BLUEAIR 403 - PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

The Blueair 403 HEPASilent air purifier is engineered to not only be effective at removing airborne pollutants such as dust, pollen, pet dander and mould spores, but to be quiet, energy efficient and stylish at the same time. Using revolutionary technology, the Blueair 403 air purifier is capable of capturing particles three times smaller than traditional HEPA filters can, providing improved filtration of hazardous, lung-penetrating particles such as ultra-fine dust, combustion particles, fine ash and even airborne bacteria.

Exclusive to Blueair air purifiers, HEPASilent technology combines mechanical filtration and electrostatic principles to achieve outstanding air cleaning that outperforms medical-grade HEPA filters alone. As room air is drawn into the Blueair 403 by an ultra-quiet fan, an internal ionizer exerts a negative charge over the incoming particles, ensuring that they adhere effortlessly to the positively-charged filter material. By using a three-stage filter with progressively smaller pores, the Blueair 403 air purifier is able to achieve remarkable air cleaning results, capturing an impressive 99.97% of particles down to 0.1 microns.

Low-density filters, noise-muffling galvanized steel and precision Swedish engineering allow Blueair HEPASilent air purifiers to clean the air more quietly than any other brand of air purifier. On the two lowest fan speed settings, the Blueair 403 offers whisper-silent operation with sound levels so low that you may wonder if your Blueair unit is actually on. Energy Star rated, the Blueair 403 uses significantly less power than other air purifiers on the market.

Unlike standard electrostatic air cleaners, the Blueair 403 HEPASilent air purifier is perfectly safe for asthma and allergy sufferers because it releases absolutely no ozone or ozone by-products into the air. In fact, laboratory tests show that the Blueair 403 significantly reduces ozone concentrations in rooms where electronic devices (e.g., computers, printers, televisions) are operated.

Instead of the standard triclosan-coated paper or glass filter fibres, Blueair filters are constructed from non-toxic polypropylene. One of the least harmful plastics for both people and the environment, polypropylene works without out-gassing or releasing irritating microscopic fibres into the air. Because Blueair filters are also waterproof, they naturally resist contamination from bacteria, viruses, and mould without chemical additives or washes. Although Blueair 403 HEPASilent air purifiers are generally purchased for particle control, a thin layer of activated carbon is also incorporated into the filters to provide some protection from chemicals, gases and odours.

For those who want improved handling of chemical fumes, toxic gases and unpleasant odours, the Blueair 403 can be equipped with an optional GO (Gas & Odour) SmokeStop filter (instead of the standard HEPASilent filter). Featuring 3 lbs. of granular activated carbon, blended with potassium iodide, phosphoric acid and potassium hydroxide, Blueair 403 GO SmokeStop air purifiers provide better adsorption of gas phase pollutants and tobacco smoke contaminants, while offering the same exceptional particle filtration as the Blueair HEPASilent air purifiers do.

To maintain optimal air cleaning performance and ensure warranty coverage, the filter in the Blueair 403 air purifier (both HEPASilent and GO SmokeStop models) must be replaced every 6 months. The convenient magnetic filter replacement indicator supplied with Blueair 403 models will remind owners when it's time to change the filter. The filter itself can be replaced in about 30 seconds. Just open the door of your Blueair 403 unit, remove the old filter, slide the new one in, and close the door. Fast and simple!

Built for years of reliability, Blueair 403 air purifiers have all-steel housings that are powder-coated for endurance and protection, without any chemical off-gassing. In addition to their zero ozone emission, all Blueair air purifiers are constructed from environmentally friendly parts and recyclable materials. When discarded, Blueair filters decompose and the filter media converts into harmless carbon dioxide and water.

The sleek design, quiet operation and outstanding room coverage of the Blueair 403 air purifier makes it perfect for mid-size spaces, including bedrooms, sitting rooms, playrooms, laundry rooms and workshops. The Blueair 403 has built-in hand grips on either side of the unit for easier maneuverability, and is a neutral off-white and dark grey colour to blend into almost any décor.
