Now that you have a baby, you want the room where they spend most of their time to be perfect. Using an air purifier to make sure the air stays fresh is a good move. But a cleaner with the wrong features can be worse than not having one. Here are 5 features you want to avoid when choosing a cleaner for your baby.
Harmful By-Product---The only by product for any purifier should be fresh air. Those cleaners that produce any amount of ozone should be avoided. Studies have found that in order for them to be effective the amount of ozone would have to reach deadly levels.
Ionizing units depend on charging particles and attracting them to a steel plate inside the unit. The problem is that the steel plate does not always capture all of them, and charged particles are more likely to stick to lining inside the lungs. Both ozone and ionizing technology should be avoided at all costs.
Limited Operation---The pollutants in your baby's room won't take a break and the cleaner you choose shouldn't have to take one either. Look in the technical specifications to confirm that the unit can run 24 hours a day. That is the level of filtration that is necessary to keep the in the nursery fresh, and clean.
A split capacitor motor is the type of motor necessary to allow the unit to operate safely and effectively 24 hours a day every day whether you are home or away. Continuous cleaning is the only way to assure that your baby's air is always healthy.
One Filtration Speed---With a baby things happen fast, and often without warning. You need a unit that can respond quickly and efficiently. Having the ability to adjust the speed at which the air is cleaned is a huge advantage.
Low, medium, and high speed options on a cleaner can allow you to clean up the air just as fast as you need it when you need it. And when life calms down again you can adjust the filtration speed to match.
One or No Filter---The more filters a cleaner has the better able it is to eliminate particles without constant replacement filters being necessary. Units with one or no filter almost always mean a lot of maintenance with washing, spraying cleaning or vacuuming the filter. And even with all the extra work, the filter life is generally only 3 to 6 months.
Frequent filter replacement adds to the cost to run the machine, and time spent replacing the filter is time that the air is not being cleaned.
A better choice is a purifier with multiple sized filters that are able to eliminate a wide range of particles varying from those you can see to those that are microscopic. It is also a huge advantage to choose a unit that has a filter that can eliminate gaseous pollutants as well.
Avoid Ugly---You've probably worked hard to make your baby's room beautiful. Just because you want clean air shouldn't mean you have to have an ugly purifier.
Choose a cleaner that can offer you a wide range of colors including pink, blue, and other more neutral colors. The right cleaner will be able to stay with your child for a long, long time.
