This application provides a control method and an
air purifier for an
air purifier, relating to the field of
air purifier technology. The air purifier includes a purifier body and a
first light source. The purifier body has an air inlet and a first chamber, which are in fluid communication. The
first light source is located in the first chamber, and the incident direction of the
first light source intersects the extension direction of the air inlet. The control method includes the following steps: obtaining the working mode of the air purifier, which includes a purification mode; and turning on the first
light source when the air purifier is in purification mode. In this application embodiment, users can intuitively experience the purification effect of the air purifier. Simultaneously, because the first
light source is located in the first chamber, when the purifier body is working, the
air velocity and direction in the first chamber are less affected by interference or fluctuations compared to the outside of the air purifier, which is conducive to the formation of the
Tyndall effect and helps optimize the user experience.
