Is Blueair Blue Pure 211 a true HEPA air purifier? null

Hi Sonia! It is not. Blue is designed for maximum airflow and performance to provide more clean air with less energy usage and less noise. This is accomplished by the unique filter media which provides less restriction for air movement based on a less dense filter composition. If Blue used a HEPA filter, the room size would be approximately 60% or less. Using the Blue advanced filtration we can provide best in class performance and cover larger areas

No, the Pure 211 does not use a HEPA filter. In fact, you can buy 2 true HEPA filter purifiers (like the Winix 5500) for the same price and get a much better result (250CFM each x2 = 500CFM vs. just 350CFM with the one Pure 211 unit). Hope that makes sense.

No, it is not. They call it HEPASilent to get around having to tell you that it is not a real HEPA filter. If it was a real hepa filter, they would have called it out as such.

From the Blue Air website: Are Blueair filters HEPA? No, Blueair filters are less dense than traditional HEPA filters, allowing our air purifiers to be quieter and more energy-efficient. Instead of HEPA filters, we use a combination of electrostatic and mechanical filtration that we call HEPASilent™ technology to achieve the same level of filtration efficiency - with less energy and noise.

So no Blueair pure is not a true Hepa air purifier. If you go back to previous answers which I believe is one of the first ones blue air support answered themselves and said indeed blueair was not a true hepa filter

The Blue Air Pure 211+ is indeed a true HEPA purifier. Those other answers are several years old.

Yes,the Blueair Pure is a true HEPA filter. It is extremely quiet on low speed and not very loud on high speed. About like a quiet room fan.
