Important Note: Although specific IQAir models may be recommended for the control of certain contaminants, the manufacturers make no claim as to the specific air cleaning results that can be achieved under the user's individual operating conditions. The actual indoor air quality improvements that can be achieved with air cleaning systems depend not only on the system's performance, but also on factors which are specific to that indoor environment. Important factors which will influence the air quality improvements include, intensity of the contaminant and its source, the size of the indoor environment, the operating speed of the system, the number of air cleaners placed in the environment and the state of saturation of the individual filter elements.
