Hepa filters are traditionally used in airplanes or hospitals (ICUs) to clean the air of particles such as viruses and bacteria; And now with the arrival of cold, it makes them a key element against the high risk of contagion by aerosols indoors, capturing viruses and expelling clean air in closed spaces. The mechanism is simple because it is a box with portable filters with a fan that draws air through it and then expels it clean into the room.

The filter is made up of a mesh of fibers placed randomly, which are usually layers of cellulose, synthetic fiber or glass and are arranged in an accordion shape in order to acquire more capacity to capture the particles.
