Is it good also for COVID 19 germs? Thanks null

No. The germ has to be in the room before the unit can filter it out of the air. By then, anyone breathing can get covid.

Great question! All our air purifiers (except the LV-H126) utilize grade H13 True HEPA filters. They are capable of filtering particles 0.1 microns in size (including viruses and bacteria), but are advertised as 0.3. This is because 0.3 microns is the MPPS, or "Most Penetrating Particle Size." H13 means as many as .05% of particles that are 0.1 microns in diameter may pass through. We hope this helps!
