Need an air purifier for the living room? Pay attention to the following when buying one.

The living room is a place where people spend a lot of time. Breakfast with the family, a movie on the couch in the evening .. recognisable? However, what most people don’t know is that the air quality in living rooms is often moderate to poor which can cause potential health problems for residents as a result. Buying a living room air purifier is a good choice, because it ensures clean and healthy air and it protects people with allergies.

Are you looking for a living room air purifier? Then pay attention to the following points before you buy one.

What should you pay attention to when buying an air purifier for the living room?

Have you decided to buy a living room air purifier? Then of course you want the best buy. However, there are a number of things to be aware of. Such as, for example, the noise level and the placement of the device. Read all about it below.

1. The size of the living room

A living room air purifier is only effective up to a certain number of square meters. So make sure you know how big your living room is. And also how much space your air purifier can cover in total.

2. The noise level

Another important factor when choosing an air purifier for in the living room is the noise level. One person doesn’t mind some background noise, while the other wants the room to be absolutely quiet. So look at the number of decibels of the air purifier and estimate whether this is satisfactory. Make sure to buy it with excess capacity so the device doesn’t have to run at maximum speed.

3. The type of filter

There are different types of filters. You have replaceable, but also permanent filters. Our air purifiers work with a HEPA filter. This filter is extremely effective against air pollution. In addition, this filter removes the smallest particles from the air, including fine dust and mold spores.

4. Energy consumption

Energy consumption is a factor to take into account. Especially since an air purifier placed in a living room will run for many hours. It’s best to leave the air purifier constantly running to keep the air circulation going. An energy-friendly device is therefore recommended.

5. Placement in the living room

Finally, the placement of the air purifier in the living room is also important. An air purifier should be placed in the breathing zone. Here it works best against very small particles such as ultrafine dust. If you place an air purifier on the floor, it will have little or no effect. It is best to place it on a wall.

The best air purifier for the living room, which model do you need?

We recommend the EA30 air purifier (see photo). The capacity of this device is large enough for every living room and it is also very quiet. The EA30 works with the patented AIH HEPA technology, which removes all minute particles (fine dust, viruses, bacteria, etc.). Besides this, maintenance of the EA30 is only required once every six months.

What causes poor air quality in the living room?

Humans are often the cause of an unhealthy living room climate. People pollute the air by cooking, smoking, lighting candles and the fireplace, among other things. This creates fine dust for instance. Fine dust is a dangerous form of air pollution. Pollen, allergens and viruses also create an unhealthy indoor climate. Fortunately, a living room air purifier offers a solution!

What are the consequences of a bad living room climate?

Unhealthy air in the living room has adverse health consequences. Although most complaints are of a mild nature, in some cases serious complaints occur. People with allergies or lung problems are especially vulnerable to this. The most common complaints of a bad indoor climate are:

  • Fatigue
  • Dizziness
  • Rash
  • Coughing
  • Shortness of breath
  • Infections in the lungs
  • Decrease in lung condition

    The requirements: silent air purifier with low energy consumption

    Most people prefer to sleep in a room with as little noise as possible. It’s therefore important for a bedroom air purifier to be quiet. Although a completely silent air purifier does not exist, there are models that hardly produce any noise. A so-called low-noise air purifier is the right choice. The sound of this silent air purifier is so soft that you can barely hear it. Falling asleep with a low-noise air purifier is effortless.

    Low energy consumption is the second requirement for a bedroom air purifier. Remember, if you buy a bedroom air purifier, it will be on all night. With low consumption you save a lot of energy costs.

    If you buy an air purifier for in your bedroom, make sure to get a quiet and energy-efficient device at home. An air purifier that meets these requirements is the EA15.

The EA15 also has an extremely low energy consumption and at its max, the device uses only 10W. This is a very economical use compared to other air purifiers.

    experiences from people with bedroom air purifiers show that they sleep better

    Why is cleaning the air in the bedroom so important?

    On average, people spend one third of their life in the bedroom. That’s a big part of your life. Scientific research shows that good air quality in the bedroom has many positive effects on your health. It also contributes to better sleep. Better sleep leads to better performance at school and work and it even protects you against brain disorders such as depression and strokes in the long term. What you want is just silence in your bedroom. This is perfectly possible with a bedroom air purifier.

    What are the dangers of polluted air in the bedroom?

    With polluted air in the bedroom (fine dust, viruses, bacteria, etc.), the chance of getting unpleasant complaints is high. Think of headaches, stuffiness and drowsiness. You may also wake up from your sleep with dry eyes, a dry nose or a dry throat. These are all annoying complaints that you would rather prevent than cure. With a bedroom air purifier you protect yourself against unhealthy air.

      Remove fine dust with 4 effective tips

      We care about clean air

      solutions for indoor air quality

      Quick to: advice and product

      Remove fine dust with four effective tips | Get rid of dust particles quickly

      Fine dust is harmful to health. It causes a lot of trouble. This includes potential absenteeism due to illness, but also health complaints. Many people think that the air quality outside is worse than inside. That is a misconception. The EPA has conducted an investigation. This shows that the quality of the indoor air is two to five times worse than the quality of the outdoor air. This is mainly due to lots of chemicals in the air.

      In this article you can read why fine dust removal is necessary at home, how you do this and how you can measure it.

      What are the health risks of fine dust in your home?

      Fine dust particles penetrate deep into the lungs of humans. People are particularly at risk in large cities. Every year, a maximum of 3000 Dutch people die from the effects of (ultra) fine dust. So it’s very important to protect yourself from the risks. Fine dust causes various serious complaints, such as:

      • heart and vascular disease
      • high blood pressure
      • breathing problems
      • various allergies
      • increased risk of lung cancer

      Fortunately, you can protect yourself by removing fine dust from your environment. Below you can read four effective tips that really work.

      Tip 1: Remove fine dust by using an air purifier

      This is perhaps the best and fastest way to remove ultra-fine dust. An air purifier ensures that the most harmful substances and particles are removed from the air in your environment. Extreme Air Products offers the EA15, a beautiful air purifier that also has the option to be mounted on the wall. The advantage of this air purifier is that it’s quiet and energy-friendly. So if you are looking for a quick solution for removing fine dust, then using an air purifier is a good option. Experiences of our previous clients also prove this to be true.

      The EA15 is a good choice for removing fine dust from the air

      Tip 2: Always leave the extractor hood on while cooking

      Inspection by the TNO research institute shows that fine dust particles occur in big concentrations, especially when roasting meat and stir-frying vegetables. Research from the World Health Organization (WHO) even concludes that when one fries a hamburger, the amount of dust particles rises to 67 times the permitted standard. A good way to deal with ultrafine dust during cooking is to always switch on the extractor hood. It’s also recommended to leave the extractor on for 20 minutes after cooking. If you don’t have an extractor hood, you can open the window in the kitchen. However, this will remove relatively less harmful dust particles such as fine dust than using an extractor hood. So, if you don’t have an extractor hood yet, it is highly recommended to buy one.

      Tip 3: Remove fine dust by replacing your wood-burning stove

      Wood burning is also a prominent source of ultra-fine dust. A fire pit emits a lot of harmful dust particles. According to the website stookwijzer.nu, such a stove emits just as much fine dust as a truck journey of 3,000 kilometers. To avoid this enormous risk of pollution, consider purchasing a pellet stove. This can result in significant savings in emissions. According to the Energy Research Center of the Netherlands (ECM), the PM10 emissions per kilo of fuel are between 6 and 40 grams. That while pellet stoves emit 1 or 2 grams of PM10 per kilo.

      Tip 4: Stop smoking indoors

      Removing fine dust is also possible by quitting smoking indoors. It should come as no surprise that cigarette smoke does not improve air quality. Cigarette smoke contains all kinds of dangerous chemicals, including fine dust. These chemicals cause various health problems. Lung cancer is an example of this. If you or your roommate smokes, consider smoking outside. This way you keep the indoor air clean and you also get a breath of fresh air.

      Bonus tip: measure whether the taken measures are working

      In this case, I think we can all agree to this: “Measurement is the key to knowledge.” This still applies if you take all of the measures to remove fine dust we spoke of before. With a fine dust meter you know exactly how many fine dust particles are present in the air and whether the air quality in your home is healthy.

        Indoor Air Quality: air quality within your building

        Unfortunately, few people realise that indoor air quality is often polluted and can lead to all kinds of health problems. (Source: Longfonds)

        We breathe in and out more than 23,000 times a day. We spend almost 80% of our time indoors. The cleaner the air we breathe, the better we feel and the healthier we are.

        The air quality in the workplace is unfortunately moderate to poor in many situations. The presence of fine dust (read more about fine dust and air quality), pollen, allergens and viruses is an instigator of absenteeism.

        When the air is properly cleaned, we feel good. We are more concentrated. We perform better. Labor productivity will increase and absenteeism due to illness will decrease.

        Let us help you optimise the indoor air quality within your building. This saves you the very high costs of absenteeism and ensures that your employees feel better and enjoy going to work more.

          What is the best air purifier? Buying guide and advice

          solutions for indoor air quality

          What is the best air purifier to buy in your situation? (Update 2026)

          Do you want to buy the best air purifier? Then are the air purifiers from Extreme Air Products the best choice for problems with smoke, viruses, odor and fine dust. Read information from the British Lung Foundation about the harmful consequences of poor air quality. We offer sustainable air cleaners that are used for both smoking rooms and large and small rooms. Our products are patented and are produced in the Netherlands and Sweden.

          Buying an air purifier is an excellent investment

          Buying an air purifier means clean, healthy indoor air. That is the main reason for buying one. Your home and office is a source of pollution and often unhealthier than outside air (source). This is mainly due to the fact that ventilation systems filter virtually nothing. This allows dust, pesticides, exhaust gases and other types of air pollution to enter.

          By buying and using an air purifier, you remove all air pollution and ensure yourself of the cleanest indoor air. It gives the feeling that you live or work in air as healthy as the Finnish outdoors.

          How does an air purifier work?

          An air purifier uses a filter to purify the air. Different types of filters are available on the market. Good air purifiers work with a HEPA filter. These filters with an effectiveness of 99.99% remove all impurities from the air (fine dust, allergens, pollen, etc.). It is therefore best to buy an air purifier with a HEPA filter.

          View below in our review which air purifier is most suitable for your situation.

A room must always be ventilated in accordance with the Building Decree of your country. Because good ventilation in your smoking room is of great importance, sufficient oxygen is left in the room. However, this one-sided option is insufficient for the removal of smoke.

          The best air purifier for removing smoke is the EAS 1300. This requires minimal ventilation. That means no large fans, no drafts and a very limited energy consumption. So all in all a sustainable product in your smoking room!

              What we can do to fight fine dust, ozone and air pollution indoors

              We care about clean air

              The Dangers of Fine Dust, Ozone, Smog and Air Pollution

              Why smog, ozone and air pollution is bad for your health and what you can do to protect yourself.

              According to The New York Times, air pollution due to fine dust, ozone and smog have a much bigger influence on our daily lives than initially expected apart from various health issues that come along with polluted air. Some of these health issues are for instance:

              • irritated respiratory systems
              • reduced lung functions
              • increased chance of asthma
              • increased risk of cancer

              Currently, many cities in China are suffering ozone and smog levels that are far higher than usually bearable for a human being, but also for mother nature. As stated in this article: In Anyang, Henan Province, the air quality index read 999 at 3 p.m. (which is three times as worse than in Beijing and so the top of the scale). In Handan, in Hebei Province, it wasn’t much better, here the air quality index read 822. And in the same province, the city of Shijiazhuang(a bit closer to Beijing) they registered 460.

              By United States standards, anything above 300 is “hazardous,” meaning people should stay indoors. In the year 1999, the United States Environmental Protection Agency already warned about the hazardous effects of smog and ozone!

              Apart from the negative health influences, further disruptions to our daily life and economic losses can be expected. It appears that Beijing’s mayor and his colleagues took the extraordinary step of issuing a red alert, which took effect Tuesday, as a rejoinder to widespread criticism of their inaction during the last bout of severe smog. “That occurred as Chinese leaders were arriving in Paris for the start of climate change talks on Nov. 30, and global news reports and photographs of the bad air were an embarrassment for officials”, Mr. Wang said.

              Fine Dust & Air Pollution: What can be done to protect your Home and Work Space

              In times of increasingly polluted living areas and urban spaces, it’s essential to clean the air we live in; outside but especially inside! By this, we can make sure to reduce the levels of fine dust and other air pollution in our work spaces, offices and also at home.

              Probably contradictory to what most people might think, most of our exposure to environmental pollutants occurs by breathing the air indoors. Here, fine dust and pollution come from activities, products and materials we use every day. The air in our homes, schools and offices can be 2 to 5 times more polluted, and in some cases 100 times more polluted than outside!

              People Spend 90 Percent of Their Time Inside

              Therefore, indoor air quality is a significant concern, because when we add up the hours spent sleeping, working in our offices or at school, people spend on average the vast majority of their time indoors where they are repeatedly exposed to indoor air pollution and high levels of fine dust. Furthermore, it’s estimated that the average person receives 72 percent of their chemical exposure at home, which means that the very places most people consider the safest paradoxically exposes them to the greatest amounts of potentially very hazardous pollutants.

              At AXP we believe that proper air purification represents a great solution to manage dangerous air pollution and protect our health. The EAS1300 air purifier is a patented innovation with a unique combination of air displacement and filtration. The product has an extremely high capacity and takes care of all kinds of pollution you can imagine. Research by TNO (an independent Dutch research institute) has shown that exposure to damaging components decreases with 99% in spaces where the EAS1300 is used. Thus, the air purifier is developed for intensely polluted areas and gets the job done!

                Air Pollution Kills 3 Million Every Year, Figure Could Double In Coming Years, Study Finds

                Air Pollution

                According to TechTimes, the latest developments in worldwide air pollution is causing more than three million premature deaths around the world every year, and the figure could be double that by the year 2050, a study suggests.

                Pollutants including ozone and fine dust particulate matter — particles so small they’re invisible to the naked eye — contribute to lung disease, heart disease and other serious health problems around the globe, researchers say.

                Around three-quarters of the annual 3.3 million deaths occur in Asian, they note, with outdoor air pollution killing 1.4 million people annually in China and 650,000 in India.

                “Strokes and heart attacks are responsible for nearly 75 percent of air pollution-related mortality,” says Jos Lelieveld, an atmospheric scientist at the Max Planck Institute for Chemistry in Germany and lead author of the study published in the journal Nature.

                “They’re so small that they can actually get deep into the lungs, into the alveoli, and get into your bloodstream,” stresses New York University professor of population health and environmental medicine George Thurston, who was not involved in the study.

                “These tiny chemical particles we breathe can get past the body’s immune system and penetrate deep into the lungs and bloodstream, and they are not naturally removed from the body’s airways,” he argues.

                Air pollution: Our solution against fine dust & ozone at home or at work: the EA15 and EA30 air purifiers.

                The EA15 & EA30 series is our newest innovation made in Sweden! This new solid and stylish air purifier applies the innovative and patented AIH-filter technique. This professional approach cleans the polluted air better and more effective than ever. It ensures a pleasant and healthy living, but also working environment.

                Servicing the device will only cost you 1 minute in a period of six months and can easily be done by  anyone. The EA15 & EA30 air purifiers are ideally suitable for smaller rooms and offices. But also at home they are the perfect solution for living areas and sleeping rooms. The machines can be mounted on to the wall or be installed as a stand alone unit. This minimalist and stylish Swedish design is made from steel.
