3What’s inside count
Austin Air HealthMate HM400 provides reliable and high-performance 4-stage filtration that would not deteriorate on its filtration strength in long-run. Firstly on medium to large size airborne pollutants, the trio pre-filters (including outer steel mesh filter) would trap them effortlessly while not stressing upon the last-stage HEPA filter lifespan. 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.Keep it down
