when the filter is nearing the end of its functional life
expectancy and is able to capture less of the charged
particles.
You may also note after extended use, that dust has
collected around the grills or front panel. This is from the
ionization affect caused by the negative ions exiting from
the air outlet. This is additional evidence of the air
cleaning effectiveness of negative ions. The dust can be
easily removed with a clean, damp cloth or soft brush.
