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 m.
HyperHEPA PerformanceWhile conventional HEPA air cleaners on the market today dont 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 filterHyperHEPA isnt just hype. Heres the real HyperHEPA difference: the air coming out of a HealthPro is 99.97% particle-free at 0.3 microns and larger. At that size range, with one million particles being drawn into a HealthPro air cleaner, less than 300 particles will emerge. In comparison, an air cleaner with an overall system efficiency of 70% will still have 300,000 particles in its so-called "clean" air flow
