Air Purifiers for Healthcare

Protecting patients and raising hospital standards.

Clean air is crucial for crowded hospitals and medical facilities. Especially in Bangladesh, where patients risk catching new infections that delay recovery. Ensuring clean air standards protects patients, supports doctors and staff, and improves overall care. Smart Air purifiers are equipped with HEPA filters that remove up to 99.9% of particles, including ultrafine pollutants as small as 0.3 microns, helping hospitals provide safer environments and faster recovery.

Hospital in Dhaka Uses Sqair Air Purifiers for COVID-19 Protection

Smart Air purifiers protect against viruses and COVID-19, keeping staff and patients safe.

Your medical practice can become a point of infection. To reduce airborne contamination, chemical-free purification with an H13 HEPA filter is recommended by INRS and the French Public Health Council.

Your medical practice exposes your team to viruses and bacteria. Poor indoor air quality can affect their performance, causing headaches, fatigue, and dizziness.

The Blast and Blast Mini deliver industry-leading efficiency with minimal energy consumption and maintenance-free operation. Affordable to run and designed to lower your electricity bill, Smart Air units are the perfect choice for healthcare settings.

Air purifiers ensure whisper-quiet performance, continuous decontamination in both waiting and consultation rooms, eliminating the need to open windows for air renewal.

Smart Air Bangladesh helped us create a cleaner, healthier environment for our patients and staff. Their purifiers continue to make a real difference in our hospital every day.

Smart Air purifiers use the same cleaning principle as most other air purifiers, utilizing HEPA filters and carbon filters. The technology behind air purifiers is not complex and readily available. However, Smart Air is the only air purifier company committed to transparent communication through open-data. We avoid overcomplicating our air purifiers with high markups and marketing gimmicks. Smart Air purifiers are honest, data-backed, and streamlined to do one thing: clean air.

HEPA filter air purifiers like Smart Air’s have been shown to filter out viruses including COVID-19, and lower transmission. View the CDC data on how HEPAs reduce COVID-19 transmission here.

Smart Air’s HEPA air purifiers capture many types of particulate air pollution, including nanoparticles as small as 5 nanometers (1/10th the size of COVID-19) to 30 μm (the size of pollen). The whole range includes viruses, bacteria, PM2.5, PM10, pet allergens, dust, and mold.


Smart Air’s range of carbon filters absorb VOCs (Volatile Organic Compounds) such as formaldehyde, paint thinners, petroleum fuels, or dry cleaning agents. Carbon filters also remove odors.

Learn which filters you need in our in-depth guide on air purifier filters.

UV light air purifiers and ionizers are not recommended for hospital use. First, UV (or UV-C) lights installed in air purifiers are too weak to kill viruses, and the UV lights may also damage the purifier’s HEPA filters. Secondly, ionizers are not effective at cleaning the air, and may in fact produce harmful pollutants such as ozone and VOC in your hospital.

The term ‘medical grade’ is used as a marketing gimmick by some companies to charge higher prices for air purifiers. There is no such standard as ‘medical grade’, and terms like this should be avoided. For hospitals, you should use a HEPA-based air purifier and select your air purifier based on CADR and air changes per hour.

The US CDC recommends air purifiers should have HEPA filters that capture 99.97% of particles or above. This is roughly equivalent to an H13 HEPA filter. However, lower-grade filters can still capture viruses and may actually be more effective at improving ventilation in the hospital.


It is recommended you choose an air purifier based first on its CADR, as opposed to its HEPA filter grade.
