You do, I have been using two for about 6 years, and you can easily get at least 3-4× runtime out of authentic filters. I refer to external particulate matter sensors and ignore whatever the purifiers themselves are showing. You can also easily clean the filter with hot water, it removes any smells and has no effect on its purifying performance (again, using a couple of external sensors as reference).
- graphe 3y agoAre you using HEPA filters? Which ones? What do yours filter if not dust and how do you clean them? I have some that are washable but none of them are HEPA.
- vintermann 3y ago> Air purifiers do not filter dust and should never be bought for that purpose. What? What do you call the particles it filters, if not dust? Of course you can do with a prefilter which filters out larger dust particles so they don't clog your finer filter. But most air purifiers come with that from what I've seen.
