Individual Room Air Purifiers

If you were to perform a standard internet search for air purifiers, you would likely return a number of different results. Those results would likely include a number of different air purifiers that are currently available for sale. While all of these air purifiers may vary, in one way or another, many have something in common. That tends to be the amount of space which the air purifier can successfully clean.
Online, you can find a wide variety of different air purifiers, as mentioned above. While some of these air purifiers are designed for the whole house, you will find that most are not. Instead, most air purifiers are designed only to handle a small, but reasonable about of space. It is not uncommon to find air purifiers that can work in rooms with 200 square feet, 250 square feet, 300 square feet, or even 350 square feet. It is possible to find air purifiers that work in spaces larger or smaller than the above mentioned square footages, but they tend to be the norm.

WBM 8-Inch Himalayan Natural Crystal Salt Lamp with Bulb and Cord WBM 8-Inch Himalayan Natural Crystal Salt Lamp with Bulb and Cord

Reviews

I thought the lamp was pretty cool. It's different and it looks interesting. Great piece for any room. It has a nice glow to it. On a more disgusting note, my whole family licked it. It tasted like salt. :)

I must admit to thinking the pictures were retouched. However, when I plugged it in I was pleasantly surprised to find that the lamp is even prettier than shown. Since it is chunk of rock salt, irregularly shaped, some areas are thicker than others resulting in deeper oranges. The glow is quite lovely and reminds me of lava. When off, it is salmon pink with shades of white to dark-pink. My lamp is about 11" tall and about 18" around. It is not crumbly or flaky. The wooden base is sturdy and doesn't look cheap. I plan to purchase more salt lamps for my bedroom and study because they are so pretty. At this price, and with free shipping, it is quite a bargain.

I moved into my new apartment and had the worst allergies. I was taking medicine but I was still waking up every morning with a lot of mucous in my sinuses/throat/everywhere. So a friend told me about her salt crystal lamp and how it had helped her so I went ahead and bought this. I've been using it for about 2 weeks now and no more allergies! This think is amazing! I was skeptical at first especially since it's electric but even after a couple days of use I noticed a huge improvement.

The lamp I got is beautiful, with an aromatic glow. I plugged it in about three minutes ago and my room already has a more relaxed feel and mood. I recommend this high-quality product to anyone who likes nature.

This is a really nice and original lamp, creates a beautiful atmosphere with his soft redish light. It's very well done and natural. (so natural that it cries salty tears when it's on long time, nothing to worry about, it's caracteristique of the product and it won't spoil your furniture)

Bring divine harmony to any room with this beautiful salt crystal lamp. Its therapeutic glow of orange hues infuses a natural calm bringing the mind and body to a gradual sense of tranquility and well being...

Surround Air XJ-3800 Intelli-Pro Air Purifier Surround Air XJ-3800 Intelli-Pro Air Purifier

Reviews

i bought this with the hopes of clearing the bedroom air of allergens that keep my nose constantly clogged up. this unit did not help my allergies but it does take odors out of the air and is very quiet.

I really like this machine. I have been running it for a few weeks. It runs so quietly. It detects odors before I can and starts cleaning the air. I think this was a good purchase.

This filter is quiet and efficient. I was concerned about the reviews that mentioned how loud the unit was. I find it very quiet. Set on auto it stays on quiet mode. When it detects an odor or poor air quality it kicks up the power, usually only to low or medium, handles the problem air quality and then kicks right back down to quiet mode.

(I'm going to try and use a paucity of words but be informative. LOL !) MY PROBLEM: Six year Granddaughter's eyes would begin to burn after her being here 1-2 hours. My eyes also burned some. I have three dogs and (my steel trap mind) immediately suspected pet dander. MY SOLUTION: I have a small entry foyer with a doggie door through the storm door leading outside and a doggie door through the main door into my home. I bought a Surround Air S3500 for that small area because that unit moves about twice as much air (CFM) as the XJ3800 and will capture heavier contaminantes such as pet hair. The higher (CFM) air movement of the S3500 creates more noise but I don't care as that noise is outside earshot. SURROUND AIR XJ3800.....put the XJ3800 in the den where most (waking) time is spent. That unit is quiet - except on highest fan speed - cause that unit is not moving a lot of air. Also has all the other needed filters/filtration plus the HEPA. VACUUM CLEANER: Also switched to a HEPA bag in the vac. MY RESULTS: Granddaughter's eyes no longer burn. My eyes no longer burn. Success. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Comments: 1. To clean air two things are a 'must' 1) HEPA filter....2) ability to move air through the filter. Moving air makes noise. Moving a lot of air makes a lot of noise. (Remember boys and girls, there ain't no free lunch.) Additional filters/lights certainly help with various problems but it all starts with the HEPA. 2. Despite marketing claims to the contrary, these portable air purifiers are for ONE ROOM. (Just like window air conditioners are for one room.) 3) Most manufacturer square footage claims are exaggerated. Reduce square footage certainly by one-third and by one-half to be sure. 4. CADR (Clean Air Delivery Rate) numbers are suspect. Stick with square footage. You want to cycle (clean) the air in the room 5-6 times per hour. Get your room measurement - length and width PLUS ceiling height - and call/email the manufacturer/vendor with that info and have them calculate the needed CFM.

In the past I've used just about every kind of air purifier that exists, and with varying costs and effectiveness, but this one just rocks my socks! It cleans everything, and I mean E.V.E.R.Y.T.H.I.N.G! Dust? Not anymore. Odors? Gone. Pollen? Not a single sneeze or watery eye. This truly is the best air purifier on the market hands down. Trust me, I've done the research not to mention have practical experience with other air purifiers. I definitely recommend this to everyone. My only complaint is with the shipping - the box was all bashed up, and it looked like it was taped by a monkey! The machine had several scuff marks and a black dust all over it and inside of it, but after cleaning it off and following the Manual instructions (of running it constantly for 8 hours and then unplugging it without turning it off so as to reset the sensors and make them more sensitive) everything worked perfectly. Not a single problem with the machine, and a persistent odor that I could never seem to get rid of was completely GONE in about 36 hours of running on high. My apartment has air vent registers in the floor of each room and for some reason dust and allergens come through it from my neighbors apartments but after putting in vent register filters and running this machine it's like living in a completely different apartment! (oh and I have a cat too, and there is no kitty litter/cat poopies smell at all)

Eva-dry EDV-E-500 Renewable Wireless Mini Dehumidifer Eva-dry EDV-E-500 Renewable Wireless Mini Dehumidifer

Reviews

Keeps the safe nice and dry never a problem with dampness just recharge them by plugging them in when the crystal balls go clear wait for them to be blue again about 24 hours is what I leave them for and they are ready to go back to work. One piece of advice when you plug them in if you have multiple units keep them apart. They do get hot and if they are close together there combined heat will melt there plastic housings. I learned this the hard way. I don't blame the product for this as I knew they get hot to purge the moisture in the crystals and I was careless. It is a great product for any kind of safe large or small.

I live in a 400 sq. ft. cottage. thought this would be perfect. Nope. The description says it doesn't need recharging for 60 days, but I end up having to plug it in every week or so. Probably best for walk-in closet sized rooms. After about a week, the scented insert was scented-no-more.

The instructions for the E-500 are vague, but I eventually figured out how to use the hook through the power prongs. One thing that is really confusing, and I think the cause of some 1 star reviews is the status window. The instructions say when the beads are blue, they are ready to absorb moisture, and when they are pink, they are at full capacity and need recharging. The status window where you view the beads is dark blue, and if you don't look closely, the beads will always look blue. If you can tell your eyes to ignore the blue background, you can see the true color of the beads. I think mine were pink for weeks before I discovered they were pink. Other than those two issues, this is a good product and works well. Like other reviewers have noted, you cannot just plug this into a wall outlet to recharge it. You need to plug it into a power strip so the plug goes downward into the outlet and the power strip can support the weight of the E500. It should recharge in a place where it can release the absorbed moisture. I recharge mine in the garage.

I bought this to fit into a walk in closet and then in a safe. The walk in closet was a little to big for this little guy although it did work just not enough. it's perfect for the safe. Plugging it in is easy. After about half a day it is not hydrated and I can put it back to do its job. I'm actually going to buy 2 for the walk in closet. It's easy to read and easy to discharge.

I bought two of this items to place in my bathroom and garage. They do not seem working at all :(

Vicks Personal Steam Inhaler Vicks Personal Steam Inhaler

Reviews

After using it the first time, tiny blood vessels appeared on my cheeks. Looks like it will be permanent damage. Afterwards, I've used it with the face a few inches away from the plastic and it didn't produce any effects on my nasal congestion (from allergies). I had better results with the Neti pot.

This is a great little steamer. I suffer from chronic sinus headaches, and often, steam is the only thing that will get rid of them. You do have to be careful not to put your face on the mask, as the steam is too hot. But overall, great product. Small, and gets the job done!

I bought this inhaler during spring allergy season. I am a singer and had a performance in June. My allergies were bad, and I was coughing, had lots of phlegm, and the coughing was irritating my throat. This inhaler was very easy to use, and was extremely helpful in helping me expectorate. It is great and inexpensive!

The steam generation is a bit weak. I would've preferred at least the option of generating more steam.

For cold, flu, bronchitis, sinusitis, laryngitis, and allergy sufferers, this personal steam inhaler restores sufficient moisture to the lungs and respiratory tract. The patented plastic hood is contoured to cradle the face comfortably and directs warm moist air right into the nose and throat to temporarily relieve nasal, sinus, and chest congestion...

Kaz Home Environment HFD-120 Honeywell Oscillating Tower IFD Air Purifier Kaz Home Environment HFD-120 Honeywell Oscillating Tower IFD Air Purifier

Reviews

The thing I like about this filter is the oscillating feature although mine has decided not to oscillate after just over a year. The prefilter makes this a better filter than most of its type. The prefilter catches large particles while finer dust is processed in the metal washable filter. There is only one problem with this arrangement however, unless those particles are coated with super glue, they tend to blow right out the front side as evidenced by all the dust on the front of the unit. The problem is that the finer the particle the more dangerous it is for your health, the deeper it can be inhaled. For those mold spores that it DOES catch, it is death through the dehydrating process as air constantly moves over them, that is if they don't break away and fly out of the front over time due to the current. Cleaning is relatively easy, unless you happen to smoke. in that cause, the little 5 mins soak in warm dishwater just wont cut it. On the bright side, since cigarette smoke it so sticky, maybe it will encourage those pesky dut molecules to stay on the grill they are deposited on. Still searching for a better filter. I will tell you about the plasama cluster in about 6 mos.

Air Supply Purifier - Mini Air Supply Purifier - Mini

Reviews

Three weeks after I purchased this Air Supply Purifier - Mini, I took a flight on Continental from Cleveland to Europe and had this thing around my neck for about 5 to 10 minutes, when a flight attendant stopped by and asked me to turn it off right away. I asked her why. She replied with: '' Last week one of these caught fire and burned a seat and the passenger. They are or will be banned by airlines.'' I haven't used it since. Check it out before you buy one for flights on Airlines.

Since individual room air purifiers only clean the air in a limited amount of space, you may be wondering whether or not they are worth the buy. Honestly, it all depends on how much of your home’s air you would like to have cleaned. If you have a room where smoking takes place or where you pets tend to reside, you may be able to make due with an individual room air purifier. However, if smoking takes place throughout your whole house or if your pets roam throughout your home, freely, you may want to think about purchasing a whole house air purifier.

As with all other products, individual room air purifiers come in a wide variety of different sizes, shapes, and styles. This also means that they will likely come in a wide variety of different prices. It is not uncommon to find individual room air purifiers that sell for as little as fifty dollars, but as high as one thousand dollars. Honestly, the cost of an individual room air purifier will all depend on the quality of the product. See, in most cases, you will find that the better performing air purifiers tend to cost the most money. Despite the increase in costs, you may find that they are actually a better value.

Before purchasing an individual room air purifier, you may want to measure the space inside that room. This will help to ensure that you purchase an air purifier that can effectively clean the air inside your room. Purchasing an air purifier with a maximum square footage that is smaller than the size of your room may make it so the air purifier cannot do its job, at least the correct way. When examining the square footage of the room, in which you would like the air purifier to be, it is also important that you think about whether or not a door is on that room. When using an air purifier, having the door to the room closed will often produce better results.

If you are interested in purchasing an individual room air purifier for your bedroom, the living room, your home office, or your child’s room, you should easily be able to find a reasonably priced make and model. You can find these air purifiers by visiting one of your local retail stores, as well as by shopping online.
