Improve Allergy Symptoms
Air purifiers with HEPA filters trap those tiny allergy-causing particles, like pollen, pet dander, and dust mites, so you can enjoy a sneeze-free day. Run it on high during allergy season for maximum relief.
Control Humidity Levels
Use a dehumidifier in damp areas like basements to prevent mold growth, or a humidifier in dry areas to prevent dryness in your skin and respiratory system. Ideal humidity levels are between 30-50%.
Fans Can Help You Sleep Better: White noise, anyone?
Many people use fans not just for the cool air, but also for the soothing hum that helps block out other noises. If you live in a noisy area, a fan can help create a calm, peaceful sleep environment.
Oil-Filled Radiators Are Super Efficient: Did you know?
Oil-filled radiators take longer to heat up, but once they do, they continue to radiate heat even after they’ve been turned off.
Don’t Squash the Wires
Keep your heated blanket in top shape by rolling it loosely instead of folding it tight. This way, the wires stay safe, and your blanket stays warm and cozy for longer!
Great for Small Spaces
A radiators compact design mean they can fit snugly in tight corners or under desks, keeping your workspace cozy without taking up too much room.

FAQs
- Do electric fires use a lot of electricity?
The amount of electricity used by an electric fire varies depending on their wattage. They are typically cheaper to run than their gas counterparts and can even be a better alternative to central heating if you’re just trying to heat one room.
To figure out exactly how much it would cost to run an electric fireplace, you just need to multiply the wattage by the cost of electricity. For example, if the appliance uses 1500 Watts and your rate is 22p per kWh, your electric fireplace costs around 33p an hour to run.- Is it expensive to run an air conditioner?
The cost of running an air conditioner can vary based on a few factors, its energy usage, the amount of time it runs for, and your electricity tariff. For example, if it uses 1500 Watts and your rate is 22p per kWh, the air conditioner will cost around 33p an hour to run.
Just bear in mind that bigger rooms will need a more powerful air conditioner, and this could increase costs.
- Do air purifiers get rid of smells?
While air purifiers can get rid of nasty smells from the air, they may not be able to remove them from surfaces such as furniture, carpets or walls. If you want to quickly shift a bad smell from your room, then using a higher setting can often give you a breath of fresh air before you know it.
If you’re looking to clear the air, make sure you get an air purifier that’s perfect for the room it’s in. You can find the maximum room size of each humidifier in the product specification section of our product pages.
- Do dehumidifiers stop mould?
Dehumidifiers can help prevent the growth of mould by reducing the humidity of a room and depriving it of water. However, they can’t kill mould fully or address the root cause of why it’s forming.
If you want to find the right dehumidifier for you, think about the size of the room, how humid it is and how much water it will need to store – a bigger capacity means fewer trips to the sink. Luckily, we’ve popped this information across our product pages, so you can easily find what you need.
- Can air conditioning be used for heating?
Yes, many air conditioners can be used to heat your home on cold nights as well as keeping things nice and cool on those summer days.
Electric heaters are great for efficiently heating your home, and at AO we’ve got a wide selection to choose from. Let’s go over some of the key features that make them so special.
There are different types of electric heaters with their own unique advantages. Convection heaters warm the air in a room to a consistent temperature, while fan heaters blow heated air around the room. Radiant heaters emit super-safe infrared radiation for instant warmth, and oil-filled heaters use electricity to heat oil, which then radiates heat outwards.
If you want more bang for your buck, go for a heater with a high energy efficiency rating, a programmable timer, and a built-in thermostat. That way you’ll have total control over it without having to worry about a shocking bill at the end of the month.
All about air purifiers and air conditioners
Air purifiers and air conditioners are a breath of fresh air that keep your space free from stuffiness, dust and nasty allergens.
Air purifiers help remove contaminants and unpleasant odours, which can be especially handy for anyone with allergies or asthma. Don’t forget, getting rid of lingering smells effectively means you should think about the size of the room before you buy, otherwise those pongs will persist.
Air conditioners, on the other hand, are versatile little gadgets that give you the best of both worlds – cooling relief in the summer and cosy warmth in winter. Of course, their energy use and running costs depend on their wattage and how long you use them for, just like electric heaters. When choosing an air conditioner, make sure you choose the right size for the room it’s going to live in for maximum effectiveness.
