Q: QuestionDoes this air purifier also no zone machine? Does it emit ozone?

Asked 5 years ago by RS.

• A:Answer We tried a different air purifier (from another site) that really bothered my breathing and emitted a sweet smell. Researched, found the UV light was generating ozone, and that can irritate lungs. Had to return. This air purifier does not have a UV light component and really helps. I have significant respiratory impairment and am very sensitive. By comparison to the first air purifier we tried, I would say no, you should not have to be concerned about ozone with this Honeywell model. Better for breathing, better for the planet.

Q: QuestionHow well does this purifier work for eliminating cooking odors? Our exhaust fan does not vent outside so I need something to help prevent/eliminate lingering odors.

Asked 4 years ago by GrB1141.

• A:Answer My purifier works really well when someone is cooking. Turn it on while you are cooking. It sucked like the oil odor, purify it and then clean air you will inhale. In other words, the air purifier is a huge help to make a clean air that lingers inside of your house. I have actually 2 air purifiers in my house. I run them both for 2 - 4 hours depending what kind of food I am cooking.

  I would recommend:

Q: QuestionWhat is the CADR for this model (Honeywell Insight 190sq.ft)? I am looking for a unit that has at least 300 CADR and has a true HEPA filter. If I can avoid going to the next model up from this that Honeywell offers (500sq.ft.) that would be good.
