Product Description
Austin Air filters address the complete spectrum of air cleaning, removing sub-micron particles, noxious gases and chemicals. Austin AirÕs 360-degree intake system draws air into all sides of the HealthMateª, passing it through a 4-stage filter. The result, more clean air delivered faster and more efficiently than any other air cleaner on the market. The 4-stage filtration systems works like this: STAGE 1 - Large Particle Pre-filter - Removes particles easily seen by the naked eye (e.g. dust, hair and pet dander), STAGE 2 - Medium Particle Pre-filter - Removes small to medium size particles (e.g. molds, spores and pollen), STAGE 3 - 15 lbs. of Activated Carbon/Zeolite Blend - Removes chemicals, gases and odors (e.g. sulfuric acid and ammonia), STAGE 4 - 60 ft. of True Medical Grade HEPA - Removes harmful micro-organisms - (e.g. bacteria and viruses) . The Austin Air HealthMate cleans up to 1500 square feet, with nearly 15 lbs. of Carbon-Zeolite mix for the absorbtion of odors, gases and chemicals. Every minute, over 400 cubic feet of air passes through 15 pounds of Activated Carbon and over 60 square feet of True Medical Grade HEPA, providing air so clean it could change your life and how you sleep. If not satisfied, return it for a refund within 30-days. Certified to remove 99.97% of aiborne particles 0.3 microns and larger, and 95% of airborne particles 0.1 microns and larger. Height 23", Width 14.5 x 14.5". Weight 45 lbs.

clean air again October 29, 2009
Pamela Leaberry (PA)
After doing a lot of research on quality and effectiveness, I chose the Austin air. I purchased one for my upstairs and liked it so much, I recently purchased a second one. I was lucky enough to get the R200-01-01 cheaper on A-Z for 324.00, no tax, 19.00 shipping. It was a steal compared to Amazon's prices and other vendors on the internet. I even got the larger one, not the Jr. size. It was brand new, not refurbished. I also found that some website vendors challenged consumers for a cheaper price any where else and they would honor the price. Check it out. It runs 450.00 everywhere else.

I bought this product at http://www.breathemoreeasily.com , but wanted to share my feedback in this forum. It has dramaitcally increased the "breatheability" of my air. I suffer from MCS, astham, and severe allergies, and the use of this product has helped tremendously...and even allowed me to reduce the amount of medication I take! It has already paid for itself!

Hi...I ordered this cleaner but after consideration, felt it was too big for us. The company, Noel, was cordial, friendly, cooperative when I needed to return it. I feel the smaller one room version would be better for us as I'd also like to move it all around the house, including the upstairs. I did a lot of research and felt this was the best on the market. You buy the Austin, you've bought the best.
Great Filter January 22, 2009

I looked into this a lot last year after I had my baby.
The major issues that I found were method of purification, noise, reusable vs disposable filter, and power/size.
Method: There was a lot of negative publicity about the Ionic filters because they can release ozone which is poisonous. The new ones use UV, I'm not sure how well they work but I don't think that they are great. The HEPA filters really take the junk out of the air and are pretty much great across the board in terms of air quality.
Noise: I looked at the customer reviews online for the various models and people had different things to say about each model. Check for the noise levels at the high med and low fan speeds.
disposable filters can get expensive quickly, most need to be changed every 3-6 months.
Size: purifiers generally say the size of the room that they can handle. Do not put the purifier in a room bigger than it can handle because it will burn through the filter and won't purify the air well.
I ended up going with Austin Air. They are expensive (between 300-550 depending on the model and where you get it, mine was 450$) and they are relatively large and heavy but they are on wheels so they are easily movable. They were repeatedly rated as the best purifiers below the industrial level. Its filters last for five years (they have a guarantee). Mine is almost silent at the lowest setting and pretty loud on the highest setting (sometimes I turn it on high and use it as a white noise machine to get to sleep). It works incredibly well, it removes smells from the room in seconds, and I sneeze less with it around. It pulls in air from four sides and changes over the air in a room pretty quickly.
All in all its a great purifier and I'm very happy with it.
The best air filter I ever bought - worth the money! July 8, 2007

The Austin Air Healthmate is the best I've ever owned. One large unit is enough for our entire house. It reduces (or even eliminates) odors from our cat's litter box and makes the stale air in our home fresher when we return from a couple of days away. We run it in the bedroom at night and wake up feeling healthier than we did before we got one of these. It's quiet on the lowest setting, and a little loud but very powerful on the highest setting. There's easy maintenance (just vacuum the outside once a month). Replacement filters are a little on the expensive side (around $200), but well worth it. The salesperson that sold us ours said we'd have to replace the filter every five years. We run ours constantly and had to replace it after three years. I think the expense is still worth it, as the quality of this product cannot be matched by less expensive purifiers.
