Badkuk, have you considered a stand alone HEPA filter so that you can use it even if the aircon is off?

yes sir, but imho

- a standalone HEPA filter would take up space
- i'd be better if the air intake(i.e. the AC) can filter out the bad stuff, instead of letting it circulate in the room for the standalone HEPA filter to filter it out

A standalone filter would be a lot easier to install though

Hmm, Imarflex seems to be selling HEPA filters of their own. OK kaya siya?

Most new ACs nowadays have HEPA filtering capabilities I think. If I may ask, why do you need one though?

what about use of aircon filter? will it be a good filter?

We're thinking about getting one for my dad's room, medyo susceptible siya sa pneumonia. We figured if we can keep the air cleaner, makaiwas siya sa sakit

Gamit ko sa room and sa Car Ozein air purifiers. HEPA, UV at Activated carbon filters siya wih option to use an Ionizer pero di ko ginagamit kasi mabaho. Sa aircon filter mesh naman gamit ko 3M Filtrete.

Sir medyo OT na pero if you dont't mind...

Effective ba talaga yang Ozein na yan? Been looking at it for months pero may hesitation pa ako kumuha

Thanks

bump ko lang to...

On one hand, there are air purifiers/HEPA filters being sold for under 7k(FreeAir at S&R, Imarflex), and on the exteme end, Sharp has units in the 20-40k range. Yung Sharp i think includes an ionizer and dehumidifier kaya mas mahal. Somebody also recommended Kenko air purifiers.

Right now i'm leaning towards the Imarflex units, but will look into Kenko -- eto lang yung alam kong me local source nung replacement filters. i already checked with Honeywell, wala daw silang kinacarry na replacement filters dito.

OK kaya yung mga cheaper HEPA filters? Do all HEPA filters undergo some sort of QC/certification before they can be called HEPA filters, or is this just a sticker anyone can slap on their products?
