AeraMax 300 Air Purifier Product Review
True Hepa Filter
The True Hepa filter removes 99.97% of microbes .3 microns or larger all on its own. These microns include allergens, viruses, and cigarette smoke. The AeraMax 300 features a 4-step filtration system, similar to what hospitals use. One of these steps features a carbon filter, which removes odors and large particles from the air. This 4-step system is one of the most effective on the market today.
Filters typically last for 6 months of continuous use, but heavily polluted air can always fill them up faster than expected. One of the AeraMax’s special features (discussed below) also optimizes performance for particularly allergen and pollutant-rich seasons. While this feature is immensely useful, it will likely use up a filter much faster.
Range
Unlike many other air purifiers, even those in the same price range, the AeraMax 300 can clean up to 600 square feet, making it perfect for large rooms. It can be difficult to find a system that will clean such a large volume of air, making the hunt for the right air purifier even trickier for those looking to clean air in a space larger than a modest bedroom. However, AeraMax 300 can purify anywhere from 300 to 600 square feet, so if you are looking to purify a smaller space (or move the air purifier periodically between rooms), this product may still suit your needs.
Certifications
In addition to its Allergy and Asthma Friendly certification from the Allergy and Asthma Foundation of America, this product is AHAM and CARB certified. This is a good mix of commendations, and it’s always important to look at third party research before choosing an air purifier. These certifications help assure that you are getting a quality product. They are also important for those seeking allergy or asthma relief for obvious reasons.
Additional Features
As stated above, every company designs their air purifiers with special features to woo buyers. The AeraMax 300 includes some useful features, especially for those looking for allergy and asthma relief. The Aera + Mode, for example, offers extra protection for allergy, cold, and flu seasons.
PlasmaTrue technology ionizes the air to collect additional pollutants, and the Aerasmart Sensor automatically adjusts fan speed to keep your air clean, while a display gives you visual confirmation of the current quality of your air. Meanwhile, your air purifier will run as silently as possible with ultra quiet operation.
Final Thoughts
If you suffer from respiratory health issues we highly recommend that you find an asthma and allergy friendly air purifier. And, we think the AeraMax 300 might be the right one for you. If you need an air purifier that can keep your air as clean as a hospital, you should consider this product. While the AeraMax 300 may not be the best choice for those looking for a more affordable and less effective option, this air purifier does its job very, very well.
The four-step filtration process is a clear sign of the manufacturer’s dedication to a superior air purifier. Beyond that, Aeramax engineered additional features tailored to ease allergy and asthma symptoms.
