Description of terms

CADR: Means “Clean Air Delivery Rate”. The CADR measures the air purifier’s effective-ness based on room space and the volume of clean air produced per minute.
dB (A): Decibels measures the sound intensity of the Air purifier. Using 25 dB as an exam-ple; this is quieter than a whisper or a library.
HEPA 13 filter: Means “high-efficiency particulate air” filter. The filter is made up of thou-sands of extremely fine Glassfiber. We use HEPA H13 of medical grade in our air purifier including an anti-bacteria coating, activated carbon filter and pre-filter. The HEPA13 filter removes 99,97% of particles, including pollen, mold, bacteria and viruses. The anti-bacteria coating eliminates bacteria’s and avoid the bacteria from growing inside the device. The prefilter removes the biggest particles before the air flows into the HEPA filter.
Carbon filter: The multilayer filter has an activated carbon layer that removes harmful gasses and odors, including exhaust gasses, cigarette smoke and cooking smells.
TVOC: Total Volatile Organic Compounds (TVOC) are airborne chemicals & toxins emitted from everyday items such as paint, furniture, and cleaning products. They can be harmful at a high concentration, causing irritations in eyes, nose, and throat. Depending on the level and length of exposure TVOCs can also cause more serious health damage to liver and kidneys. Recommended TVOC level: < 220 ppb.
Humidity sensor: Excessive humidity levels can cause mold growth and lead to asthma and allergies. Dry air can also be problematic, particularly during the wintertime. This can result in home damages, such as creaking or cracking of wooden floors and furniture. The recommended level of humidity: 30-60%.
Temperature sensor: A healthy indoor climate begins with temperature consistency. Indoor temperature affects health (such as illness prevention / respiratory infections), performance and general comfort level. Recommended temperature: 18-25°C.
eCO₂: eCO₂ refers to the estimated concentration level of carbon dioxide (CO₂) in the air. Moderate to high levels of CO₂ can cause headaches and fatigue, and higher concentrations can produce nausea, dizziness, and vomiting. The eCO₂ measurement is calculated from the VOC measurement – if there are substantial concentrations of VOCs present, a eCO₂ reading will be higher than the actual CO₂ level. Good ventilation and regular ventilation are important to maintain a recommended eCO₂ level. Recommended eCO₂ level: < 1200 ppm.
Ug/m3: The concentration of an air pollutant (eg. ozone) is given in micrograms (one-mil-lionth of a gram) per cubic meter air or µg/m3. Our Air purifiers measure this concentration of particle with an advanced air quality sensor.
PM1/PM2.5/PM10. Air quality is often defined based on PM – particulate matter and tells someone about the size of the particles. 1PM = Particle with a diameter equal to 1 micrometer.
PM 1: Viruses (Corona Virus size), exhaust gases (the most harmful).
PM 2.5: Bacteria, fungal & mold, spores, pollen, toner dust.
PM 10: Pollen, dust particles.

Filter change

Repeat step 1-3 above and replace with a new custom-made HEPA 13 filter from Mill.
Many air purifiers have a timer.

This ensures everyday filter efficiency if air is more polluted than average.
The filter should last up to 12 months before a filter change is needed, depending on your indoor air quality.

This unique sensor does not need any cleaning compared to traditional sensors. This will avoid inflated particle values and a higher fan speed than necessary and will make sure the air purifier works perfectly at any time.

True filter status indicator

Indicates when to change the filter based on the volume of particles measured, as op-posed to a timer. This secures everyday filter efficiency and potential cost savings, as the indicator will only tell you to change filter when it is actually dirty.
