			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The best way to beat the heat is to install air conditioner window  units. When there are so many options, why should we go for this one?  Well, a window AC is best when you have to cool a single room or two max  rather than the whole house or office. Plus, their plus points include  less operation costs, ease of repair due to their simple structure and  the ability of these ac units to draw less energy, thus erasing your  worries about high electricity bills. However, the only price you have  to pay for these benefits is the need for routine maintenance to clean  the filter.</p>
<p>The air conditioner window units are considered good  options in most areas where only summers are extremely hot. This is  mainly because these window air conditioner units don’t require window  installations, thus their portability can be seen when they are removed  from windows during winter to be stored away till the next summer.  However, in places where temperatures remain high all year round,  prepping your AC to be wall mounted is a better option rather than  having to dislocate it every time you need space.</p>
<p>Besides  providing a cooling effect during the heat, air conditioner window units  help in controlling the humidity of the room in which they are  installed. Usually the size of the unit helps, because if you have a  small window unit in your spacious room, then you are bound to have at  least a bit of humidity, so if you want that problem eliminated, make  sure that you ask the salesman regarding which unit would work best for  you. Having the measurement of the room in which the ac will be put up  will be quite helpful as well.</p>
<p>True, when compared with other air  conditioning units, air conditioner window units showed limited  versatility and efficiency ratings (a measure which approximates the  unit’s operating cost in comparison with similar models), still, the  word on the street is if you want a solution that saves your furniture  from humidity, protects you from the scorching heat outside and doesn’t  stretch your pocket, then a window air conditioner is probably a great  deal for you.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Breathing clean air again is possible, thanks to the Ionic Breeze Quadra  Silent Air Purifier. Designed especially for allergy and asthma  sufferers, this machine is one of successful high end air purifiers  available in the market. The word on the street is that a high end air  purifier is different from others because it uses electrostatic  principles to catch airborne particle like dust, bacteria, pet dander,  pollen and other specks which irritate different people’s respiratory  systems. The Ionic Air Quadra Silent Air Purifier traps these particles  within its blades, thus producing ionic air that is microbe and allergen  free.</p>
<p>How this purifier works is really simple. The Ionic Breeze  Quadra Silent has no motor and no fan to move the air towards it,  however, it manages to direct air in the direction of its body by using a  mechanism that charges the air particles electrostatically on one side,  thus causing an imbalance which causes the molecules to head to the  rear end of the device. Once inside, the air particles pass through  metal plates which are charged opposite to them to attract them and only  allow clean air out of the other side. This air purifier has a few  advantages to add to its merits.</p>
<p>The first advantage of the Ionic  Breeze Quadra Silent is silent air generation, thus enabling the device  to be used in public venues like restaurants and offices without having  to worry about the level of noise it will produce. Another benefit it  gives its users is its ease of maintenance. This purifier doesn’t  require a professional to clean it, nor does it need filter replacement  because all you need to do is take out the metal plates, which are also  called collection rods, and wipe them with a damp cloth. Aside from  those, the lightweight device doesn’t require much energy and can help  in odor reduction.</p>
<p>If you are checking the Ionic Breeze Quadra  Silent Air Purifier’s reviews, then you may stumble on some which  indicate that the device produces ozone gas as a byproduct. However, the  latest devices, which are called the “Pro” series, come with a  mechanism embedded in the front grill to convert almost all the produced  ozone into harmless one, thus both you and the environment are safe.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A Blueair 402 Air Purifier is a top of the line model that is known for  its ultra-quiet design and impressive air cleaning capabilities.  With  the ability to clean multiple rooms in your home, this system is a  perfect replacement for any air purifier that is not currently stacking  up to you and your family’s needs.  For the very best in air  purification technology, you do not need to look further than Blueair.</p>
<p>In  the past several years, air cleaners have grown in popularity.  This is  not only true for the HEPA filter variations, but also the ionic  systems.  However, the Blueair models have something completely unique –  HEPASilent filter technology.  This technology is a new way to filter  air, not through a traditional filter, but by charging the particles of  dust, pollen, and other irritants, causing them to cling to the filter.   This distinct design allows for the removal of 99.97% of 0.1 micron  particles.  Many other systems may be able to remove large particles,  but to remove such a large number of even the tiniest irritants is what  makes Blueair a step above other models.  This is especially important  for allergy sufferers who are typically more susceptible to small  particle irritants.</p>
<p>The Blueair 402 is roughly the size of a CPU  on a desktop computer, which is slightly larger than many other models.   However, it also cleans a larger area, reaching out to 365 square  feet.  The sound of the 402 is also comparable to that of a computer  when it is on its lowest setting.  However, even as the system cleans on  its highest setting, it is still very quiet and not particularly  bothersome.  Another remarkable feature of this model is the manner in  which is emits air back into the room.  While many other models blow air  out, causing an irritating draft, the Blueair gently releases air which  is barely noticeable to those around the machine.</p>
<p>When it comes  to air system purification, few models compare to the Blueair possibly  the <a title="ionic air purifier" href="http://www.ionic-airpurifier.net">ionic air purifier</a> models.  While many other models can actually become a breeding ground  for bacteria because of the poor design of the filters inside the  machine, the Blueair 402 Air Purifier has filters made from  bacteria-resistant polypropylene.  Not only is polypropylene a better  choice for the use of air filters, it is also safer for the environment  after they are discarded.  This is just one more reason the Blueair is  the only choice for air purification.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Regardless of the field being investigated, Consumer Reports has become  the Bible to those in search of the very best in retail goods.  For the  savvy buyer, it makes the most sense to research the products they are  interested in and be certain they are getting the very best for their  spending dollar.  The same has proven true with quality, top-rated air  cleaners.  The dangers of breathing unclean air have been tested and  proven; now, let’s take a look into Consumer Reports- Air Purifiers.</p>
<p>For  those that may not be familiar with it, Consumer Reports is a magazine  that gathers product information &#8211; such as a review customers may  submit, any testing information provided by the company itself, and  outside investigative sources &#8211; to compile all the relevant data a  consumer needs to make an informed decision.  Not only does Consumer  Reports gather the information, but they also rate the products based on  the data they collect.  Therefore, when you see that a product is  “top-rated by Consumer Reports”, you know that rigorous testing has been  done and the product has measured up in the face of the competition as  being a good purchase.  You may also know that a poor rating from  Consumer Reports reveals that a particular product may not be the best  way to spend your hard-earned money.</p>
<p>When it comes to air  purifiers, there is a wide array of models available &#8211; from the very  simple forms that filter the air, such as those with a HEPA filter, to  ozone machines or <a title="cheap air purifiers" href="http://www.ionic-airpurifier.net/">cheap air  purifiers</a> that boast that they release cleaner, ionic air into your  home.  Because this is an area that many consumers may not be  knowledgeable in, it makes sense that someone in the market for an air  purification system would want to research their purchase instead of  just going on the advertisements of any particular company.  By turning  to Consumer Reports, you can see what other users think of various air  purifiers and how they measure up in industry tests.</p>
<p>To begin  your search among Consumer Reports air purifiers, you should look on the  internet.  You may be able to find rating information without having to  subscribe to the actual magazine.  However, to get the full benefit,  you can order Consumer Reports, not only for air purification systems,  but for any product you may be in the market for.  Whether it be a car  or toaster, Consumer Reports allows you to be an informed buyer in the  marketplace.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Many people do not realize the many benefits of whole house air  purifiers.  Others realize <a title="ionic air purifier" href="http://www.ionic-airpurifier.net">ionic  air purifiers</a> are beneficial but they instead rely on single room  units, which can be costly and not work as effectively as a whole-house  air purification system.  To ensure your home is full of clean, natural  air, instead of dust, dander and allergens, you should consider  installing a system that will effectively clean the air in your entire  house.</p>
<p>If you have ever looked in a central air duct in your  house, you know what kind of dust is floating around in the air.  This  is not only bad for people with allergies and asthma, but it can  actually cause you to become sick even if you do not have these  ailments.  There are many HEPA filtration systems available on the  market to clean the air in your house; many vacuums and home appliances  even have them built in now to clean and filter the air as you clean the  rest of your home.  However, these systems are relatively small and can  not keep up with the demands of your family.  On the other hand, a  system that cleans the air for your entire house is less expensive than  individual models and works better at keeping the air clean.</p>
<p>Generally  speaking, for less than a couple of thousand dollars, you can have a  whole house air purifier installed in your basement or in the crawl  space under your house.  These systems work day and night to filter and  clean the air your family breaths to ensure they stay as healthy as  possible.  If you or someone in your family suffers from allergies, you  can only imagine the relief you would feel if most or all of the  allergens were removed from inside your home and replaced with clean  air.  You would no longer be at the mercy of the seasons, but instead  would be able to enjoy your home as it was meant to be.</p>
<p>You will  be able to smell the freshness in the air as the whole house air  purifiers release clean air into every room of your house.  Without your  home being properly set-up, clean air is able to escape on a regular  basis.  However, as part of the installation process, areas of your home  where clean air would escape or dirty air would be let in would all be  closed up making your home a clean air sanctuary.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A Hunter Air Purifier has proven to be one of the top models of air  cleaners on the market.  With its Quietflo technology, this air purifier  has proven that you do not need a bulky, loud machine to have clean  fresh air.  In fact, with a Hunter&#8217;s QuietFlo True HEPA Air Purifier,  you can provide clean air to 225 square feet of your home with a box  that is only 16 inches tall.  Its small, discreet design fits ideally  into any décor and it is practically silent like most <a title="cheap air purifiers" href="http://www.ionic-airpurifier.net">cheap  air purifiers.</a></p>
<p>Hunter  is not only known as providing a quality air purifier; it is also a  leader in humidifiers and even thermostats and ceiling fans.  The  company was founded in 1886 with the introduction of a water powered  ceiling fan before the use of electricity or air conditioning.  Over a  century later, this company thrives to provide the very best in any air  cleaner, replacement filter, and related product on the market.  As  evidence of this, Hunter has grown to be one of the top producers in  home air purification systems.</p>
<p>You may ask yourself why breathing  cleaner air improves your health.  After all, people have lived for  thousands of years without air purification systems.  The answer is very  simple.  As time has progressed and people spend more and more time  indoors, the dust and dander that collects in their homes is slowly  causing more health risks.  For people with allergies or asthma, this  can be apparent.  However, people without those issues are also more  likely to become sick and have respiratory problems, such as infections,  when they breathe air that has not been properly purified.  This is  especially the case in the winter months, when windows are kept closed  and fresh air is not allowed to circulate through out your home.   Chemicals from cigarette smoke and cleaning products also collect in  your home and are breathed in by all the inhabitants, also causing  potential health problems.</p>
<p>Finding a Hunter Air Purifier,  filters, and related products is as easy as an internet search.  When  your health and the health of your family is a top priority, do not  hesitate to consider the line of Hunter products to provide the clean,  pure air your family deserves.  While there is a small expense in the  beginning, it will be nothing compared to the money you save in the long  term on medical bills and related healthcare costs.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div id="_mcePaste">The <strong>air purifier</strong> industry is growing in size every year and it has now become so large that in America 250 million dollars is spent every year for people trying to clean their homes from allergens and dirty air. Many of the people buying these <a title="cheap air purifiers" href="http://www.ionic-airpurifier.net">cheap </a><strong><a title="cheap air purifiers" href="http://www.ionic-airpurifier.net">air purifiers</a></strong> are sufferers of asthma or have some kind of allergy.</div>
<div id="_mcePaste">Some scientific studies have been done but they are not conclusive that air purifiers are 100% sucessful in cleaning the air inside the home. Some higher end air purifiers are used by companies that need very clean sterile environments like computer server rooms.</div>
<div>Server rooms are required to be very clean and free from dust so the servers will not crash . The air cleaners used by these companies are more powerful than the ones you would find sold to consumers.</div>
<div id="_mcePaste"></div>
<div><strong>Is your House Clean?</strong></div>
<div><strong><br />
</strong></div>
<div id="_mcePaste">Air that is inside your house is usually not as clean as the air from outside. Even though outside air has many pollutants from cars, factories and exhaust it usually escapes higher into the atmosphere where it does not irritate people who are breathing the air.</div>
<div id="_mcePaste">The air inside your house can be dirty due to air conditioners circulating dust and particles around different rooms of the house. Also inside your house there tends to be more areas where moisture can gather and most can grow.</div>
<div id="_mcePaste">Pets fur that goes into the air can also add to the uncleanliness of the air inside your home. Insects, fleas and ticks can be brought inside to your house from your pet.</div>
<div>Your house tends to collect dirt particles because of the fabrics and upholsteries</div>
<div>
<p>contained inside.Pollens can also drift inside from windows and be caught in curtains or couches.</p>
</div>
<div id="_mcePaste">So if humans have been living inside for many years with air purifiers why do we need them now?</div>
<div id="_mcePaste">Allergies are on the increase and it is hard to know what the cause is, most people believe it is the air pollution caused by our factories, cars and other exhaust emitting activities.</div>
<div>So naturally people are looking for ways to improve the air quality that they breath.</div>
<p>Some <strong>cheap air purifiers</strong> can reduce the contaminents in the air leaving for a cleaner house. Depending on the size of the air purifier they can be limited to cleaning just one room or a whole house.</p>
<div id="_mcePaste">Some air purifiers have been tested to do NOTHING and are just a drain of power. So you need to be careful which one you buy.</div>
<div id="_mcePaste">Sometimes air purifiers are included in air conditioning units and can also be called <strong>&#8216;air cleaners&#8217;</strong></div>
<div><strong><br />
</strong></div>
<div id="_mcePaste">The way that they work is by using a filter. They pass the air through the filter which is a mesh that is designed to catch particles that are larger than air which would include, dust, pollen, hairs and other contaminents.</div>
<div id="_mcePaste">The air is then passed back out the other side cleanr than when it came in .</div>
<div id="_mcePaste">The filters can be made of cotton , foam and sometimes synthetic fibres. These filters must be cleaned or replaced at regular intervals otherwise they become less effective and can restrict the air flow causing them to be rather useless.</div>
<div id="_mcePaste">Differnet filters are designed to catch different size particles which certain standards in place measuring the effectiveness of the filters. The <strong>Department of Energy(DOE)</strong> creates these standards that must be passed before companies can label and sell their air purifiers to these standards.</div>
<div></div>
<div><strong>Different Types of Air Purifiers</strong></div>
<div><strong><br />
</strong></div>
<div id="_mcePaste"><strong>1.</strong> <strong>HEPA ( high efficiency particulate air )</strong> meets the department of energy standard for removing particles from the air. This standard requires that less than 0.03 percent of the particles passed though the filter that are 0.3 micrometers in size are allowed through the filter.</div>
<div id="_mcePaste">So small particles get stopped and are not allowed through along with of course the larger particles too.</div>
<div id="_mcePaste"><strong>ULPA(ultra low penetration air)</strong> is another standard that is even stricter than HEPA.</div>
<div>HEPA filters are commonly used by nuclear power industry and they are one of the more popular standards due to them working.</div>
<div></div>
<div><strong>2. Ozone Generators</strong></div>
<div><strong><br />
</strong></div>
<div id="_mcePaste">These work similar in the way that an ionizing purifier does but they are a little different. An ozone purifier sucks in oxygen and spits out ozone. It does this by exposing normal oxygen molecules to UV light which alters the molecule strcuture turning it into and ozone molecule.</div>
<div id="_mcePaste">This ozone is claimed to disinfect and deodorize the air.</div>
<div id="_mcePaste">There is no real evidence that the resulting Ozone lives up to all the claims and excessive ozone can cause things like corrosion to metals.</div>
<div>The EPA has also made claims that excess levels of ozone in the home is unsafe and can cause respiratory problems.</div>
<div></div>
<div><strong>3. Adsorbents</strong></div>

<div id="_mcePaste">Yes this is spelled correctly it is not &#8216;<em>absorbents</em>&#8216;. This is a material added to purifier filters supposedly to get rid of odors chemicals and fumes in the air. Adsorbtion is when a substance is trapped on the surface of another substance.</div>
<div id="_mcePaste">Charcoal is commonly used for this, so for example dust getting caught inside the charcoal and therefore being filtered out of the air making it cleaner.</div>

<div><strong>4. UV light</strong></div>
<div><strong><br />
</strong></div>
<div id="_mcePaste">These use ultraviolet light that is focussed on the air passing through the air purifier. UV light is able to kill certain organisms making them harmless and hopefully unable to cause irritations.</div>

<div><strong>Do Air purifiers really work?</strong></div>
<div><strong><br />
</strong></div>
<div id="_mcePaste">Is there proof? many air purifier companies have appeard in recent years as the market for purifiers has expanded and become popular. Where there is money there will also be misleading information from people trying to get a share of the <strong>$$</strong> in the industry.</div>
<div id="_mcePaste">Some of these groups have been exposed by consumer review magazines and even in some cases the EPA for their products being harmful or simply not doing what they claim to do.</div>
<div>This is a market that is not controlled by the FDA so they are sometimes able to make outrageous marketing claims without the need to back it up with studies.</div>
<div id="_mcePaste">Some of these products are not effective at removing ANY contaminants from the air. The EPA has also warned consumers about &#8216;ozone purifiers&#8217; as they may be harmful to peoples health.</div>
<div>Here is a statement from the EPA</div>
<div id="_mcePaste">&#8220;<em>Relatively low amounts [of ozone] can cause chest pain, coughing, shortness of breath, and, throat irritation. Ozone may also worsen chronic respiratory diseases such as asthma and compromise the ability of the body to fight respiratory infections</em>&#8220;</div>
<div id="_mcePaste">Not the best endorsement for ozone purifiers. It is said that all air purifiers emit some small amounts of ozone, although the ones specifically designed to be ozone generators do so at a much larger amount and become harmful to people.</div>
<div id="_mcePaste">Consumer reports also did some test of major brands of air purifiers and found them to have little to no impact on the amount of clean air they produced.</div>
<div id="_mcePaste">Although there are many products out there that do not work as advertised there are products that do work. On this site we will be reviewing many brands that are available on the market so you will know which products work and which ones to avoid.</div>
<div id="_mcePaste"></div>
<div>Some of the popular air purifiers advertised on late night televsion are some of the dubios products that were tested and found not to be effective in doing what they were supposed to do</div>
