Buying a HEPA Air Purifier in Australia

Bushfire smoke, pollen season, dust mites and pet dander all affect the air inside Australian homes. A good HEPA air purifier pulls that air through a series of filters and returns it cleaner, which is why they are now a staple in bedrooms, living areas, clinics and offices.

What to look for

• A true HEPA filter. H13-grade HEPA captures 99.97% of particles down to 0.3 microns, including fine dust and pollen.
• Activated carbon. HEPA traps particles; carbon helps with smoke, cooking smells and household odours.
• CADR matched to your room. Clean Air Delivery Rate (m³/h) tells you how much air is cleaned each hour. Choose a model rated for a larger area than the room itself.
• Real-time monitoring. A PM2.5 sensor and app control show you the air quality and adjust fan speed automatically.

How often do I replace the filters?
Typically every 6 to 12 months depending on use and air quality. The app and filter indicator tell you when it is due.

Can I use one in a clinic or office?
Yes. Choose a model with a CADR suited to the room size. For multi-unit or clinic orders, contact our team for pricing.
