If you’re one who enjoys the satisfaction of a clean home, then you’ll want to have your air clean as well. Sometimes we don’t think about cleaning the air more than changing the filters in the heater or air conditioner. But to truly clear the air in your surroundings requires more – you need an air purifier.
Fresh air in 12 minutes
This high-performance air purifier cycles the air five times an hour. If you’re trying to escape from the sneezing, sniffing, and itchy eyes caused by local allergens, you’ll appreciate this multi-level filtering. The medical-grade H13 HEPA filter combines with the pre-filter and activated carbon filters to remove particles down to 0.3 microns. It takes in air from 360 degrees to clear a whole room from smoke, pollen, and mold. It can also remove pet hair and dander and the odors that come with them.

If the room air is cleansed, then this air purifier shuts itself off. The futuristic design of this air purifier is just one of its many attributes. It can purify the air in a 361 square foot room, and its CADR (Clean Air Delivery Rate) is rated for dust – 246, pollen – 240, and smoke 233 cubic feet. With four filters, including an ion filter to attract dust and pollens, this mighty air purifier has an auto mode to measure pollutants in the air and respond accordingly.

Captures pollens and molds
With the capacity to cycle room air 120 times a day, this air purifier/circulator is powerful. This large air cleanser means business – just look at it. About a 20-inch square, this air purifier actually removes 99.9 percent of bacteria, mold, and viruses from the air, even in rooms as large as 465 square feet. The HEPA filter removes the littlest particles down to 0.3 microns. One micron is 1-25,000th of an inch, in case you were curious.

Just one button
No control panels, no knobs or dials, just one button to control all the functions of this air purifier. Push the button, and change the filters when the air purifier button changes to red. The two fabric pre-filters take in pet dander, dust, and other big particles, and we appreciate how they’re machine washable. The finer filter takes away 99 percent of airborne particles while being EnergyStar rated for its low energy consumption. This model purifies spaces as large as 540 square feet.
