When it comes to using an air purifier, it is essential to keep doors and windows closed. This is because a stream of air or an open door can cause unfiltered air to enter a room faster than the purifier can absorb it. Smart Air, a social enterprise certified by B-Corp, offers simple and practical air purifiers and provides free training to protect people from the harm of air pollution. To do this, they use the supercharged Smart Air Blast, which cleans up to 130 m2. Real-world tests have shown that, even without an air purifier, simply keeping doors and windows closed can reduce particulate pollution levels by 50% compared to outdoor air levels. The impact of having the window open on indoor air pollution levels will be more evident when outdoor air is hazardous.
To test this, CK chose two days when outdoor air pollution was severe (February 14 and 15). To keep the reference pollution level constant in all tests, CK opened the window to let in outside air (and outdoor air pollution) until the particulate pollution was the same as outside. But the more practical question is if one has to keep a window open for some other reason, will a purifier still work? Will it have a significant effect? For some people, keeping windows open is a necessity. The answer is yes. An air purifier can still work with a window open, but it will not be as effective as when all doors and windows are closed.
This is because the purifier will not be able to filter out all of the pollutants that enter through the open window. Therefore, it is best to keep all doors and windows closed when using an air purifier for maximum efficiency. The benefits of keeping doors and windows closed when using an air purifier are numerous. Not only does this ensure that all of the pollutants are filtered out, but it also helps maintain indoor air quality at safe levels. Even if one has to keep a window open for some other reason, an air purifier can still work but it will not be as effective as when all doors and windows are closed. In conclusion, keeping doors and windows closed when using an air purifier is essential for optimal performance.
This will ensure that all of the pollutants are filtered out and that indoor air quality remains safe. Even if one has to keep a window open for some other reason, an air purifier can still work but it will not be as effective as when all doors and windows are closed.
