Abstract
Disclosed is a method of operating an air purifier by executing an artificial intelligence (AI) algorithm and/or a machine learning algorithm in a fifth generation (5G) environment connected for the Internet of Things. A method for operating an air purifier comprises determining whether an indoor situation is a situation in which protection of a filter is necessary based on sensor information from at least one sensor, in response to a determination that the indoor situation is the situation in which protection of the filter is necessary, suspending an air purifying function, and operating one or more ventilation devices. According to the present disclosure, it is possible to protect the air purifier from a situation in which a life of the filter of the air purifier can be drastically shortened.
