2 in 1 units which have been certified will have the AHAM seal, listing the
gallons per day water output as well as the CADR (Clean Air Delivery
Ratings) on the package. The CADR rating is the single most important thing
to know about an air purifiers. CADR is the amount of clean air (in cubic
feet) the machine, with its air filter in place, will deliver into a room. It mea-
sures the net effect of the filter material and the air flow of the unit.
No other measurement tells you how well a unit works in your home. The
higher the CADR rating on a specific particulate matter, the more efficient the
unit is at removing that particulate. It is also good to know exactly what area
or room size your unit will clean. Air Purifiers may be used in any room in
the house. Typically , they are used in room where people spend the most
time—the bedroom and the family room.
The chart below will indicate the time required to clean the air in various
sized rooms in your home. Remember, every time a door or window is
opened, more particulates are introduced, which will increase the cleaning
time.
Also certified as an evaporative humidifier, your 2 in 1 unit adds invisible
moisture
to your home by moving dry inlet air through a saturated wick. As air moves
through the wick, the water evaporates into the air, leaving behind any white dust, miner-
als, or dissolved and suspended solids. Because the water is evaporated, there is
no
messy mist or spray
and
no white dust
, just clean and invisible moist air. As the wick
traps accumulated materials from the water, its ability to absorb and evaporate water
decreases.
We recommend changing the wick at least once a year
, preferably
disposing of the used wick at the end of the humidifying season and starting with a new
wick at the beginning of the next humidifying season. In hard water areas, more frequent
replacement may be necessary to maintain your humidifier’s efficiency.

room air cleaners. These values represent performance that
can be expected within the first 72 hours of operation.
Subsequent performance may vary with use.
This air cleaner is suggested for use in a single closed
room up to 155 square feet.
Room size ratings conform to the AHAM Certification Program
criteria of 80% smoke reduction. Higher Clean Air Delivery
Rates (CADRs) provide improved performance in all room
sizes. Portable air cleaners will be much more effective in
rooms where all doors and windows are closed.
