Selecting The Right Air Purifier for Your Smoke Concerns
Different needs require different solutions. What need do you have?
Designated Smoking Areas/Smoking Indoors
- Cigarette/Cigar smoking is occuring in the same room as the air purifier.
- Units contain high volumes of activated carbon to target cigarette chemicals & odors.
- HEPA filter is present to remove some ash/soot particles.
Secondhand Smoke
- Smoking is occuring elsewhere, or nearby, but not in the same room as the air purifier & occupants.
- These units will have a high volume of activated carbon to focus on smoke odor & chemical removal.
- For lighter concerns, air purifiers with less activated carbon can be used.
Wildfire Smoke
- Wildfires mostly produce ash and soot, so an air purifier with a HEPA filter is required.
- Activated carbon can help with odors, but is not essential if the wildfires are at a distance of greater than 5 miles.
- Chemicals are less of a concern.
