In addition to eliminating allergens and pollutants, including chemicals from smoke, our purifiers step up to the plate during the colder months to neutralize viruses like the common cold and dispatching odors.
With so many Coway models to choose from, finding the right purifier for your needs can be tricky, especially on Black Friday when deals and advertisements flood the market. In this blog, we cover what you need to know before investing in an air purifier and what you should consider so you can find the optimal model to create a clean indoor environment wherever you need it, whether that be in an apartment, workplace, dorm room, or elsewhere.
What You Need to Know Before Investing in a Black Friday Air Purifier Deal
Don’t be fooled by similarity in appearance, each Coway air purifier model has unique features that suit that model to certain uses. While some are more purpose-built than others, the fact of the matter is that matching your new air purifier to the parameters of your current needs is crucial to getting the most out of your investment.
Size of Space
Selecting the appropriately sized air purifier for your space ensures the greatest efficiency and optimizes performance. Air purifiers are built to cleanse the air in a space with a certain size; if you choose a model that covers too little, you won’t get proper filtration and circulation, which undercuts the value of the purifier in the first place. On the other hand, if you opt for a purifier that’s too powerful for your space, you will end up needlessly running it and wasting energy. Also, smaller air purifiers tend to be quieter.
Energy Efficiency
Because air purifiers often run for extended periods, or even all the time, make sure to consider the efficiency of your model, and what the ongoing operating costs may be. This is another reason why matching the size of your purifier to the size of your space is important - no one wants to spend more on already expensive energy than they have to. Keep an eye out for purifiers that bear the Energy Star logo, like all Airmega products.
Filtration System
Although all Coway air purifiers have advanced multi-layered filtration technology, some models are better oriented towards unique needs than others. For example, the Airmega AP-1512HH Mighty features a four-stage filtration process that includes a prefilter to catch things like pet hair and dust mites, a carbon filter to stop odors, a HEPA filter to remove pollutants, bacteria and other irritants from the air, and finally a vital ionizer to neutralize ultra-fine particles that may have made it through the HEPA stage. The Airmega 250, on the other hand, has a pre-filter and then a Max2 Filter, combining one activated carbon filter and Green True HEPA™ Filter. Make sure to consider what you want to get out of your purifier, whether it be allergen removal. virus neutralization, or something else entirely.
