Vax Air Purifier Review

What Are You Buying?

1. HEPA Filter and Ioniser

The Vax air purifier uses an integrated HEPA filter to get rid of 99.97% of allergens as small as 0.3 microns. This includes everything from very fine dust to pollen and even smoke.

You’ll notice a difference immediately after installing this air purifier. There will be less sneezing, stuffy noses and other symptoms caused by allergens and pollutants in indoor air.

The HEPA filter does not work alone. There is also a built-in ioniser. When you switch it on, it emits negative ions into the air. They remove mould, bacteria and allergens from the air.

2. Ideal for Large Rooms

The Vax air purifier is rated for rooms up to 120 square meters in size. This is large enough for most rooms including those with an open design.

If you have a spacious bedroom or open plan living area, this is one of the best and most effective air purifiers.

3. Air Quality Sensor

When in auto mode, the air purifier automatically adjusts fan speed. This varies its purifying performance between low and high.

But how does it know when to lower performance and when to go full throttle?

It has an integrated air quality sensor. As air passes through the air purifier, the sensor detects the level of allergens and pollutants in it. If it is high, it automatically increases fan speed to quickly purify the air. If it’s low, it lowers fan speed to save energy.

4. Versatile Settings

There are five fan speed settings.

The main one is the auto setting in which the air purifier automatically varies fan speed based on readings from the air quality sensor.

There is a sleep setting which lowers fan speed to reduce noise. It also turns off any lighting on the unit.

The other three settings are low, medium and high. If the air is not that dirty, you can switch to a low or medium setting. It reduces fan noise and saves energy. The high option is ideal when there is a bit too much dust or smoke in the house.

How Easy Is It To Use?

The Vax air purifier comes with a remote control, meaning you don’t have to stand up every time you want to change the setting. But if you decide not to use the remote, the air purifier comes with touch-sensitive buttons.

Just a light touch is enough to activate a specific setting or turn it on/off.

The settings are clearly labelled and there are plenty of indicator lights to tell you what’s happening. There is even a light for the air quality sensor which changes from green to yellow to red depending on how dirty your indoor air is.

There is also a filter replacement light to remind you when it’s time to put in a new filter.

What Accessories Are Included?

Other than the remote control, no other accessories are included nor do you need to buy any. The air purifier will come with its own filter though you’ll need to buy a new replacement after a few months.

Vax Air Purifier Key Features

Pros

• Plug and play installation; no complicated setup.
• Easy to use.
• Ideal for large rooms.
• Highly effective at eliminating allergens and pollutants.

Cons

• A bit pricey.
• Slightly noisy at the highest fan setting.

Anything Else You Should Know?

While the maximum room size recommendation is 120 square metres, you can use it in a smaller room than that. But for much smaller rooms – less than 50 square metres – you are better off buying a cheaper and less powerful air purifier that will use less energy.

Conclusion

Though a bit more expensive than most air purifiers, the Vax air purifier outperforms them with its performance, ease of use and versatility.
