Air Purifier Guide
help with Holmes air purifier, red check light?
i have a Holmes Tower Air Purifier. its the HAP422 series. on the top left hand corner there is a check with a circle around it. and the light under it is red. any idea why? read the whole owners guide and box, says nothing about the red check. it just turned on today. i don’t even use it frequently. and the filters are cleaned and new. what can it be?
I had the same thing happen on mine. I’m trying to find an answer, but from what I can tell it’s a faulty light that’s supposed to turn off when you change filters. I guess you just have to ignore it.
By the way, do NOT use the Ionizer. It’s supposed to be bad for you.

I’m really sensitive to dust and most of the “Big stuff” airborne particles, and my girlfriend has a HEPA filter at her house in her room, and I helped her change the filter once. But the filter, both clean and used ones, had so much black/dark grey dust that came off during the changing, it coated the floor, most of the furniture near it, and our clothes, and needless to say, made me really sick almost immediately.
Are there anyways to get around that with a HEPA filter?
Thanks for the great advise !!
Sorry I didn’t answer sooner – Hepa is simply the best and if it’s covered in dust/soot (I’m not sure how the new one could have been) I would suggest putting the sholw purifier inside a plastic bag and then take the filter out so it is contained.
Most people don’t know what they are buying.. this helps
You mention in this video that there is big stuff, chemical stuff, and alive stuff. Please look at IQ Air. This air purification system is over $650, but you get what you pay for. The big and alive stuff is trapped in the %100 sealed hyper-hepa fileter. The chemical stuff is passed through a filter containing activated aluminum oxide and carbon. The air moving impeller is in the center so it is silent. It passes the particle counter test which many air purifiers can not pass.
I know IQ – had one – good unit – but way overpriced…
Way too overpriced. I had one…. The airpodcleaner was less than half the price, twice the tech, and rated better…
Is the Airpod model # 9000 better than the RabbitAir MinusA2 (AP-1004) or BioGS (SPA-582A)?
Costs less, and has more technology from what I see
Great information. I own one of these and it’s great having it automatically detect how the air is
Hi: I own a restaurant in a strip mall and an ethnic grocery store just moved in next door . Stong odors (exotic spices) seem to waft in through the ventilation. I am only intersted in remediating odor. What is best? Thank You
For odor you’d want active carbon and photocatalytic.
Nice work. keep it up. mean time come for social media marketing for esteembpo**com qSAWQ

Hi; i meet alot of people with allergies. Does an air puriifier really help??
I went to the airpod cleaner web site. The CPH number is not stated on any of their models nor is the manufacturer. Is this the Japanese product you are talking about?
Good overview of air purifiers
Although it goes back a few years this video has some good basic advice…
Good info.. thanks for answering my questions…
