Austin Air Healthmate Plus |
If you like the durability and performance of the Austin Healthmate air purifier, but you need a filter capable of tackling fumes, smoke,
chemicals and gas contaminants, then the Austin Healthmate Plus is the best air purifier for you. This air purifier features a "superblend" of carbon, zeolite and
potassium iodide that makes it a more powerful air cleaner. Designed for safe, quiet, continuous operation, this superblend of activated carbon
provides enhanced removal of VOCs, formaldehyde, ammonia, odors, and toxic chemical fumes. Ideal for those with chemical
sensitivities, the Austin Air Healthmate Plus air purifier offers improved respiratory health for anyone. The Healthmate Plus Jr. is a smaller and
less expensive alternative to the 400 size Healthmate Plus. *NOTE: The large particle prefilter for
ALL Austin air purifiers is the same. Just choose the correct size (400 or 200) and color (black or white).

Austin Air Healthmate Plus Product Features |
- Medical-grade True HEPA Filter for removal of 99.97% of particulate pollutants 0.3 microns or larger and 95% of particles 0.1 microns or larger.
- An Activated Carbon / Zeolite filter impregnated with potassium iodide removes VOCs, formaldehyde, ammonia, toxic chemical fumes, and odors.
- Built-in prefilter significantly extends the life of the HEPA filter.

- Three to five year filter life equals low filter replacement costs
- Easy to clean and maintain
- Long-lasting, energy efficient PSC motor

Plus Jr.)

Austin Air Healthmate - A Closer Look |
 |
Austin Air Healthmate Plus Fan and Motor Assembly
Austin Air has manufactured the Healthmate for over 15 years. The
simple, economical design of the unit makes it an attractive,
long term value. Air is drawn through the unit with a powerful 1.5
h.p. PSC motor through 15 lbs. of activated carbon / zeolite (impregnated with potassium iodide) and 60
sq. ft. of HEPA cloth. The unit only uses 100 watts of power on its
highest setting, not much more than a light bulb. |
|
 |
Cutaway of Austin Air's Construction and Engineering
Austin Air cleaners are not made of any plastic parts. Plastics off
gas and cause problems for the chemically sensitive. That's why
Austin Air cleaners have all steel construction. The sturdy steel
construction of every Austin Air product guarantees that your air
cleaner will last for years.
Austin Air's high efficiency PSC motor draws minimal current. Even
on the highest setting, it will cost only a penny an hour. |

Austin Air Healthmate Plus Filter Assembly
The prefilter will capture visible dust and hair, and
the exterior should be vacuumed monthly(no disassembly required).
The built-in Permafilt prefilter then traps medium sized
particles such as pollen and mold spores. The carbon / zeolite / potassium iodide mixture
and medical grade HEPA cloth combine to create a
filter that is almost 4 inches thick. This greatly extends the
filter life. Austin guarantees this filter on a pro-rated basis for
5 years. We recommend leaving the unit on all the time, even turning
it on its highest setting when you are not in the room. With constant use, we
recommend changing the filter after 3 years. |
|
 |
Austin Air Healthmate Plus 3-Stage Filter
1) Permafilt Prefilter
2) Carbon / Zeolite (Potassium Iodide) Filter
3) Surgical HEPA Cloth
With the additional large particle prefilter, the Austin Healthmate provides 4 stages of air filtration that rivals that of any
air purifier on the market. |

This has been just what the doctor ordered for our entire family. We all suffer from allergies and I also suffer from asthma. Since we have hooked this up not a single one of us sneezes anymore or has the sniffles! AWESOME! So good in fact we also have a Jr. in each bedroom!

    Healthmate Superblend is tops
Reviewed by: allergy/asthma sufferer with sensitivies from San Francisco Bay Area, CA

After replacing my master bath sink, there was a lingering chemical smell in the air from glues used....this helped so much, especially as my bathroom has an open doorway to the bedroom and I had to breathe it all night. I have now moved my towels into the new vanity and don't have a headache/irritated throat from the fumes.

Austin Air Healthmate Plus
The Austin Healthmate Plus averted a family crisis. My husband smokes cigars
"outside only" and test the motors of several types of lawn
equipment and marine vehicles in this same area. Though "outside",
the fumes and dust from these activities are drafted into the house
when doors are opened and closed.
We decided to try an air purifier in the ground level room nearest
the problem area. The Austin Healthmate Plus seemed like a good choice since we were dealing with more than just particles, allergens or smoke.
The Healthmate 400 was recommended for the room size we were in, and the filter type would trap
not only allergens and particle pollutants but also odors, chemicals, and smoke. I
also liked that black was a color choice and this unit has wheels for easy movement around the room.
We turn the machine to high whenever needed, and I do
not smell the offensive odors when I walk in the door upstairs. This
product handled a tough situation very well so I feel good about its effectiveness in less trying conditions.
What I like about the Austin Air Healthmate Plus
- Sturdy construction, the all steel housing is rugged and won't break or off-gas like plastic.
- The Superblend filter is capable of reducing a broad range of particulates, gases, smoke and chemicals from the air. Two prefilters trap large particles like
lint and pet hair while 60 sq. ft. of medical grade HEPA filter media scrubs out submicron particles and allergens. And 15 lbs. of a
carbon / zeolite / potassium idodide blend complete this four stage filtration by eliminating chemicals like ammonia and formaldehyde as well as smoke and odors.
- Easy maintenance. Filters last literally years longer than other popular air purifiers and the separate prefilter needs to be replace only once per year. Aside from this,
simply vacuum the outside area of the unit and let the Healthmate Plus do all the work.
- Long filter life. Most of the air purifiers you find on the market today generally call for a filter replacement every 3 - 6 months. The Superblend
filter in the Austin Plus averages about 4 years of life before it needs to be replaced, substantially reducing your maintenance costs.
- 5 year manufacturer warranty on the air purifier itself and a pro-rated 5 year warranty on the filter.
What I didn't like the Austin Air Healthmate Plus
- The machine is loud on high. Not a problem for this application but could be in some situations. In reality, the decibal level for most air purifiers, on
their respective highest settings, is rather loud. The noise the Austin makes is similar to most and generally not as loud as a box fan on high.
- No automated indicator for filter replacement. All Austin air purifiers sold by AchooAllergy.com come with a filter replacement sticker which can be applied anywhere
on the air purifier. On it is the date of purchase and the interval at which the filters should be replaced.
In summary, I give the Austin Healthmate Plus 5 stars. It performs very well
in a very difficult situations. Regardless of the contaminants the Healthmate Plus is capable of filtering them and providing fresh, clean air. The overall cost to maintain combined with
a reasonable initial cost makes Austin air purifiers some of the most popular available today. Austin Air has a long tradition of excellence, and the Healthmate is just one example of
a durable, quality product without the expense of gimmicks or gadgets.
The Healthmate Plus Jr. is the essentially the same great product as the standard Healthmate Plus, simply in a smaller package. The size is smaller though the air cleaning
capacity is ideal for most bedrooms and living spaces. Though the quantities of filter media are less, the engineering behind it and filtration quality are the same. With a lower
price point, the Healthmate Plus Jr. has long been a trusted alternative as an air purifier from smaller areas.
