%X The study aimed to design and develop an eco-air purifier using an air filter with activated carbon. The developed air purifier helps students, faculty, staff, and other stakeholders in the educational institution breathe fresh air in a room. A descriptive-development design was applied in the study. A systematic approach was employed for the development of the product. The functional acceptability of the project was assessed by three expert evaluators, consisting of electrical engineers in compliance with parts and hardware quality standards. The product was assessed in terms of functional stability, performance efficiency, usability, reliability, maintainability, portability, and also the quality of the product when using it in terms of effectiveness, efficiency, satisfaction, freedom from risk, and context coverage. The findings of the study revealed that the project performed its functionality well, performance efficiency, usability, reliability, maintainability, and portability, and when in use in terms of effectiveness, efficiency, satisfaction, freedom from risk, and content coverage, it obtained an adjectival rating of very satisfactory from the evaluators. The findings implied that the product was able to meet the criteria, specifically in safety, where it exhibited an absence of harm when in use. The development of an eco-air purifier could harness its power in sustaining and producing quality air in the room, thereby improving the lives of every student, faculty, and staff member, as well as other stakeholders, particularly during pandemics.
