Your Best Digs

The Winix 5500-2 is an exceptional performer, but its stark look, lack of a display shutoff, and slightly higher electrical use are (minor) shortcomings.

TechGearLab

The Winix 5500-2 is one of the most effective air purifiers we tested, as it consistently reduced the measurable concentration of airborne particles by 99.99%. Perhaps equally impressive is that it achieved this without producing more than a gentle, inoffensive humming sound. Many of the other units produce an obnoxious and high-pitched whistle. This unit is loaded with features, including an air quality monitor, which automatically adjusts the settings based on current ambient air quality. The Winix also comes with a remote control and has different fan settings and programmable timers.
The obvious drawback is the price. This high-quality machine costs a great deal more than others in our fleet. Given its truly excellent performance, it is a worthy investment for your household's ongoing health. If you're looking for the absolute best-performing air purifier and willing to spare no expense, this may be the model for you.

 Now, you could put the new filters in the machine so that the true HEPA filter goes first, then the activated carbon filter, then the pre-filter and the cover. After replacing the filter, reset the filter indicator by inserting a needle into the filter reset button for five seconds. For more details on this procedure, see Air Purifier first. Calm: The link is in the description

 In the following scenes, we will exhibit how the Winx 5500 - 2 behaves in a smoke box. We fill the box up with smoke and then turned on the Winx Air Purifier in turbo mode. Keep in mind that Winx is progressively increasing its speed so it will take a few seconds for it to start running at the maximum speed. Winix is a company that's been presently on the market for a very long time

 Air pollution is measured via smart sensor. In addition to the smart sensor, there is also the light sensor. So if the room is dark and auto mode is on, the device will automatically change to sleep mode. First, remove the old filters from the device

 This feature is helpful because air will not flow directly into you if you stand in front of it. In auto mode, the device automatically adjusts the speed based on air pollution. Air pollution is measured via smart sensor. In addition to the smart sensor, there is also the light sensor

Winix 5500-2 Air Purifier Review (Performance Test and Smoke Box)

We did a lot of digging through reviews and Consumer Reports type publications, and settled on Winix 5500-2 as the best purifier for the money. It has multiple filtering stages (and one of the filters is washable multiple times before it needs to be replaced) and has a large air throughput while also being very quiet (these are generally the characteristics to look for in a purifier). Still, 1000 square feet is a lot, and you’ll probably want 2-3 of them, placed in areas where things are dustier/smellier. They are quite compact and not too noticeable against a wall

My husband and I recently adopted a cat and obviously any pet brings in general pet odor and dander. Our home is open concept — so I figured we’ll need a fairly large air purify to cover the main level. (1,000 square feet) Are air purifiers worth the price tag? Do they actually help odor, dust in the home and allergens? I also have asthma and have wondered if an air purifier would be worth it for that reason too. Any advice is appreciated!

Air Purifiers...are they worth it?

The new remotes are junk

 That's what you use to reset the device when you put in a fresh new filter to the right of that you're going to see a white circle and I think what that is is the light sensor that senses the light in the room so that it can effectively switch back and forth between auto mode and night mode when it's in the auto mode. To the right of that, you have what looks like a little series of holes in the device and that is the air particle sensor in the unit that actually detects the particulate level in the air. Moving on to the multi-stage filter design, the first line of defense with this air purifier is going to be the pre-filter And the pre-filter is actually kind of like a screen that filters out large airborne particles so that the layers behind it do not have to deal with those larger particles. The second layer is going to be a carbon pellet layer, and the carbon pellet layer actually serves to filter out volatile organic compounds and odors

 So then when you turn the light back on or light is restored in the room, then it switches back from night mode to auto mode. What's really cool about the auto mode is that not only does the fan rpm speed change based on how dirty the air is, the light in the front will actually be a great indicator on how dirty the air is as well. When it's on blue, the air is relatively clean and it'll be on a lower rpm speed. And then as the air particle sensor senses more particles in the air, it'll switch over and the light will change to orange

 Now with the manual speed button, you actually have one to turbo, so you have one, two, three, and then the turbo setting. When you press the manual speed button to shift through these fan speeds, then you actually shift the mode of the air purifier from auto to the manual speed mode. When you do that, that blue light on the front will not turn off the the plasma wave letters on the top will actually turn off if you shut off the plasma wave. but that blue bar underneath when in manual mode cannot be turned off to the right of the manual fan speed button

 And when in night mode, all the lights on the front interface design shut off with exception to the icon lights that are right above the mode button. So when you leave the air purifier on auto mode, there's actually a built-in light sensor. So if the lights are turned off in the room and there is darkness, the auto mode will automatically switch from auto to night mode. And when the night mode happens, there's actually a reduced rpm speed

Winix 5500-2 Air Purifier - Do I Recommend? Unboxing & Review

Are my downstairs neighbors hotboxing their apartment, or could my air purifier be creating this dank smell?

I own a Winix 5500-2 Air Purifier. I let it run constantly on its next to highest speed, and I turned off the PlasmaWave feature for the safety of my cat.

Winix 5500-2 Air Cleaner with PlasmaWave Technolog

 that filter cannot be clean and it has to be replaced. This unit also comes equipped with a true HEPA filter. In the world of air purifiers, the true HEPA filter is really the gold standard for particle filtration. So anything like allergens, dust, mold, spores, any type of particle that travels in the air through this unit will be filtered out by that true HEPA filter

 You need proper air filters and you also need good output. And this unit does give you very high output at 250 CFM In terms of filters again, this unit features that washable pre-filter The washable pre-filter is the first filter that the air will actually travel through, and the purpose of that washable pre-filter is to filter out larger particles so things like hairs, larger fibers, all types of larger particles like that are caught by the pre-filter and what that does is it allows the pre-filter to saturate with those types of particles so that they don't saturate the true HEPA filter instead. So that is the purpose of that pre-filter And this unit does have a washable pre-filter And this is important because a lot of units out on the market have a replaceable pre-filter and what that means is that as those pre-filter saturate with all of these larger particles, they need to eventually be replaced. And of course, replacing them means buying them, buying replacements for them

 The units have equal output, so you have slightly better energy efficiency on the highest fan speed with the Winix compared to the Co way, but otherwise both units are very much equal in terms of energy efficiency and noise output. So what would be our final recommendation between the Co Way and the Winix? Well, it really comes down to two things, and that is gas filtration and price. For both of those things, the Winix is the better option here. It filters gas, is better, and also is a lower price at most retailers

Winix 5500-2 Review

Check out the Austin Air Healthmate ($595) if you want a single large unit, or the Winix 5500-2 ($160) if you want to place a unit in each room (probably the most effective approach)

 So I am thinking about purchasing the rabbit air minus a2 which covers around 700 square feet. My bedroom and living room combined is roughly 700 square feet. However, the living room is openly exposed to the rest of the apartment and my apartment in total is about 1200 square feet.

My question is that, would the larger size of the apartment defeat the purpose of the purifier since it is exposed to a location that is much larger than it is supposed to handle?

p.s. I am not completely set on the rabbit air minus a2 and would gladly take in other suggestions that are cheaper.

Could I use one air purifier for my entire apartment?

As an opened-box item, this unit was sold at a slightly reduced price. However, once plugged in, the air quality sensor (which changes from red to orange to blue) did not work properly—switching overly frequently back-and-forth. Despite this flaw, I felt like I could live with it. A couple months passed by when the fan started making a disturbingly loud grating noise, as if it were unbalanced

 I used black electrical tape to cover up the air quality indicator and other lights and have had no problem at night. Leave it running all the time. You do need to check it every other week to clean the pre-filter in the shower or bathtub. Use a towel to dry it

Trouble with second unit was resolved. Good product

Hi everyone!

I need some help selecting an air purifier for me and my families specific needs. I am looking for three rooms in my home.

The main reason for each room is severe environmental allergies and dust. 

Room 1-300 sq/4 year old sons room
He has seasonal allergies that ramps up in Spring. He is In preschool this year and brings home a new virus each week it seems. 

Room 2-450sq/Master Bedroom
I suffer from severe environmental allergies, including all trees but pine, grass, dust mites and the list goes on. I am receiving 3 allergen immunotherapy injections every 3 days since October to help combat, so it’s a work in progress. 

Room 3-500 sq/Living Room
Main living space for the three of us. Sits right next to the kitchen, not open concept. This purifier is for any kitchen smells that linger and mainly dust/allergens. 

My price point is max $500 for each purifier. 

Any help you guys could offer would be great. 

Thank you!
