The home space has changed its character in recent months. It is not only a quiet haven where we rest after returning from work, but a place where we conduct our entire professional and private life. This is where we work, we participate in on-line conferences, our children learn remotely, and here we organize home cinema screenings instead of visiting cultural institutions. Here we also rest and spend our days off and holidays. In this situation, it seems an absolute necessity to care for the best condition of this place. It is worth ensuring that this basic space for us allows us to function in the best condition and he alth.
Is diet, supplementation and condition enhancement alone enough? Unfortunately, not in every area. Playing sports strengthens our immunity. But it is only one element in the fight for our best welfare. As scientists are alarming - air quality is of great importance. Let's take a look at what in our body causes a long stay in a place characterized by unhe althy air.
- Respiratory system ailments - trouble breathing, troublesome cough, asthma, inflammation of the lower and upper respiratory tract.
- Diseases of the circulatory system and the central nervous system.
- Decrease in immunity.
- Neoplastic changes caused by the chronic accumulation of pollutants in our body.
Knowledge about it translates into the growing interest of consumers and the corresponding increasingly richer market offer of air purifiers, whose task is to provide us with high quality air in the place where the device works.
The demand is matched by the supply and today almost every manufacturer of electronics or household appliances introduces humidifiers or air purifiers to its offer. And while it is true that most will be pleasantly moisturizing the space, this is often not the same as removing viruses, harmful bacteria, mites, mold or allergens by devices.
There is, however, a solution that works effectively in this area, at the level of over 99%. It'sPlasmacluster technology . Friendly toenvironment, effectively removes allergens, dust mites, viruses, batteries, microbes, neutralizes odors. What is its neutral influence on the environment? Purification with Plasmacluster ions is carried out at the biological-chemical level. The reactions that take place use only the forces of nature, without the interference of synthetic substances.
For years, its effectiveness has been tested by scientific institutes, research centers and scientists all over the world. Usually, it is also tested and analyzed during an epidemic, the emergence of new viruses, and then the topic of testing this technology for the new situation comes back. And so, recent research has confirmed that it can remove E.coli bacteria, avian influenza virus, polio virus and others from the room (effect after 14 minutes in an airtight test space of 25 m³ for an air purifier equipped with a Plasmacluster HD25000 ion generator).
Plasmcluster is present in Sharp air purifiers. It is this Japanese brand that patented this technology. The basis of its operation is the simultaneous emission of positive and negative ions.
What is the effectiveness of this method? Positive and negative ions, made of water molecules, encountering pollution molecules on their way. They surround them and, through their mechanism of action, inhibit their development. Positive and negative ions carry an electric charge, so they are attracted to allergens and other air pollutants that are either positively or negatively charged. The newly formed harmless particles fall to the ground, thus not floating in the air we breathe. The particles to which Plasmacluster ions have attached themselves are now harmless and too heavy to float in the air. When they fall off, we can easily remove them during regular cleaning.
Ions are emitted by the ion generator in the number of 7,000 or 25,000 per cm3. The latest generation air purifiers available in Poland have an ion generator with a capacity of 25,000 per cm3.
It is important because the effectiveness of inhibiting the development of harmful particles depends on two variables - the size of the room and the concentration of ions per 1cm3.
Research shows that from a room with an area of 25 m2, a device equipped with a 25,000 ion generator removes mold in 14 minutes, a device with a power of 7,000 ions in as much as 49 minutes. Viruses are removed in 9 minutes (25,000 ion generator) and 18 minutes with 7,000 ion generator respectively. The difference between allergen removal efficiency is even more significant. This is respectively 14 minutes in the case of the highestion generator up to 51 minutes in the case of the more popular ion generator with a capacity of 7,000 ions per cm3.
The market is still dominated by air purifiers with a 7000 ion generator. However, they are slowly being dethroned by more technologically advanced models with High-Density 25,000. Importantly, they are available in various price options and parameters.
The smallest in size, but extremely effective, is theUJ-GC20E ion generator by Sharp . This portable device, thanks to the Plasmacluster technology, effectively reduces allergenic particles and air pollution, and removes unpleasant odors, e.g. of cigarette smoke. The small size and shape similar to the shape of a thermal mug make the device perfect for a car, home wardrobe or desk at work. Three color versions (black, gold and pink) fit perfectly into the surroundings. To turn on the generator, all you need to do is connect it with the USB cable. At home, larger devices will work great - you can choose from those with or without the humidifying function.
In the latest series of air purifiersSharp FP-Jwe find the modelFPJ-60EU-WandFPJ-80EU- W . The first is designed for an area of 48 sq m, and the second one for as much as 62 sq m. The devices constantly monitor the air quality in the room, selecting the best operating parameters. Purifiers equipped with dust, odor and light intensity sensors neutralize odors and remove visible impurities, but also neutralize viruses, allergenic particles, mold and fungus spores smaller than 0.3 microns.
The last model equipped with the highest High Density 25,000 ion generator is Sharp's flagship air purifier with humidification -model KI-G75EU-W . The device is distinguished by an interesting design and powerful possibilities. A great convenience is the function of monitoring the temperature and humidity in the room.
How does the purifier work? Maintenance-free - just choose the right mode. The most convenient is the Auto Mode, in which the purifier operates with a set fan speed and a degree of humidification based on data collected from the environment. This process is controlled on the basis of the amount of dirt and odors, temperature and air humidity in the room. In addition, the motion sensor detects the presence of people in the room and works with the light sensor, automatically switching the device to energy saving mode. A new feature is the automatic functionpre-filter cleaning. It is he who is the first barrier to all types of pollution. Its cleanliness therefore affects the condition and performance of the device. The process takes 8 minutes and takes place every 48 hours. Air cleaning is suspended during this time. A blinking icon indicates that automatic cleaning has started. Another new solution is the SWING option, i.e. automatic and manual setting of the airflow direction. The ion generator is the dot above I.
Plasmacluster ions have a positive effect on improving the condition of the skin. High-density Plasmacluster ions (25,000 ions / cm³) have been studied to protect the skin from drying out and improve its elasticity. They are also effective in reducing excess sebum, which causes an undesirable oily shine on the skin.
