For smoke, gas, and odor based pollutants, there are a 15 lbs. Activated Carbon and Zeolite specifically made for it. Finally, any micron-size airborne pollutants that manage to bypass all the previous filters would now be a trap by the 60 sq.ft. True Medical Grade HEPA filter.Covered against

More on Austin Air HM400
Constructed with powder-coated finishing steel, this made in the USA air cleaner is very bulky and large in its segment. With an extremely heavyweight of 21.3 kg, you will have to rely on the 4 heavy-duty casters to move it around. Controls are simple (or rather limited) with only a 3-speed fan manual dial knob; adding to that is Austin Air HM400 practical 360° air intake and outtake that can absorb and disperse air at all angles. Inside the air purifier (including the first pre-filter that act as an first-stage cover) is a deluxe 4-stage filters that consists of a large particle pre-filter that remove large particles such as hair, pet dander; medium particle pre-filter that removes smaller particles such as mold, pollen; 15 lbs. of Activated carbon zeolite filter that remove gases, chemicals, odors and finally 60 sq.ft. the certified HEPA filter that traps 99.97% of the leftover particles as small as 0.3 microns. As you can tell, the biggest highlight of Austin Air HM400 is the 4-stage filtration that can cover pretty much all types of pollutants and allergens.
