Hi!

I've got the Quorum Airea II Ionizer. My problem is, that it makes a
tickeling/snaping noise. Quite loud so I can't leave it on all the time.
It stopps when I put my hand on it.
What can I do?? Is that normal?
I've opened it - it looks all ok.

Thanx.

The noise is probably electrical arcing.  

BTW, if the unit was marketed as an 'air purifier' it is a good idea
to discard it.  Those devices produce ozone - which is not only
harmful to anything with lungs, it is especially harmful for people
with asthma.

What does that mean?? Is it damaged?

Not 'damaged' - just not well made.  (Typical of these devices.)

Perhaps he got the integrated ionizer/bug-zapper combo?
