The LG PuriCare AeroTower cleans your air with just a whisper

Add as a preferred source on Google

The constant presence of the pandemic during the past two years has placed an increased focus on indoor air quality. As the temperatures outside drop, why not purify the air while also keeping it warm? LG’s new PuriCare AeroTower is perfect for exactly that. Best of all, you can use it year-round — the air purifier works as a fan and a heater in one. The LG PuriCare AeroTower is scheduled to make its debut at CES 2022.

The AeroTower can turn a full 360-degrees and deliver air in one of three modes: Direct, Wide, and Diffusion.

Direct Mode channels air at a narrow angle through the Air Guard diffuser, while Wide mode provides a broad horizontal breeze. Diffusion Mode provides a vertical, indirect flow — it stops the air in a room from feeling stagnant without blasting you directly. You can choose to add heat to the air flow (on select models of the AeroTower), up to 86 degrees Fahrenheit.

Perhaps the most noteworthy part of the AeroTower is its volume. At only 23 decibels (literally whisper-quiet, as a whisper is rated at 25 decibels), the AeroTower can fit in a home office without subjecting anyone in your video calls to the constant hum of a fan.

The LG Puricare AeroTower utilizes a multistage HEPA filter to capture up to 99.97 percent of particulates, down to 0.3 microns in size. It also uses LG UVnano technology to destroy any bacteria that might build up on the fan over prolonged use. This filter means that no matter the time of year, whether you’re fighting off pollen or dealing with a dusty HVAC system after six months of no heat, the AeroTower can make it just a little easier to breathe indoors. This is particularly useful if you have pets that shed often.

You can check collected air quality data through the purifier’s LCD screen or through the LG ThinQ mobile app. You can also use the app to change settings on the AeroTower, even if you aren’t at home. The stylish look of the air purifier means it will fit into most any home decor, and the two color options — beige and silver — give you even more options.

Information on availability and other details about the LG PuriCare AeroTower Air Purifying Fan will be available at CES 2022.

Why Your Next Outdoor Security Camera Might Need Three Lenses
EZVIZ Puts Triple-Lens Outdoor Security in the Spotlight at IFA 2026

Monitoring a home often means watching several things at once. Just as a car pulls into the driveway, a visitor might approach the front gate, or movement could catch your eye in the side garden. For many European homes, this is a familiar scenario.

The challenge becomes even more noticeable when a property includes a backyard, detached garage, or swimming pool. Installing another camera for every angle is one solution, but it also means more devices to set up, manage, and maintain.

I played with Yarbo’s yard robot at IFA, and now I want one for every season
One tracked robot, a new job for every season
Yarbo M-series Featured 2

I’ll admit, I wasn’t expecting a yard robot to be one of the more entertaining things I’d get my hands on at IFA 2026. Then I walked over to Yarbo’s booth and started playing around with the M Series.

The basic idea is wonderfully simple: instead of buying a different robot for every outdoor chore, Yarbo gives you one tracked robotic Core and a collection of attachments. Swap the module, and suddenly your robot has a completely different job. Mowing? Yep. Snow? Yep. Leaves? Yep. And there’s even a trimmer module on the way.

The future of smart homes may not be more devices, but better-designed experiences

Minimalism has reshaped almost every corner of the modern home. Kitchens hide appliances behind seamless cabinetry, televisions have become slimmer and more discreet, and storage is increasingly designed to disappear into the architecture. The goal isn’t simply to own better things. It’s to create spaces that feel calmer, cleaner, and more intentional. Smart home technology, however, has largely moved in the opposite direction. Every upgrade seems to introduce another speaker, another controller, another light, or another connected device competing for space and attention.
