Pure Enrichment PureZone Elite 4-in-1 True HEPA Air Purifier Review: Fresh Air Guaranteed!

Last updated on September 8th, 2021

Design And Usability

Our favorite 4 in 1 tower air purifier to date. Pure Enrichment PureZone Elite is well-built, modernly crafted yet manages to fit in multiple filtrations in its thin profile. At a mere 9 inches in diameter and a height of under 25 inches, we have no issue fitting in the air cleaner in our tiny homes. Surrounding the air purifier design is a back air intake that pulls air in and an air outtake that distributes filtered air at the front. Oddly enough, there is a smart air quality monitor at the bottom that will display real-time air quality via the novel color-coded light detection technology. Moving PureZone Elite around is an effortless task thanks to the under 10 lbs weight plus the easy-lift handle for a secure grip.

Focusing on Smart technology, PureZone Elite is well-packed with many intelligent features on top of its standard 3 speeds. There is an auto mode that will only use top speed when a high concentration level of pollutants is detected. The optional sleep mode with light detection technology will set the fan speed to low and disable all indicator lights. Both features are great for nighttime use and conserve energy. Other features include a preset automatic timer that will shut down the machine when the time is up. Lastly, the filter reset indicator will light up to remind you to replace the filter after 6 months. Overall the touch-button is very easy to use despite lacking a classic tactile feel.

So what do you get straight out of the box? The complete set of filtration including a UV-C light bulb. Pure Enrichment PureZone Elite also comes with a guaranteed 5-Year Warranty with U.S. customer support. The warranty covers all manufacturer defects and faulty parts so you can have a long, worry-free ownership. Other passive features include ozone-free purification certified by California Air Resources Board.

Airflow, Coverage, And CADR

The more powerful the airflow, the more air can cycle through the air purifier resulted in cleaner and fresher air. With the multiple filtrations that could potentially impact the airflow delivery rate, Pure Enrichment PureZone Elite is averaging around 190 square feet of room coverage. Ample for bedroom, dining area, kitchen, and office with small room size. Given enough air cleaning time, you can also keep large spaces like the basement, garage. living room germ-free by setting the fan speed to the highest. Pure Enrichment PureZone Elite 4-in-1 is officially tested according to AHAM standards. Under a fixed room size and control environment, dust, pollen, smoke CADR is under 120 cfm which tally with the airflow delivery rate. We are happy with the CADR result but there are more powerful air purifiers out there that usually come at a cost of size or pricing.

Filters And Performance

The perfect 4-stage filtration to deal with bad air and seasonal allergies. The first stage 2-in-1 pre-filter will capture as much dust, hair, lint as possible to protect the HEPA filter from being clogged. Simultaneously, the activated carbon sheet will absorb and neutralize household smoke and odors coming from pets, food, cooking, cigarette, and external factor. Second stage True HEPA filter traps 99.97% of fine particles as small as 0.3 microns such as dust mites, pet dander, mold, pollen, and mildew. Third stage UV-C Light + photocatalyst filter irradiates and kills airborne bacteria and viral viruses e.g. Varicella, Measles, Influenza, Rhinoviruses3, meningitis. Fourth stage ionizer releases negative ions that attract and clump irritants in the air. The larger the heavier cluster particulates will drop allowing PureZone Elite to filter it out. Overall the filter size and quality are top-notch as expected coming from Pure Enrichment.

Noise And Energy Usage

Pure Enrichment PureZone Elite official noise level is below or equal to 60.2 dBA at max speed. In auto mode or sleep mode, it is whispering quiet that you will barely hear the fan noise. You can sleep well and wake up the next day fully recharged with PureZone Elite running in the background. As for the energy usage, it is rated around 46 watts output on normal use. We have been running our test unit for months and it is averaging around $0.04 dollars a day, $1.2 dollars a month, and $15 dollars a year with 12 hours of operation. Double the operational cost if you intend to run it 24 hours a day.

Pricing And Maintainence Cost

For around 150 after online discount, Pure Enrichment PureZone Elite 4-in-1 Air Purifier is a bargain considering the number of filtration and features you will get straight out of the box. Most air cleaners in this segment don't even come with UV technology let alone auto fan speed. However, the trade-off for extensive filtration is upkeeping, where the short 6 months filter lifespan means you will have to fork out around 72 to 100 dollars annually. You can disable the UV-light to save up some cost but we won't recommend doing so.
