Clean Air Delivery Rate 

This air purifier has a Clean Air Delivery Rate of 141 cubic feet per minute (CFM), or 240 m³/h. Clean Air Delivery Rate (CADR) measures the efficiency of an air purifier by indicating the volume of clean air that an air purifier produces per minute. This is based on the removal of dust, pollen, and smoke, which are the 3 most common indoor air pollutants. The higher the CADR, the more particles the air purifier will remove and the larger the area it can clean. The rating is measured at the air purifier’s highest speed.

Air Change Per Hour

The air change rate is how many times all the air in a room can be purified (or “changed”) by the air purifier in 1 hour. Air changes per hour are calculated on the recommended room size, ze assuming 8 ft / 2.4 m ceilings. For smaller rooms, the air change per hour will increase. This air purifier can change the air 5 times per hour at the maximum speed in a single, closed room up to 219 ft² / 20 m². This is measured at ACH 5. The air purifier is effective for larger rooms, but air purification will take longer, with fewer air changes per hour. For example, the air purifier’s effective range is 548 ft² / 50 m² based on 2 ACH, or purifying the air in the room 2 times per hour.

Humidity

Moisture may damage the filter. This air purifier should be used in an area with a humidity level of 85% RH or below. If you use the air purifier in excessively humid areas, the surface of the filter may become moldy.

Essential Oils 

Do not add essential oils to the air purifier or filter. The filter will become damaged by the oil and will eventually release an unpleasant smell. Do not use diffusers near the air purifier.

Cleaning the Pre-Filter

The Washable Pre-Filter should be cleaned every 2–4 weeks to increase efficiency and extend the life of your filter. You can set a reminder in the VeSync app to clean the pre-filter every 2, 3, or 4 weeks. Clean the pre-filter using a soft brush or vacuum hose to remove hair, dust, and large particles. Optionally, you can wash the pre-filter with water and a mild detergent to remove dirt and dust.
