High-Efficiency Particulate Air (HEPA) filtration systems are not a complete solution for appropriately cleaning the air to improve indoor air quality. While it can remove some airborne particulate, standard HEPA filters are not capable of removing some of the most airborne contaminants. While HEPA can remove large air particles such as animal dander, dust, pollen, and more, other common air pollution such as viruses, bacteria, and VOCs remain in the air. Learn more about standard HEPA filtration technology below.
pre-filter captures large debris before going through main filtration media(s)
large airborne debirs
fiber-glass or polypropylene filter designed to trap at least 99.97% of airborne particles as small as 0.3 microns in size
bacteria & mold spores (airborne particles only)
viruses (only airborne viral particles)
pollen, allergens, dust, & dust mites
Standard HEPA filtration can filter large debris and some particulate from the air. While its filtration technology can improve air quality and reduce airborne contaminants. Viruses, Bacteria, VOCs, Smoke, and Gases require additional levels of filtration and purification technology to be removed from the air.
Portable HEPA Filtration Systems like our Guardian Angel air purifier is a great way to start improving your air quality indoors. To bring your viral mitigation protocols to the next level and protect against airborne transmission of COVID-19, 5-Stages of filtration and ActivePure® Technology will get you there.
