Thanks to mother nature, we get an ample amount of air, which is essential for survival free; however, due to increasing pollution, pollen, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and smoke, getting clean air at home is becoming increasingly difficult. These pollutants are often the primary cause of allergies, asthma attacks, and sinus problems. In addition to the rise in air pollution levels, low humidity can also impact air quality because dry air can cause nosebleeds, chapped lips, dry skin, and even cracked furniture.
Typically, an air purifier and a humidifier are required to create an indoor space conducive to better breathing and prevent these health issues in your household. While the humidity helps reduce your congestion and dry throat, the cleaner air can help alleviate allergies, if you suffer from them. However, instead of buying two separate machines, many people are investing in a combination unit of humidifier and air purifier. This device can run together or simultaneously depending on the user preference and would be more economical than buying two units separately, also saving space and reduce energy bills.
While there are several combination units available in the market, the Boneco W200 Air Washer 2-in-1 Humidifier & Air Purifier stands out on top. Not only does this evaporative humidifier add moisture to the air in your home, but it is also capable of effectively cleaning the air and removing harmful particulates such as dust, pollen, and allergens.
The Boneco W200 features a high-efficiency evaporative mat that acts as a filter for the water that sits in the tank.

This device can effectively clear up to 99% of the pollen and household dust from a room up to 540-square feet.
