The air cleaner for the kitchen is a special device that quickly and effectively eliminates unpleasant odors in the room. Today you can purchase various models of air purifiers with a wide variety of functions.
Cooker hood
This is a device with special fans that expel air, and with it bad smells through tubular air ducts to the street. The installation of any hood provides for a competent arrangement of the path of the air. The smoother it is, the more efficient the device will work. In the case of a curved arrangement of the outlet pipes, the air flow, or rather its power, will be weak. And the more various irregularities in these pipes, the less quality the hood works.
Recirculation air purifiers
Such air purifiers for the kitchen usually have several (sometimes one) filters that clean the air from unpleasant odors. The main difference between these devices from the hood is their ability to return purified air back to the room. In addition, such devices provide for the use of several filters at once: coal and conventional mechanical, which is necessary for filtering air from various large suspensions.
The main disadvantage of air purifiers for a kitchen of this type is the high cost and cost of consumables, that is, special filters. The latter need to be changed approximately every few months (depending on the specific model of the device).
So what to choose?
In order to determine the most suitable type of air purifier for the kitchen, first of all, carefully analyze all the features of the room where you want to install it. If installing an air duct in your kitchen requires a large amount of expenses for paying specialists, as well as for related materials, plus everything else, the path for the air mass to exit cannot be made even and holes in several walls will be required, the best option for you in this case is recirculation air cleaner.
In addition, before buying such an apparatus, be sure to take measurements of your own stove, over which it will be located.
Type of mount
Air purifiers for the kitchen can also differ among themselves and in the type of fastening:
1. Hanging hoods are installed directly above the stove and attached to the furniture.
2. Built-in - fastened or built into kitchen furniture and completely merge with it. For example, you can buy air purifiers for the kitchen, made in the same style with furniture, then they will become almost invisible to the eye.
3. Dome or fireplace - refer to the output type and remind in their form chimneys of fireplaces, and most importantly, fit perfectly into almost any interior.
And of course, it is best to choose air purifiers for the kitchen only from trusted manufacturers who have proven themselves in our country.
