Kenko Air Purifier
Negative Ion Generator
and gives you 99.99% pollutant free air
Negative Ion Generator
Negative Ions bring us closer to nature and…:
… are beneficial to your health (positive ions are harmful)
… are abundant in nature (especially around mountains, beaches, forests
… enhance immune function
… help to alleviate depression, relieve stress, and boost our daytime energy
… clear the air of airborne allergens such as pollen, muold spores, bacteria and viruses
Kenko Air Filter gives you 99.99% pollutant free air
Frequently Asked Questions
- Can air purifiers capture the coronavirus?
Breathe easier with cleaner, fresher, more energising air!
The KenkoAir® Purifier brings clean, fresh air indoors every day, eliminating allergens, removing pollution with an ultra-clean three level filtration system and a negative ion generator – better for you and our environment.
The three-level filtration system captures up to 99.95% of 0.3-micron particles in the air. (To give you something to compare that to…the influenza virus measures 0.43 microns, Bacteria have sizes between 0.6 and 1 micron, or particles emitted by vehicles – PM25 (2.5 microns) or PM10 (10 microns))
A pre-filter acts as a physical barrier or trap to remove large particles – great if you have a pet!
An activated carbon absorption filter removes airborne gas and a HEPA H13 filter helps to remove ultra-fine particles such as airborne allergens.
Negative Ion Technology replicates the air found in nature‘s setting such as by a lake or a forest bringing clean, refreshing air whilst operating an Ozone free operation.
HEPA H13 filter
tackles pollen, dander and dust allergens from pets and captures up to 99.95% of 0.3-micron particles in the air

What are Negative Ions?
Contrary to their name, there is nothing negative or unhealthy about negative ions. Negative ions are beneficial for the human body (while positive ions are harmful). Negative ions are odourless, tasteless, and invisible molecules that we inhale in abundance in certain environments. You will find the highest concentrations of negative ions in natural, clean air.
Ions are invisible charged particles in the air – either molecules or atoms, which bear an electric charge, either positive or negative.
Most forms of pollution, toxic chemicals, pet dander, pollen, mold, and other harmful chemicals in the air carry a positive electrical charge, making them positive ions.
We inhale negative ions in environments such as the ocean, mountains, forests, and waterfalls. The air circulating in the mountains and the beach is said to contain tens of thousands of negative ions — Much more than the average home or office building, which contain dozens or hundreds, and many register a flat zero.
What is a Negative Ion Generator? What does it do?
Negative ion generators aren’t all created equal. The idea is to emit negative ions which not only help to purify the air but also have a positive effect on the body.
However in the process of generating negative ions, some units can also emit Ozone which is a harmful gas – a lung irritant and is considered dangerous to asthmatics.
Ensure that your air purifier DOES NOT emit ozone before purchasing. (Nikken’s Kenko Air Purifier DOES NOT emit Ozone)
air purification
Negative ions help to clear the air of airborne allergens by attaching themselves to positively charged particles in large numbers which then become too heavy to remain airborne and fall to the floor.
more energy
Once they reach our bloodstream, negative ions are believed to produce biochemical reactions that increase levels of the mood chemical serotonin, helping to alleviate depression, relieve stress, and boost energy.
natural anti-depressant
Columbia University studies of people with winter and chronic depression show that negative ion generators relieve depression as much as antidepressants.
Does the Kenko Air Purifier emit Ozone?
No. The Kenko Air Purifier is a filter and Negative ion generator that DOES NOT produce Ozone (unlike other air filtration systems).
Ozone is classified as a toxic gas, due to clinical studies that show the detrimental effect on health when inhaled.
What area does the Kenko Air Purifier cover?
Covers an area of: 313 sq ft / 29 m2 / 69.6 m3
How much energy does it consume?
Consumes 55 watts – It is an environmentally responsible air filtration system due to its low consumption of electrical energy.
The KENKOAIR PURIFIER has the Energy Star rating, granted by the United States Environmental Protection Agency. It is only granted to indoor air filters that are 35% more efficient than a standard model, and that allow an annual saving of 215 kilowatt hours.
What is a HEPA filter?
HEPA is an acronym for High Efficiency Particulate Air. HEPA filters capture variously sized particles within a multi-layered netting usually made out of very fine fiberglass threads (much thinner than a strand of human hair!) with varying sized gaps. The filter is composed of a dense sheet of small fibers pleated and sealed in a metal or plastic frame.
True HEPA filters are effective at removing ultra fine particles (think: dust, dander, pollen, mold and other common allergens in the home). The industry standard is that the unit must be able to remove at least 99.95% of particulates measuring 0.3 micron diameter in a lab setting.
What Maintenance does the Kenko Air Filter need?
- The exterior is cleaned with a dry or damp cloth without any abrasive product.
- The air inlet and outlet (opening on the outer surface), with a soft brush.
- Every 2 months the pre-filter should be cleaned: gently vacuuming it or it can be immersed in warm water if it is very dirty, with a small amount of dish detergent (in this case it should be allowed to dry completely before reinstalling)
- Every 6 months or when the indicator light is flashing, the Deodorizing Filter and H13 filter should be replaced.
