There is increasing awareness among consumers today about the need to have clean air within a room, home, and building. Living in towns and cities means contending with polluted air, and the need to have clean air is as important as consuming nutritious and healthy food. The good news is that there are a number of air purifiers available that can assist in keeping the indoor air quality (IAQ) at acceptable levels. Each different type of air purifier works in its own unique way, and each has its own advantages and disadvantages.

What are Negatively Charged Ions, and why do we Want Them?

Air purifier ionizers are a good alternative to the standard air purifiers available on the market today, because they help to produce a stream of negatively charged ions. These ions have been scientifically proven to be effective in uplifting the atmosphere and achieving the same quality of the air that one breathes near a waterfall or in other natural outdoor environments. The air purifier ionizer works by producing a stream of negative ions that bond together with the particles in the air. This results in a weight gain of the particles, which makes them drop to the ground where they can be vacuumed away.

The air purifier ionizer is an interesting alternative to the standard air purifier and may be worth a try if you desire cleaner air in your home. It is also the quickest method of getting particulates out of the air, and does not require filters that need cleaning or replacement, making this type of air purifier easy to maintain as well as effective.

The air purifier ionizer is not without its drawbacks. Because it can put an electric charge on particulates floating about in the air, when these drop to the floor it can require more frequent vacuuming. Also, if the air purifier ionizer is placed too close to a wall, the result may be that particles will adhere to the wall and thus cause a black-wall effect that can be difficult to wash away.

Choosing an air purifier ionizer with low levels of ozone is preferable, since the ozone reacts with the ionized particle and gets converted back into oxygen. High levels of ozone would be more suitable for environments with .04 ppm or less. One should also bear in mind that the air purifier ionizer is effective in one room only.
