Choosing Effective Air Purifiers Amid Rising Winter Pollution in Indian Cities
As winter pollution worsens in Delhi-NCR and other Indian cities, air purifiers are increasingly sought to improve indoor air quality. Experts recommend choosing purifiers with True HEPA filters (H13 or H14) and considering Clean Air Delivery Rate (CADR) for effective coverage. Options range from budget models under Rs 10,000 to advanced units under Rs 20,000. Innovations like clip-on HEPA modules for split ACs offer cost-effective alternatives without increasing electricity use. Placement of purifiers also affects efficiency, with multiple smaller units often outperforming a single large one in spacious rooms.
