Customer Reviews For The Honeywell Allergen Plus Series HEPA Tower Air Purifier for Medium-Large Rooms

The Honeywell HPA160 is a high efficiency particulate air (HEPA) air purifier, which means it can remove up to 99.97% of airborne particles 0.3 microns and larger. This includes dust, pollen, pet dander, and mold spores. The portable air purifier also has an activated carbon pre-filter that helps remove odors and VOCs.

The Honeywell HPA160 is rated to clean rooms up to 170 square feet. This makes it a medium to large room air purifier. However, the actual size of the room that the HPA160 can clean will depend on the level of air pollution in the room.

The Honeywell HPA160 has three settings, and the noise level varies depending on the setting. At the lowest speed, this home air purifier is about as quiet as a whisper. At the highest speed, the portable air purifier is about as loud as a normal conversation.

The Honeywell HPA160 comes with a pre-filter and a HEPA filter. The pre-filter should be replaced every 1-3 months, and the HEPA filter should be replaced every 6-12 months. The actual replacement schedule will depend on the level of air pollution in the room.

The HPA160 uses Replacement True HEPA Filter H and Replacement Pre-filter B.

The filters may be dirty. High amounts of contaminants can block the pores in the filter and stop the air from moving through it. Replace the Filters. The HEPA Filters should be replaced every year and the Pre-Filter and Enhanced Odor and VOC Filters should be replaced every 3 months. Please note these are guidelines only and filters should be checked periodically as individual home conditions may vary. To ensure the unit is performing properly, replace with Certified Genuine Honeywell Filters.
