In a very large enclosed space<\/strong>, such as an industrial building, warehouse, or sports hall, the continuous inhalation of dangerous particles poses a constant threat to our health. Without us realizing it, it can cause ocular, dermatological, or respiratory pathologies. <\/p>\n\n

To properly purify the air<\/strong>, it is therefore essential to choose the correct air purifier model for a large area<\/strong>. Here are some explanations.<\/p>\n\n

Air treatment for large spaces<\/h2>\n\n

Various solutions are available to clean up large volumes of pollution.<\/strong> If the source of the pollution is localized, it is advisable to extract it at source using a localized capture system or a mobile capture and filtration device.<\/p>\n\n

Nevertheless, polluting particles sometimes disseminate in the air, making it impossible to treat them at the source. It is then advisable to adopt a specific ambient air purifier for large volumes<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n

Good to know: One might think that purifying a large volume<\/strong> would increase the already significant energy bill for a spacious building. However, this is not the case. A professional air purifier<\/strong> utilizes the building’s temperature gradient. It vertically draws slightly warmer air from the top of the unit and horizontally returns it into the room. This slightly warmer air naturally rises. An air movement is thus created. This allows for air treatment using 10 times less energy than an air handling unit and provides thermal comfort<\/strong>, without increasing the thermostat in a warehouse or any type of industrial workshop. The air purifier acts as a destratifier.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n

Choosing the right large-area air purifier<\/h2>\n\n

The entry point of the type of pollutant is, as we have seen, an essential factor to consider. There are also other parameters to consider in order to find the best air purifier<\/strong>. We provide the main ones below.<\/p>\n\n

Pollution type and concentration<\/h3>\n\n

To achieve effective air purification<\/strong>, it is crucial to precisely identify the type of pollutant. Indeed, depending on the type (gaseous or particulate) and the size of the particles, the filtration model to be used and its filtration fineness differ. Note that there are two possible systems:<\/p>\n\n
