Air Purifier FAQs: Everything You Need to Know

In using Xiaomi air purifiers, the first step is to unpack and remove the plastic wraps. Then follow the instructions listed below:

• Take the filter out of its protective plastic bags placed at the back of the air purifier.
• Place the air purifier on a flat firm surface with at least 20 cm of distance from furniture and walls to maintain the air flow. 
• Connect the power adapted to the device and plug it into a wall. 

These are some easy steps to start using a Mi Purifier. Moreover, downloading the Mi Home App can help you in setting the device right away.

Absolutely yes! It does remove dust because Xiaomi has locked in a multi-stage filtration system that draws in the room air and traps the dust particles. It first captures the air particles, like hair, lint and coarse dust which prevents them from clogging to deeper layers. Next, the air moves through the HEPA filters to capture the microscopic particles.

The timing completely depends on the purifier's CADR rate. However, roughly this eco-device cleans a standard 20m² to 40m² space in 15 to 20 minutes. For instance,  Xiaomi Smart Air Purifier 4 refreshes the 20m² space in about 10 minutes, whereas the PRO variant handles the space double the size. The actual air purification depends on your room size and the fan speed you have chosen.

To choose the right size, you need to check the following conditions.

• Match your room's floor area to the purifier's Clean Air Delivery Rate (CADR)
• Compare different Xiaomi air purifiers lineup and analyze which one works best.
• Buy one size larger than the required one, as it will clean the air faster.

For the optimal results you need to keep the purifier on 24/7. Or when the room is occupied, leave it turned on, because the indoors aren’t air tight. They have continuous incoming of outside air pollutants, dust, pet dander, smog and other volatile components. So, it will clear the air continuously. However, if you think leaving it turned on can spike your electricity bills, or overheat the device, then this is not the case. Xiaomi has packed DC motors in them that consumes less power.

Xiaomi purifiers have an OLED Display ring on the front panel. It glows green for clean air, orange for moderate pollution, and red for unhealthy conditions. Besides, you can also feel the clean and gentle air pushing outside through the grills. Moreover, it is accompanied by a subtle hum that gets louder if there are pollutants in the air. This is how you would know whether it's working or not.

The right Xiaomi HEPA air purifier depends on your room size, CADR and filtration needs. However, the Xiaomi Smart Air Purifier 4 Pro is widely considered the best for overall needs of air purification.  It strikes the perfect balance of power and features offering a high CADR, providing fresh and cleaner air.

Generally, you should replace the filters after every 6 to 12 months. Thus, the exact timing also depends on daily environments and usage habits. Hence, modern air purifiers eliminate the guesswork by using smart algorithms to track real-time air pollution level. In this way, you are aware of the usage of the filter. If the usage is heavy then the filters can wear out before 6 months.

First of all, you need to have direct access to filter compartments which varies from model to model. For the standard Xiaomi Smart Air Purifier 4, 4 Pro, and 4 Lite, press the buttons on the rear side of the panel and lift the barrel. However, every model has an informational leaflet inside that shows you how to open a purifier.  So, the method will be different.

To replace the filter, first turn off the power of it. Then follow the steps given below:

• Open the rear magnetic panel to pull out the old filter.
• Use a dry cloth and wipe the old dust stuck in the purifier.
• Slide the fresh filter into the barrel.
• Secure the outer cover back in the place.

The purifier will automatically detect the new filter through the RFID tag, and reset the filter life from 0 to 100%. 

Xiaomi purifiers draw very little electricity between 4W to 5W on its lowest.  Hence, its maximum cap is at 30W to 50W on maximum speed that depends on the model. Its average consumption is low, because the majority of the time it runs on whisper quiet mode.  Even if you leave it running overnight it will only consume 7 to 15 kwH of electricity.

The pre-filter in a Xiaomi air purifier is the utmost mesh layer that acts as the first line of defense. It traps large particles like hair, pet dander and visible airborne particles. Moreover, it prevents these particles from going deep down the next layer of filter and does not clog them. So, the inner layer filters down the microscopic elements in the air.
