Now when it comes down the actually understanding a purchase, you must put in a little time and not just pull the trigger on the first product you see. This is never more true than with hepa air purifiers. In the marketplace today, there are dozens upon dozens of different models all featuring different types of air filters and extra features to try to make them stand out against their competitors. It is important to realize that some of these air purifiers are in fact better performers than their competitors, despite what marketing efforts may lead you to believe. Only purchase a hepa air purifier utilizing true hepa air filters. Look for units with significant (several lbs. minimum) of activated carbone if you are concerned about odors or airborne chemicals. Look for units with a good seal between the filter and the housing. And keep in mind that these are still electronic appliances and a good warranty is always worth looking for. There are several companies like Austin Air and Alen Corp that offer pretty significant warranties. Even Whirlpool’s is five years.
