Great Air Purifier

This is a great air purifier. It does a solid job of cleaning dust, pollen and smoke from the air. The sleep mode at night is sooo quiet you dont even know its on. I want to get another one for downstairs.

What Are Honeywell Air Genius Purifiers?

This selection of tower air purifiers uses permanent washable filters, saving you time and money on replacement filters. Multiple cleaning levels with Bluetooth capability (Air Genius 6) make this series a standout choice as an air purifier for allergies.

How effective is the Honeywell HFD280B at removing allergens?

The Honeywell HFD280B is a portable air purifier that can help capture the following microscopic airborne particles: dust, pollen, pet dander, dust mite debris and smoke. This home air purifier can also help remove odors and VOCs.

How big of a room can the Honeywell HFD280B clean?

The Honeywell HFD280B is rated to clean rooms up to 150 square feet. This makes it a medium room air purifier. However, the actual size of the room that the HFD280B can clean will depend on the level of air pollution in the room.

How loud is the Honeywell HFD280B?

The Honeywell HFD280B has four settings, and the noise level varies depending on the setting. At the lowest speed, this home air purifier is about as quiet as a whisper. At the highest speed, the portable air purifier is about as loud as a normal conversation.

How often do I need to change the filters on the Honeywell HFD280B?

The Honeywell HFD280B uses a permanent washable filter for easy maintenance and a foam pre-filter that should be changed every 3 months.

What filters do I need for the HFD280B?

The HFD360B uses Replacement Pre-filter K.

My Air Purifier is starting to make noise and the air output is less. What's wrong?

The filters may be dirty. High amounts of contaminants can block the pores in the filter and stop the air from moving through it. Replace the Filters. The HEPA Filters should be replaced every year and the Pre-Filter and Enhanced Odor and VOC Filters should be replaced every 3 months. Please note these are guidelines only and filters should be checked periodically as individual home conditions may vary. To ensure the unit is performing properly, replace with Certified Genuine Honeywell Filters.

How long should I run my Air Purifier?

In general, the unit will be most effective when doors and windows are closed. It is recommended that you run your air purifier while you are at home to help clean the air. If desired or conditions warrant, you may run your air purifier 24 hours a day

What are VOCs?

Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) are emitted from various solids and liquids such as paints, cleaning supplies, building materials, and permanent markers. Some of these compounds can have adverse short and long term health effects and consistently have higher concentrations indoors than outside.

The Honeywell AirGenius 4 Air Cleaner's patented ifD® QuietClean filtration system helps capture up to 99.9% of microscopic particles.¹ This makes it an excellent air purifier for allergies. The portable air purifier can circulate the air in a medium room (150 sq. ft.) up to 4.8 times an hour.² It is ENERGY STAR qualified and uses the same amount of energy as a standard light bulb. The smart LED controls do the thinking for you and feature 4 air cleaning levels.

K Genuine Pre-Filter

This home air purifier works with the Honeywell K Pre-Filter. The Pre-Filter is the first level of filtration and helps capture large particles such as dust, lint, fibers and pet fur and helps to reduce VOCs & odors from cooking, smoke, bathrooms and pets. This filter should be replaced every 3 months. The filter check/reset light will remind you when it’s time to change your filter. Initial filter included. To ensure stated product performance, use only genuine and certified Honeywell replacement filters.

AHAM Verifide
