ABOUT THE FILTER

This air purifier has a Clean Air Delivery Rate of 130 cubic feet per minute (CFM), or 221 m³/h. Clean Air Delivery Rate (CADR) measures the efficiency of an air purifier by indicating the volume of clean air that an air purifier produces per minute. This is based on removal of dust, pollen, and smoke, which are the 3 most common indoor air pollutants. The higher the CADR, the more particles the air purifier will remove and the larger the area it can clean. The rating is measured at the air purifier’s highest speed.

Air Change Per Hour

The air change rate is how many times all of the air in a room can be purified (or “changed”) by the air purifier in 1 hour. Air changes per hour are calculated on the recommended room size assuming 8 ft / 2.4 m ceilings. For smaller rooms, the air change per hour will increase. This air purifier has an air change per hour of 3.3, which means it can change air 3.3 times at the max speed in a single, closed room up to 300 ft² / 28 m² in size. The air purifier is effective for larger rooms, but air purification will take longer, with fewer air changes per hour

Humidity

Note: Water or moisture will allow mold to grow. To solve a mold problem, get rid of the source of the moisture and clean up the mold.

Essential Oils

Do not add essential oils to the air purifier or air filter. The filter will become damaged by the oil and will eventually release an unpleasant smell. Do not use oil diffusers near the air purifier.

CARE & MAINTENANCE

1. Cleaning the Air Purifier
2. Unplug before cleaning.
3. Wipe the outside of the air purifier with a soft, dry cloth. If necessary, wipe the housing with a damp cloth, then immediately dry.
4. Vacuum the inside of the air purifier.
5.  Do not clean with abrasive chemicals or flammable cleaning agents.

When Should I Replace the Filter?

• The filter should be replaced every 6–8 months.
• You may need to replace your filter earlier or later depending on how often you use your air purifier.
