Blueair 250E Energy-Efficient Air Purifier with Remote Control and Digital Display
Combining advanced features with an environmentally friendly design, this air purifier provides a continuous supply of clean, filtered air for rooms measuring approximately 10 by 20 feet. The air purifier comes equipped with HEPASilent technology, which uses electrostatic and mechanical filtration to quickly and quietly capture 99.97-percent of particles down to 0.1 micron in size, including allergens and other irritating particles, gases, and odors.
Thanks to Blueair’s commitment to the environment, standard triclosan-coated paper or glass filter fibers have been replaced with safer, nontoxic polypropylene, one of the least harmful plastics, which produces only carbon dioxide and water as it decomposes, which means no toxins released into landfills or the air. Polypropylene’s also waterproof, so the air filter naturally resists contamination from bacteria, viruses, and mold, without chemical additives or washes. The 100-percent recyclable filter should be replaced every six months (no tools required).
The air purifier comes with an easy-to-use remote control and a digital display system that provides instant feedback of particle detection, air purifier speed, and timer operation. Choose from three speed options that include HEPASilent for nighttime use, moderate fan for daytime use, and maximum fan for fast initial cleaning or very polluted air. For best results, run the air purifier 24 hours a day seven days a week. And don’t worry, you can run the system 24/7 without a jump in electricity consumption thanks to its low power usage. It costs about the same to run the air purifier as it does to power a single light bulb–from 20 watts on low to 50 watts on high.
Other highlights include a blue “power-on” light, galvanized steel housing, a special powder-coat finish that produces no chemical out-gassing, and built-in carry handles. The unit offers an ideal solution for people living with allergies, asthma, or other respiratory conditions, or for anyone who wants cleaner, more breathable air. The air purifier measures 9-1/2 by 17 by 21 inches and carries a five-year limited warranty.
Blueair 250E Energy-Efficient Air Purifier with Remote Control and Digital Display Review
This is a great unit for the price! I started with a Blueair 402 unit but that unit was just too big for my room. The 402 is way bigger than even the largest computer tower I’ve seen and it’s too heavy to move around too.
The 250E is the perfect size and can be fairly easily moved around from room to room if need be. Also, it includes electronics on it that has a remote with a timer, something the 402 model did not have. The 402 is slightly quieter at the lowest speed setting because it has a larger fan inside so it can move slower, but the 250E is still very quiet. Even at the middle speed setting, I find the sound level to be quite relaxing and I can even sleep well at that setting. This unit also has an automatic sensor for odors and particles when in the Auto speed setting. This works surprisingly well. I set it up a few feet away from my computer when I was blowing out the computer dust with a bottle of canned air and the Blueair automatically kicked in to high speed as soon as I started, very cool! Instead of just guessing which speed you should be on, the Auto function goes up and down depending on what it senses, a feature that I really like. You can basically turn it to Auto mode and forget about it if you want.
