The HealthMate Plus Junior HM250 is the smaller version of Austin Air's HealthMate Plus air cleaner. The carbon in the filter is impregnated with a special blend of potassium iodide for additional adsorption of VOC chemicals such as formaldehyde and ammonia. As it is smaller and lighter weight, it is more portable and very easy to fit in tight spaces. Wheels are not included, but are an optional add-on item.
360° 4-Stage Filtering System:
Austin Air's 360° design draws air into all sides of the air purifier, passing it through first an outer pre-filter and then a main filter that combines three additional stages of filtration:
-
STAGE 1: Large Particle PermaFilt Pre-Filter (wraps around main filter)
Cleanable re-usable prefilter traps large particles easily seen by the naked eye (dust, hair, lint, pet dander, etc) while prolonging the life of the main filter. Easy to maintain - simply vacuum clean monthly from the outside of the unit. -
STAGE 2: Medium Particle Pre-Filter
Removes additional small to medium sized particles (mold spores, pollen). -
STAGE 3: 6.5 lbs Carbon / Zeolite with Potassium Iodide (SuperBlend)
Activated granular carbon/zeolite is impregnated with potassium iodide for additional adsorption of VOC chemicals such as formaldehyde and ammonia. -
STAGE 4: 30 sq ft Certified True HEPA filter media
This final filtration stage contains 30 sq ft of medical-grade True HEPA pleated filter material. Traps up to 99.97% of particles as small as 0.3 microns that pass through the filter.
