Are you concerned about the quality of the air inside your home? Are you worried about viruses and bacteria in the air? Do you just prefer clean smelling air? Molekule air purification devices can give you all of that and more. These devices have quickly become a favorite of celebrities in the United States and abroad.
What Is a Molekule Device?
Molekule devices are compact, self-contained air purification systems that don’t simply collect pollutants and germs; according to the company, they also destroy them. These devices are effective against a wide range of particles, bacteria, and pathogens, from viruses to mold spores. They even help destroy things like the smell of burnt food. Instead of HEPA filters, they use Photo Electrochemical Oxidation (PECO) to destroy pathogens and particles in the air. According to the company, PECO “involves shining light onto a filter membrane that has been coated with proprietary nanocatalyst, triggering a reaction that breaks down pollutants.”
The sleek, attractive Molekule devices sit on the floor or a shelf and coordinate with almost any design style. Unlike many other home air purifiers, Molekule devices are very quiet. The devices are portable, so you can use them in your Airbnb rental or in a cabin in the woods. The filters are easy to change; you just open the device and swap a new one for the used one.
Molekule consumer devices come in two sizes, the Molekule Air for rooms of up to 600 square feet and the smaller Air Mini and Air Mini+ for rooms up to 250 square feet.
