What’s inside count

^ Winix HR1000 filters/ lifespan/ price

Winix HR1000 5-stage filtration is great for owners with allergies and pets. The permanent pre-filter would first capture large particles e.g. dust, fur while prolonging other filters lifespan. Smokes and odors that bypass the pre-filter would now be captured by Coated Deodorization carbon filter. With many of the airborne particles and allergens captured, the anti-microbial coated True HEPA filter will deal with those uncapture pollutants mainly the smaller micron size while halting any bacteria from growing onto the filter. Wrapping things up is Winix PlasmaWave Technology that generates Hydroxyl to neutralize any trapped allergens and gases without creating any harmful ozone.

Keep it down

Winix HR1000 26.4 - 60 dB noise level is quite low for its class although the typical rules still apply here. Expect no noise in low speed, minimal noise level at medium/ high speed and loud noise at turbo speed. Power consumption is good too for this ENERGY STAR rated unit. Power consumption rate falls between 11 - 83 Watt depending on the usage frequency.

At what cost

With the specification and practical features, Winix HR1000 is worth every single penny you have to churn out. That could not be said for the filter replacement even though it comes in a bundled package with separate filters, filter replacement is still too costly and its a min requirement to change on a yearly basis.
