When do I need to change the filters in the Roomaid portable HEPA air purifier?

Although the Roomaid pre-filter is washable and can be reused, it is still recommended that you replace the filter once a year to receive maximum efficiency. While the Roomaid HEPA filter will need replacing every two to five years, the carbon filter must be replaced every six months to ensure that your Amaircare Roomaid continues to effectively eliminate gases and odors.

How do I change the filters in my Roomaid portable HEPA air purifier?

Changing the filters of your Roomaid air purifier is easy. For the pre-filter, first turn off the unit and unplug it from the electrical outlet. Next, remove the used filter and carefully discard it into a plastic bag. Line the seam of the filter up with the receptacle at the back of the unit. Pull the new filter over the unit so it covers the screen snuggly and you are done. For the HEPA and carbon filters, turn the unit up-side down. With one hand holding the HEPA cartridge, pull the motor fan housing out. Remove and discard the HEPA cartridge or carbon filter into a plastic bag. Sit the motor fan housing right side up and seat the gasket into the groove. Next, place the new HEPA cartridge or carbon filter on the motor fan housing and align the plugs in the cartridge with the holes in the housing. Once the holes are aligned, press firmly on the top of the cartridge to secure it to the housing. Finally, plug your Roomaid back into the electrical outlet and turn it on.

Can any of the filters in the Roomaid portable HEPA air purifier be cleaned and reused?

Yes, the pre-filter can be vacuumed or washed and reused. Once vacuumed with a HEPA vacuum cleaner or washed with soap and water, you may reuse the filter to extend the filter life. However, it is still recommended that the pre-filter be changed yearly to ensure effective air filtration.
