A technology company has made a new air cleaner for the home. The company is called Dyson. Its new air purifier is called the Pure Cool Link. The purifier captures up to 99.95 per cent of pollutants in the home. Pollutants are the things like dust, smells, chemicals, pollen and smoke. The device cleans the air in a room in an hour. It also checks the air quality to automatically keep it at safe levels. This is great for people who have allergies or for those with asthma. The device can be linked to an app so that users can control it from anywhere in the world.

 

Pollution is a growing problem. Most of us think it is only a danger outside the home. James Dyson, the founder of the Dyson company, said: "We think it is polluted outside of our homes, but the air inside can be far worse." The lead designer at Dyson explained why this can happen. He said: "Modern homes have been built to be more sealed against noise and trap heat, which means the pollutants we create inside the home are also trapped and build up to levels up to five times more polluted indoors than out." The air purifiers will be on sale for between $500 and $650.
