It is important that you check your filters on a regular basis!
HEPA filters should generally be replaced every 6 to 12 months.
However, the frequency can vary depending on usage, air quality, and environmental factors.
Regularly inspect your filter for signs of clogging or damage. Factors influencing replacement frequency: Usage:
If your air purifier is running frequently, you might need to replace the filter sooner.
Air quality: Homes with high levels of pollution, pet dander, or smoke may require more frequent replacements.
Filter type: Some HEPA filters are designed for longer lifespans than others.
Manufacturer recommendations: Always check the manufacturer’s recommendations for your specific filter model. Signs it’s time to replace:
Clogged filter: If the filter looks visibly dirty or dusty, it’s a good sign that it’s time to replace it.
Reduced airflow: If your air purifier’s airflow feels weaker, the filter might be clogged.
Filter replacement indicator: Some air purifiers have indicator lights or notifications to let you know when the filter needs to be replaced.
Alternatives to replacement: We do not recommend cleaning or vacuuming filters, not only will the spmaller particles still clog the material, bacteria and other nasty viruses will remain in the gauze causing a health risk.
Replacement is the easiest, safest and best choice.
Pre-filters: Consider using pre-filters to help extend the life of your HEPA filter by capturing larger particles
