The great thing about the Samsung Air Purifier is that you get to enjoy pure air in various ways to suit your needs. The Air Purifier uses a multi-layered purification system. Firstly, the pre-filter extracts larger dust particles. An Activated Carbon Deodorization Filter can also remove harmful gases*. Finally, the advanced HEPA Filtration with ultrafine dust filter captures up to 99.97% of 0.3㎛ sized dust**.
For the multi-layered purification system to do what it is designed for, the Air Purifier will need to be cleaned and maintained at certain periods. If the Air Purifier is used 24 hours a day, you will generally need to replace the 2-in-1 filter every 6-12 months and clean the pre-filter every 2 weeks.
A Filter Change Alarm will sound and the Filter Change icon will blink when the filter needs replacing. If you would like to purchase a replacement Air Purifier Filter please click here.
Below is a guide on how to access the filters.
