    It's funny the person who made this video Paddy is one of the best air purifier designers in the world. He founded a company called Smart Air and his company exports air purifiers around the world which are installed in schools and hospitals.

    Why cant monitors measure PM 10 or PM 1 or PM 2.5 for that matter. How can you tell how accurate a monitor really is?

    • @SmartAirFilters
      @SmartAirFilters  2 года назад

      A typical household air quality monitor uses a laser to count and measure the number of particles in the air. This laser can’t measure the exact number of PM10 or PM1 or PM2.5 particles, just the total number of ‘all particles’ in the air. Most air quality monitors then use this number, and a calibrated formula to estimate the PM2.5 concentration from the number.

    So no need to use Gas mask to protect from PM2.5 and pm10?

      Yes, not at all! Even the simple surgical masks works wonders

    I think i have allergies or something else. My nose is blocked all the time. So i want to know my bedroom air quality. I bought a air quality monitor and it is not accurate. Dissapointed. I just use dyson v10 to vacuum. My bedroom is about 450 square feet.

      Hey sorry to hear that and it must be extremely frustrating to deal with allergies. If you're looking for a reliable air quality monitor, you can check out the AirVisual Pro Air Pollution Monitor on our website (smartairfilters.com/en/product/airvisual-pro/).
      We also wrote an article about coping with seasonal allergy symptoms. Hope this helps!

    I don't think your math is right. 1/50 is to 1/5 ten times smaller. You're comparing 2.5um to 10um which is only a 4:1 ratio. Something is not right.

      In the video, Paddy is comparing PM10 to the width of a human hair. A human hair is approximately 50 microns in diameter. With PM10 being 10 microns in diameter, its roughly 5 times smaller than the width of a human hair. Hope that clears it up!
