How often should I replace the filters in my air purifier?

Asked 2 years ago
The frequency of filter replacement in an air purifier can vary significantly based on several factors including the type of filter, the model of the air purifier, and the specific usage environment. Generally, manufacturers recommend replacing HEPA filters every twelve to eighteen months, while activated carbon filters typically require replacement every three to six months. If the air purifier is used in an environment with high levels of indoor air pollution, such as pet dander or smoking, more frequent replacements may be necessary. Some air purifiers have indicator lights that signal when it is time to change a filter, which can be a helpful feature to monitor. Additionally, those who operate their devices continuously or in larger spaces might find that their filters need replacing sooner. It is always good practice to refer to the specific user manual for the air purifier in question, as it provides tailored recommendations based on the model. Clean filters contribute significantly to optimal performance, ensuring clean and fresh air circulation in the home.
