Why Traditional Air Purifiers Fail in Winter & How Karban Solves It

Air pollution is often considered an outdoor issue, but it’s the air inside our homes and offices that can be far more harmful—especially in India during the winter months According to the report, the air inside homes during winter was found to be 15% worse than outside, Across India, the indoor air gets 41% more dirtier during winters. The reason is the temperature drop down, causing people to stay in with close doors and windows. While the health risks posed by air pollution are widely known, indoor air pollution is less discussed.

This raises an important question: Are we really safe indoors after being exposed to outdoor pollution? In reality, indoor air can be as polluted as outdoor air. Outdoor pollutants can easily come inside, and everyday activities like cooking and cleaning add to the problem. That's why it's important to have proper air purification which continuously clean indoor air to keep the air healthy and safe.

What is Indoor Air Pollution?

Indoor air pollution refers to contaminants present inside homes, schools, offices, and other enclosed spaces. It can be caused by common activities such as cooking, cleaning, and the use of certain building materials. During winter, indoor air pollution worsens due to reduced ventilation, leading to the accumulation of harmful particles.

Common Pollutants Found Indoors:

  • Particulate Matter (PM2.5 & PM10): Coming from activities like cooking, cleaning, and smoking, or entering through windows and vents. PM2.5 particles are small enough to penetrate deep into the lungs and bloodstream, posing serious health risks, while PM10 can also affect the lungs. Without proper air purification, these particles can accumulate indoors, leading to respiratory issues and other health problems.
  • Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs): These are harmful gases emitted from common indoor items like paints, furniture, and cleaning products. Prolonged exposure to VOCs can lead to headaches, dizziness, respiratory issues, and other health problems.
  • Mold and Allergens: Mold grows in damp or humid environments and releases spores that can trigger allergic reactions, including sneezing, coughing, and eye irritation. Mold and other allergens can thrive indoors, especially in poorly ventilated or humid spaces.

In India, pollution often reach alarming levels, especially in metropolitan cities during winter months when outdoor pollution seeps indoors, make worse the problem.

The Limitations of Traditional Air Purifiers

Although many households rely on air purifiers to maintain clean air indoors, traditional air purifiers come with several drawbacks that prevent them from delivering the best results.

  1. Limited Coverage

Traditional air purifiers are typically placed in the corner of a room and can only purify the air in that particular space. To cover an entire space, multiple devices are required, which can be costly and inefficient. In addition, certain areas of the home remain unfiltered, leading to inconsistent air quality.

  1. Placement Inefficiencies

Traditional air purifiers are generally placed on the floor or against walls, significantly limiting their effective range. Air circulation is restricted, leading to uneven distribution of clean air and the formation of “dead zones” where pollution persists.

  1. Frequent Maintenance

These purifiers often require frequent filter replacements or cleaning, which increases maintenance costs and contributes to environmental waste. Over time, their filters degrade and become less effective.

  1. Energy Consumption

Traditional air purifiers tend to consume large amounts of electricity. On average, air purifiers in India use between 50 to 120 watts of power per hour, depending on the model.
