Frequently Asked Questions
An algae air purifier is a device that uses living algae cultures to clean the air. These algae cultures are usually housed within a photobioreactor. These systems harness the natural process of photosynthesis, where algae absorb pollutants like carbon dioxide (CO2) and release oxygen (O2), for a more sustainable and effective way to purify the environment.
The Vayu air purifier is highly effective against airborne particles, including dust, pollen, pet dander, bacteria, and viruses. HEPA (High-Efficiency Particulate Air) filters are specifically designed to remove particles of all sizes, thereby increasing their effectiveness in reducing airborne infections.
Yes, maintenance and parts replacements are necessary for algae purifiers for the home. Regular cleaning and timely replacement of filters or consumable parts are recommended to ensure efficient operation.
Our algae air purifier needs refilling when the algae run out of food. This typically happens after 30 days, and you can easily know it's time to replace the algae when it starts to look less vibrant, turns a darker green, or stops removing carbon dioxide and producing oxygen efficiently.
Yes, our eco-friendly air purifier can effectively remove allergens like dust and pollen. Vayu captures airborne particles, dust, pollen, pet dander, and mold spores-all common allergy triggers.
Vayu air purifier reduces CO2 levels by up to 70% in minutes and removes PM2.5, formaldehyde, and TVOC. It is designed to filter out particulate matter and certain gases.
No, our Algae Air purifier is designed to be relatively quiet, with noise levels comparable to a soft hum or white noise.
Yes, you can install this air purifier in a large room, but it is important to choose one with a suitable Clean Air Delivery Rate (CADR) for the space. If the purifier has a higher CADR, it can clean a larger volume of air.
Yes, our eco-friendly air purifier really works in your house by improving indoor air quality and removing airborne particles as well as pollutants.
Yes, some doctors recommend algae air purifiers for those affected by allergies, asthma, or other respiratory problems. While it is not a cure-all, it helps to reduce airborne allergens and irritants and improves indoor air quality. You should be aware of the limitations of air purifiers and other measures, such as good hygiene and ventilation.
Use an air purifier during times of allergy or asthma attacks, especially when pets are in the house, or whenever you smell a pungent odor or heavy dust. Also useful when living in homes near busy roads or during bushfire seasons when smoke enters.
You can place it in the middle of the room, away from walls and furniture that could obstruct airflow, or consider placing the purifier near pollutant sources such as windows, kitchens, or wherever pets hang out.
