The BlueAir 550E is part of BlueAir "E" series air cleaners. The Blueair 550E air purifier is the same as the Blueair 501, except the 550E has an easy-to-use digital display with instant feedback of particle detection, air purifier speed and timer operation and remote control.
These models all come with an easy to use electronic display. The Blueair 250E, 450E, 550E and 650E air purifiers continuously monitor and purify your indoor air.
Just click on the remote from distances of up to 20 feet away to change operating speed or set the on/off timer. Or set your unit on auto mode and let it regulate itself. Patented HEPASilent™ filter technology removes 99.97% of all airborne contaminants, such as smoke, dust, pollen and volatile organic compounds, that are 0.1 micron in size.
Also the Blueair E Series is Energy Star qualified, which helps save the environment and save you money.
This same filter technology earned the larger Blueair units Best of Class ranking in independent testing of Clean Air Delivery Rates. 
The 550E provides comparable performance for mid-sized rooms.
Value-added features include quiet operation, low energy use, galvanized steel construction and easy maintenance: simply open the side, slide out used filters and drop in replacements every 6 months.
Blueair is the system for people living with allergies, asthma, or other respiratory conditions, or for anyone who wants cleaner, more breathable air. The 550E effectively purifies air in rooms as large as 620 square feet. Using patented two-stage HEPASilent™ technology, it captures 99.97% of the tiniest 0.1 micron particles on level one, including allergy-provoking pollen grains, dust mites, mold spores and pet dander particles. Our efficient SurroundAir™ vent system delivers exceptional air exchange (up to 500 cubic feet per minute) without annoying drafts, performance that earned the 550E Best of Class ranking in independent AHAM testing of Clean Air Delivery Rate.
Easy maintenance: simply open the unit's lid, lift out and drop in filters every 6 months. Choose the optional SmokeStop Filter Kit for better protection from smoke and other airborne gases. Our new dust adn pollen filter is ideal for reducing potential allergens.
