Which IQ Air Purifier Is Best?

 
When looking for an IQ air purifier, you are going to want to find the best model to fill all of your purification needs. Therefore, you will want to look at these models and figure out exactly what their strengths and weaknesses are before you commit to a single unit.

Using an IQ air purifier review sheet to help you figure out which one might be best could help you make that decision much more easily than otherwise.

Each of the units that IQ Air provides will be some of the strongest air purification systems that you could hope to find. All of the units use HyperHEPA filter systems, which means that they take the traditional HEPA technology which is known to provide such great air coverage and they have improved upon it.

Instead of merely capturing particles as small as 0.3 microns, as the traditional HEPA will, a HyperHEPA filter can capture at least 99.5% of everything in the air that is 0.003 microns small. This is a phenomenal rate.

Each of the models will also include a pre-filter, which can help to trap all larger particles and contaminates before they reach the HyperHEPA filter. The more that can be removed before reaching the main filter, the longer a life your main filter will have. That's why it's important to have a feature which can remove the largest objects which can often damage the filter.

Other forms of the IQ air purifiers will have features which help to remove unwanted gases and odors. This filter will commonly come as a V-Cell, which has activated carbon and chemisorption techniques to remove all impurities that can be found in the air.

All of these will combine in different models, making an IQ air purifier a smart option for anyone needing the safest levels of quality air in their home.

The IQ Air HealthPro 150

  Filter Technology

The IQ Air Healthpro 150 features the HyperHEPA filter as well as the pre-filter. Space is provided to install the V-Cell if you later wish to upgrade, although it does not initially come with one.

The IQ Air GC MultiGas

The HEPA filter technology works to remove all particles and contaminates from the air. The gas cartridges will help to remove all chemicals and odors from the air. The post-filter helps to remove abrasion particles found in the air after the previous filtering.

Area Coverage

A 1000 square foot room will experience 2 air changes in an hour. A 290 square foot room will experience at least 7 air changes.

Maintenance Required

The HEPA filter used should be replaced every 6 to 18 months. The gas cartridges should last 2 to 4 years. The post-filter will typically need to be changed every 1 to 2 years.

Warranty

As you can easily see, choosing an IQ air purifier may be more difficult than you anticipated. Figure out exactly what your needs are going to be before you make a decision. This will give you the greatest chance of selecting the perfect purifier for your home.
