Tools and Hardware Reviews of 3M Ultra-Clean Air Purifier - Living Room Size (FAP03RC)

Customer Review: One point
Summary: 4 Stars

I actually have not bought this product, but from what I read, it is a very promising purifier, and I will get one this late summer. It is quiet and the filter replacement cost is slightly less than many purifiers, about $80 a year (no pre-filter needed). It has an average 290 CADR, very powerful for a $200 unit. No, it is not a HEPA units, but the electrostatic filtration technology work very well. I have just talked to customer service from 3M and they are very helpful and responsive. The power consumption is 80-141 W for this units, so it is not energy star, but it is not abnormal. I like to compared it to the best rated purifier by Consumer resports, the Whirlpool AP51030S. AP51030S is a great unit. It costs $300 and has a 316 averaged CADR. It is a energy star product with a power consumption of about 100 W at full speed (not certain). The annual filter cost of the Whirlpool is expensive, about $130 annual.

So, let compare the two units again, shall we?
Filtrete AP51030S

$200 a a unit

241 CADR CADR Smoke
306 CADR CADR Dust
332 CADR CADR Pollen

141W at Full Speed.........100W at Full Speed
$80 annual for filters.......$130 annual for filters

Another main point I like to make is that you will see two different Living Room Size Filtrte purifiers. The FAP03-RC and FAP03-RS. The FAP03-RC is the better one because of the additional holes, it has an average 293 CADR, as mentioned. The FAP03-RS has a 270 average CADR.

In addition, the review above wrote down the specifications for a different model. FAP03 is alot more powerful than the FAP04 series.
