A:AnswerI started by new winix air purifier last April 5 . Lately the light changes from red .. yellow and blue. What does the color of the light means.??
A:AnswerYou will need to reset the filter indicator. There is a pin hole right next to the light. Use something that goes in the pin hole and hold for 3-5 seconds for the unit to reset!
A:AnswerYes, the product helped me with Pet Dander. I have a Husky/Akita Mix and when she sheds hair is everywhere. This causes me to have headaches. The product stopped my headaches.
A:AnswerHello, the unit is sensing particles or odors (vocs) and changing the air quality indicator to red. If the unit is being used in the auto mode, the fan speeds will automatically adjust to clean the air at the best rate.
A:AnswerHello Pat, that means that the air quality in the room has changed. The product is equipped with air quality sensors and indicators. Blue means good air quality, amber mean average air quality and red means poor air quality. Opening windows may bring in impurities and dust and cause the sensors to pick them up!
A:AnswerHello, the Winix 5300-2 is equipped with carbon filters and a true HEPA filter to help reduce airborne pollutants such as allergens, bacteria, viruses, hair, dander and other particles as small as 0.3 microns!
A:AnswerI'm a smoker. Now working from home I've set up an office in the basement. 1700 square feet. I bought this unit and placed it in the basement and can honestly tell you that it clears the air quickly. I have a cigarette about once an hour and coming in and out of the basement throughout the day I can tell that it smells fine. I'm very impressed.

A:AnswerHello, the Winix PlasmaWave does not omit any harmful ozone. It products both positive and negative ions and is well below the EPA standards for ozone.
A:AnswerI considered doing this but wonder if Units would compete with each other or one doing most of the work than the other making it a waste of money and not worth the trouble. In theory if Spaced in one end of the room and another mid way or other side of room should work to cover a large area.
In my opinion - I think better would a single, larger rated unit would be better than several smaller units.
A:AnswerIt has been used by my wife's school district in every classroom since the schools re-opened. Presumably it has passed some sort of verified testing but be aware that it is not a medical device and is not advertised as one, so the performance could vary from unit to unit. It is not guaranteed to remove virus particles from the air.
A:AnswerYes, it will be great in a room that is 150 sq ft. We recommend the windows being closed so it can circulate the dirty air. If windows are opened, more and more particles would be coming in.
A:AnswerHello, the unit will still help with the impurities, however not as well as if it was one big room. The particles may get stuck on doors and other obstacles.
A:AnswerHello, the difference between the Winix 5300-2 and 5500-2 is mainly the filtration. The Winix 5300-2 comes with 4 carbon filter sheets that need to be replaced every 3 months and the 5500-2 comes with an advanced odor control filter that we recommend washing every 3 months. Both units are equipped with a true HEPA filter and pre-filter!
A:AnswerHello, when the check filter light comes on, it is recommended to change the true HEPA filter. We recommend changing the carbon filter sheet every 3 months.
A:AnswerHello, the Winix 5300-2 comes equipped with a years worth of filtration. The product comes with a "forever" pre-filter that can be cleaned or washed. It also comes with 4 carbon filter sheets that we recommend changing once every 3 months and 1 true HEPA that should be replaced approximately every 12 months, or when the check filter indicator comes on.
