Questions, Answered

When is one large purifier better than two smaller ones?

In a single open space, one high CADR unit is simpler to maintain and its air mixes freely. Across separate closed rooms, two correctly sized smaller units clean more air where people actually sit and sleep, because a purifier only treats the room it stands in.

Why do large room claims vary so much between brands?

Because the air change assumption behind them varies. The same machine can be described as covering a room at one air change per hour or a room a quarter of the size at the recommended rate. This guide prints both figures from each maker, labelled, so the comparison stays honest.
