IQAir HealthPro Plus Air Purifier Review

IQAir HealthPro Plus air purifier is called the world’s most advanced air purifier. It has many #1 product reviews, and it is one of the best for allergies and asthma. This model is for spaces up to 1125 square feet (105m2). It cost more than $750. Is it worth the money? Read below to get an answer.

Pros

Really great filtration system. HyperHEPA filter alone removes 99.5% of allergens as small as 0.003 microns. That’s 100 times smaller than what a conventional HEPA air purifier filter can remove.
Long filters life
Many features – remote control, electronic controls, 6 fan speeds, timer, filter replacement time, carrying handle, casters, etc.
Awards – The HealthPro Plus has garnered scores of major industry awards in recent years
10-Year Limited Warranty

Cons

Size – you have to prepare to leave space for this air cleaner.
Expensive filters
The old model had a chemical smell from the V5-Cell filter that the new model does not have. But that left a gap in reputation.

IQAir HealthPro Plus Design, size, placement

The IQAir HealthPro Plus is a big machine; measurements are height 28 inches (71cm), width 15 inches (38cm), depth 16 inches (40.5cm). But it looks great; it is designed so well that it doesn’t look so big. An air purifier is manufactured in Switzerland using fully cured, high-grade, injection-molded ABS plastic. This material resists scratches and dents, and it’s highly impact-resistant due to a 3-millimeter housing thickness.

The best place for the IQAir HealthPro Plus is a floor. The air intake is at the bottom of the unit. The air outlet is at the top of the unit, with air distribution in all directions. (It has a 320° EvenFlow diffuser). You can also get a wall mount bracket.

The IQAir HealthPro Plus weight is 35lbs (16kg). That is like a European standard kettlebell. The built-in guiding handle on the top and sturdy casters on the bottom of an air purifier makes it simple to roll around the house.

How it works and what sources of indoor pollution destroy

A fan moves the air through this machine.

The HealthPro Plus air purifier has an advanced 3-stage filtration system.

The first is a pre-filter, also called PreMax. It removes 90% of the particle weight from the air going through the air cleaner, allowing the HyperHEPA filter to last up to five times longer than similar filters in ordinary air cleaners.

The second is a V-5 cell gas and odor filter. This filter uses granular activated carbon adsorption to eliminate volatile organic compounds (VOCs), causing many unpleasant odors. This filter also uses pelletized chemisorption to destroy other harmful chemicals like formaldehyde. I bet you have read reviews that say about a chemical, plastic-type smell coming from this filter. Not anymore, the manufacturer has eliminated this problem.

The third is the HyperHEPA filter. This is better than the true-HEPA filter. This filter removes particles as small as 0.003 microns with a guaranteed minimum efficiency of over 99.5%. This is 100 times smaller than True-HEPA can filter. So that means this air cleaner captures almost everything – viruses, bacteria, pet allergies, mold spores, pollen, dust, materials used in the building such as asbestos, formaldehyde, and lead.

IQAir HealthPro Plus Noise level

The New Edition has an average of 7% less sound across all fan speeds, without sacrificing filter life or system efficiency. This system is virtually inaudible on its lowest fan speed, making it great for noise-sensitive environments like libraries, nurseries, and bedrooms. The second and third speed is also quiet. Loudest at the sixth speed, but that is ok because, with this speed, air cleaner moves a lot of air.

IQAir HealthPro Plus CADR

AHAM does not test the IQAir HealthPro Plus, so it is not CADR rated.

CADR ratings are never given out for whole-house air purifiers because they’re measured differently.

This unit is designed to be much more efficient at cleaning the air than less expensive units. You can compare the air delivery (in cfm – cubic feet per minute) of this unit to others to get a general comparison.

Air delivery with speed 1 is 40 cfm.

Air delivery with speed 6 is 240cfm.

IQAir HealthPro Plus Maintenance and upkeep

IQAir recommends running your IQAir HealthPro Plus air purifier for 10 hours a day on speed setting 3. Thanks to its superior performance and filtration, it does not need to be run 24 hours, 7 days a week.

The average filter life for 10 hours of use per day on speed setting 3 is outlined below.

PreMax Pre-Filter: 18 months
V5-Cell Gas & Odor Filter: 2 years
HyperHEPA Filter: 4 years

Of course, you will use it at different speeds and times than recommended. IQAir HealthPro Plus is equipped with an electronic filter life monitor to show you the system’s filter elements’ remaining life. As I have noticed, in reality, these numbers are close to the ones outlined above.

Filters change simple. Just realize the locking arms and slide the filters out of the frame.

The IQAir New Edition costs very little to operate. It only requires about as much power as a conventional light bulb. These air purifiers are the ultra-efficient IQAir New Edition fan and its maintenance-free motor at the very heart of these air purifiers. This amazing powerhouse requires as little as 20 watts of power at the lowest speed and up to a maximum of 135 watts at the highest speed. As a result, it costs only pennies per day to operate.

IQAir HealthPro Plus Summary

The IQAir HealthPro air purifier works excellent. It captures airborne pollutants as small as 0.003 microns. It has one of the best air filtration systems in the market. And that is an incredible number. Surprisingly great air cleaner for big size space up 1125 square feet. It has a lot of features that you will enjoy. The only reason that can stop you is the price. But I would say it is worth that.
