It might be hard to accept, but several studies have suggested that the quality of indoor air is often worse than outdoor air quality. A prime reason for the same is the indoor air is laden with a number of allergens and contaminants. This pretty much explains why having an air purifier is extremely important in homes as well as workplaces to ensure the wellbeing of all. But the bigger question here is whether you should invest in a basic air purifier or should you go for one with WiFi capabilities. To make the choice easier for you, let’s look at some of the benefits of using one with WiFi capabilities. To start with, you can turn your air purifier unit on and off from your smartphone.
