IQAir HealthPro Plus has held the title of the world's best air purifier for residential homes since 1998. What makes IQAir HealthPro Plus so different from other HEPA air purifiers? Let me share my thoughts with you.

I am an ordinary person,IQAir HealthPro Plus - Why Ordinary HEPA Filters Aren’t Good Enough Articles just like you. Perhaps the only difference is that I’m an allergy sufferer.

Because of this reason, I have been researching and using many different types of air purifiers for years, hoping to find just one that would help relieve my allergic sufferings.

My experiences and findings over the last 8 years tell me one thing – HEPA air filters aren’t good enough to clean your indoor air.

 

Why HEPA Air Purifiers Aren’t Good Enough?

I believe that most of you are familiar with the term High-Efficiency Particulate Air (HEPA). If you don’t, HEPA filtration means a promise of 99.97% efficiency in removing airborne pollutants as small as 0.3 microns.

0.3 microns may sound very small, but what most people don’t realize is that 90% of indoor air pollutants are smaller than 0.3 microns!

For instance, dust mites, pet dander and viruses could be as small as 0.003 microns.

Mere HEPA filters would not do a good job in filtering them out. This is exactly why HEPA filters aren’t just good enough.

 

The Danger Of Ultra-Fine Particles

Ultra-fine particles are particles measuring less than 0.1 microns. Some scientific researches prove that particles measuring less than 0.1 microns are most harmful to health, particularly to allergy sufferers

Ultra-fine particles are so small that it can easily be inhaled and absorbed by our lungs, at a much faster rate compared to normal sized particles. This faster absorption rate could cause almost instant allergic and asthmatic response, if you are sensitive to that particle.

The California Air Resources Board estimates that ultra-fine particles subtract 10 years from a person’s life!

 

The Revolutionary HyperHEPA Filtration Technology

IQAir HealthPro Plus uses the revolutionary HyperHEPA filtration technology in its air purification system which cleanses the air at the efficiency of 99.5% for particles right down to 0.003 microns.

That is 100 times more effective than ordinary HEPA filters!

The HyperHEPA technology allows this air purifier to effectively remove ultra-fine particles – something that most air purifiers could not do.

This technology is internally developed by IQAir and is therefore exclusive only to IQAir branded air purifiers. No other air purifier has it.

Besides the HyperHEPA difference, IQAir HealthPro Plus uses many other superior air cleaning technologies that are capable of completely transforming your home into an air pollutant free villa.
