| Frequently Asked Questions |
| What type of Blueair filter do I
need? Choose a filter type based on the kinds of pollutants (particles and gases) that may be present in your particular environment. Blueair's standard HEPASilent™ filter provides efficient filtration for environments where particles are the primary concern and gases are secondary. For any environment in which removing gaseous pollutants (including tobacco smoke) is a priority, we recommend the optional SmokeStop filter (501 Series only). All Blueair systems incorporate patented HEPASilent™ technology, the same system that earned the Blueair 501 Best of Class ranking in independent testing of Clean Air Delivery Rate (CADR), a measure of overall system performance. HEPASilent™ technology combines mechanical and electrostatic filtration methods to capture 99.97% of the tiniest .1 micron particles and gases. Blueair systems remove more of the smallest particles, compared to the HEPA systems of other manufacturers. Our standard filters are suitable not only for average homes with family members in good overall health, but also for families who need an extra level of protection for the elderly, small children or those with respiratory or cardiovascular illness. Blueair's optional SmokeStop filter adds more gas adsorption capability and is recommended for removal of tobacco smoke, and for environments like workshops or workplaces where chemical fumes and gases are present. For people with chemical sensitivities, and those whose asthma or allergies are provoked by strong odors and fumes, the SmokeStop filter provides an even higher level of protection. The optional SmokeStop filter is currently available only for the large room capacity Blueair 501 and 501i. SmokeStop options for the Blueair 402 and 301 are coming soon. |
