    Airfree - Good or bad?

    Looks like I'm one of the first ones to post here. 

    I've been searching for an air purifier for my kids room and have decided to buy an airfree.  My main concern is viruses, mold, and bacteria.  Do any of you own an Airfree? Does it help? How do you know it's working?  I read the sales pitch and it sounds promising I'm just weary because I can't imagine how a thing that doesn't move air can do much of anything.   Thanks for your input. Alex.

    The airfree units don't move much air and that is the main concern with this type of technology.  Can it effectively filter all of the air in a room within x amounts of hours?  The manufacture claims that it takes a few days but eventually all of the air is filtered. Compare that to UV air purifiers that can filter all of the air 4-7 times an hour in a bedroom.  Yes, the Airfree units are silent, and that's a plus.  Yes, no replacement filters or UV lamps, and that's a plus.  However, do they do a good enough job of sanitizing the air in everyday living conditions when dust and allergens are being kicked up all the time as we move around a room? Probably not. 

    I can't remember the original type of air purifier you bought from us, I think it was a UV induct unit.  How is that working out for you?  Why don't you just run your HVAC fan all the time and change your furnace filter once a month, what we recommend as the best value?
