AllerAir Purifiers

Air Purifiers are becoming more and more commonplace. Not just in the home, but also in the office and public buildings. They are great for eliminating bacteria, allergens, lingering odors and mold from the air. The air you breathe will be considerably cleaner, keeping you healthier and breathing easier throughout the day. Yet choosing the right one can be a bit daunting, especially if you know very little about them. It is always important to pick an item that best suits you to avoid buyers remorse. Our products staff understands that and have taken the time to research, test and review products that you might find useful.

AllerAir is a trusted company that has been producing heavy duty and reliable air purifiers for quite a while now. AllerAir has built quite a name for themselves based on their effectiveness and reliability. They offer a variety of models and styles to help you breathe easier throughout the day. All AllerAir models use a 4 phase filtering system. They begin with a prefilter to trap larger dust particles. The prefilter is easy to remove and clean. It acts to stop larger particles such as dust and lint from causing damage to the other 3 filters. After the prefilter comes the mass activated carbon bed or Mac-B filter that is specifically designed to adsorbs gases and odors. The Mac-B carbon filter has anywhere from 7 to 160 pounds of carbon designed to trap 90% of gases and odors that pass through it. Best of all, it has an extremely large life span before the filter needs to be replaced. Following the MAC-B filter are 2 anti-microbial filters that kill airborne microbes that pass through them. This eliminates any potential germs that could affect your breathing and health. The final filter is a true HEPA filter designed to trap what is left over. Designed by the Atomic Energy Commission to stop radio active particles, HEPA filters capture 99.97% of all particles all the way down to 0.3 microns, leaving your air fresh and pure.

Another major difference with AllerAir air purifiers versus other air purifiers is their use of activated carbon. Using more amounts of carbon then other units on the market, these carbon filters have been treated with oxygen to open up millions of tiny pores between the carbon atoms. There is so much carbon that one pound of these activated carbon filters has a surface of 60 to 150 acres. Activated carbon is used in military gas masks to can keep military personal safe from poisonous gasses. Their adsorption is also perfect to trap stinky smells. These filters can last anywhere between 9-24 months.

What We Recommend



One of the best values for an AllerAir product is the Air Tube Jr Air Purifier by Allerair for allergies. Portable and easy to maneuver this 10 pound air purifier is designed to travel wherever you need it and clean the air up to 100 square feet. It has four pounds of active carbon and a HEPA filter that you will reap the benefits from. Very quiet in use, the perforated body enhances air intake while the metal casing stops any off gassing. There is no off gassing like some other air purifiers have. Off gassing is the act of having odor leak from poorly sealed ducts during the purification process. Each filter has a 1 year life span making sure you are getting the most of your money. You will defiantly notice a difference in your air if not your health after purchasing one of these.
