IQAir Cleaner Features

Ultra-Quiet Design

With its large fan motor, IQAir systems produce more clean air with less noise than conventional air cleaners.

Unlike most air cleaners, which have the fan motor located after all filter stages, IQAir systems have the fan in the center, in-between its noise absorbing filters.

IQAir systems also feature a unique double-walled housing design to reduce sound transmission.

Eight shock absorbers, which hold the fan ensure that vibration isn't transmitted to the housing.

The results are impressive. IQAir systems are suitable for even the most noise sensitive environments and are virtually inaudible at the lowest fan speed setting.

Advanced Controls

Intelligent Filter Life Monitor
Ordinary air cleaners have you guess when to replace filters or use a preset timer. IQAir's intelligent filter life monitor takes actual use, speed settings and air quality conditions into account. This ensures maximum filter yield and performance from your IQAir system.

Up to Six Fan Speed Settings
Most air cleaners provide only two or three fan speed settings. You have to run the unit either on a quiet but ineffective fan speed, or choose a more powerful, but noisy speed. IQAir systems give you the choice of up to six fan speeds, allowing you to select the ideal performance-to-sound ratio.

Integrated Timer
Each IQAir system can be programmed to run automatically. Set the unit to run during office hours or program it in your bedroom to go on after you have reached deep slumber.

Remote Control
Each IQAir system comes with a remote control which allows to turn the unit on and off, select the fan speed and activate the timer.

Certified Performance

In an industry where most air cleaners don't actually meet their manufacturers' claims, IQAir tests and certifies each and every IQAir system. In our Swiss production facility, each unit is tested for particle filtration efficiency, filter leakage and air delivery. Each unit is issued with its very own two-page Certificate of Performance, detailing the test results for that very machine.

Easy Filter Replacement

IQAir systems feature a revolutionary modular tower design, which snaps open to allow access to all filters in a matter of seconds.

Long Filter Life

The filters in IQAir systems are designed to last longer than those in conventional air cleaners.

High-Efficiency Pre-Filtration
While most air cleaners use pre-filters with particle efficiencies well below 20%, IQAir systems typically retain over 90% of particle mass in the pre-filter. As a result, IQAir's HEPA and gas phase filter are better protected from permature loading.

Independent Filter Stages
Conventional air cleaners often combine several filter types in one filter cartridge. As a result, the whole cartridge has to be replaced even if only one filter type is used up.

Large Filters
To minimize manufacturing cost, most air cleaners use very little filter material. IQAir uses commercial size filters that are able to collect more pollutants and last longer.

Triple Seal Design

The efficiency stated for most air cleaners is purely theoretical. Internal leakage drastically reduces the actual efficiency of most air cleaners.

IQAir systems feature patented triple sealing technology. First, a unique process ensures that the filter media is 100% sealed in the filter frame. Second, our patented 3D UltraSeal ensures perfect sealing between filter frame and housing. Third, individual seals on each housing module ensure an air tight housing. As a result, IQAir systems have an actual system efficiency which is higher than the theoretical efficiency of conventional air cleaners.

High-Quality Fan

IQAir systems use the highest quality fan motor available. The IQAir centrifugal, backward curved fan has an astonishing 700 cfm (1200 m3/h) rating. Because each fan is individually balanced and uses steel ball bearings, it outlasts other fans by years.

No-Draft Design

Most air cleaners return the air through a small outlet, which creates annoying air drafts. IQAir systems are designed to avoid drafts by evenly returning cleaned air through a large 320° vented diffuser.

Energy Efficient

Even though IQAir systems are very powerful, they are also energy efficient. Outstanding energy efficiency is achieved with a very efficient fan and an advanced fan control setup. As a result, it cost only pennies per day to run an IQAir system.

Long Warranty

Many high-end air cleaners are made from sheet metal which dents easily and where the paint scratches and chips. Many department store air cleaners use inferior plastics which shatter easily. Built to last and look great for a lifetime, IQAir systems are manufactured from fully cured, high-grade injection molded ABS. A 3 mm (0.125 inch) housing thickness makes IQAir systems extremely impact resistant.

Tough Housing Construction

All IQAir systems are covered by a two to five year warranty depending on model and country of purchase. Filters, as consumables, are exempt from this warranty.
