Installation of Air Purifier
Portable air purifiers are available in home improvement stores and online and can be installed easily by plugging them in an electrical outlet. Select the air purifier that is right for the size of the room you’ll be placing it. Ideal for bedrooms, dens, or family rooms, wherever you spend most of your time.
A whole-home air purifier needs professional installation by an HVAC company. These types of air purifiers use either filter media or Ultraviolet lights, need direct plumbing connection, and will work in conjunction with your HVAC system.
Maintenance Tips of Air Purification
A whole-home air purifier that uses a filter to keep the most efficiency, the filter should be replaced on a regular schedule between six to twelve months. Air purification works very well with disinfection treatment. Check the owner’s manual for the manufacturer’s recommendations and instructions on how to change the filter.
Use only filters recommended for the brand and model of air purifier you purchase. The filters on most portable air purifiers are reusable and need to be hand-washed, following the instructions and recommendations in the owner’s manual.
If you choose an air purifier with a UV light, you can expect a lifespan between one year and three years. These can be changed during the routine system inspection and tune-up by a professional HVAC technician.

To clean the air in your home, a portable air purifier is inexpensive, but a whole-home air purifier system is more efficient. Place them where you want them, plug them in and you’re done. No professional installation is needed.
