First impression
The device comes in a glossy white box. The cleaner is shown on the front part, the main features of the model are on the side. Inside is the technical documentation and, in fact, the device itself. We begin the review of the BALLU AP-110 air purifier with a description of the dimensions: height 58 cm, width 17 cm, depth 21 cm. The device weighs 4.5 kilograms. Accordingly, it does not take up much space. This is a plus.
The model looks expensive. On the front part there are holes through which the model blows air at an angle of 20-30 degrees. The air intake is from the back. It is worth saying that the decorative grille is made with high quality. It also serves as protection against children.
As soon as you remove it, the device will stop working. At first glance, the device is durable, the coating is good, no defects were detected. Now let's talk more about what is inside.
Purifier Design Features
After removing the grill, they found the filter itself, packed in polyethylene. It, in turn, consists of a pre-filter, a HEPA filter and a carbon filter to remove unpleasant odors. A very useful thing if one of the family members smokes. Behind the filter is an ultraviolet lamp.
It is worth noting that this structural element is protected by a metal casing. Next comes the ionizer, which saturates the air with anions. Accordingly, a total of 4 cleaning steps are implemented. In this case, the UV lamp and ionizer can be turned off.
Above is the control panel.
How does air purification work?
In fact, at the first stage of cleaning, dust, wool, hair, skin fragments and other large debris traps the pre-filter. It is a thin mesh. Smaller debris, including pollen, combustion products and allergens, destroys the more advanced HEPA filter. At the same stage, a carbon filter, like a sponge, absorbs unpleasant odors from pets, smokers.
Further, air disinfection occurs due to the ultraviolet lamp.How does it work? When bacteria and microbes pass through a UV lamp, they oxidize and break down into inactive trace elements. This is a really useful tool if there are children in the house. Especially in the winter time period or during periods of epidemic.
At the last stage, the ionizer generates negatively charged ions. Why is this needed? Every modern person’s house has a lot of equipment. Electronics generates positively charged ions, and this negatively affects the well-being of a person. Accordingly, the ionizer is responsible for the balance of cations and anions in the house.
Management and operation of the BALLU AP-110
At first it’s worth saying that the device has three operating speeds. To create a review of the BALLU AP-110, we tested each of the modes:
- Night - low power, respectively, the device works quietly, does not interfere with a comfortable rest;
- Daytime - average power;
- Maximum power - productivity increases to 200 cubic meters per hour.
After turning on the cleaner, it works loudly for several seconds, after which it switches to the mode that was used before the device was turned off.
Using the indicator, you can control the degree of air purity. Suppose that after turning on the device, the backlight lights up in orange. We turn on the maximum power, and after a few seconds we see a blue color. In this case, you can switch from maximum power to automatic mode. If necessary, the backlight can be turned off. For example, before going to bed.
There are enough filters for 4-8 months. In any case, the manufacturer says so. Unfortunately, there is no way to verify this personally, but there is no reason to doubt it.
Our opinion on Ballu AP-110 cleaners
Honestly, 2 days after using the device, doubts arose about its effectiveness. The fact is that the filter was completely clean. A week later, the whiteness disappeared: a lot of dust and small specks appeared. By the way, you can not wash. You can vacuum or wipe with a sponge. Now, I want to share my opinion personally in the AP-110 air purifier review. Of course, being in the room, hardly anyone can feel the result. But, if you turn on and come into the room in just a couple of hours, the thought already arises that something is missing. Another indisputable plus is the ultraviolet lamp. If one of the family members falls ill, turn on the device and minimize the risk of infection. For these reasons alone, it becomes completely clear that such a device will not be superfluous in the house. However, the price is quite loyal.
Conclusion
Thus, the device has an adequate ratio of price and quality. At the same time, a performance of 200 cubic meters per hour is pleasing. That is, in 60 minutes, the device drives air about three times. This is already enough to improve the indoor microclimate. Is it worth buying? You decide. But you must immediately say that the quality of life with such a device is significantly changing for the better. The less dust, the better breathing, healthier sleep. In addition, the air purifier additionally copes with viruses and minimizes the negative impact of charged ions from electrical appliances on the body.
The flowering season is ahead, and for allergy sufferers Ballu AP-110 cleaner will definitely prove to be useful.
