The NQ Clarifier is one of the very best air purifiers anywhere, and given its extensive feature list, it is the best value of any air purifier on the market.
The unit has 4 levels of filtration to address all of the allergans and toxins that are present in every home and workplace.
The HEPA filter on the Clarifier is the largest of any purifier we carry, meaning that it will filter even more of the allergans that are all around and last much longer than a typical sized filter. There is even a pre-filter which screens out larger particles and further extends the life of the main HEPA filter.
The large HEPA filter will greatly reduce symptoms in people with allergies or asthmatic conditions, and even otherwise healthy people will notice that they sleep better with the purifier in their bedroom, as the air will be measurably cleaner.
The Clarifier also has a large 15 lbs. activated carbon filter which is designed to eliminate odors and capture harmful volatile organic compounds and airborne chemicals which are present in every household. You will immediately noticed an improved air quality in any room with this purifier because of the carbon filter.
And the Clarifier also has another major system for purification, UV lamps. The two 9 watt lamps inside the housing of the unit sterilize all the air that passes through it of bacteria, viruses, mold spores, and fungi.
This helps reduce the risk of airborne infections like colds and the flu and is a big reason why the Clarifier is very popular with parents of young kids, as well as parents of kids who live in school dormitories.
NQ Industries has creating sophisticated air purification systems for the health care industry for 3 decades now, and the Clarifier is result of all that experience put into one portable unit for personal use.
All of the major electrical and mechanical components are Swiss and German-made, and the units are assembled upon order at NQ headquarters in Connecticut.
