Top 10 Active Air Purifiers
Top 10 Air Purifiers
What is an Active Air Cleaner?
Active Air Purifiers are distinct from HEPA and other Filter based purifiers because they do not use filtration. They rely on air purification processes that clean the air of particles, odors, gases, and bacteria in the environment. They create reactions in the air throughout the area that needs to be cleaned that take care of the pollution. They do this without having to use filters, making them cost effective and relatively low maintenance. These are the Top 10 Active Purifiers!
