What is a Class-1 Laser-Particle Counter?
We performed this test with a class-1 laser-particle counter, a handheld device that measures the size and counts the number of particles in the air, a key indicator of air quality.
Which Air Purifier Outperforms the Rest
Using a class-1 laser-particle counter, we measure different size particulates in the air, both before and after a single pass through several different popular models of air purifiers:
Intellipure Compact vs.
- Blue Pure 211i Max
- Levoit Core 300
- MedifyAir MA-25
- AirDoctor 82000
- Molekule Air Pro
Why Does the Airborne Particulate Count Matter?
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), World Health Organization (WHO) and other leading health authorities consider the following airborne particulates to be harmful to humans:
- Pollen
- Mold
- Dust
- Dander
- Fungi
- Bacteria
If you have allergies, you already know what we’re talking about. It takes a special device to remove these harmful particles from your airspace.
So, Which Air Purifier Came Out on Top?
We performed this test with a class-1 laser-particle counter, a handheld device that measures the size and counts the number of particles in the air, a key indicator of air quality.
| Brand / Model | Intake Air at 0.3μm* | Clean Air at 0.3μm* | Product Efficiency* |
|---|---|---|---|
| AirDoctor 82000 | 105,000 | 7,200 | 93% |
| Medify Air MA-25 | 123,000 | 16,000 | 87% |
| Blue Pure 211i Max | 120,000 | 6,000 | 95% |
| Molekule Air Pro | 140,000 | 11,000 | 92% |
| Levoit Core 300 | 140,000 | 3,000 | 98% |
| Intellipure Compact | 152,000 | 0 | 100% |
In this test, the Intellipure Compact was the only air purifier tested that removed 100% of particulates at .3 micron (the HEPA standard).
