The Aprilaire 5000 by Bel-aire is a home air purifier developed to clean the whole home and produce clean air for a home. The model was designed by Bel-aire to be the most effective and efficient model of air purifier that has ever been developed by the company. The effectiveness of the performance of the Aprilaire 5000 can be accredited to the cutting edge and leading technology that was researched and used to build the filtering system. The system is designed using the latest filtering mediums and systems in order to remove the particles and contaminants from the air. This whole-home air purifier can not only be effective at removing the contaminants from the air but it is also built with the most outstanding materials in order for its life to be long and to stay low on user maintenance. With the design on the 5000, Bel-aire has raised the standard of excellence in whole-home air purifiers. The technology used in the development of the Aprilaire 5000 is what led it to become one of the most effective purifiers on the market.
The combination of the electronic technology and the filtering technology gives the efficiency of both filtering systems to the Aprilaire 5000. The unique filtering system used in the 5000 starts by attracting the particles and harmful contaminants in the air and attaching a positive charge to these particles. The air and the positively charged particles are then passed through the micro-fiber media. This media is a filter that is pleated and it holds a negative charge. The positively charged particles in the air are instantly attracted to the negatively charged filter and they stick to the filter. The particles are then no longer present in the air and when the air is released from the system, it is free of the particles and contaminants. The attraction of the particles to the medium can almost be compared to the way metal filings attract to a magnet.
According to a major consumer magazine, these air purifiers are the best whole-home air purifier on the market today. This magazine not only named the system the best air purifier on the market for one year, but for two consecutive years. The magazine has developed its own unique ways of testing the air purifier units and after the results of the tests; the magazine has awarded the 5000 the award of the best all-around whole-home air purifier. There is also data from the air purifying industry that suggests that the 5000 has performed a breakthrough performance at removing contaminants from the air. The contaminants that are removed by these air purifiers not only include everyday annoyances such as pollen and dust but also microscopic and hard to remove particles such as allergens, viruses and bacteria that can be harmful to a person's health.
As measured by the industry, Aprilaire 5000 air purifiers are measured at about 94 percent efficiency for removing particles from the air that are 0.35 microns in size and larger. This size of particle includes particles of tobacco smoke, pollen, dust, dirt and bacteria that may be present in the air. The 94 percent efficiency of these air purifiers is very impressive when compared to the 72 percent efficiency that is usually achieved by plate-type electronic air purifiers.
