Honeywell HPA 710 Air purifier

When to buy an air purifier

The sources of air pollution from harmful and minute solids, odors, and emissions are manifold. First check and eliminate what causes air pollution. The difference and advantage of the Honeywell HPA100 Air Cleaner is that the Air Cleaner has another pre-filter and a switchable ionizer that can provide odorless air. The air quality indicator of this air purifier shows the air quality depending on the air condition in the room using odor and particle sensors.

Air cleaners can purify air from the following components:

• Solid and coarse dust particles
• Soot
• Mold spores
• Smoke particles
• Bacteria
• Virus
• Pollen
• Animal hair

What are ionizers?

An ionizer is an electrical device that, on the one hand, reduces air pollution from dust, pollen and spores and, on the other hand, increases people's well-being by increasing their ion density. For this purpose, ions are generated in the ionizer and released into the room air with a small fan.

Ions and suspended particles

Ion generated by ionizers in the Honeywell Air Cleaner are electrically charged atoms and molecules that have lost an electron or acquired an electron under the influence of energy. Due to this imbalance between protons and electrons, the particles are no longer electrically neutral. Since we took care at school, we know that opposing poles dress. This is no different for particles in house dust or pollen or spores.

Clean air through air cleaner

Air cleaners with filter system are equipped with several filters. This fact is based on the fact that a single filter can filter only a few pollutants from the room air and normally works with different filter systems. They pick up different particles and can filter them out of the air. With a combination of different filters, you can remove the most diverse impurities.

The most common types of filters are:

• prefilter
• UV filter
• HEPA filter
• Activated carbon filter

Every air purifier at KlimaLex is equipped with a pre-filter that filters out the heaviest dirt such as dust, animal hair or insects in the form of a sieve. This filter is not interchangeable. Normally it is only cleaned with a vacuum cleaner or some detergent.
In a UV filter, viruses or bacteria are neutralized by hydroxyl radicals, which are split off from organic components with wastes, usually carbon and water.
HEPA filters are considered to be the most effective inertial, barrier and diffusion type filters that filter up to 99.995% of all 0.1-0.3 micron particles from the air.
Activated carbon filters absorb pollutants and also act as catalysts for the decomposition of certain harmful substances. Since these filters can only absorb a certain amount of impurities, they have to be replaced after a while to be fully effective.

In the ionizer of Honeywell, also called ion generator, air is cleaned, because the room air charged negatively, d. H. is ionized. The resulting ions are lowered in the form of pollutant lumps. They can be collected and removed with a metal plate. An air filter that uses water instead of a filter system is more like an air scrubber. Here, the intake air is passed through a rotating roller, which is located above the water tank. Air slides along various water rollers that filter particles and contaminants.

Air cleaners filter pollutants from the air

Air Purifier Filter Pollutant The main purpose of an air purifier is to purify the air. Its task is therefore to filter out or liquidate dust particles, pollen, viruses, bacteria and chemical pollutants. There are several technical approaches: mechanical filters, UV lamps and photocatalysts, as well as ionizers and thermal air cleaners. Most air cleaners combine several of these filter levels in one device, such as Honeywell's HPA710 model well realized. The term "air purifier" is generally a term for all systems that can provide cleaner air from the air.

Air washers dampen the air

An air scrubber is used to purge the air, as is the case with a rain shower. For this purpose, the room air is passed through water rollers to bring them as close as possible to the liquid. Dust particles in the air adhere to the water film and are thus filtered out. This feature also allows the inclusion of dirt in air cleaners as large contaminants remain trapped in the water. Likewise, however, water molecules can escape into the air and thus increase the humidity. For this reason, air purifiers of this type are often classified as humidifiers. These air cleaners are both cleaners and humidifiers.
A common feature of air cleaners and humidifiers is that both devices can remove dust from the air. However, the performance of air purification filters is much higher: Honeywell HEPA filter-equipped cleaners, for example, can filter air particles as small as 0.1 microns out of the room air, including particulate matter, bacteria and even some viruses. With humidifiers, however, you can effectively remove only coarse dust and pollen from the air.

Another difference is the humidification function: Humidifiers also increase the humidity in the room, while air cleaners can purify the air without moistening it.

Air circulation

According to the air purifier test, you should carefully inspect the air circulation before purchasing. This shows how much air can circulate through the device over a certain period of time. Most of the air circulation is expressed in cubic meters per hour. Due to the higher air movement, the air becomes cleaner. If an air cleaner is to neutralize cigarette smoke, less air circulation is sufficient.

Noise

In particular, if you need an air cleaner for your bedroom or for a nursery, you should pay attention to the volume.

Filtrationssystem

Honeywell HPA710 has different types of filters. Honeywell's HEPA filter cleans the air very well. In addition, mold spores can be removed from the room air with Honeywell Air Cleaner. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the formation of mold using an air filter. If you have a lot of upholstered furniture that produces and attracts particulate matter very well, we recommend using a device with a HEPA filter. If you want to use the air purifier to remove unpleasant odors such as cigarette smoke, we recommend a device with activated carbon filter or an ionizer. Both filters are included in the Honeywell HPA710.

Are you allergic and sensitive to pollen? Or are you particularly sensitive to foreign bacteria or viruses in the air? Then you need an air purifier for allergy sufferers. It can be a photocatalyst air purifier. American doctors recommend the HEPA air purifier from Honeywell, the American leader in performance and quality. It quickly removes almost all impurities from the air.
If you suffer from dry indoor air, especially in winter, we recommend that you buy a water purifier. This improves the air quality in your environment and at the same time ensures the ideal humidity in your rooms.

Conclusion

If you're looking for an air purifier, you'll find several options at KlimaLex. Whether you are looking for a model for allergy sufferers or for mold spores, a HEPA air purifier is often a good choice. However, air cleaners with activated carbon filters and ionizers can often be used very successfully for removing odors. Added to this are humidifiers that can also help to improve the indoor climate. Among the most important purchase criteria include the performance and the air filter. They must be selected according to the purpose. You should also check the air circulation, volume and performance before purchasing an air purifier. It may be useful if the air purifier is equipped with a timer function. If you ultimately want to buy an air purifier, you should make your purchase decision in favor of the Honeywell HPA710, which is designed for most applications is suitable and certainly meets your requirements.
