HEPA (High Efficiency Particle Arresting) Purifier

Hepa air purifiers remove the smallest contaminants from the air. They remove 99.97% of all particles including bacteria, fungal and other microbiological organisms. It contains a filter that is composed of millions of small glass fibers. The tiny fibers of the HEPA filter capture airborne contaminants and prevent them from being dispersed back into the room. The HEPA air cleaners will normally have a life span of 1 to 2 years and then have to be exchanged. The Hepa filter can remove such contaminants as smoke fumes, mold spores, pollen, pet dander, dust mites, and can trap airborne particles 0.3 microns and larger. Filtering these impurities from indoor air will decrease the severity of allergies, asthma, and other breathing related conditions.
