Why Choose Electrostatic Filter for your Home
PRO’S

The Electrostatic Air Cleaning Process
The Electrostatic method used to clean the air uses a 3 stage filtering system. In the first stage, the dirty air passes through the particle ionizer. Here the air pollution in the air is given a negative charge. The second stage is a series of collection plates. The dirty air particles are attracted to the plates and are trapped there until they are removed when the filter is washed. In the third stage the cleaned air passes through a activated carbon filter where odors and VOCs are removed by adsorption.
Why Choose HEPA Filters for your Home
PRO’S
- HEPA filters don’t have to be washed, they change out quickly
- HEPA Filters captures 99.97% of all indoor pollutants
- HEPA Filters produce no Ozone
- LakeAir True HEPA filters can capture 99.99% of COVID
CON’S
- HEPA filters need to be replaced every year an extra cost of $175.00
- Discarded HEPA filters add toxic waste to landfills
- HEPA Filters produce a large pressure drop which lowers air flow
How Air Filters Trap dirt.
Filters work in an air purifier in 3 ways. These methods of trapping dirt particles are called mechanical methods. The first method is impaction. When a pollutant tries to go through the tight weave of a filter it is trapped. The second method is interception: When a dirt particle gets close enough to a filter fiber it is caught and trapped. The third mechanical method is diffusion.. In a filter, diffusion causes the smaller particle to move out of the main air stream. The small particle matter moves slower. Then, it is trapped by the first two methods.
Do I need Carbon Filters?
The simple answer is almost always YES. carbon filtration remove odors and more importantly harmful VOC’s from your home. Every LakeAir Air Purifier comes with a carbon filter. Most of our products have 2 options standard and super carbon filters. Standard filters are made of mesh and carbon media. They absorb odors well, but the volume they can absorb is diminished. The Super Carbon filters contain over 30 times more carbon and can absorb many more odors than a standard carbon filter.
Carbon filters sometimes called charcoal filters, take odor out of the air. This is accomplished through a process call absorption. Activated carbon has a very porous structure, which allow gas particles to be trapped in the cracks and crevices of the carbon.
You can't go wrong with LakeAir Air Filtration Options
Both LakeAir Filters are highly efficient. The filter on the left allows free air to flow through. This is done while removing 97% of all dirt from the air. The filter on the right removes 99.97% of dirt from the air but significantly slows down the flow rate. For maximum clean airflow choose the MAX-700. For maximum particulate removal choose the Maxum HEPA.

Indoor air pollution is among the top five environmental health risks. The very young are most likely to be affected dirty air in the home. Their small bodies are not equipped to fight off dust, mold and other pollutants. The elderly are also likely to have respiratory issues. Their immune systems are often compromised. Asthmatic symptoms are often caused by excess dust and dirty air in the home. It’s not only these groups that are adversely affected by indoor air pollution. It can affect even the most fit person you know. So, many of us do indeed need a residential clean air system ?
The best way to address this risk is to control or eliminate the sources of pollutants. Ventilating a home with clean outdoor air can accomplish this. Ventilation may be limited by weather or by pollution in the outdoor air. You can use a room air cleaner to clean the air in your home when it is not feasible to ventilate. Families need highly efficient air purifiers that have enough power to clean the air well and clean it enough times in a hour.

What are the Real Dangers to my Family?
Immediate affects may appear after coming into contact once or repeatedly with a pollutant. As a result, you might experience eye, nose and throat irritation. Dizziness and a rundown feeling are common as well. These symptoms can lead to asthma especially in children. Furthermore, Studies have shown that up to 12% of children with asthma developed from exposure to mold or other air pollutants.
Long term effects can show up years after exposure has occurred. Repeated exposure will only make the effects worse. Some of these effects include respiratory disease, heart disease and even cancer. It is wise to try to improve the indoor air quality in your home even if the symptoms aren’t immediately noticeable. As a result, your home will have cleaner air. Consider a residential air purifier as one tools in creating better indoor air quality for your home and family. The effects of indoor air pollution are even greater on the very young and old. Infants and young children have a higher breathing and heart rate and smaller bodies. Therefore they are exposed to more harmful affects.

Frequently Asked Questions:
Various technologies are employed by air purifiers to absorb and eliminate airborne contaminants and allergens.
Common techniques include:- HEPA filters collect particles as tiny as 0.3 microns in size, including dust, pollen, and pet dander.
- Filters made of activated carbon that capture and trap chemicals, gases, and scents.
- UV radiation, which destroys microorganisms such as bacteria and viruses.
- Ionizers emit negatively charged ions that cling to contaminants, making them heavier and simpler to catch using a HEPA filter.
- Ozone generators, which emit ozone, a gas that may eliminate pollutants and aromas, but is also toxic to human health, can be hazardous to the environment.
Multiple filters and technologies frequently work in tandem to clean the air in air purifiers, where these approaches are employed.
Depending on the air purifier, the particular technique or mix of processes may vary.
Multiple technologies, including HEPA filters, activated carbon filters, and UV-C lamps, are utilized by home air purifiers to eliminate airborne contaminants.
Household air purifiers can eliminate the following common pollutants:
- Particulate particles such as dust, pet dander, and pollen
- Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) consisting of formaldehyde, benzene, and ammonia.
- Cooking, pet, and smoking-related smoke and scents
- Microorganisms, viruses, and mold spores
- Pesticides and cleaning chemicals are examples of chemical toxins.
However, it is essential to realize that various air purifiers employ different technologies and that not all air purifiers can remove all contaminants.
Air purifiers can alleviate allergy and asthma symptoms by eliminating pollutants that aggravate these disorders.
In addition to dust, pollen, pet dander, and mold spores, they may also filter out chemicals and gases.
Some air purifiers employ UV-C light or activated carbon to eliminate smells, germs, and viruses.
An air purifier can make it easier to breathe and minimize symptoms such as sneezing, coughing, and congestion by lowering the concentration of allergens and irritants in the air.
