Winix 6300-2 utilizes the same filter setup as Winix 5300-2 with the addition of a fine mesh pre-filter. Majority of the large particles such as dust, hair and fur would be captured by pre-filter so the carbon filter could perform more effectively in dealing with odors and gases. For micron size particles that could now be seen by naked eyes, you have True HEPA filter standing by. Lastly the permanent PlasmaWave Technology would create Hydroxyls that instantly neutralize all allergens and bacteria without creating any harmful ozone in the process.Winix 6300-2 is covered against
