HEPA stands for high-efficiency particulate air. It’s a designation used to describe filters that can trap 99.97% of particles that are 0.3 microns. HEPA is a very effective filter that traps microscopic particles invisible to the naked human eye.
Most HEPA filters consist of interlaced glass fibres that are twisted and turned in various directions to create a maze. As particles travel across this web, they’re removed from the circulation in several ways including, direct impaction, sieving, interception and diffusion. The difference between HEPA filters and other regular filters is the percentage of airborne particles that they can remove. HEPA filters are more effective in removing particles in the air than a stranded air filter.

FAQs
How much space will an air purifier cover?
Depending on the air purifier you purchase, most will be able to cover a large section within your indoor space. For example, our High-Grade HEPA H13 Desktop Air Purifier is compact and powerful, covering a five by eight square metre area. Our High-Grade HEPA H13 Tower Air Purifier, which is easy to fit in any standard room or office space, has an incredible Clean Air Delivery Rate (CADR) of 120m³/h. If you’re unsure which air purifier is right for your indoor space, you can always contact our team for advice.
Where should I place my air purifier?
It’s best to place your air purifier in the highest traffic areas in your home or where you spend the most time, such as hallways, the living room and your bedroom. It’s also helpful to place your air purifier near a window or close to a doorway so that natural ventilation can push the dust and pollen to your air purifier.
How long should I run my air purifier?
We highly advise you to run your air purifier 24 hours a day. This will ensure your indoor air is always clean and minimise the chance of any allergens such as dust and animal hair.
