An air treatment device includes: a casing having an inlet through which air is drawn, and an outlet out of which the air drawn through the inlet is blown; a blade configured to adjust a direction of the air blown out of the outlet; and a generator configured to generate an antimicrobial element that sanitizes the blade. The blade has a first surface, and a second surface opposite to the first surface. The blade is shiftable between a first position in which the antimicrobial element is provided to the first surface and a second position in which the antimicrobial element is provided to the second surface.

The air purifier is provided with a housing having an air intake port and an exhaust port, a filter unit including a photocatalytic filter and housed in a unit housing section within the housing, a light source that irradiates the photocatalytic filter with light, an air blowing fan that generates an air flow passing through the unit housing section, and a contamination sensor provided between the photocatalytic filter and the air blowing fan. In a case where a controller determines that organic substances excessively adheres to the photocatalytic filter on the basis of detection values of the contamination sensor, it drives the light source at the maximum light quantity and drives the air blowing fan at the minimum air speed to refresh the photocatalytic filter.

A humidifier includes a heating element including a porous structure of electrically resistive and thermally conductive material configured to substantially vaporise liquid that is passed through the porous structure. The porous structure has a liquid inlet and a vapour outlet. The humidifier further includes an outer housing surrounding at least a portion of the porous structure for containing the liquid and vapour within the porous structure. The porous structure includes a first electrical connector and a second electrical connector, the first and second connectors being configured for receiving electrical power and applying a voltage across the porous structure to generate heat.
