Electrostatic / electronic cleaners: These filters work differently from HEPA filters. An electrostatic filter consists of electronically charged plates that impart an ionic charge to floating air particles. This cause the particles are then forced through foam pre filter.

Cleaners with activated carbon: while electrostatic cleaners grab pollutants from the air, you may require a different technology to get rid of odors and invisible chemical contaminants from your living space.

Charcoal filters: These are the perfect choice to combat unwanted odors in your home environment.

Hybrid filters: These are combination of multiple types of air filters. This is a good all-round solution ton your clean air concerns. The only thing to remember is to keep the filter clean. A dirty filter would not be able to give you the desired results.
