For years, the media has been reporting daily on air quality in large cities. There are even many applications that, along with meteorological information, add the level of pollution present in our location. It is clear that we are concerned about the air we breathe and we know how harmful it is to live in a place where the quality is poor for many days of the year.
In fact, according to data from the Spanish Society of Allergology and Clinical Immunology (SEAIC), allergic diseases in Spain affect 33% of the population, which means that if there are 48 million people in Spain, a total of 16 million suffer. allergies. Among allergy sufferers, approximately half (8 million) have respiratory allergies.
Given this high number of allergy sufferers and the population’s concern about air pollution, the Dyson brand has grown in popularity with its purifiers that also act as fans or heaters.
At El Comprador de La Vanguardia we wanted to see up close and test one of these famous air purifiers. Specifically, we have put the Purifier Cool Formaldehyde TP09 Pro model to the test. A purifier and tower fan that captures dust, allergens and up to 99.9% of viruses, including SARS-CoV-2/COVID-19. It even destroys formaldehyde.
We have had the product for a month and we have put it to the test during hot days to check its effectiveness as a fan. On the cooler days we have been able to focus more on its purifying function. Specifically, we have tested it in an 80 m2 apartment located in a central area of ??a large city near Barcelona.
After testing the Dyson Purifier Cool Formaldehyde TP09 Pro for a few weeks, we must say that it has convinced us more as a purifier than as a fan. This device constantly reports on the air quality in our home and chooses the best program to improve it. Therefore, we believe that it works very well in this sense.
However, as a fan it offers a soft air flow that does not provide much cooling. If you buy it thinking more about its ‘fan’ function than the ‘purifier’ function, you may be disappointed. On the other hand, we do think it is a good fan for sleeping because it is very quiet, especially in its night mode.
We have been pleasantly surprised by the control of the device through the mobile application, because it offers a lot of information about the air quality in your home and you can easily control it to adapt it to your needs.
The Purifier Cool Formaldehyde TP09 Pro is a very complete model in the Dyson purifier catalog. In fact, it has a HEPA filter that captures 99.95% of particles down to 0.1 microns, an active carbon layer that eliminates bad odors and gases, and a catalytic filter that breaks down formaldehyde molecules in water and CO2. Therefore, we think it is an ideal purifier for people who suffer from allergies or respiratory problems. We cannot guarantee its effectiveness because there is no person with respiratory difficulties in the house where we have tested it. However, Dyson is characterized by being a brand that manufactures high-quality products and its purifiers are considered some of the best on the market.
Finally, and as a detail to take into account before deciding to buy the Dyson Purifier Cool Formaldehyde TP09 Pro, we must bear in mind that its price is high and that the HEPA filter must be changed every so often (approximately one year), which It represents an expense of 100 euros. Even so, if we have people at home with allergies or respiratory problems, we recommend purchasing it.
