There's quiet filters. I can barely hear the one(s) in my house, and they're just cheapo ones. Typically the key is to keep the fan speed reasonable, if you crank it up all the way almost any fan is going to be loud.
- ComputerGuru 5y agoThe sound increases with the air pressure requirement. A true HEPA filter requires much greater air pressure than a typical air purifier filter.
- kadoban 5y agoThe ones I have are HEPA and the fan speed is still variable, and very quiet on low.
- gpm 5y agoCan you recommend the model you have? The one I have is loud enough on it's lowest setting that I don't like leaving it on in the background :(
- asdff 5y agoIf you go on Amazon they have many HEPA models that advertise their decibel levels explicitly. If its listed as going down to the low 20s in decibels it will be almost completely silent.
- kadoban 5y agoSure, ya it's the Winix 5300. Bit confused on the price though, I remember it being significantly cheaper than the prices I see for it now. I do like it though (one note: I never use the "plasma wave" or whatever that is, just the filtering).
