📚 Frequently Asked Questions – HEPA Air Purification
What qualifies as “true HEPA” filtration?
True HEPA filters capture at least 99.97% of airborne particles that are 0.3 microns in size. That includes dust, bacteria, mold spores, and even some viral aerosols.
Can HEPA purifiers remove chemical fumes?
Only if they include activated carbon filters. These filters trap gases and volatile organic compounds (VOCs), while the HEPA filter removes solid particles.
What’s the difference between HEPA and ULPA?
HEPA filters remove 99.97% of particles ≥0.3 µm, while ULPA filters remove 99.9995% of particles ≥0.12 µm. ULPA filters are typically used in ultra-clean or high-containment environments.
How do fan filter units (FFUs) work?
FFUs are built into ceilings or enclosures to provide clean, filtered airflow downward. They’re commonly used in cleanrooms and controlled lab zones to prevent contamination.
How often should I change filters?
Pre-filters usually need replacement every 6–12 months. HEPA filters often last 2–3 years, depending on air quality and usage. Carbon filters may need replacing more often if exposed to heavy chemical loads.
Can HEPA purifiers reduce virus transmission?
Yes. HEPA air purifiers significantly reduce airborne virus particles, including COVID-size aerosols, which helps lower exposure risk in shared lab and office environments.
