I doubt if you will be dissatisfied. I bought the IQ Air HealthCare Pro about 6 months ago. It is in a hallway for now. Even though it is not in the same room as the stereo equipment, I still turn it down to 1 or 2 when doing some critical listening. I think one has to expect some wind noise when a unit is turned all the way up.

I've always had asthma, but my wife has a cat and since we got married they have gotten progressively worse. Now any kind of animal dander makes my allergies go nuts. That's with Zyrtec, without it, it gets really bad.

I suffer from asthma too! but we're a no pet home. Nothing worse than not being able to breathe.

+1

That's what I keep telling my wife! I'm counting the days until we are also a no pet home. If this IQ Air works out, I'll buy more.

So far do good with the IQ Air. The first thing I noticed is how it did a great job cleaning up some glue odor.

Anyone with a Iq air have a recommendation on how you configure the schedule and the speed for longer filter life?

Default IQ Air Filters... Old and New

Here is the first filter of 3 I just changed... It's amazing what's in the air here in Beijing that IQ Air filters out.

Wow, at first I thought it was supposed to be 2 different types of filters.

I'm glad to hear your IQ Air is doing a great job Derek. It is an excellent purifier! Based on my space and budget, I found a Blueair 203 downstairs & 270E upstairs fit in perfectly and works great It's all about what's right for you and your home. Btw, here is a photo of the Blueair 200 series polypropylene 'smokestop' filter. It is pretty substantial and approx 2'' deep. Shown is the side with the enhanced activated carbon layer. When new, the other side is pure white & has a series of ribs which filters out airborne particles down to a still excellent 0.1 micron.

David, BlueAir has a great reputation. Do you run your unit continuously or periodically?
