An ionic air purifier does not need a filter change. This eliminates the chances of reduced performances that may occur as a result of clogged filters. You are assured of clean air at all times by using this kind of machines. This consistency has resulted in their growing popularity amongst many households.

There is a type of this kind of machine that is developed using the latest technology. It incorporates the Ozone Guard air filter. It is able to convert harmful gases into purified oxygen. This makes it more beneficial because it is not only cleans the surrounding air but it adds more fresh air too.

By using ionic air purifiers, one is able to reduce money set aside for health. This is because you will have reduced the incidences of asthma attacks, allergic reaction and the chances of catching airborne diseases. These occurrences do cost a lot of money in terms of medication and consultation, when you have to treat them in hospitals. Time that would have been spent on other productive things is spent either in bed or nursing the sick. You and members of your households will be able to enjoy good health and even have some money to spend on other things.

Here are some basic tips on how to make your air conditioner more efficient:

1. Have your air conditioner professionally serviced twice a year.
2. Make sure your ductwork is sealed. If you’re not sure, contact FPL or your energy provider for an “Energy Audit.” They will check your ductwork for leaks as well as sufficient insulation. Depending on your situation, FPL offers “Watt Saver” certificates that can be used to offset ductwork repairs done by an FPL participating contractor.
3. Install clean air filters every month during the cooling season.
4. Find and seal all cracks in your house. Small cracks are not uncommon around seams, corners and other areas. These can be sealed with caulk.
5. Find and seal any gaps or cracks around windows and doors. This can be accomplished with weatherizing tape or with caulk.
6. Use high-efficiency windows and doors or storm windows and doors. Well-insulated windows can reduce your cooling cost by 25-50%.
7. Add weather-stripping to windows and doors to create a tight seal. If you are not planning to upgrade your windows and you want to achieve better efficiency, the same weather-stripping used in winter can be used to seal and insulate these areas.
8. Use major appliances during the coolest part of the day or evening. Appliances generate heat when they are in use, particularly dishwashers, washing machines and dryers. Using these appliances during the cooler parts of the day causes less stress on the working of your air conditioner.
9. Use shades and blinds to block the heat and UV rays from the sun. Shades and blinds provide more than privacy – they also deflect heat from the sun and the UV rays that could damage your furniture and carpeting.
10. Add UV coatings or films to exterior windows. Many newer windows have low-e coatings which allow light to enter the room but block the heat and the UV rays. These coatings can be added to the windows by professionals or you can buy and apply sheets of UV deflecting film.
11. Check the insulation around windows and doors. These are the greatest opportunities for gaps and cracks that allow heat exchange.
12. Check the insulation in your attic (most heat exchange occurs through the roof). Be sure you have the right kind and amount of insulation and that your attic is properly vented.
13. Seal off any unused/unconditioned parts of the house so cooled air will not escape into these areas and heat will not enter the main part of the house
14. Use ventilation fans to carry heat and steam from the bathrooms and kitchen

These steps will make any air conditioning system more efficient. This will enable you to save energy and cost and reduce the demand on fossil fuels.
