• wherein the filter frame is disposed so that air of the first fluid path moved by the first blower device flows through the first filter unit supported inside the first filter installation unit, then through the first filter hole, then through the first blower device, and air of the second fluid path moved by the second blower device flows through the second filter unit supported inside the second filter installation unit, then through the second filter hole, then through the second blower device;
• and
• a control circuit unit to control the home appliance, accommodated in the filter frame between the first blower device and the second blower device,
• wherein the air moved by the first blower device is directed to the sides of the case home appliance by the first fluid path and the air moved by the second blower device is directed to the top of the case home appliance by the second fluid path.

An air cleaner, comprising:

• at least one filter unit a first filter unit and a second filter unit to filter air flowing through at least one inlet from outside a front of a case of the air cleaner;
• a first outlet and a second outlet to release the filtered air in different directions, respectively, the first outlet located on a side of the case of the air cleaner and the second outlet located on a top of the case of the air cleaner;
• a first fluid path, arranged inside the case, through which the filtered air is guided toward one of the first outlet and the second outlet;
• a first fan in the first fluid path;
• a second fluid path, arranged inside the case and separate from the first fluid path, through which the filtered air is guided toward another one the other of the first outlet and the second outlet;
• a second fan in the second fluid path;
• a control button configured to input a command and located on a top side of the air cleaner;
• a filter frame including
• a first filter installation unit configured to support the at least one first filter unit inside the first filter installation unit, with the first fan being outside of the first filter installation unit, and a first filter hole of the filter frame being between the first filter unit and the first fan,
• a second filter installation unit configured to support the second filter unit inside the second filter installation unit, with the second fan being outside of the second filter installation unit, and a second filter hole of the filter frame being between the second filter unit and the second fan,
• wherein the filter frame is disposed so that air of the first fluid path flows along the first fluid path through the first filter unit supported inside the first filter installation unit, then through the first filter hole, then through the first fan, and air of the second fluid path flows along the second fluid path through the second filter unit supported inside the second filter installation unit, then through the second filter hole, then through the second fan;
• and
• a control circuit unit to control the air cleaner accommodated in the filter frame,
• wherein the first fluid path and the second fluid path are separately controlledand release the filtered air from the top of the case through the second outlet which is in a different direction than filtered air released through the first outlet.

An air cleaner comprising:

• a case;
• a plurality of air inlets for air to flow into the case from outside the case;
• a first blower device inside the case to force air to flow through one of the plurality of air inlets;
• a first filter unit inside the case to filter the air forced to flow through the one of the plurality of air inlets by the first blower device;
• a first outlet located so as to release the air filtered by the first filter unit out of the case in a sideways direction from the case;
• a second blower device inside the case to force air to flow through a different one of the plurality of air inlets;
• a second filter unit inside the case to filter the air forced to flow through the different one of the plurality of air inlets by the second blower device;
• a second outlet located so as to release the air filtered by the second filter unit out of the case in an upward direction from the case so that the air released by the second outlet is released in a different direction than the air released by the first outlet;
• a filter frame, inside the case, and including
• a first filter installation unit configured to support the first filter unit inside the first filter installation unit, with the first blower device being outside of the first filter installation unit, and a first filter hole of the filter frame being between the first filter unit and the first blower device, and
• a second filter installation unit configured to support the second filter unit inside the second filter installation unit, with the second blower device being outside the second filter installation unit, and a second filter hole of the filter frame being between the second filter unit and the second blower device,
• wherein the filter frame is disposed so that air forced to flow through the one of the plurality of air inlets by the first blower device flows through the first filter unit supported inside the first filter installation unit, then through the first filter hole, then through the first blower device to the first outlet, and air forced to flow through the different one of the plurality of air inlets by the second blower device flows through the second filter unit supported inside the second filter installation unit, then through the second filter hole, then through the second blower device to the second outlet;
• and
• a control circuit unit to control the air cleaner, inside the case, accommodated in the filter frame between the first filter unit and the second filter unit.
