- Health Impacts: Air pollution exposure can lead to lung cancer, stroke, and heart disease.
- AC Air Purifier Attachment: It reduced PM2.5 levels but puts load on AC and is not effective when AC is not in use in winters.

- Realme Techlife Air Purifier: Has HEPA filter, cleans effectively, but the filter is discontinued and unavailable.

Key Pointers
- The air quality in Delhi is extremely poor, with PM 2.5 levels six times higher than the acceptable limit.
- Indoor air pollution is often higher than outdoor air pollution due to lack of fresh air ventilation.
- Low-cost air purification solutions like naso 95 and AC filters are ineffective against current air pollution levels.
- A proper air purifier is the only effective solution for cleaning indoor air.
- When buying an air purifier, consider the filter type (true HEPA filter recommended), CADR (should be 60% of room area), and filter replacement cost.
- Me air purifier 4 light (₹9,690) offers effective cleaning, accurate pollution readings, and app connectivity, but has a bulky adapter and expensive filter combo.
- Co Air Purifier (₹12,000-15,000) has a removable pre-filter, high CADR, and touch buttons, but its pollution sensor only shows the level as a color (red, yellow, green).
- Philips air purifier (₹17,000-18,000) has a high filter replacement cost.
- Dyson TP03 air purifier (₹28,000) is a bladeless fan with an air purifier, but it is expensive and has disappointing cleaning performance.
- The most efficient air purifier in the test was Co Air Purifier, while Dyson was the most disappointing.
- For budget-friendly air purification, consider the Xiaomi air purifier 4 light (at least ₹10,000).
- For larger rooms and a bigger budget, the Co Air Purifier (up to ₹15,000) is recommended.
- The speaker likes the Mega 230 air filter.
- They use it as a pre-filter for other air filters.
- The new model has a better filtering system with pre and max filters.
- It's simple to use and can filter a large space.
- It has different modes.
- It has a filter light indicator.
- It has a timer setting from 1 to 8 hours.
- The speaker prefers to leave the filter on all the time.
- Air purifier sensors can become inaccurate after about 1-1.5 years of use.
- This is because the laser sensor gets dirty and needs cleaning.
- Air purifiers don't notify you when to clean the sensor.
- You need to manually clean the sensor by opening the device.
- If the sensor is dirty, the air purifier will give incorrect readings.
- Relying on incorrect readings can put your health at risk.
