Portable Pet Air Purifiers---5 Reasons Every Pet Owner Needs At Least One

Living with a warm-blooded pet is a lot of fun. But they also add a dimension of particles and odor that normally would not be present in your home. Fortunately, having a pet no longer means you have to choose between a home that looks and smells clean and one that doesn't. Here are 5 important reasons that you need an air purifier that is specifically designed with you and your pets in mind.

Keeps Your Home Looking Good---It can get really tiring to have to do a major clean up whenever company is coming. Filtering the air 24 hours a day means that your home is being cleaned continually which ultimately means there is less hair and dander in the air.

Allowing filtration to keep the particle levels low all the time means there is less to fall out of the air onto furniture and floors. And while no cleaner will pick up particles once they are on the floor, it will go a long way towards drastically reducing what you will need to wipe, dust, vacuum, or mop away.

Less Work For You---Not only will filtering the air literally clear the air, but choosing a purifier that takes care of you rather than you having to constantly do maintenance on it is a real bonus. To make sure that a cleaner will not require constant attention from you, look for several pre-filters, a filter with at least a 5-year life, and a unit that does not need you to stop the unit for maintenance.

Having all of these features will mean that you have found a unit that will really operate effortlessly without soaking up your spare time with washing, charging, or spraying the filters. You will also probably be able to avoid needing a second job to pay for unexpected expenses of filter replacements!

Fresh Smell---Even the best pets can make mistakes. What can I say, it happens. With a cleaner that is equipped with an enhanced carbon to absorb odors as well as urine odor, you can relax a little more when there is an accident because whether you are there or not, able to find it or not, the ammonia smell is being filtered continually. So you, your family, and friends stand a better chance of walking into a fresh smelling home.

Healthy Benefits----A cleaner with a HEPA or high efficiency particle arresting filter is what is needed to adequately handle dander that is microscopic in size. By definition this type of filter must be able to remove 99,997 out of every 10,000 particles that are .3 microns in size or larger. This is a healthy technology (hospitals use it) and produces only fresh air. That means it produces zero ozone and zero ionized particles both of which are controversial in terms of their effectiveness and their effects on the health of people and animals.

The good news is that HEPA filtration does not care about the source of the particles. So it will remove more normal household pollutants such as dust, dust mites, mold and mildew spores, and seasonal pollen. This is an excellent way to reduce symptoms for those who suffer with respiratory conditions such as allergies and asthma.

Is Flexible---Most cleaners work by pulling the air that is closest to it and unit that is light enough to move close to the problem area is a winner. Choosing a cleaner that has 360 degree intake means that for everyday placement you can move it as close as 6 inches to any surface. The benefit to you is that it can operate effectively without being in the center of the room.

You can also take it wherever your pet goes, whether that's into the next room or with you across the country. That way you always know that effective filtration is as close as the nearest outlet.
