What’s the best air purifier for a pet owner?
Pets are a part of your family
Many of us consider our pets to be an integral part of our families, and they give us a great deal of love and comfort. As pet owners, we must also look after the health of the entire family, you may have found that your pets tend to shed, bring in allergens from outside, and cause unwanted odours. General cleaning and vacuuming can help, but what about what’s in the air? Using an air purifier like Airmega is the best way to control these pollutants.
When you have family members or guests that suffer from pet allergies, it's important to keep the home environment as clean as possible, which is why so many pet owners turn to air purifiers.
Use a HEPA filter
High Efficiency Particulate Air filters, also referred to as HEPA filters, are designed to get rid of all particles in the air that are 0.3 micrometers* or larger in diameter—small enough to catch pet dander and odour-causing material. Each model of Airmega uses this type of filter, and it’s the best choice for pet owners. They may even help reduce symptoms for anyone in the home who suffers from pet allergies.
Choosing the right coverage
Some Airmega models are for large, open living spaces, and others are for intimate spaces, and others still are in between somewhere. If your pet roams around a large living space, you may want to consider an Airmega 400 or Airmega 300. For medium-sized bedrooms or offices, you could purchase an Airmega 200M. For more options, every Airmega model is listed with its recommended square footage.
Change the filters on time.
With pets that shed an excessive amount of fur, you’ll want to make sure to change your certified Coway filters on time. Indicator lights on the Airmega make it easy to know when it’s appropriate to clean or replace filters. Don't wait until you start sneezing to put in new, clean filters.
Take care of the whole family
Breathing clean air is a benefit to everyone’s health, including your pet’s. When shopping for an air purifier, remember it’s not just an investment in your home—it’s an investment in your whole family.
*Based on the True HEPA filter media standard. The actual performance will be determined by indoor air quality and operation of the unit.
