Pure Air Always With A Holmes Air Purifier Filter

The most important part of an air purifier is the filter. Proper maintenance of the filter such as cleaning and replacement will ensure the longevity of any filter. While on the subject of filters, the excellent qualities of a Holmes air purifier filter seem to set the standard for all other filters in the air purification market.

One of the most widely recognized products of Holmes are the 99.97% Holmes air purifier filter. This is a HEPA (High Efficiency Particulate Air) filter, which in simple terms means that any pollutant above the size of 0.3 microns gets trapped inside the folds of the filter itself. This ensures that the air that is released into the room is 99.97% pure. These filters are useful in removing particles of smoke (particularly smoke caused by tobacco products such as cigarettes, cigars, pipes and cheroots), dust found in living areas, pollen grain or pet dander.

Holmes also manufactures 99% HEPA filters which will ensure that any particle that is 2 microns or larger, gets trapped making the air 99% pure. This filter needs to be changed periodically to ensure smooth functioning of the air purification system.

Another Holmes air purifier filter is the carbon filter. This filter uses activated carbon to reduce odors that are produced by the presence of pets, cooking or mildew. Very few people understand that the pets they love so much might be the cause of a runny nose and sneezing. It could also be that the unpleasant smell that comes from the dining room is not just because of stale food, but could also be the result of a damp wall on which mildew has begun to form. The Holmes air purifier filter that has activated carbon can ensure that these odors are lessened to a great extent.

The electrostatic filter is one that runs of the principle of static electricity. The static charge that is present on the filter forces particulates to stick to the filter. An easy way to understand the present of static electricity is to run your comb briskly through your hair and a dry day. Ensure that your hair is also dry. You will hear a kind of crackling sound which is an evidence of static electricity. In fact after you remove the comb from your hair and hold it against it once again, you will find your hair moving towards the comb in the same way that iron pieces are attracted to a magnet.

Yet another Holmes air purifier filter is the foam filter which is completely washable. This is a component in one of the basic models offered by Holmes. These filters are very easy to use, since all you need to do is to remove the foam material from your purifier and rinse it out thoroughly. It is a product which will be welcomed by people who do not want to deal with complicated gadgets.
