Your true HEPA air cleaner removes up to 99.97% of airborne allergens as small as 0.3 microns, including ragweed pollen, grass pollen, tree pollen, household dust, dust mite debris, mold spores, pet dander and smoke from the air passing through the filter.
This appliance has an optional ionizer feature which, when turned on, releases negative ions into outgoing filtered air to help the air purification process.
What Are Ions?
Ions are tiny particles that carry a positive or negative charge. They exist naturally around us: in the air, water, and ground. Both positive and negative ions are colorless, odorless, and completely harmless.
How Does The Ionizer Work?
Negative ions help air purification by attaching themselves to very small airborne particles in the room. These particles take on a negative charge and may join with positively charged particles such as dust, pollen, smoke, and pet dander to form larger particles. These larger particles are then more easily captured by the filter system.
Important Notes:
Your ionizer may produce an occasional popping or cracking sound. This is normal and occurs when a small buildup of ions is discharged.
After extended use, you may notice dust around the grills or front panel. This is caused by negative ions exiting the air outlet, evidence of the ionizer's air cleaning effectiveness. You can remove the dust with a soft brush or clean, damp cloth.
Larger particles may be attracted to positively charged surfaces throughout the home, like walls or floors.
The ionizer in this appliance produces less ozone than the UL* established limits of 50ppb. However, in high concentrations, ozone can be harmful to birds and small pets. To prevent ozone buildup, we suggest using the ionizer in well ventilated areas with the fan on.
HEPA (High Efficiency Particulate Air) filters are designed to remove up to 99.97% of airborne pollutants at 0.3 microns or larger, from the air that passes through them. These include tobacco smoke, household dust, pet dander and pollen.
For optimum air filtration, operate your Holmes® air cleaner continuously on the HI setting. Its rugged motor has been designed to give many years of use. For quieter operation (such as in a bedroom), select LOW setting.
