5 years later, still doing a great job

We bought this purifier in 2019 to help improve the air quality in an apartment. The building was older and had a ventilation system that, during the winter, would pull cooking smells, smoke, and other odors into our living space. The overall timing turned out to be fortuitous since we ended up spending a lot more time indoors when the pandemic kicked off a year later.The immediate effect of the purifier was noticeable. Unwanted odors were improved, there was less dust in the air, and we experienced fewer allergy symptoms. Especially since we were in a smaller space (~600 sq ft), this thing really did a great job, even staying on its low setting. It was great piece of mind knowing the air quality was a bit better for our newborn, too.We’ve since moved into a larger house and this thing is still humming along in our living room. I’m sure it’s less effective in such a large open space, but it’s positioned near our A/C air return, so it’s cleaning up a lot of the air as the A/C circulates air through the whole house. It has remained quiet and effective. I just vacuum out the dust shield every couple weeks, replace or vacuum out the charcoal filter every few months, and change the HEPA filter out annually.Overall, I don’t think you can beat this for the price. I like that it doesn’t have a remote, an app, and other extraneous things when all I need is cleaner air. I’ll likely upgrade to something larger at some point, but I’ve been super happy with this little guy for over 5 years now.

Definitely Would Recommend.

If you suffer from allergies, this filter is so worth the money. It's made a major difference in my home this allergy season.It shows a color-coded light that identifies when it's sensed contaminates and what level cleaning is underway: Blue, Orange, Red. I know it's accurate, because if I open the door for any length of time it turns orange. I'm a rather poor cook, and when it gets the least bit smokey inside it turns orange. I usually turn it off when I'm cooking. However, one night I filled the place with smoke, and this unit cleared the air in about two minutes, all the while display the bright red "What are you doing" light.When I first powered this up, it was red for a few hours, letting me know how contaminated the air was in my home without this device.If I leave this on for the day, when I return at night the air has a slight izonization smell... sort of like after a nearby lightening strike; which I'm guessing means it's been doing its job.The filers are kind of pricey, but couldn't even watch TV because my eyes were so watery before I got this unit; so it was worth it.First, there's a simple screen to block the big stuff. I just pop-this out and spray it was the water hose and it's clean in seconds. Behind that screen, there's a 30-day charcoal filter. These aren't reusable, but the unit comes with three of them. That's because the third filter is the micro one, which lasts for 90 days. So you use the three charcoal filters for 90 days, then replace the micro filer as well. An new filter kits comes with another three charcoal and one micro filter, so you're good for another 90 days.After about 45 days my allergies were starting to get bad again, then I remembered I hadn't replaced the 30-day charcoal filter. As soon as I did the air improved.It's pretty quiet. I don't really notice it's running unless I've got it on the maximum speed. At that speed it's loud enough to interfere with hearing the TV, but it's really cranking-out the air as well.Most of the time, I leave it in the auto mode. The sensor works very well, knowing when to kick-in and when to stay dormant.I'm considering getting another for the office.

Great Air Filter

I smoke cigars and live in a small brick rancher.I run two air filters, one in the back of the house and one in the room where I smoke.This is air cleaner replaced one of my older Hunter air cleaners that died.It is a very nice looking unit, very stylish and the panel displays all of the functions so you know exactly what is going on.There is a light bar on the front that changes from Blue when the air is clean to Yellow when some contamination is detected to Red when heavier levels of contamination are present. Most of the time it will be Blue, but if you are smoking or you fry foods, it will go to Yellow or Red.It is impossible to hear at fan speed 1, it's a slight whisper at 2, at 3 there is a gentle 'whoosh' that is drowned out by conversation or the TV and 4 is like a small jet plane taking off. I find that the auto setting doesn't run at high enough speeds when smoking cigars, so I set the fan speed and leave it at 3. I have never run it at 4 because it moves a LOT of air and is LOUD. Not sure under what circumstances you'd run it at 4, it really is overkill at that speed. I guess if you just smoked a cigar or had string food odors and were going out, you could set it on 4 and leave, but it blows very hard and makes too much noise to sit in the room with it at that level. But don't worry, because 3 is the sweet spot for this machine when smoking/cooking and 2 the rest of the time. Fan speed 3 keeps the cigar smoke under control while smoking and left running overnight, it kills all cigar odor by morning. The prefilter is a very fine, sheer screen. It washes in the kitchen sink in minutes, no soap required. Always remember to point the dirty side down in the sink and spray it from the clean side, that way you are forcing the dirt back OUT of the mesh the way it came in, instead of pushing it INTO the mesh. The carbon filter works well and in a cigar smoking situation lasts about 1.5-2 months. Winix recommends 3 months and in a non-smoking house that is probably about right. I saw someone saying you can vacuum dust off the carbon filter. Yes, you CAN do that but carbon filters work by capturing odors in the microscopic pores of the carbon in the mesh. Vacuuming it will remove dust, but it won't restore the odor capturing properties. Just change out the carbon filter when you notice it's no longer working on odors. Winix (and generic filter suppliers) include 4 carbon pre-filters for each filter. So if you replace the carbon every three months and the HEPA once a year you are set. In a smoking household, expect to change the carbon every 1.5-2 months and the HEPA every 6-8 months. This is because the HEPA filter will eventually absorb enough smoke particles that get past the carbon filter that the output will smell a little stale, even with a clean carbon filter.Filter changes are simple, just pop he panel off, wash pre-filter and swap carbon and/or HEPA; including rinsing the pre-filter you can do it in a couple of minutes.The PlasmaWave works VERY well, beating out my old Hunter for odor removal, despite both using similar HEPA filters and similar 1/4" thick carbon filters.We have a dog and when friends with dog allergies visit they say that their allergies don't even act up, so it's doing a good job of capturing pet dander. During pollen season, you notice relief just minutes after coming inside.I highly recommend this unit for everyone and will be purchasing another when I use up the last of my filters for the Hunter.
