1.1 Why an Air Purifier?

Indoor air quality can be 2 to 5 times worse than outdoor air quality, contributing to various health issues. An air purifier helps mitigate these risks by removing harmful airborne pollutants. The HIMOX H08 is particularly effective against common indoor air contaminants such as odors, smoke, new paint smells, general air pollution, dust mites, and mold mildew.
