Not All Air Cleaners Are Created Equal ...... Cleanroom Grade HEPA PerformanceMany air cleaners claim to feature HEPA filter technology. Since the terms “HEPA” and “true HEPA” refer only to the type of filter material used, they provide no guarantee as to the overall efficiency of the air purifier. The filtered air coming out of most HEPA air purifiers contains 100 times more particles than the HEPA standard allows. Due to superior design and components, the HealthPro 250 achieves complete HEPA performance with an overall efficiency of 99.97% at 0.3 µm.
HyperHEPA PerformanceWhile conventional HEPA air cleaners on the market today don’t typically produce 99.97% clean air at 0.3 microns, this kind of efficiency is possible. The IQAir HealthPro takes the official 99.97% HEPA filter efficiency and applies it not only to the filter, but to the entire air cleaner. This is referred to as HyperHEPA performance and relies on four critical elements:• High-efficiency pre-filter• Cleanroom grade HEPA filter (U.S. patent pending)• 3-D seal creates an airtight device (U.S. pat. pending)• Fan positioned before the HEPA filter
