Breathing is the most basic yet crucial act for maintaining health. However, not everyone is aware that indoor air quality also directly affects the respiratory system. That is why more and more people are becoming interested in air filters – the key factor determining the effectiveness of a purifier. In this article, let's explore the common types of air filters available today and how to choose the one that best fits your needs.
1. COMMON TYPES OF AIR FILTERS TODAY
1.1. Pre-filter
The pre-filter is the first layer of filtration, responsible for trapping large dust, hair, pet dander, and other large particles. By doing so, it helps reduce the workload on the subsequent filter layers, extending the lifespan of the main filter. This type of air filter can usually be removed for periodic cleaning, maintaining consistent filtration efficiency over time.
1.2. Activated Carbon Filter
The activated carbon filter is made from activated carbon and has the ability to absorb odors, cigarette smoke, toxic gases, and volatile organic compounds (VOCs). This is an ideal choice for enclosed spaces, homes with smokers, pet owners, or locations near industrial zones – where unpleasant odors and gases frequently occur.
1.3. HEPA Filter - especially the HEPA H13 filter
The HEPA (High Efficiency Particulate Air) filter is the "heart" of a modern air purifier. It is capable of filtering up to 99.97% of ultra-fine particles as small as 0.3 microns – including pollen, mold spores, bacteria, and some types of viruses.
Among these, the HEPA H13 filter is one of the highest levels of the HEPA line, commonly used in cleanrooms, hospitals, and medical devices. Thanks to its high filtration efficiency, the HEPA H13 filter is especially suitable for people with sensitive constitutions, allergies, or those living in polluted areas.
1.4. Negative Ions and UVC Light
These are two common auxiliary technologies found in modern air purifiers:
- Negative ions: help neutralize fine dust, deodorize, and reduce static electricity, providing a pleasant feeling similar to fresh air after rain.
- UVC light: has the ability to destroy bacteria, viruses, and harmful microorganisms on the surface of the filter, contributing to a more comprehensive air disinfection.

2. HOW TO CHOOSE THE RIGHT AIR FILTER
Choosing the right type of air filter will help you maximize the effectiveness of your air purifier. To make it easier to choose, consider a few factors:
- Area and usage environment: Bedrooms, living rooms, homes with pets, or living near industrial zones will require machines with more specialized filters like HEPA H13 or additional activated carbon filters.
- Specific concerns: If you are worried about bacteria, viruses, or microbiologically polluted air, look for models that integrate UVC light or anti-virus filters.
- Convenience of use: Many current products feature smart app connectivity, allowing for real-time air quality monitoring, remote control, negative ion generation, etc., to enhance the modern living experience.
