Featuring Whisper-Quiet Operation, this Blueair HEPA Air Purifier Won Best of Class for its Air Cleaning Ability
The 501 Blueair HEPA Air Purifier HEPA Air Cleaner won the Best of Class ranking in an independent testing of CADR (clean air delivery rate). CADR testing is totally independent and recognized by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the American Lung Association, the higher the CADR rating the better the overall ability of the air purifier to clean your indoor air. Blueair’s patented two-stage HEPASilent™ technology captures 99.97% of the tiniest 0.1 micron particles, including allergy provoking, dust mites, mold spores and pet dander particles without the noise of comparable HEPA air cleaners. The optional Blueair Smokestop Filter features more activated carbon for additional odor, smoke and gas removal. The combination of function, design and quality make the 501 Blueair HEPA Air Purifier the unit of choice for larger areas.
Blueair is a perfect air purifier choice for people living with allergies, asthma, or other respiratory conditions, or for anyone who wants cleaner, more breathable air. The 501 Blueair HEPA Air Purifier effectively purifies air in rooms as large as 550 square feet. A revolutionary combination of advanced filter media and an encapsulated ion particle charging chamber makes it possible for the Blueair air purification system to achieve better results than either mechanical or electrostatic technology alone. Blueair’s patented HEPASilent Filter technology traps particles two ways: with mechanical and electrostatic filters. Particles that just a HEPA filter alone might miss are captured with an electrostatic charge. Blueair’s HEPASilent™ technology moves particles through an enclosed ion chamber, which attaches a charge to the particle itself Charged particles cling more easily to the filter media, resulting in higher filter efficiency overall. There is no ozone produced, only crystal clean air.
Optional Smokestop Filters Available for the Removal of Smoke, Odor and Gas
The Blueair’s Particle Filter controls airborne particles and allergens removing these allergy provoking particles from your indoor air. The standard HEPA filter in the 501 Blueair HEPA Air Purifier and larger 601 has a carbon medium layer on the filter to help with odor removal. For heavier odors, gas or smoke in the environment the Blueair Smokestop Filter is available. The optional Blueair Smokestop Filter features the same efficiency of the Blueair Particle Filter with an additional layer of enhanced active carbon. The enhanced active carbon is comprised of carbon pellets in a honeycomb design to yield more surface area, for higher absorption capability. This Blueair HEPA filter is good for house dust mites, mold spore control, pet dander control and general indoor air pollution control, and with the Blueair Smokestop filter, you can also receive effective smoke and gas removal. To maintain optimum air cleaning capability with either filter, the filter should be changed every 6 months. The “easy change” filters simply slide out to be replaced by the new ones, no cutting, sizing or difficult installation process.
Blueair's SurroundAir™ system in the 501 Blueair HEPA Air Purifier achieves peak performance without annoying drafts by drawing in dirty air from the sides and bottom moving it through a less dense filter media and releasing clean, filtered air from the sides and top. The air passes through the ionization chamber where particles are charged to ensure they will adhere to the filter. The charges particles then pass through the 3-stage progressive filter. The charged particles must pass through three layers of the filter, with the largest particles trapped on the first stage. This prevents the filter from becoming clogged and ensures that even the smallest particles are trapped, eliminating the need for pre-filters.
