The new Blueair 203 in-room air purifier is the only air purifier with its room
capacity to use HEPASilent™ technology, a combination of the best features of
electrostatic and mechanical filter technology that allows delivery of more
clean air, at a faster rate, with less noise.
The 203 is among the
highest energy efficient and quietest operating air purifiers in its class, with
a room capacity of 200 sq. ft (10 x 20 ft room). Blueair is the system for
people living with allergies, asthma, or other respiratory conditions, or for
anyone who wants cleaner, more breathable air.
SmokeStop Filter Configuration
The NEW Blueair 203 w/SmokeStop Filter is recommended in rooms as large
as 175 sq. ft. to help control heavy gaseous pollutants like cigarette and cigar
smoke. It uses more activated carbon for better smoke and gas removal and
captures 99.97% of the tiniest 0.1 micron particles on Speed One, including
allergy-provoking pollen, dust mites, mold spores, and pet dander.
This
same filter technology earned the larger BlueAir units
Best of Class
ranking in independent AHAM testing of Clean Air Delivery Rates. The 203
provides comparable performance for mid-sized rooms.
Value-adding features
include quiet operation, low energy use, galvanized steel construction, a 5-year
warranty, and a convenient
Change Filter Indicator that reminds you to
change your filters every six months
Cleans Air
Quietly
Sophisticated materials and precision engineering allow Blueair
to clean indoor air without the noise associated with less advanced units. On
the lowest setting, the units emit no more sound than a desktop computer. To
achieve exceptionally quiet operation, Blueair¹s patented HEPASilent™ filter
technology traps particles two ways: with mechanical and electrostatic filters.
This combination creates a filter system through which air flows freely. Most
air cleaners require a powerful, noisy fan to pull air through densely packed
filters. Since air passes easily through Blueair filter media, the fan doesn't
have to work as hard or as loud. Even the housing is designed with quiet
operation in mind, replacing sound-sonant plastic with noise-muffling steel.
Surround Air
Instead of discharging a windy stream of
filtered air, the Blueair 203 diffuses air gently through an area six times
greater than the average air cleaner. Operating on its lowest setting, Blueair
produces virtually no noticeable draft, while still providing an exceptional air
exchange rate. Blueair's SurroundAir™ system 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.
Low Energy Cost
Blueair¹s phenomenally low
power usage means you can run the system 24/7 without a jump in electricity
consumption. In fact, it costs about the same to clean the air in your home as
it does to power a single lightbulb: only 15 watts on low to 95 watts on high.
Environmentally Aware
Blueair products offer exceptional
performance without polluting the environment. Blueair replaces standard
triclosan-coated paper or glass filter fibers, which can harm the environment
when released into the waste stream, with safer, nontoxic polypropylene. This
revolutionary filter media is one of the least harmful plastics, producing only
carbon dioxide and water as it decomposes. Because polypropylene is waterproof,
our filters naturally resist contamination from bacteria, viruses and mold,
without chemical additives or washes. Blueair even uses a special powder coat
finish that produces no chemical outgassing.
Award-winning Swedish
Design
The union of visually pleasing form and effective function is a
hallmark of Swedish design, and Blueair is no exception. Its sleek contemporary
look has earned Blueair one of the most prestigious design awards in
Scandinavia, the Excellent Swedish Design award. In fact, the Blueair unit
resides in a permanent exhibit at The National Museum in Stockholm. At Blueair,
we design air purification systems to meet your home's aesthetic standards
without sacrificing performance.
Easy to use and maintain
Plug it in, select the speed setting, and forget it. Blueair works so
quietly, at first you may find yourself wondering if it¹s turned on. Just check
the bright blue power on light. Blueair filters require no weekly additives or
filter washing. The grilles and powder-coated steel exterior are easy to wipe
clean, and won't pick up grime and oily stains the way plastics can. When the
filter needs to be replaced (twice yearly), just open the lid, lift out the old
filters and drop the new ones in. No screws, hooks or tools and less than one
minute of your time are required. Used filters are 100% recyclable, and release
no toxins into landfills or the air.
