Tested with FLUKE 985 Airborne Particle Counter
I am super sensitive to smells and other airborne particles so I purchased the Bissell air400 for my office. I have been running the filter for about 2-3 months now and noticed the air quality was much better, but curiosity hit and I wanted to know JUST how much better it actually was! I used my FLUKE 985 meter and an office in the same building, on the same air return, separated by a secretarial office had a reading of 33,186 particulates at 0.3microns. The air from the filter was showing a reading of ONLY 258 particulates of 0.3 microns at medium setting making the office with the running Bissell air400 give a reading of 16,267 particulates at 0.3 microns. This is a reading with the office door open as well, so if door was closed, I have ZERO doubt the reading in the room with the filter would be significantly lower than half the non filtered room. What does all this mean? The filter actually works and HEAVILY reduces particulates in the air even on a 0.3 micron level! Breath easy my friends... UPDATE: I closed the door to my office, put the Bissell air400 on high and let run overnight. Air quality tested in room WITHOUT the Bissell air400 was around same as prior days reading. Air quality in office now with door closed overnight and filter running on high showed a reading of 1,686 particulates at 0.3microns. I could tell the filter was working, but did not know just how well until I was able to actually test it myself! I am not with Bissell nor paid by Bissell. I do not get ANYTHING from this review. As the owner of an FDA drug manufacturing facility, I had access to this testing meter we use for air quality checks and thought it would be a good show of proof that the filter works. I just did not expect that the filter would work THIS WELL!!!
