Alen BreatheSmart 45i Review

This worked well for me however this could provide a challenge if you only have an upright vacuum cleaner. With the purifier now turned on, I first noticed the power button illuminate. Rather than a mere design feature, the color of this light indicates the quality of air in the room. There are five colors in total, from purple which is poor through to red, orange, green, and finally, blue which signals excellent air quality.

The F700 HEPA type filtration combines four different filter technologies. Polluted air first passes through a washable Pre-Filter, capturing large particles. Air then moves through HEPA type material where 99.9% of PM2.5 and 99% of PM0.3 are captured. Next, an antimicrobial layer on the HEPA media kills captured germs & microbes. Finally, the air passes through the activated carbon layer which filters out household chemicals, VOCs, odors and pollution. When it comes to quality, performance and customer satisfaction, Alen stands by their air purifiers for life.

Predicted reliability received a top score; hOmeLabs also is the only dehumidifier brand in our ratings to earn a Very Good score for owner satisfaction. Our standard medical-grade H13 True HEPA air filter offers outstanding protection by removing 99.9% of dust, allergens, and harmful fine pollutants as small as 0.1 microns. Every 30 minutes, our product can purify your home or office air depending on the model of Alen air purifier. Do not clean or wash the filters as they are not designed to be reused. After using the purifier for some time, the filters get loaded with particles, and it loses its filtering power.

If you have a large space and need serious performance, this machine is up for the task. If you have a smaller space or are on a budget, other models will likely be better suited. All in all, the Alen delivers and we find it’s worth the price.

Also question is, Which house air conditioner filters are best? Below are some that passed CR tests for removing this dangerous heavy metal. Pitchers are easy to use but filter small amounts at a time. Under-sink and countertop models can filter more and are relatively easy to install. Reverse osmosis Lasko Box Fan systems can remove a range of contaminants but they’re expensive, can be hard to maintain, and create 3 to 5 gallons of wastewater for every gallon filtered. The BreatheSmart has a sophisticated filter monitor and air sensor, which helps this model clean pollen and dust in mid-size to large rooms.

Despite being a powerful machine, it doesn’t take up too much space and as far as white goods go, sits comfortably in my living space, bedroom or office. Due to its relatively lightweight, it’s easy to maneuver from room to room and can slot nicely into the corner or a cupboard when not in use. We try to keep up with sales for every air purifier we review; Alen BreatheSmart Classic sales included.

Its smaller brother, the FIT50, shares similar design styles and capabilities and effectively cover medium-sized rooms such as your family room or master bedroom up to 900 sq ft. To ensure you’re purchasing the correct-size filters,remove the old air filter from the furnace and check its dimensions,which are indicated by thickness,width and length.

The next step was sealing up our 150-square-foot testing room and filling it with smoke by burning paper and other testing materials. We monitored the air with a Dylos air quality monitor; once the room reached our desired level of airborne particulate pollution, we kicked on the BreatheSmart 75i for an hour. After 30 minutes, there were only 16.62% of the original particulates left floating in the air, .003% after 45 minutes, and 0 detectable particulates after an hour. While the odor from the burnt paper wasn’t entirely eliminated, it was severely reduced.

Each of Alen’s True HEPA filters are capable of capturing 99.99% of airborne contaminants down to 0.1 microns, which are certainly impressive figures. However these results reflect controlled lab testing, so I was keen to see how these figures translate in the real world. Even at the lowest Speed 1, the Classic generates 45 dB of noise. This is quite a lot; comparatively, as we have discussed in the Alen BreatheSmart 75i review, that air purifier generates only 25 dB at Speed 1.

Replace your filter every 6-12 months for severe concerns or when running the air purifier 24/7. Replace your filter every months for light concerns or when running the air purifier only as needed. The lasko pedestal fanss Filter Life Timer indicates when it is time to replace the filter based on the operating fan speed and duration of use. The optimal filter replacement frequency may vary based on your environment and health concerns. Experience premium air purification with the Alen BreatheSmart Classic True HEPA Air Purifier!
