- Can eliminate more types of air pollution than washing, and cover large areas.
- Disadvantages:
There are several types of filters built into the air cleaner, each of which has its own not very wide range of action. Air cleaners in which the electrostatic filter is integrated are good for heavily dusty rooms.
