Find Out Why Air Purifiers with Pre-Filter Are Better

Prolongs the Life of the Air Filter and the Air Purifier Itself

why air purifiers with pre-filter are better One of the reasons why air purifiers with pre-filter are thought to be better is because the pre-filter catches the larger particles of pollutants, which actually helps to extend the life of the air filter by several months at the least.

In addition, pre-filters are often inexpensive, and can be easily cleaned, which keeps the air purifier functioning at its best.

It also helps to save money as the filters can be expensive to replace, so increasing the life of the filter can add to up to big dollars over the course of 3 to 5 years.

Moreover, because the pre-filter collects large particles such as cat hair and the such that can gum up the inside of the air purifier itself.

Pre-filters also prolong the life and functionality of the appliance itself by helping to prevent dust, dirt, and other large particles from reaching the fan or the motor of the air purifier.

May Help to Reduce or Eliminate Some Odors

Some pre-filters, such as carbon pre-filters can actually help to absorb some of the odors from your air.

While most pre-filters can’t remove all odors from all sources, they can be effective in removing or at least reducing some odors such as cooking odors, and even cat or dog odors.

You simply have cleaner overall air when both pollutants and odors are reduced in your living environment.

You do need to follow all the maintenance directions for keeping the pre-filter in good conditions and ensure that it is changed as often as needed.

Cleaning and changing the pre-filter normally takes little time or effort and does improve the overall function and life of your air purifier.
