The clean air in the apartments of modern cities leaves much to be desired. In a confined space, dust, harmful substances and microorganisms accumulate. The security issue of the "home" microclimate is gaining global importance.

A possible solution to the problem is to install a Bork air purifier in the living room. The company constantly improves the design of devices and updates the range of air purifiers.

Varieties of air purifiers Bork

Bork is one of the leaders in the production of premium home appliances. The company presents a wide range of devices providing an optimal indoor climate. Actively in demand among them are air purifiers.

The principle of operation of the devices is based on multistage air filtration and its release from polluting particles. Some models are capable of cleaving and oxidizing dust at a molecular level to harmless components.

All Bork air purifiers have good technical specifications and sophisticated design.

On sale are air purifiers using different operating principles. Each of them is aimed at solving certain pollution problems. The method and effectiveness of environmental cleaning depends on the type of filtration system used.

The principle of operation of the cleaner
Air purifiers have a whole range of useful properties: remove pollen, dust, destroy pathogens and clean the air of smoke

Bork instruments use the following filter types:

  1. Mechanical. Fine mesh for preliminary (rough) cleaning of air from animal hair and large contaminants. The filter is installed on almost all climatic devices, as it blocks the ingress of particles 5-10 microns in size into the device.
  2. Ionizing. Air passes through an electrostatic chamber, where positively charged pollution particles settle on the plates. They are highly efficient - in a short time they clean the room from dust and soot. Minus - ozone release.
  3. Carbonic. The filter eliminates semi-volatile and volatile organic compounds. The absorption material is not effective enough in a humid environment. In Bork air purifiers, the carbon filter acts as an additional element of the cleaning system.
  4. Water. It is applied in "sinks of air". Devices at the same time clean the surrounding space and bring air humidity to normal.
  5. HEPA filter. Performs fine cleaning, removing particles from 0.3 microns (mold spores, scales of the skin of animals and people, dust mites).
  6. Photocatalytic. Toxic impurities decompose under the influence of UV radiation. Cleaning efficiency - up to 99%.

Bork has developed its own filter system to reduce the invasiveness of the influenza virus, remove legionella bacteria and clean the air of formaldehyde vapor.

With the rules of choosing an air purifier for users suffering from allergic diseases, will introduce the articlewhich we recommend reading.

Types of filters
A typical air purifier consists of a powerful fan and a set of filter elements assembled in a single housing. The combination of different filters provides a high degree of purification

In addition to the principle of filtration, Bork cleaning devices are classified according to the following criteria:

  • installation method: wall, floor, desktop and universal;
  • main purpose and scope: household, for asthmatics or allergy sufferers, air purification in a car, universal;

Each modification of the air purifier has its own distinctive features that should be considered when buying and operating the device.

    Relatives gave us a Bork air purifier. A thing that is generally useful, but we ourselves wouldn’t decide on such a purchase, there are always more important goals for which money is needed. The device is quite large, floor type. It contains 4 types of filters and a humidification function. The cleaner itself performs air diagnostics and starts cleaning if it is dirty. In principle, it works even in the most active mode quietly. The air becomes cleaner, it is clearly felt during breathing. But there is a minus - the filters are replaceable and they are decent.

    • But I foolishly bought and was disappointed in him. This Bork is not worth the money they ask for it. I did not understand the logic of the sensor. I specifically tried to dust near the device - it did not react in any way. Subjectively, it does not remove odors or dust.
