrometer readings are also inaccurate, which makes maintaining a certain level of humidity erroneous.

Advantages

low power consumption;

relatively affordable price;

quiet operation;

attractive design;

Flaws

frequent breakdowns;

not the best quality build;

inaccurate operation of sensors;

The AIC S135 air purifier and humidifier is manufactured in China. This model stands out for its original design, which causes mixed reviews, but is generally positive. There are also some complaints about bulkiness, but objectively this model is not fundamentally different in size from equivalent solutions.

The dimensions of the device are 37.4x30.6x32.5 cm and weight is 3.4 kg. The volume of the water tank is 3.5 l, which is quite enough with a water consumption of 250 ml/h. AIC S135 is capable of serving a room of up to 30 square meters. meters, consuming up to 22 W.

The air purifier supports two fan speeds, which are mechanically controlled. The volume of operation in these two modes is polar: 20 dB in the first (and this is good) and 50 dB in the second (and this is bad).

We emphasize that the price of the AIC S135, indicated in both advantages and disadvantages, is not a contradiction. This is a reflection of the opinion of the mass of users who, in general, note that the device is inexpensive, but its functionality is so limited that even this price seems overpriced to many in the context of this particular air purifier.

Advantages

affordable price;

silent in the first mode;

original design;

Flaws

unjustified price;

noisy in the second mode;

unpleasant odor after inactivity;

Best air purifiers with multi-stage filtration

Now let's look at air purifier models that involve several stages of air flow filtration. Expertology experts identified five models from a variety of options: AIC KJF-20B06, Timberk TAP FL800 MF, Daikin MC70LVM, AIC XJ-3800A1 and REDMOND RAC-3704.

The air purifier of the pseudo-Italian (actually Russian) brand AIC KJF-20B06 is manufactured in China. Its dimensions are 360x500x180 mm and its weight is 6 kg.

Nominally, this air purifier should serve a room of 40 square meters. meters, consuming up to 50 W. In fact, user reviews are almost polar – there are quite a lot of complaints that the device does not cope with its functions to the fullest.

Air purification occurs by passing the flow through a set of filters: pre-filter, HEPA filter, photocatalytic, carbon. Some consumers are suspicious of the thickness of the filter package - only 1.5 cm, they say this is too small. In addition, the air exchange capacity of this model is 200 cubic meters per hour, which is quite a bit.

There is a built-in UV lamp and an ionizer, the functionality of which some users also doubt for various reasons.

The air purifier is controlled electronically, there is a display, a shutdown timer and, perhaps most importantly, a remote control.

Advantages

easy to use;

remote control.

Flaws

smell of plastic when first turned on;

noisy even in night mode;

shortage of filters;

The Timberk TAP FL800 MF air purifier is manufactured in China, but probably under the strict control of the company's headquarters, or at its own production facilities in the Middle Kingdom, since this model deserves praise in terms of quality.

The air washer has dimensions of 362x830x231 mm and weighs as much as 14.5 kg - many times more than any of the models listed above. But such weight is fully justified by useful functions and high-quality, reliable materials.

The productivity of Timberk TAP FL800 MF is 410 cubic meters per hour, which is more than twice the performance of the previous version (AIC KJF-20B06). Users are practically unanimous that the cleaner honestly fulfills the characteristics declared by the manufacturer. Energy consumption is quite acceptable - 56 W.

Cleaning levels include pre-filters, photocatalytic, electrostatic, and carbon. They are complemented by an ultraviolet lamp for disinfection. There is a filter contamination indicator and an air purity sensor.

The functionality is also enriched with a shutdown timer of up to 9 hours in 1 hour increments, electronic control and display. The fan rotation speed is adjustable.

Advantages

high performance;

simple controls;

multifunctional;

Flaws

high price;

no remote control.

The Japanese air purifier Daikin MC70LVM is assembled at Daikin's own plant in China. The quality of materials and workmanship is very good, which is confirmed by most users. The dimensions of the device are 403x576x241 mm, and the weight is 8.5 kg.

The air purifier is quite powerful - the performance is even higher than that of the Timberk TAP FL800 MF - 420 cubic meters per hour. The maximum power consumption is 65 W, and in economy mode it is reduced to 7 W. Depending on the mode, the noise level of this model can range from 16 to 28 dB.

There are also many positive reviews regarding the clarity and accuracy of the response of dust and odor sensors, which trigger the purifier or increase the intensity of its operation to quickly get rid of contaminants. The cleaning itself is provided by a pre-cleaning filter, photocatalytic, electrostatic.

The functionality of the Daikin MC70LVM is complemented by a built-in powerful ionizer, delayed shutdown timer, remote control and child lock.

Advantages

high-quality assembly;

high performance;

protection from children;

remote control;

precision sensors and automation;

solid design;

Flaws

high price;

specific odor from the deodorizing filter.

The AIC XJ-3800A1 air purifier of the Russian brand is manufactured in China at local factories under a contract system. What distinguishes this air purifier from all those discussed above is its fairly high power consumption - up to 80 W. Productivity is decent, but far from exceptional - 360 cubic meters per hour. The dimensions of the device are 343x610x255 mm, and the weight is 6.85 kg.

The manufacturer stated that the device is capable of serving a room of up to 60 square meters. m. Real reviews indicate that the AIC XJ-3800A1 falls significantly short of effectively treating the air in such a room.

The air purifier is equipped with air purity sensors and turns on or increases power automatically when contamination is detected. Cleaning is carried out through three filters: HEPA filter, photocatalytic, carbon. An ionizer and a UV disinfection lamp complete the cleaning. The purifier works quite quietly and begins to make noise only at maximum speed - up to 52 dB.

The functionality is quite up to par: fan speed adjustment, display, electronic control, remote control.

Advantages

remote control;

simple controls;

quiet operation at 1 and 2 speeds;

Flaws

high price for such a device;

low quality of materials and workmanship;

noise and vibration;

“medical” smell in the first days of operation;

The REDMOND RAC-3704 air purifier is made in China, but is well-built and of good quality materials, like almost all other products of this brand.

In terms of declared performance and power consumption (365 cubic meters per hour and 76 W, respectively), this model is almost similar to the AIC XJ-3800A1, but if we compare reviews from real users, REDMOND shows a much more distinct effect. The dimensions and proportions of the model, by the way, are also closely comparable to the AIC XJ-3800A1 - 345x610x215 mm. Capable of serving premises up to 46 square meters. meters.

Air purification is provided by a HEPA filter of class H10, as well as carbon and photocatalytic filters. The bactericidal effect is provided by a UV lamp. There is also a built-in quite powerful ionizer and an air purity sensor that controls the automation.

REDMOND RAC-3704 allows adjustment of the fan speed, and in lower modes the operating noise is minimal. The purifier begins to “sound” noticeably (up to 65 dB) only at maximum mode.

The air purifier is controlled electronically, including via a remote control; modes are displayed on a compact display.

Advantages

high-quality assembly;

low noise level at lower modes;

remote control;

quick noticeable effect;

Flaws

bulky;

useless filter replacement indicators;

expensive consumables;

The best multifunctional climate devices for air purification, humidification and ionization

And to conclude the review, we will look at multifunctional all-in-one climate control systems that clean the air from particles and odors, increase and maintain humidity, and saturate it with charged ions. Expertology experts considered the Sharp KC-D51RW, Panasonic F-VXH50 and Boneco W2055DR models worthy of attention.

The Sharp KC-D51RW multifunctional air purifier is made in China, but in this case it is only “geography”, and the quality of the device fully corresponds to the impeccable reputation of this Japanese technology giant.

The dimensions of the air purifier are 399x615x230 mm, and the weight is 9.2 kg. Designed to serve premises up to 38 square meters. meters. The performance is calculated very accurately in relation to the estimated volume of the room - 306 cubic meters per hour. Observations from the most meticulous users confirm the full compliance of real work with the declared indicators.

As for the humidification system, users are slightly dissatisfied with the small volume of the water tank - 2.5 liters. With a nominal flow rate of 600 ml/h, it has to be refilled quite often.

Air purification is provided by carbon and HEPA filters, which require vanishingly rare replacement - once every 10 years. Built-in powerful ionizer with ion rain function. The hygrostat is equipped with a digital hygrometer with an accuracy of -+1% and, in combination with air purity sensors, ensures “smart” operation of the automation

The Japanese air purifier Panasonic F-VXH50 is manufactured in China. This is a multifunctional device capable of serving a room of up to 40 square meters. meters with an electricity consumption of 43 W. Unit dimensions - 360x560x230 mm, weight - 8.3 kg.

The humidification system consumes up to 500 ml/h of water per hour, and if a serious increase in humidity is expected, the tank volume of 2.3 liters is insufficient for some users.

Air purification is provided by pre-cleaning, air, humidifying and deodorizing filters. The manufacturer claims an impressive durability of the filters - 10 years, but in fact, most users claim that after just a year or two of operation without replacing the filters, the efficiency drops significantly and extraneous unpleasant odors appear. The replacement filters themselves are quite expensive.

Ergonomics in this model are represented by intuitive electronic controls, the ability to adjust the fan speed, and the presence of a lock to block access for children. The disadvantage of the model is that it does not provide remote control.

At minimum modes, the operation of the device is practically inaudible - 18-20 dB. At maximum mode, noticeable noise of about 50 dB already appears.

Advantages

tangible effect;

quiet operation (not at maximum);

stylish design;

child lock;

Flaws

no remote control;

small water tank;

expensive consumables;

the durability of the filters does not correspond to the declared ones;

The climate complex of the Swiss brand Boneco W2055DR is produced in the Czech Republic. This is a rather unique unit, primarily due to its proportions and size - 360x360x360 mm. Many users consider such parameters to be cumbersome, given that it cannot be placed close to the wall or furnishings. Device weight - 5.9 kg.

The declared service area is 50 sq. meters with a power consumption of only 20 W. This efficiency is questionable, and buyers confirm that the stated performance of 300 ml/h is clearly not true. The volume of the water tank is acceptable - 7 liters.

Air purification is carried out by interacting the air flow with a set of disks that rotate in contact with water. No consumables are needed for this model, but the flip side of this convenience is the extremely inconvenient and time-consuming cleaning that is required every week.

As for ionization, in the Boneco W2055DR this function does not mean at all what users expect - just a single ionizing silver rod ISS, which is only capable of a bactericidal effect (prevents water from spoiling during long periods of inactivity), and the generation of charged ions itself is very weak .

The air purifier operates quite quietly only at the minimum mode - 25 dB, which users also rate as a drawback.

The automation in this air purifier is controlled by a hygrostat, indicators of low water level, and filter contamination. But the hygrostat, according to customer reviews, is not accurate enough.

An advantage of the Boneco W2055DR is the presence of a simple but pleasant air aromatization function.

Advantages

high-quality European assembly;

flavoring function;


no consumables needed;

Flaws

bulky;

unjustified price;

extremely inconvenient to care for;

questionable ionizer;

Which air purifier to buy

Now let’s summarize and orient you which cleaner in each group is best suited in a particular context.

With budget air purifiers everything is more or less obvious. If the room is small and you are limited in free space, the desktop Foxcleaner Ion would be the best option. Otherwise, it makes sense to take Timberk TAP FL150 SF, since these models are identical in price.

Of the air washers with a water filter, the absolute favorite is the Panasonic F-VXL40, but it is also the most expensive of the group. If you have an extremely limited budget for purchasing an air washer, the AIC S135 is suitable, but you will need to come to terms with the listed disadvantages. The Leberg LW-20 is quite good and inexpensive, but judging by the reviews, this model breaks down suspiciously often. Venta LW25 and Winia AWM-40 are almost equally priced “mid-range” models, only Winia will be clearly more functional. The presence of, albeit isolated, sharply negative reviews on the Venta LW25 should at least orient the buyer to scrupulously check the clarity of the warranty.

Among air purifiers with multi-stage filtration, the best solution in all respects can confidently be considered the Japanese Daikin MC70LVM, but it is several times more expensive than neighboring solutions. Also a pretty good option is REDMOND RAC-3704 and its shortcomings are not so critical. Both options from AIC are suitable only in case of austerity. Even if your budget is limited, it’s better to stretch yourself and take at least the Timberk TAP FL800 MF.

Finally, among the MFPs for air purification, without a doubt, the best model described is the Sharp KC-D51RW. Even the second Japanese - Panasonic F-VXH50 is significantly inferior to it not only in quality and functionality, but also in price. Boneco W2055DR looks very, very “pale” against their background.

Attention! This rating is subjective in nature, is not an advertisement and does not serve as a purchase guide. Before purchasing, consultation with a specialist is required.

Content

The excellent atmosphere in the house depends not only on the design delights, but also on the quality of the air we breathe. Fresh renovations are pleasing to the eye, but an air purifier will help make the premises comfortable. Find out which one is right for you and how much you can buy it for.

Operating principles and characteristics of air purifiers

Any room, be it a lounge with friends, a nursery, an office or a kitchen, needs regular cleaning. A large accumulation of dust makes it difficult for ordinary people to breathe, and even dangerous for those with allergies. An apartment air purification system not only removes it, but also cleans the space from cigarette smoke, pollen, fights bacteria and viruses, and also kills harmful microbes. The air becomes clean when it passes through the purifier filter.

The main characteristic of a dust cleaner is productivity (on average 180-420 m3/h): this indicator determines how quickly the device can clean the air. Another important parameter is the square footage of the room - each device has its own efficiency calculated for certain numbers: 15, 20, 35 square meters. Some devices have additional functions; they can act as an ionizer or humidifier:

• In the first case, pollutant particles passing through the ionization chamber change their charge and settle on the dust collector plates.
• In the second, the dust falls on the wet drum plates, which are immersed in water as they rotate.

Filter types

Which air purifier to choose for an apartment if there are many types? Filtering and photocatalytic ones are considered the most popular, and electrostatic, ionic, inertial, and air washing are also often in demand. Purifiers are considered very effective devices; their job is to filter the air. They regularly need new replacement parts. Filters by type are divided into:

• Coal. The main component is activated carbon. Designed to remove unpleasant odors and gas impurities from the air.
• Mechanical. Function – retention of large particles (animal hair, large dust balls). It is a regular mesh that can be cleaned with a vacuum cleaner. Requires replacement after six months.
• HEPA filters. Made from a porous material based on fiberglass. Detains large and small particles.
• Combined. Green tea, anti-allergenic substances, antibacterial enzymes included in this type of filter are especially useful for people with low immunity. The combination of components fights viruses and bacteria.

How to choose an air purifier for your home

You need to approach the purchase of serious devices thoroughly. If you're adamant that you need an air purifier for your home, consider these criteria to help you make your choice. Study the most important points and nuances of its use, watch the video and it will be much easier to decide which air purifier to choose for your apartment. Factors to consider:

• Room area. Decide whether you will buy a separate device for each room or plan to move it. In the second case, you need to focus on the largest area.
• A task to be performed. A large amount of dust and the presence of allergy sufferers in the home require a special approach to choosing an air purifier. The removal of particles floating in the room that people breathe is subject to ionizer purifiers and air washes (driven through water). Allergies are caused not only by the dust itself, but also by dust mites, fungus, and mold contained in it. A photocatalytic air purifier or ozonizer can combat them. An ozonizer and ionizer will help get rid of the problem of fatigue, lethargy and insomnia. A purifier-humidifier is needed for rooms where there is excessive dryness.
• Frequency of required care. Every day you need to go to the “air wash” purifier, once a week - to the electrostatic one. Cleaning of the ozonator, photocatalytic purifier, and ionizer is required no more than once a month.
• Availability of night mode. For light sleepers, it is important to minimize the noise produced by the device.
• Method and location of device installation. Which air purifier to choose for your apartment is also decided depending on where you are going to put it. There are floor, wall (ceiling) and supply models (for cleaning and supplying air from the street).

Top 10 best manufacturers – 2019 ranking

Each manufacturer tries to attract the attention of consumers in their own ways: some offer a tempting price, while others offer better quality. This approach works well, because not everyone has the opportunity to buy an expensive household dust collector for their home. The rating of manufacturers popular in 2019 will help you decide which air purifier to choose for your apartment. The list looks like this:

1. Boneco (air purification devices of Swiss origin, world-class brand). Boneco Air-O-Swiss E2441A is a popular model designed for air humidification. The air humidifier does not make noise, does its job perfectly, saves energy, and is easy to maintain.
2. Atmos. A Russian manufacturer offering multifunctional devices for removing dust and ionizing air in the house. The cleaners are simple, durable and reliable, and affordable.
3. Panasonic. The well-known model F-VXH50 operates silently and requires monthly maintenance. Thanks to the long service life of the filters (about 10 years) and high-quality assembly, the purifier stands high above its competitors.
4. Philips. The brand is known to everyone in the household appliances market. Among filter purifiers, the Philips AC 4080 model is popular, and Philips HU 5930 is a popular humidifier-purifier.
5. LG. Korean brand known for its household appliances. One of the best purifier models, LG PH-U451WN, effectively removes dust, hair and pollen from the air, as well as mites, bacteria, and unpleasant odors.
6. Timberk. A Swiss company that produces air purifiers and equipment to maintain a comfortable climate in the home. The build quality is inferior to the segment leaders, but it has a nice unique design and an affordable price.
7. Ballu. Chinese brand of ultrasonic cleaner manufacturers. Pleases with the unique design of devices for children's rooms (devices are shaped like favorite cartoon characters).
8. Sharp. This is far from a budget line of air purifiers. The compact size, beautiful design, reliability and power of devices of this brand make them expensive products. The Sharp KC-A61RW humidifier-purifier became popular in 2019; Sharp KC-A41 RW/RB is known among filtering devices.
9. Mitsubishi Electric. Products of this brand are assembled and developed in Japan. Automation is a noticeable advantage of one of the best devices - MA-E83H-R1 Fresh Home. The purifier itself determines the level of air pollution and activates the desired mode. The filter needs to be replaced after 8 years.
10. Hitachi. It is a Japanese brand, which indicates high build quality. A popular model is the EP-A5000 WH, equipped with dust, odor, and humidity sensors, and operates in semi-automatic mode.

Where to buy and how much does an air purifier for your home cost?

Household appliances departments cannot provide a wide selection of such expensive appliances, so they often offer to order the product. Find out which air purifier you can choose for your apartment by reading their prices provided in online stores:

• Boneco products are not suitable for everyone; their cost is about 30,000 rubles.
• Ballu cleaners are almost half the price - about 15,000 rubles.
• Panasonic air purification devices cost about 23,000 rubles.
• Atmos and Folter dust cleaners range in price from 2,000 to 10,000 rubles.

Which is better - a humidifier or an air purifier?

Each device has its own advantages and disadvantages, even their tasks are different. The main function of a humidifier is to move dry air through a curtain of water. This significantly improves the atmosphere in the house. Cleaners are designed to get rid of unpleasant odors (food, cigarette smoke or sewage), allergens (dust and mites), and bacteria. Thanks to these devices, the well-being of allergy sufferers improves and immunity increases. If both of these functions are very important to you - moisturizing and cleaning - purchase a device that combines them.

Air purifiers: who needs them?

To provide homes with fresh, clean air in poor environmental conditions of the city, household air purifiers were created. In a short period of time, the developers equipped air purifiers with a huge range of different filters that can filter the air efficiently. It seems that if you think about it, is a household air purifier really so necessary for people?

Cities and towns are constantly being landscaped, thousands of trees and shrubs are being planted, and flower beds are being planted. Logically, the atmospheric mixture should be clean. But statistics stubbornly claim that the number of allergy sufferers is growing every year. The reason is not only poplar fluff, but also major contamination - animal hair, dust, viruses, bacteria, unpleasant odors.

Why purify indoor air?

The environment around us, the air we breathe, concrete walls heated by the sun, smog - contain many harmful substances. Their content in the atmospheric mixture is an order of magnitude higher than the permissible standards for normal human existence. Caring about the condition of the air we inhale, the health of children, and maintaining immunity, we strive to protect ourselves and our environment by purchasing a room air purifier. This compact desktop device, which is very inexpensive, will help you avoid many health problems.

Everyone knows that near highways and residential buildings the level of pollution with nitrogen oxides and carbon monoxide exceeds its norms by 10-15 times. The atmospheric gas that surrounds us contains an incredible amount of harmful substances. Their large list includes skin scales and hairs, particles of ordinary dust, fungal spores, eggs and dust mite particles. A home air purifier can be useful in literally every apartment.

Without thinking, people fill their apartments with materials such as MDF, chipboard, various paints and other similar things. Artificial products made from mass-produced waste wood are directly responsible for the smell of “newness” after renovation, because they fill the air with toxic pungent fumes, filtered by an air purifier. If you do not purchase a purification device, then the air in a residential building becomes unsafe for human life, and even more so for allergy sufferers. It's up to you to decide which air purifier to choose, but the fact that it is necessary is obvious.
