Air Purifier Reviews: Airpura Air Purifiers - A Green Company

"Green Living" is gaining popularity, as more people understand the value of conducting their lives with an all-encompassing awareness of the earth and all its processes. Green living includes making choices that takes into account how it will impact the environment and all living things within it, and by minimizing one's "ecological footprints," ecologically-minded people hope to preserve the earth for future generations of human beings and other forms of life. In fact, as a testament to green living, shortly after the September 11 attacks, an environmental engineer from New York proposed using plants as a natural way to help improve air quality in a New York area high school, and 1,000 plants were subsequently donated from the Florida Nursery and Grower's Association.

However, before you resort to purchasing a nursery full of plants in an attempt to clean your air, one air purifier manufacturer has pledged to design and manufacturer air purifiers that are not only effective, but good for the environment as well.

Conscious of its role as an environmental company from the beginning, Airpura has been determined to operate in the greenest way possible, and their objectives have been to reduce waste and carbon emissions; to recycle materials used in the production and facilitation of Airpura products at the end of their useful life; and to reuse whenever possible.

Even Airpura's design choices are informed by green considerations, and the company strives to obtain the most inert components with the smallest environmental footprint possible, while at the same time, creating an air purifier that delivers unparalleled premium filtration performance. Here are some of the other standout "green" features Airpura air purifiers have to offer:

1. Airpura air purifiers such as the C600 (for chemicals) utilize 560 cfm backward curved motorized impellers which deliver greater airflow when compared to other competing air purifiers, while at the same time, weighing less that half of their older motor/shaft/blower wheel configurations.
2. Airpura air purifiers are PCB free, and no lead is used in soldering in the speed control.
3. The Airpura 600 series, which includes the C600, I600 (for medical settings), T600 (for tobacco smoke), and R600 (all-purpose air purifying), is free of any plastic, silicone, rubber, adhesives, or bonding agents which may off gas chemical vapors and cause harm to the environment.
4. The Airpura 600 series carbon containers use rivet fastening rather than spot welding, as spot welding has been found to use more energy and give off particles, chemicals, and greenhouse gases.
5. Airpura air purifiers such as H600 (for allergies) have all-metal housing, and avoid plastic, resulting in a more ecologically sound product, with 93% of the air purifier being recyclable.

With a wide product line geared towards any air purification problem, it's clear that the air purification industry belongs to companies such as Airpura, which can offer advanced products while at the same time, operating within the boundaries of a renewable resource.
