air cleaners

Indoor pollution removers

Air cleaners are devices that remove pollutants, allergens, or particles from indoor air.

The term covers everything from portable room units with HEPA filters to whole-house systems integrated into HVAC.

We bought air cleaners for the bedrooms during wildfire season.

Also called air purifiers.
