Unlike AG900, Airgle AG800 comes only with 3-stage filtration bar the Titanium Pro system. For start, the air is drawn to the rear grill where the aluminum [aprefilter] would gather dust and hair. With large particles out of the way, the [acarbonfilter] would target smoke, chemicals, and odors from cigarette, pets and cleaning products. Finally, any non-smoke form allergens such as germs, viruses, and bacteria would be capture by the undisputed [ahepafilter], resulting in clean air distribution via the front grill at a 40% more effective rate than a standard HEPA air purifier.Noise And Energy Usage
