Ensure your family’s is breathing healthy air on road trips with this air purifier.
My family and I are getting ready to go on vacation and that vacation involves a very long car ride. As you might imagine, the air in the cabin of the car can get pretty stale after 14 hours in the car. We’ve made this trip a few times in the past, but this time, we are going to have an additional accessory with us – the FrescheAir Pro portable HEPA Air Purifier. It’s a deodorizer/purifier that is designed to fit directly in your car’s cup holder. So it’s perfect for road trips.
DETAILS
The FrescheAir Pro is designed to keep your vehicle smelling fresh. It eliminates odors such as food, smoke, and pets and it reduces allergens in the air. The air purifier is controlled with motion sensors and gives you the option of low, medium, or high fan speeds. There is a display on the top of the canister that shows the fan speed, air quality, temperature, and humidity. The high-performance HEPA filter in the canister collects 99.5% of all small particles, dust, and pollen. The fan pulls air into the filter area in the bottom of the canister and then filtered fresh air is released from the top. The purifier measures 2.6” x 6.9” and it’s round so it fits in most car cup holders. Based on its slim design, it can also be used on a desk or in a bedroom as well. The purifier is powered by a USB cable and it comes with a dual 12V charger. The FrescheAir Pro meets the California ozone emissions limit and is CARB certified.
USER EXPERIENCE
So I have to admit that when I first heard about this product I thought, “Do we really need this?” My thinking was that if we needed fresh air, we could just open a window. But, the more I thought about it, the more I realized that outdoor air isn’t always the freshest either. In our area of the Midwest, we have insane amounts of pollen in the atmosphere and our vacation destination might have red tide in the area when we arrive. This naturally occurring disturbance causes quite a bit of air pollution and because of that, the natural air quality is not clean. For these reasons, having the FrescheAir Pro air purifier in our car makes a lot of sense.
The purifier is very easy to set up. It’s ready to operate out of the box. You simply place it in your car (or on your desk if you decide to use it inside) and plug it in. Then you just wave your hand over the top to turn the fan on. The rest of the operation process – the figures on the display, air intake/output, etc. – is automatic. Once the purifier is turned on, you can adjust the fan speed, but that’s it.
So far, we have only used it on short trips, but I have noticed a difference in the air quality in the cabin of the car. It seems cleaner and less odors filtering through the car. I don’t have a way to test the cleanliness of the air other than to say that it seems easier to breathe. I also really like the easy-to-read display on the top of the canister. I love that it shows the humidity and the temperature because we have to monitor that type of stuff pretty closely for my grandmother’s condition. It’s a very handy appliance to have available.
CONCLUSION
I really like the very simple operation of this air purifier and how it is designed for smaller spaces. I do wish it has a slightly shorter profile, but other than that I think this is a really worthy investment.
