How Well Does The Austin Air Allergy Machine Perform?

 


The Austin Air Allergy Machine is another set of 2 models which are features by Austin air.

  These models, the Allergy Machine and the Allergy Machine Jr, are both high functioning air cleaners which can quickly start to improve your home life and turn it into an outstanding example of what high purity can bring.

When you examine the Austin Air Allergy Machine units more closely, you should begin to start to determine the difference between the units and figure out which one will work more efficiently within your own home.

Pros of the Austin Air Allergy Cleaner

  • Both the Allergy Machine and the Allergy Machine Jr will use 4 separate levels of purification to help make your home better.
  • Allergens and gases alike will be absorbed by these filters, giving the safest environment possible.
  • A stainless steel construction will make sure that there is no off-gassing from the unit taking place.

Cons of the Austin Air Allergy Cleaner

  • Filter replacements can be expensive, although they will happen very infrequently.
  • There is no easy-to-use digital display to help you control the machine and how it operates.

What does Austin Air Allergy Cleaner offer its Users?

  • What Filter Technology Will Be Used?

    Both the Austin Air Allergy Machine and the Allergy Machine Jr will use the same type of filters, although in different quantities. As the Austin Jr air machine is built to handle a smaller space than the original Allergy Machine, you will not need as much filter to make it last. Each of these units, however, will approach their methods of purification in exactly the same way.

    The outer layer of the filters will include a large pre-filter, which will help to trap all of the largest particles found in the air.

    Typically, these will be the contaminates which you can see, from hair and pet dander to dust and list. These largest particles are the ones which clog your filter up the fastest, which is why they are removed from the machine first.

    The second layer is another pre-filter that should remove the rest of the allergens and particles from the air.

    Smaller types of contamination, like pollen and mold spores are typically among the dirt that you will find in this filter. Removing them at this stage will help establish the air into the cleanest state possible.

    The third layer is where the Allergy Machine and the Allergy Machine Jr will start to differ. On both units, you will be able to find a level of activated military carbon cloth. This carbon miltary cloth is designed to help eliminate the presence of harmful gases in the air which can commonly work toward degrading your health.

    Their placement is different between the two units, however. On the Allergy Machine Jr, this is the third level of filtration. In the Allergy Machine itself, this is the final stage.

    The last step of filtration with the Allergy Machine units is the standard HEPA cloth material itself. This type of HEPA filtration is designed to capture particles which are 0.03 microns or larger, helping you trap the smallest particles found in the air. These are usually airborne contaminates, like germs, viruses, and other bacteria.

    Using one of these filters will give you a quality of air that you may typically only find in the hospital.

    The regular Allergy Machine will contain 60 feet of this material, while the Allergy Machine Jr will hold only 30 feet of this HEPA filter.

  • Area Covered
  • This will be the only major difference that you find between the Allergy Machine and the Allergy Machine Jr. Both units will perform in exactly the same way, although they are better suited for different sizes of rooms.

    The regular Allergy Machine should be used in rooms of 750 square feet or less, while the Allergy Machine Jr shouldn't be used in an environment over 375 square feet.

  • Maintenance Needed
  • The filters of the Austin Air units are guaranteed to last for 5 years under normal household conditions. This turns them into a great deal because no other filter can hold this extended lifetime of filtration to such a high degree.

    In order to make these filters last this long, however, the pre-filters will need to be vacuumed around every 6 months. This will remove all of the buildup and should allow the air flow to continue at a high rate.

    When the time does come for the filters to be replaced, however, you should be able to find the main filter for around $180. The pre-filter replacement shouldn't cost more than $20 for each of these units.

    When you stop to consider that this is a price you are only paying once every 5 years, you will see that this is a very wise investment for those who want great filtration without spending a great deal of money in upkeep.

  • Noise Levels
  •   The highest speeds of both units of the Allergy Machine will make only 66 decibels of noise.

    The motors are Energy Star rated as well. Top speed for the Allergy Machine should only consume 115 watts, slightly more than an average light bulb. The Allergy Machine Jr will use no more than 80 watts on top speed.

  • Price and Warranty
  • You can find both units with a full 5 year warranty on both the parts and the filters of the unit.

    No other brand of purifier will protect the high-performance of the filters in this way, meaning that once you make this purchase, you will absolutely have a high-quality machine running in your home for at least 5 years.

    The Austin Air Allergy Machine usually sells for around $450, while the Austin Allergy Machine Jr model retails for $300.
