Regular pre-filter vacuuming extends the life of your HEPA and carbon filters. Use these routines to keep airflow strong and internal air monitors accurate.
Care schedule
A simple timeline for ongoing care
01
Every two weeks: vacuum the pre-filter
Gently vacuum the pre-filter to remove dust and pet hair before it reaches the HEPA and carbon layers.
02
Monthly: check the carbon layer
Look for discoloration or a strong odor. Noticeable smells can signal that the carbon layer is nearing capacity.
03
Annually: replace the HEPA filter
Swap the HEPA filter on schedule or sooner if airflow drops noticeably, and follow the model's replacement guidance.
Care tips
Small habits that protect performance
Clean sensors gently, reset indicators correctly, and choose replacement filters designed for your model.
Wipe the dust sensor lens
Use a dry, soft cloth to clean the air sensor lens so internal readings stay accurate between service visits.
Reset the filter indicator
After replacing a filter, follow the manufacturer's reset button procedure so the indicator tracks the new filter's life.
Choose OEM replacement filters
Manufacturer-designed filters fit the airflow path and seal properly, helping the purifier perform as its specifications describe.
