With an increase in air pollution levels, life is getting difficult to live in cities, especially in the Delhi NCR.

With PM 2.5 levels are soaring sky high, it is necessary for you to know which Air Purifiers are best for you.

Earlier, we featured an article about Air Purifiers and their need in your lives. With increased pollution levels, we bring to you a comprehensive list of Air Purifiers to suit your needs. Here is our list the best Air Purifiers you can buy in India below Rs. 10,000 and Rs. 20,000 respectively.

But before we take a look at the best Air Purifiers you can buy, let us first understand how they work.

How do Air Purifiers work?

All Air Purifiers fundamentally work in the same way. There are three layers of filters which complete the purification process efficiently. Some purifiers use all 3 and some use a combination of two or only one filters.


The first one is the Pre-filter. This filter is the outermost layer that traps bigger particles so the inner filters can refine the smaller ones.

The second line-of-defense is the HEPA (High Efficiency Particulate Absorber), which is a mesh of random fibers to capture particles like the PM 2.5 pollutant.

The final layer is an Activated Carbon Filter, that removes odours and other malicious elements from the air.

Now that we know how Air Purifiers work, let us take a look at the best Air Purifiers in India under Rs. 10,000 and Rs. 20,000.
