Rabbit Air BioGS 2.0 Ultra Quiet HEPA Air Purifier (SPA-625A) No where does it say how often it circulates the air/room. Others say it.

Here's a chart of all the different circulation speeds: http://www.rabbitair.com/pages/choose-your-air-purifier
1434064
The amount of air circulation depends on the air quality of the room. If the sensor detects low air quality, it will increase fan speed to boost air circulation. When the sensor detects good air quality, it will lower the fan speed resulting in less air circulation. You can adjust the sensitivity of the air quality sensor. In my experience, the Auto setting (the one described above) did not clean the air as much as I needed, not even when I had the air quality sensor set to high sensitivity. Actually, with my allergies/asthma this isn't all that surprising. So, I set it manually. For me, keeping it on and set at the 3 star fan speed has worked just great. I've never been able to actually breath through my nose so much!

According to the Amazon ad, it will turn over the air in a 625 sq. ft. room 2 X at the highest setting.

The IQ Air Multi Gas does not emit any odor. However, it also has not been effective at removing perfumes,or paint fumes in my apartment. I have tried to use it on numerous substances that have bothered me and it has been useless. I have one IQ Multi Gas in my bedroom and one in my living room which is at the other end of my apartment. My apartment is about 900 square feet.It is effective at removing dust, pet hair etc.To be honest the air purifier has been a real disappointment.

Hi Leroy, yes, it does have two side-by-side HEPA filters. Not sure how much air it moves, but it is recommended for a room that is: Recommended for rooms up to 180 sq ft (12ft x 15ft). I used it in Afghanistan and it did a great job BUT it is not very quiet (good in my barracks room but not good in the office).

This is a filter for an IQ Health Pro air purifier. We use our's in our great room which is a combination living room/dining room. It is also open to our kitchen. We've had one of these units for 13 years. We never placed this unit in our bedroom though I'm sure you could use it there as long as you keep the setting low to keep the operating noise to a minimum.

There are two filter that the tower uses. The first, is the Air Purifier Booster Filter and then there is the Hepa Filter. I've had mine for about 2 years and run it everynight, and so far, have only replaced the Hepa Filter only once. The Booster Filter does NOT need to be replaced! Yes, you heard it right! I Vacuum mine and good as new. Some previous post wrote that they washed it. I think that is a waist of time and too much mess. Get a good vacuum and hose it down. Hope this helps.

Hmmmm.....I'm not sure. I have a large unit in my bedroom, and a smaller unit in my front room. They pretty much handle the whole first floor of my home. I don't use the upstairs, so it's not necessary to have a unit there. I will tell you, both rooms have cold air returns, and the units are close to them. My house is VERY old. I used to have to dust daily....now, maybe once a week. When the dust starts to build up faster, I know it's time to check the filters. I have a huge German Shepherd, so I vacuum the filters twice a month.I have 2 bedrooms, a very large front room, and a very large kitchen on my first floor. I also have severe allergies. The two units are perfect! Hope that helps. Hmmmm.....I'm not sure. I have a large unit in my bedroom, and a smaller unit in my front room. They pretty much handle the whole first floor of my home.

I run mine in the bedrooms just at night. It knocks down the particulate level to a good air quality level quickly, so if I'm not in the bedroom, I see no reason to run it. I have an air quality monitor to measure that, so it's objective. We have a different brand of air purifier (IQ Air Health Pro Plus) in our main living space, and that one is on a low to medium setting almost all day. I turn it off or way down at night and rev it up to high if we have poor outdoor air quality or if I can see that the air quality in the house is poor via the monitor. Life if much better since I got two of these Honeywells and the IQ Air. I run mine in the bedrooms just at night.

The carbon pre-filter and a Hepafilter come with the purifier. When I run the machine at high speed 24/7, I vacuum the carbon filter once a week, the hepa filter has stayed clean and I've never vacuumed or replaced it

Just so you know, You can also use a small fan in the room to help circulate the air. Use one of those fans that move from side to side, and direct the blow of the fan toward the air purifier. I move my fan around the room often just so I can circulate as much air as possible all around. Also, move your purifier around the room and do not just leave it in one spot for months at a time. Hope this helps.

For square footage of room: http://www.honeywellstore.com/store/products/honeywell-17000-s-quietcare-permanent-true-hepa-air-purifier-germ-reduction.htm.You have to buy the coarse prefilter every few months, depending on your environment. It's cheap.

I have used both but to be fair this one is larger than the HEPA versions I've used in the past. That said we have allergies and mild asthma and two dogs and a cat to which we have allergies. The symptoms are not evident when the purifier is on and no asthma attacks evident. The maintenance is easier and less expensive. I am very happy.

The product description, here http://www.filtersfast.com/P-Honeywell-HHT-080-HEPAClean-Tower-Air-Purifier.asp?gclid=CNzQ2-WG8rsCFeZ7QgodmHoAzg says up to 169 sq ft. My rooms are around 150 sq ft and it works nicely for that space.

I use it in my family/sewing room - lower level, no windows. I run it all the time mostly on low . Very quiet. Have had to clean it twice. Hepa filters replacement is expensive but I haven't needed to do that. Have had it 2-3 yrs.

As I understand it, the company decided it was better to call the filter 'long-life' rather than 'lifetime'. So they marketed the same exact machine under a new model name. The 'N' was changed to an 'S'. The explanation seems reasonable to me, but I can't verify it. The quote below is from the following webpage: http://www.iallergy.com/product143/product_info.html "Note: The 50250-S product is identical to the recently discontinued 50250-N which advertised a permanent HEPA filter. The only thing that has changed with the 50250-S is the product packaging. While both the air purifier and included filters inside have not changed, the packaging now advertises the true HEPA filter as long life as opposed to permanent. Again, only the advertisement has changed, the product remains the same."
