Austin Air HealthMate HM 400

Austin Air Healthmate air purifiers come in 3 models: Healthmate, Healthmate Jr., and Healthmate Plus for those with chemical sensitivities. These are an economy buy for a HEPA filter machine with no bells and whistles, but good filtration of both particulates and gases and odors. Each unit is encased in a durable steel casing in a choice of 3 colors, and has a superb 5-year warranty on both the filter, and all parts and labor. This saves on filter replacement costs. We view these air purifiers as workhorses offering the consumer good value for money This Austin Air Healthmate air purifier line with HEPA filters, as well as carbon and zeolite filter media, are well regarded in the allergy industry. They have an unusually large amount of impregnated carbon and zeolite mix (15 lbs. in Austin Standard and Plus units and 6.5 lbs in Austin Jr.) for odor and gas control and the standard and plus models are the largest air purifiers of their kind. The economical 1 1/2 H.P. split capacitor only uses 115 watts of power at its highest setting, and the motor only uses 400 CFM of air movement cleaning range of up to 750 square feet (200 CFM on high for up to 375 sq. ft. for the Austin Jr. air purifier model). The air exchange rate is proportionately smaller at maximum fan speed. The included HEPA filter filters out allergens up to .3 microns and 99.97 % efficiency. The units have 3 fan speeds. Austin air purifiers do not produce ozone or negative ions.
