Air purifier - Help or Hinderance?
    #5695230 - 05/31/06 02:57 PM (17 years, 7 months ago)

While sitting here watching TV, I saw yet another commercial for the Ionic air purifier. (You know who makes em) At any rate, would having that in the same room at any stage of the growth process help or hinder the results? I would think that it would reduce the likelihood of contams.
Thoughts?

I own one of those tower looking ones, the kind with no moving parts. It pulls tons of crap out of the air. I clean it every other day and it's covered with dust each time. So I have to think it does more good than harm. I'm considering getting a hepa filter with fan type, just to keep the air as clean as possible.

sure anything that cleans your air any is a help... certainly not necessary, but not a bad thing to have either... just remember to turn it off prior to inoculation or any open air work, you still want the air to be as still as possible so any crap that hasn't been cleaned out has a chance to settle

nah, ozone generators create ozone :smile:

ionic purifiers are totally safe, there was some news about them creating ozone but whatever... the reason we need ozone generators when we want ozone is because it breaks down so fast, you really need to pump it out in a major way to get any sort of concentration... any ozone as a result of an ionizer is just a tiny trace amount that probably disappears as quickly as its made... and there's constantly trace amounts of ozone in the air you're breathing right now anyway... its like the claims that pretty much everything causes cancer these days :wink:

Yeah they create ozone (O3). Which can be toxic in high amounts, but the benefit is that it disinfects everything in comes in contact with, through oxidation. Also, I have heard it clings to dust and makes it fall to the ground faster thereby cleaning the air, but I can't find clear evidence of that.
