Singapore enjoys excellent air quality all year round. In fact, in 2022 alone, our Pollutant Standards Index (PSI) remained within the Good and Moderate range most days. But as an urban city, Singapore is not entirely safe from pollution—there are still harmful substances like sulphur dioxide, ozone, particulate matter, and more, floating in the air. So, if you’d like to keep your indoor air quality at healthy levels to protect yourself and your family, it’s time to invest in an air disinfection machine.
However, with so many options available, how do you choose the right one for your needs? Fear not, because we’ve got you covered. Here’s a guide to help you navigate the world of air purification and why you should choose BioCair in your quest for cleaner, safer air.
1. Identify Your Air Quality Needs
Whether you’re shopping for clothes or, in this case, choosing a good air purifier, one size will never fit all. You could be battling with allergies, or asthma, or simply aiming to enhance the overall air quality of your home. Regardless of your goal, the first step to finding the perfect product should be to identify your specific needs.
Every air disinfection machine has its distinct features that help with eliminating different particles. Some air purifiers contain activated carbon filters that remove volatile organic compounds, while others are fitted with HEPA filters that clean away particles like pollen and pet dander. If you’re looking to invest in an air disinfection machine, you’ll need to know that they work differently from purifiers too. Rather than letting air pass through filters to remove particles before the air is released back into your surroundings, they disperse dry-mist disinfectants to kill pathogens found in the air. As such, the disinfectant you use with the machine also matters. You’ll need a quality solution that can effectively disinfect your air to keep your space hygienic.

BioCair’s BC-65 uses 65 advanced ion-energising technologies to eliminate 99.999% of harmful microorganisms within a minute of contact. It is a non-toxic, non-irritant, and alcohol-free disinfectant solution that can penetrate cell walls of airborne and surface germs and eliminate them from the air and surface. If you’re looking for a solution to reduce airborne bacteria, viruses, fungi, or spores that cause respiratory infections or problems, use BioCair’s air disinfectants.
2. Check for Certifications
Aside from looking for advanced features and technologies, you should also be paying attention to the air purifier’s accreditations while shopping and ensuring that it’s certified based on stringent industry standards for performance and safety. This includes the disinfecting solution.
BioCair’s air disinfection machines and solutions go through rigorous testing procedures in highly accredited laboratories so that you can be sure you’re using safe and effective products. To find out more about BioCair’s testing and certifications, visit this page.
3. Review Maintenance Requirements
Think you can enjoy clean air all year round by simply plugging in your air disinfection machine? Unfortunately, that’s not going to happen. Your machine needs regular maintenance, including air filter replacements and scheduled washes, to deliver a clean indoor space. So, don’t just buy the most expensive air purifying system and have it installed; consider the steps required to maintain your chosen product and whether you’ll be able to clean it religiously.
If you’re looking for one that’s easy to use and service, choose BioCair! The air disinfection machines are designed to make usage and maintenance easy. With only two parts—a base and a water tank—you can effortlessly clean your machine and help it serve you for longer.
4. Consider the Size of Your Room
Lastly, size matters, especially when it comes to selecting the right air disinfection machine for your home—a small system is not going to effectively disinfect the corners of your large home. So, be sure to consider your room size to optimise air quality.
Certain room sanitisers can only disperse mist up to 35 sqm, while others, such as the BioCair Classic 250 Dry-Mist AirDisinfection Machine, can generate a dry-mist disinfectant capable of disinfecting spaces as large as 65 sqm, making it suitable for most rooms in homes. If you’re unsure which machine you’ll need, here’s a rough estimate: standard 4-room Build-To-Order flats are between 90 and 110 sqm.
