Is The Ionic Breeze Air Purifier The Right Choice?

Ionic Breeze air purifier products are one possible solution to the problem of air which can at best make you feel that something is not quite right, and which at worse can aggravate allergic symptoms and leave you feeling unable to continue with your normal life. There has been a lot of media coverage of poor air quality in recent years, but it has tended to concentrate on the air pollution caused by factors in the outside world. The pollutants which are regularly causing problems in the indoor environment are being consistently overlooked, yet the air quality inside most buildings is even poorer than the air quality outside.

If you are new to realizing how poor the air quality is in your home or office you may need to do a bit of research before making a final choice of what to do about it. In rare cases, there may not even be any need to do anything, as there are plants which can absorb most of the toxins from the air. If you have these in your home, and there is plenty of ventilation and no obvious risk factor, you may not need to introduce any other protection. These cases are rare, and the vast majority of homes will benefit from an air purification system and possibly an ionizer as well.

It is important to make sure that the unit you buy is both effective and suitable for your needs. If you study the market in air purifiers, you will find that there are different types, some of which are surrounded in controversy. This is never more the case than it is with air purifiers which incorporate an ionic ionizing system as well as their core activity. There is no government standard to match the HEPA standard which covers air purifiers designed to filter out 99% of all known particles above .3 microns.

In fact, there has never been a conclusive study carried out into the effects of the Ionic Breeze air purifier and other ionic products. It is known that ozone is dangerous to human tissue if it is highly concentrated, and there must be a suspicion that constant exposure to lower levels may also be detrimental to health in some way, but this is only conjecture. For now, it is safe to say that there is no definitive answer one way or the other, and that anyone who uses an ozone producing ionizer or purifier does so at their own risk.

As far as the efficiency of the unit is concerned, it is worth remembering that the manufacturers of the Ionic Breeze unit tried unsuccessfully to sue the Consumer's Union after it gave the product a poor rating. The unit was designated a “fail” after the measurements of how much air was filtered did not match up to the expected standards. The argument from the manufacturers was that the review was skewed and failed to take into account other features of the product. An independent observer may well question why factors such as continuous operation and ease of cleaning should be considered important of the unit does not do what it is designed to do in the first place.

The story of this case concerning the Ionic Breeze air purifier is easily found on the Internet, as are independent reviews from buyers of the unit. Whatever you decide to do in the final analysis it is going to be well worth your while carrying out as much research as you can. There are many different models of air purifier, and many of them have completely different features from the Ionic Breeze air purifier.
