Philips recently launched a new range of Air purifiers, which aims to provide effective measures to combat indoor air pollution and ensuring healthier breathing. As company claims, these air purifiers are designed to fight the most common, yet equally harmful, pollutants at home. Commenting on the occasion, Ms. Jayati Singh Chakraborti, Business Head – Air, Philips India said, “We understand the concerns that arise with an increasing rate of air pollution. As a health and well-being company, we offer solutions that let you control the air you breathe and ensure your family breathes in healthier air.

These purifiers use a four filtration system to clean the air in a room, for greater results and has indicators that alert the user about impure air and filter changes. Starting from separating the large particulate matter in the air from pollen, animal dander etc. in the first two filters; the last two filters extensively clean the finer impurities in the air up to ‘.02 microns’, eliminating harmful gasses and odours and leaving the room fresh and free from any allergens for ‘Pure Air Lovers’ to experience safer and healthier indoor air quality.

Worst Product and service
I have purchased one Air Purifier from Philips in the expectation that it is a good established brand.
But your customer care has dismantled all my hopes of Philips being a good brand.
I purchased Philips after a long time and I am very much disappointed.
Other brands like LG and Samsung are much better at their customer experience.
I purchased air purifier and requested for a demo on PHILIPS Customer Care 18001022929. I was assigned a request number 502260373154.
I was told that I would be contacted in 4 hours and technician would visit at my home for demo.
But unfortunately nobody visited that day.
I again contacted Customer care referring my request number and I was told that they apologized for service failure and said that they were sending reminder on urgent basis. They told that I would be contacted next day within 4 hours.
Again nobody visited or contacted me.
I again contacted the customer acre and the same story again repeated by them.
Now I feel cheated by this third class brand owner and the inefficient customer care staff.
It is a serious service issue and this is the reason that Philips is staying much behind other brands and its sales are regressing.

Ozone Emission from Philips Air Purifier
Dear Mr. Chugh, I found your article on Philips air purifiers quite informative. I wish to purchase a Philips 2000 series model Aera Sense AC2887. I have one doubt. Does this purifier emit ozone? In case yes, then it is very harmful because ozone is a big health hazard. In case it does not, then how does it remove pollens and bacteria besides sub-micron size particulates. As per my understanding, the active charcoal or HEPA filters can not remove bacteria or pollens. Could you please enlighten me about this? Thanks
