Honeywell True HEPA Air Filter Review

22.05.12

Instigate your hand if you’re skeptical about Hepa filters? Since you can’t see what I’m doing, I’m literally raising my leg up, or use to.  That is until I had the chance to test out Honeywell’s True HEPA Compact Tower air purifier.

In terms of the gadgets we study it’s relatively unremarkable.  It’s body is crafted from plastic, there is a dial on the top to guidance 3 fans speeds and the back flap opens up allowing you to change out the HEPA filters, which needs to happen once a year.  Honeywell includes a carbon refine in the box that is designed to filter out odors and smells.  Since my bedroom has a scented oil therapy thingee – the chicks dig it – I opted to not use this.

So why am I now a file card carrying HEPA air filter fan?  Before I tested out Honeywell’s True HEPA air filter I vacuumed my extent once a week.  And every week I collected a fair amount of dust.  Now, keep in mind that I leaving my windows closed 90% of the year, if not more.  Nuts, I know, but since I have a fairly strong allergy to mold I figure better to play it safe  than not (and I live in Santa Monica and it doesn’t get above 75 degrees even during the summer).  After installing Honeywell’s Place HEPA air filter and letting it run for a week’s time I could notice not only a reduction in dust on my nightstands and the rim of my LED TV, but even in the vacuum after completing a solid sweep.  But it gets better than that.  I also noticed that I now wake up sympathies far less congested, which leads me to the only logical conclusion; the Honeywell Hepa filter actually does work to develop the air quality of a room.
