This layer removes 99.99% of airborne particles as small as 0.1 microns. It traps both small and large particles, including pollen, fine dust, smoke particles, viruses, and other microorganisms. This model also has a Laser Smart Sensor that detects the air quality in the room.
This saves a lot of effort from having to flip through the manual to figure out what everything does. This is by far the easiest unit to unbox that we’ve seen. With many units, unboxing it is the most frustrating part of the process.
The optimal filter replacement frequency may vary based on your environment and health concerns. You can also take advantage of a filter subscription with Alen that saves you 5%. Typically the filter cost is $99, but it lasts a year even when you use it 24 hours a day. The low power consumption rating of 1.8 to 45 watts will also save you energy bills throughout the year. Every product from Alen also includes free shipping and a 60-day return policy.
All in all, large rooms and CADR ratings do go well together. However, for a true master bedroom, the new 75i (#5 review) would be the best. Apart from the Classic, all other 4 BreatheSmart units we review are eco-friendly from the electricity needs viewpoint.
Again, a HEPA filter is going to do the trick for most common irritants and odors, including pet hair and dust. But if you live in a smoker’s house, look into something more robust. All in all, FLEX is actually the very best of the first 3 BreatheSmart air purifiers; you can read the full lasko pedestal fans FLEX HEPA air purifier review here.
These panels are easy to install to access also allow quick access to the filters when it’s time to replace. It’s a bit large in terms of the respective size, but I would say that size equates to power (and area coverage in this case. The air in our home is one of the most important factors when it comes to our health. If the air quality is bad, that will impact your health adversely. Which is why we are always looking for the best air purifier.
The capacitive control panel allows you to easily cycle through the settings. When it comes to bedrooms, you want a quiet filtration system so that you can sleep soundly. The pink noise omitted from the WhisperMax technology filtration system offers better sleep benefits than white noise. The quiet filtration is also beneficial for classrooms to focus on work, and students can dedicate more time to their studies. Your home office or even an office building can also increase productivity with the low noise level and health benefits from this air purifier. The Alen BreathSmart 75i protects 1,300 square feet of space from 99.99% of harmful air particulates greater than 0.1 microns.
For all its failings, I have to say that the BreatheSmart Flex is a good looking air purifier. It stands just over 2 feet tall and has a 15 inch wide lasko pedestal fans base and is just 9 inches in depth. For the BreatheSmart Flex, it should have an ACH of at least 4 when used in rooms smaller than 300 square feet.
Low – 41.5 dB Medium – 44 dB High – 50 dB Turbo – 56 dBWhen the lowest fan speed is set, the air purifier is rather quiet. The noise is comparable to the sound of a whisper and can be used in the bedroom when you are sleeping. Overall, each filter does the cleaning job well but since the costs vary greatly, I would start with the simplest one to see how well it works for your particular household. All of the composite filters last 9 to 12 months at recommended 24 hours per day operation.
A high-end air purifier with the price to match, the alen breathesmart Classic isn’t for anyone looking for a simple budget air purifier. But if you are looking for a powerful air cleaning machine for large areas and are happy to pay that bit more for it, keep reading. We are talking about two of the most powerful air purifiers on the market, with each performing amazingly in its niche. Still, the decision has to be made and, for this comparison, I decided to announce the Alen BreatheSmart FLEX as the winner.
