Air quality in our homes is equally important as we enjoy our day to day indoor amenities. Clean air is not possible these days due to the constant degradation and air pollution.

According to a report by ConsumerSearch expert tests, the HEPA filter removes about 99.9% of dust particles and impurities from the air including pollen, mold, spores, pet dander, and/or dust mites.
