Clean and Healthy Air With the Right Air Purifier

Along with the awareness of the importance of air quality for health, the existence of air purifiers is increasingly getting a place for more people. The function of the air purifier as an air purifier is also growing with the demands. Starting from its basic function of cleaning the air circulation in the room from harmful micro particles (PM 2.5 or Particulate Matter measuring 2.5 microns), the presence of a hepa filter in the air purifier has become excellent because of its ability to clean viruses and bacteria floating in the air.

Especially when the hepa filter in the air purifier was supported by the Instruction of the Minister of Home Affairs (Inmendagri) Number 15 of 2021 concerning the Emergency PPKM for the COVID-19 Java-Bali Region which was signed by Minister of Home Affairs Tito Karnavian on July 2, 2021 last year. This makes various brands of air purifiers appear by offering as hepa air purifiers.

Of the various things offered, there are several important things that need to be considered in choosing the best air purifier for your home needs. "In addition to the completeness of the filter, the cleaning capacity of the air purifier is an important factor to ensure this air purifier works optimally for the home," said Alexander Eko Wibowo, Assistant General Manager Sales of PT Daikin Airconditioning Indonesia.

He further stated that the completeness of the air purifier filter is related to the function of the air purifier. With the way the air purifier works by sucking the air in the room and then cleaning it before blowing it back into the room, the air purifier filtration system deserves a major concern. With different types of harmful particles in the air, you can observe the various filters in the air purifiers on offer.

In addition to the many layers of filtration, pay attention to how easy it is to maintain or clean. Neglecting to pay attention to this can result in the possible high costs incurred when you have to repeatedly replace the air purifier filter.

Speaking of this filter, the DAIKIN air purifier with STREAMER technology was made with this in mind. In addition to the deodorization filter which filters out unpleasant odors that do not need to be replaced, the use of an electrostatic hepa filter in this home air purifier has a service life of up to ten years.

The word electrostatic in its name refers to the continuous flow of static electricity in this filter net, making it more effective to trap various particles harmful to health. However, the age of the DAIKIN air purifier hepa filter is more durable, due to its collaboration with STREAMER technology.

In the form of a stable emitted plasma emitting radiation that generates high-speed electrons, this capability enables the release of STREAMER to decompose viruses, odors, bacteria and indoor air pollutants such as formaldehyde. The power of decomposition is equivalent to the heat energy of 100,000°C.

“It not only captures but also decomposes these harmful particles. This is to ensure that the air coming out of the air purifier is really clean, as well as extending the life of the hepa filter," said Alex. With a deodorizing filter that does not need to be replaced and a hepa filter that can last up to ten years, according to Alex, it is an advantage for users because there is no need for additional costs in the long term.

The second concern in choosing an air purifier is its cleaning capacity. Tempted by the price of an air purifier, it can make you forget this factor. The work of the air purifier which continuously cleans the air circulation in the room, makes its effectiveness very dependent on the area of ​​the room.

"The choice of the wrong cleaning capacity, too small for example, will make the air purifier's work in cleaning the air in the room not optimal," said Alex again. According to him, even though it is the same for rooms or rooms in the house, it does not mean that all air purifiers have the same cleaning capacity. This is why prospective users must critically seek information, including from salespeople in stores, regarding the capacity of the room area compared to the cleaning capacity of the air purifier.

For the DAIKIN air purifier with its own STREAMER technology, it is available in four air purifier models with different air cleaning capacities. For large spaces, such as living rooms, for example, the DAIKIN air purifier for a room area of ​​41 square meters can be selected from two available air purifier models, namely MCK55TVM complete with humidity control function and MC55UVM.

Meanwhile, for a room with an area of ​​31 square meters, such as the main bedroom, for example, MC40UVM can be the choice. Especially for even smaller spaces, DAIKIN provides a small air purifier with a room cleaning capacity of 23 square meters through the MC30YVM model.

"The completeness of the filter with the support of STREAMER technology which is more effective in cleaning while extending the life of the filter as well as the availability of models for various room capacities, makes the DAIKIN air purifier the right choice as an air purifier for Indonesian families," said Alex.
