Spanish term or phrase: estancia
It keeps coming up in a translation about air purifier units. I think it's along the lines of "space" or "room" but am struggling to find similar references to this term. Here are some examples:

Tiempos estimado para filtrar dos veces el volumen de aire de la estancia.

Minutos para purificar la estancia

Además, podrás conocer el tiempo real que el purificador seleccionado tarda en renovar el aire de tu estancia.

Thanks for your help.

room


Explanation:
Estancia is a room. It is a synonym of "habitación" but perhaps on a more literary level.

The example you give is like: minutes required to purify the air in the room the person is in.

Notes to answerer
Asker: That's what I thought Maria. Although it brochure for a domestic purifier so it seemed a bit strange that they would use such a literary term.
