Ionizer Air Purifiers: What to Look For, What to Avoid

Using ions to improve air quality has been around for quite a while. Many air purifier companies started out creating ionic air purifiers that only produced ions, no filters, and many of them released ozone as the main ion type. Ozone, although useful for other things and in various alternative medicine treatments, isn’t good to breathe. 

So while the ozone ions did cause particles to become charged in a way that made many particles clump together and fall out of the air, it provided this benefit at a cost of a variety of respiratory issues, increased asthma symptoms and more. When this was realized, companies created ionizer air filters that released healthy OH- negative ions that had the positive effects of ions, but without the bad.

First of all, if you’re looking for a negative air ionizer purifier, make sure it only releases OH- or hydroxyl ions, not ozone. Some companies then added quality HEPA filters to their ionic air cleaners, which makes them much more effective at cleaning the air as particles clumped together get trapped more easily by a particle filter. Negative ion air purifiers also provide the benefit of disinfecting the air as well as dinsintegrating many VOC’s present in homes and offices. 

Add a quality carbon filter to the unit that has ions and HEPA, and you’ve got a powerful air cleaner that really removes pollutants well, and doesn’t just make them fall to the ground where they can be kicked and circulated again. (Blueair is a good example of an air cleaner that offers ions, HEPA and carbon).
