Welcome back Home Enthusiasts! We're trustedshoppingguide.com and today we are in the
Home. In this video, two Air Purifier brands will be going head to head. We have the Honeywell HEPA
Tower Air Purifier and the Shark Air Purifier. You already know how important it is to clean
your house regularly, but there is one aspect that is often overlooked: the air. Using an air
purifier can help ensure cleaner air, but not all air purifiers are created equal.
In today's Brand Wars, we've chosen the top two competitors in our air purifier review.
On the left corner, we have the Honeywell HEPA Tower Air Purifier and on the right corner, we
have the Shark Air Purifier, both of which earned 5 badges from our team. If you've seen the other
brand wars video concerning air purifiers, this is an addition to that because we'll
be dealing with two new brands that have yet to be released on trustedshoppingguide.com.
So sit back, relax, and wait to see who will emerge victorious in this air purifier battle!
If you are interested in the other Air Purifiers that we reviewed, do check out our Air Purifier
review video linked below. If you want direct links to the products themselves,
all these links are also listed below too. So, without further ado, let s start the brand wars!
The first category that these Air Purifiers will be going toe to toe with is their Room Size.
The size of your room is an important consideration when choosing an air purifier.
Larger air purifiers are required for greater spaces, so make sure you buy
one that can work in a space 20 to 40 percent larger than the room for the best results.
The Honeywell HEPA Tower Air Purifier is a smaller version of the Honeywell
HPA160 tower air purifier. It's a nice-looking unit, with a satin silver finish on the controls
and a gloss black insert panel, and is made for small rooms under 75 square feet.
The Shark Air Purifier is a floor-mounted air purifier that can clean up to 1,000
square feet of space. It distributes air efficiently throughout our entire first
floor and measures 32 inches in height, 17 inches in width, and 9 inches in depth.
We cannot exactly identify the winner for this round since the size of an air purifier is loosely
correlated to the size of the room it can effectively clean. The best option for your
nursery is probably not the ideal solution for a room three or four times larger.
For that, we decided to award a point to each of the two products.
The second category that these two brands will be going toe to toe with is their
Air Change per hour or ACH. If you have allergies or asthma
and want to find an air purifier that can help you control your symptoms,
look at the air change per hour or ACH rate. ACH refers to the number of times
an air purifier can filter the entire volume of air in the treatment space each hour.
The Honeywell HEPA Tower Air Purifier has an ACH value of 5, which means it can clean all of the
air in a 75-square-foot room in 12 minutes when used at its highest speed setting.
The ACH number of the Shark Air Purifier, on the other hand, indicates that it can handle up to
1,000 square feet. This implies it can clean the air in a room at one air change per hour,
which means cleaning the whole room will take longer, especially if it is large.
The greater the ACH value, the better the machine is at purifying the air inside a room. With an ACH
of 5, the Honeywell HEPA Tower Air Purifier is unquestionably the winner of this round!
The third category that these two brands will be going toe to toe with is their Clean
Air Delivery Rate or CADR. The CADR is another important
factor to consider as it you how big of a room the air purifier can handle.
The Honeywell HEPA Tower Air Purifier has CADR of 62 for dust, 48 for smoke,
and 75 for pollen. According to these ratings, it is suitable for cleanrooms up to 75 square feet.
On the flip side, the Shark Air Purifier has a CADR of 133 for all dust, smoke, and pollen,
indicating that it can effectively clean the air in any room, even the bigger ones.
In general, the higher the CADR, the more particles the air purifier can remove
and the wider the area it can clean. The Shark Air Purifier received a CADR of 133 for all dust,
smoke, and pollen, as opposed to the Honeywell HEPA Tower Air Purifier,
which had different yet relatively lower CADR values for its dust, smoke, and pollen. With the
Shark Air Purifier delivering a higher CADR, they prove to be the obvious winner in this round.
The fourth category that these two brands will be going toe to toe with is their Air Filtration.
When purchasing an air purifier, the most important factor is choosing the appropriate
filtering technology for your unique air quality needs. Filter variants can help
with many sorts of indoor air pollution so it is important to choose the appropriate
filter to meet your air quality standards. A carbon pre-filter with a layer of activated
carbon in the Honeywell HEPA Tower Air Purifier filters out odors, gases, and
other volatile organic compounds. There is also a HEPA filter for removing particulate pollutants.
Contrastingly, the Shark Air Purifier has a filter that was created specifically to make
it more usable. It has a Shark Anti-Allergen HEPA filter with Advanced Odor Lock, which effectively
traps allergens and odors in the air. It's also designed to meet HEPA filtration standards, which
means it can filter 99.7 percent of particles down to 0.3 microns when air travels through it.
Shark also uses an activated carbon filter with pellets helps to reduce odors in the home.
This includes cooking odors, pet odors, and the odors associated with indoor smoking.
A good air purifier should contain a variety of filters to ensure that the
air is adequately cleaned. Only the Shark Air Purifier has them, so our team decided
to award it a point in this category. The fifth and final category that these
two brands will be going toe to toe with is their Noise Level.
It's important to consider the noise level of an air purifier,
especially if it'll be used in a bedroom or living area. This is one of the reasons why you should
get an air cleaner that is appropriately sized for the space you intend to utilize.
If the air purifier you purchase is too small for the size of the room it will be placed in,
it will run at faster rates than usual to compensate, which can also mean that it
will constantly be at maximum volume. The Honeywell HEPA Tower Air Purifier
has a sound output that ranges from 39 to 56 decibels depending on the fan speed.
The Shark Air Purifier is named for the appliance's four powerful 58-decibel fans,
which help in the even distribution of air around the room and airflow throughout the filter.
It can also work quietly because of its small size, causing no disruption to you or your home.
The Honeywell HEPA Tower Air Purifier is undeniably the quieter of the two,
with a decibel range of 39 to 56, which makes it the victor of this round.
The battle between the Honeywell HEPA Tower Air Purifier and the Shark Air Purifier has
finally come to an end. This race was close, with both air purifiers scoring three points apiece,
resulting in a draw. We found that the HEPA Tower Air Purifier is a fantastic device for the money,
with a sleek design and excellent room coverage. However, if you want fast performance, low noise,
and real-time results, the Shark Air Purifier is a good option.
And there you have it folks the battle between the Honeywell HEPA Tower Air
Purifier and the Shark Air Purifier has finally ended. If you have any contenders
