The Blueair 503 Air Purifier
The BlueAir 503 Air Purifier effectively
purifies air in rooms as large as 580 square feet and features quiet
operation, low energy use, steel construction and easy maintenance. Using patented
two-stage
HEPASilent™ technology,
it captures 99.97% of the tiniest 0.1 micron particles,
including allergy-provoking
pollen grains, dust mites, mold spores and pet dander particles.
Our efficient SurroundAir™ vent
system delivers exceptional air exchange (up to 500 cubic feet per minute)
without annoying drafts with performance that
earned the "Best of Class" ranking in independent
AHAM testing of Clean Air Delivery Rate.
Easy maintenance: simply open the unit`s lid, lift out and drop in filters
every 6 months, no tools necessary. Choose the optional SmokeStop Filter
Kit for better protection from smoke and other airborne gases.
Superior
Quality
Blueair
is built for people who expect the very best, and won`t compromise on
health, design or function. The Blueair system housing
is made of galvanized Swedish steel.
The fan and blower are manufactured by EBM, a maker of telecom and medical
equipment.
Blueair systems offer an exceptionally long product life and carry a
10-year limited warranty.
Quiet
Sophisticated
materials and precision engineering allow Blueair to clean indoor air without
the
noise associated with less advanced units. On the
lowest setting, the units emit no more sound than a desktop computer.
To
achieve exceptionally quiet operation, Blueair`s patented HEPASilent™ filter
technology traps particles two ways: with mechanical and electrostatic filters.
This combination creates a filter system through which air flows freely.
Most air cleaners require a powerful, noisy fan to pull air through densely
packed filters. Since air passes easily through Blueair filter media, the
fan doesn`t have to work as hard or as loud.
Even the housing is designed
with quiet operation in mind, replacing sound-sonant plastic with noise-muffling
steel.
Surround Air
Instead of discharging
a windy stream of filtered air, the Blueair 503 diffuses air gently through
an area six times greater than the average air cleaner.
Operating on its lowest setting, Blueair produces virtually no noticeable
draft, while still providing an exceptional air exchange rate. Blueair`s
SurroundAir™ system achieves peak performance, without annoying drafts,
by drawing in dirty air from the sides and bottom, moving it through a less
dense filter media, and releasing clean, filtered air from the sides and
top.
Energy Efficient
Blueair`s
phenomenally low power usage means you can run the system 24/7 without
a jump in electricity
consumption. In fact, it costs about the
same to clean the air in your home as it does to power a single lightbulb:
only 15 watts on low to 95 watts on high.
Environmentally
Aware
Blueair products offer exceptional performance without polluting the environment.
Blueair replaces standard triclosan-coated paper or glass filter fibers,
which can harm the environment when released into the waste stream, with
safer, nontoxic polypropylene. This revolutionary filter media is one of
the least harmful plastics, producing only carbon dioxide and water as it
decomposes.
Because polypropylene is waterproof, our filters naturally resist
contamination from bacteria, viruses and mold, without chemical additives
or washes. Blueair even uses a special powder coat finish that produces
no chemical outgassing.
Award
Winning Swedish Design
The
union of visually pleasing form and effective function is a hallmark of
Swedish design, and
Blueair is no exception. Its sleek contemporary look
has earned Blueair one of the most prestigious design awards in Scandinavia,
the Excellent Swedish Design award.
Easy to Use
Plug
it in, select the speed setting, and forget it. Blueair works so quietly,
at first you may
find yourself wondering if its turned on. Just check
the bright blue power on light.
Blueair filters require no weekly additives
or filter washing. The grilles and powder-coated steel exterior are easy
to wipe clean, and won`t pick up grime and oily stains the way plastics
can. When the filter needs to be replaced (twice yearly), just open the lid,
lift
out the old filters and drop the new ones in. No tools needed and
less than one minute of your time are required.
Used filters are 100% recyclable,
and release no toxins into landfills or the air.
