There are probably just as many air purifiers for cat hair on the market as your cat has hairs. So how do you know which cleaner is really going to be the most effective without spending a lot money on ones that don’t work? Here are 7 answers to frequently asked questions that will help you bring home the most effective air purifier for cat hair.
1. Is a purifier that can only run for part of the day effective? Cat hair is sent airborne constantly and effective filtration needs to be continuous. Running the cleaner then shutting it off allows hair to build up in the air which means you’re breathing it and seeing it in the air. The whole purpose of a cleaner is to reduce the amount of cat hair in the air forever. Choose a cleaner that can run 24 hours.
2. Are there cleaners that can operate safely 24 hours a day? Yes there are. A cleaner that has a high capacitor motor is built to run safely, efficiently, and economically 24 hours every day. This keeps the amount of cat hair low all the time, and you will never have to walk into your home where the air is thick with cat hair again.
3. Is plastic housing safe? If your purifier is designed to run 24 hours a day but it is plastic, the motor heat will often cause plastic to heat up and off gas fumes into your air. Fumes from the plastic make your air quality worse than it was, and you don’t want to pay money to make the air worse. Choose something other than plastic housing.
4. Why is powder coated steel casing a better choice? Steel does not off gas fumes and is a safer choice for a purifier whose motor will allow 24 hour operation. A powder coated surface is safe for your cat and makes it all but impossible for it to chew or break off pieces that might cause choking or expose sharp edges.
5. Is a HEPA filter necessary to remove cat hair? If you are to effectively remove hair, and more importantly the dander that is the allergen for most people with cats, a high efficiency particle arresting (or HEPA) filter is crucial. This filter will remove hair and dander as small as .3 microns with 99.97% efficiency. This is the same technology that the medical industry uses in hospitals to insure clean air.
6. Do pre-filters make a difference? Yes they do. These are filters that are the first line of defense and trap large and medium size particles. As such they prevent the main filter (the HEPA) from filling up so quickly. An air purifier with pre-filters will need far fewer filter changes than one without them. So look for pre-filters as a feature that will save you time, and money.
7. What is the best indication that a purifier will be effective? The length of the warranty is probably the single best indicator. The longer the warranty the more longevity you can expect to receive from your purifier. A lengthy warranty of 5 years indicates the manufacture is confident that they have made an air purifier for cat hair that is effective and will clear the air of cat hair for a very long time.
