How to choose the right Austin Air model

All Austin Air air purifiers share the same hand-welded steel housing, medical-grade HEPA filters and zero ozone or ion emissions. The main differences relate to filter surface area, activated carbon quantity, room coverage and specific filter characteristics.

For rooms up to 80 m² with a focus on particulate, allergens and pet dander, the reference model is the HealthMate. Those with needs related to VOCs, formaldehyde, smog or smoke may consider the HealthMate Plus, with potassium iodide-impregnated carbon, which increases effectiveness on formaldehyde and ammonia. Anyone living with Multiple Chemical Sensitivity (MCS) will find in the range both the impregnated models, also used regularly by a growing number of people with MCS, and those with non-impregnated carbon and zeolite, namely the HealthMate, Bedroom Machine and HealthMate Junior, for those who prefer non-impregnated media. For the bedroom, the Bedroom Machine is optimised for overnight wellbeing. For maximum protection against particulate and gases, the Immunity Machine offers an 8-stage system with military-grade HEGA filter.

For compact spaces or personal use, the Austin "it" models offer HEPA filtration in a portable format. Use the comparison tool above to analyse technical specifications side by side, or contact us for personalised advice.
