Best Pet Air Purifiers-4 Reasons Why Should Choose One Without A Washable Filter - By: Debbie Davis

If you love a pet enough to share your home and your life, an air purifier designed with pets in mind is essential for removing hair, dander, and odor.

Many pet owners buy a purifier that is seemingly a good deal only to get it home and find that the maintenance of the filter, and therefore the effectiveness of the purifier, is based on regular filter washing. Even though this means a lower outlay of cash initially, in the long run it is more expensive, and here are 5 reason why.

1. Having a pet and taking care of it well requires a lot of love, energy, and time. Removing the filter and washing once a week, or even twice a month takes valuable time away from caring for your pet, enjoying daily activities, routines, and hobbies.

With most of us living such busy lifestyles, even if we had extra time, few of us would want to have to do this maintenance, and particularly with such regularity.

2. Washing a filter full of pollutants that you have spent money to collect, will release those very contaminants into the air again, thus creating a cycle that is hard to break and does little to keep the indoor air quality high for you, your family, or your pet.

3. Maintenance means down time from the continuous filtration that is a must to keep the pollutants level low. This gives the airborne pollutants that you are most concerned about time to build up in your air. If this process calls for drying time it adds additional down time which means a drop in your indoor air quality.

4. And where is the best place to wash the filter? Cleaning the filters indoors means allowing pollutants to go free into the air again. So if someone suffers from allergy or asthma and the filter is designed to remove the triggers from the air, cleaning it may get them off the filter, but back into the air again and trigger the very symptoms that you were trying to alleviate.

And if you do it outside and it's hot, cold, windy or some combination, it still does not make for an experience that you'll look forward to doing again next time.

The best kind of air purifier for pets is one that can remove pet urine odor and use HEPA (high efficiency particle arresting) filtration for particulates such as hair and dander down to .3 microns, and can do so 24 hours a day every day without ever having to be washed, sprayed, or recharged.
