Smoke generated by forest fires is comprised of water vapor, particulate matter and a variety of gases, including carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, nitrogen oxide and volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Our Blue family air purifiers effectively remove the harmful fine particulates in wildfire smoke. Customers can look to the AHAM Verifide Clean Air Delivery Date (CADR) value for smoke to verify this performance. Blue filters feature an activated carbon layer to remove only light household odors and gases and are not designed to accommodate high levels of gases, chemicals and odors present in wildfire smoke. Blueair recommends using carbon-based filters that remove fine particles as well as smells and ozone created by the wildfires. Also make sure you have an air purifier certified by the Association of Home Appliance Manufacturers (AHAM) and look for the Clean Air Delivery Rate (CADR), which indicates the unit’s ability to reduce smoke, dust and pollen particles. The higher the CADR numbers, the more effective the air purifier. It is also important to choose an air purifier that is the appropriate size for the room where you will place it. The Classic 480i comes equipped with Dual Protection filters to help with harmful VOCs.

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I have the 480i and can say it works well. i dont think you can go wrong with either one
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I'm not sure this will help with it as it would need to be present and activated during the wildfire in order to pull the smoke from the air; once it gets into textiles, it won't do anything. If you're in an area prone to this sort of damage, I would suggest either the 480 or the 680.
