Electrostatic Cleaner

Written by Karen Bates (last updated August 31, 2020)

Cleanliness is an important part of life. Having a clean and organized atmosphere can help us to feel better in general and be more productive at work. When something isn't neat, it can have more of an impact on us than we may realize.

Of course, we can't see everything that needs cleaning, and this makes certain things difficult to keep clean. One good example of this is air. The air you breathe might not be something that you consider needing to be cleaned, but in fact the air can carry harmful contaminants and irritants. No matter how clean an area may seem, it may still be filled with unclean air.

To clean the air in an area, you have a few options. One popular way to help reduce air allergens and pollution is to set up an air purifier, cleaner, or filter in an area. This machine takes in dirty air, filters it to remove particles, and then releases it back into the room. There are several different varieties of these systems available.

One possible option is an electrostatic cleaner. These machines work somewhat like air filters or purifiers, but operate a bit differently. They have two main sections: one for ionizing airborne particles and another for catching and collecting them. This device gives impurities a charge as they pass through. Plates within the machine, which have a charge opposite to the particles, then attract the particles so they stick instead of finding their way back into the air you breathe. These machines can come with washable filtration systems instead of disposable ones.

Electrostatic cleaners come in various forms. You can find ones that are perfect for home or office use that are smaller, or larger units that are great for industrial cleaning needs. These units are ideal for homes where people have allergies, or workplaces where the air can become hazardous and polluted. Electrostatic air cleaners are used in industrial settings often because they can clean the air of contaminants such as smoke. They are capable of filtering very small particles that other air cleaners may miss.

If you are interested in making the air around you safer to breathe, an electrostatic air cleaner can most likely help. Whatever your specific needs are, there is a cleaner that can work for you. Start by searching for different models online and compare prices. Many stores offer these machines and there are various models, so know what you want before you buy.
