With the Amazon Great Indian Festival you can get great offers and discounts on air purifiers right now, and we’ve picked out the best ones that you should be looking at. Air Purifiers are now a necessity and not a luxury specially if you live in cities where winter brings in a fresh wave of air quality issues, which intensify over the next few months. Of course, with a huge number of air purifiers on the market, finding the right ones to buy is tricky and with the deals on offer it can be even harder to pick.

We can help narrow down the decision with a few different deals that we’ve noticed in the sale. We’ll also break down the things that you need to consider when buying an air purifier. We’ve broken down the workings of how to buy an air purifier, but at the most basic level, you’ve got a fan, that sucks polluted air into the purifier, pushes it through filters (called HEPA filters) that clean up the suspended particles like pollutants and germs, and the pushes it out again into the room. This process of scrubbing the air clean is measured by the CADR or Clean Air Delivery Rate of your air purifier, and the higher the number, the faster that the air is being cleared.

Therefore, when buying an air purifier, the two things to make sure are that it is using a HEPA filter to more effectively clean the air, and whether the CADR is high enough for your purposes. The bigger a room is, the higher the CADR that you need. The American Association of Home Appliances Manufacturers recommends a CADR that’s 2/3 the size of the room — and Fuji has presented a helpful table that lets you see what the minimum CADR is for your requirements.

It has a range of air purifiers starting from under Rs. 10,000 to under Rs. 40,000 — these have a number of different features but more importantly the CADR differs between the models, so take that into account along with the size of your rooms, when making a purchase.
