Hamiltion Beach True Air Purifier

Hair from your pet

Pets such as dogs and cats, usually lose hair. You will notice it a lot if you are the type of person to have a habit of sweeping the floor.

Whenever some hairs had accumulated together, it becomes easier for dander to accumulate in it. If the breed of your dog and cat sheds fur, it will be useful to buy an air purifier.

Pet hair can also cause allergies to some people. An air purifier will help remove these tiny hairs that might be floating in the air.

Dander

Dander is the skin that is shed by your dogs or cats. The size of some pet danders are so small that you wouldn't even be able to see it with your naked eye. Most of the time, they get stuck on carpets, cotton, or curtains.

Whenever it becomes disturbed and had been set off to the air, it takes a long time before it settles into the ground again. The Hamilton Beach True Air Purifier can filter this dander since it uses a HEPA-grade filter that can remove pollutants as small as 0.3 microns.

Pet Saliva

Dogs and cats lick themselves a lot. This is how they clean themselves. However, the proteins in their saliva can cause some people with allergic reactions. When the saliva of cats and dogs had dried up in the fur, and the fur had been shed, an allergic reaction occurs once these tiny hairs had been inhaled. That is why besides having an air purifier at home, it is important to wash your pets.

Dust Bunnies

Whenever cats and dogs shed fur or skin, dust mites feed on them. Pet dander, pet saliva, and hair, all contribute to the growing number of dust mites in your house. Once the number of dust mites grows in your house, it becomes an issue for those people who are really sensitive to such pollutants and micro-organisms. Having an air purifier at home will also help alleviate this problem.

Importance of a HEPA Filter

When looking from a variety of air purifiers regarding which one to use, it is very important to choose one with a HEPA filter. HEPA filter have the highest efficiency among all types of filters. It can filter pollutants as small as 0.3 microns with 99.97% efficiency. It can help reduce the amount of pet dander, dust, dust mites, skin flakes and small hairs from your pets inside the house.

Filtration Process

Since you are looking for a small air purifier that is sold at a reasonable cost while at the same time being able to have the effectivity that you want, then Hamilton Beach TrueAir Purifier is the right product for you. It has a pre-filter that helps filter dust and other particles that are larger than 0.3 microns.

TIt also has a true HEPA-type filter that can remove pollutants and particles that are as small as 0.3 microns. The great thing about the Hamilton Beach TrueAir Purifiers is that both the pre-filter and permanent HEPA filter do not need to be replaced and you can use a vacuum to clean it.

The two filters work as one to remove airborne allergens and other toxic pollutants. These include pollen, dust, hair, pet dander, and such. It also has a carbon filter that could be replaced. It can remove light smells of smoke, chemicals, and pets.

However, the Hamilton Beach TrueAir Purifier is not that as effective against tobacco smokes, ammonia, radon, and cigarette odors compared to other air purifier models. It can filter these but would take longer than high-end air purifiers which usually cost more, in the range of $250. When a review says that its filtration is "subpar", that means that it just takes the air purifier more cycles and longer time to remove the harmful toxins from the air.

How It Works

Whatever position you would want it to choose, the efficiency of the air purifier will not be affected. The fan speed could be adjusted through a dial knob found on the top of the Hamilton Beach TrueAir Purifier.

Here, you can choose from the three-speed setting available. If you want to clean the filter, you just have to snap the front cover to reveal the filters. It also has a filter replacement indicator so you would know if you have to replace the carbon filters.
