Tools and Hardware Reviews of Surround Air Multi-Tech XJ-3000D Air PurifierCustomer Review: This Surround Air Purifier, DOES NOT work Summary: 1 Stars
I first purchased one of the XJ-3000D SURROUND AIR purifiers. It looked impressive but does not do the job. I liked the looks of it and it appears like it would clean the air and after a couple weeks I bought another unit, exact same model. Well I use them for 10 to 14 hrs a day every day. I am thinking as time goes by, "Hey, this is great I never have to change the filter" In the meantime I am changing my whole house air filter every month, and let me tell you with 2 big dogs and 2 cats, my A/C-furnace Merv 8 filters are filthy. BUT why are these filters so filthy and needing monthly replacement when I never even changed my Surround Air filters once in over a year? Either one of them? Then I looked at the Surround Air Hepa Filter, took it out and it was CLEAN, "I mean new looking clean". How can this be? Everyone that owns one go to your machine, your surround air purifiers and look at your back of the HEPA filter, IT will be white and clean and those that say not probably work for Surround Air. It had a very minute bit of dust around the outside of the filter where air leaked around the perimeter, but the back was like brand new. So I took a piece of newspaper, about 3 inches by 4 inches, just one sheet and placed it on the intake, and it could not even hold this little piece of newspaper up. I did this on BOTH units. So how can this air cleaner clean the air? If air can't go through the 3 3/4 inch Hepa filter because the fan's draw is not strong enough to pull the air through the Hepa filter, where it is suppose to trap pollutants and particles thus emitting clean FILTERED air and coming out through the exhaust cleansed. It is not happening! If your air was being laundered your filter would be filthy and needing to be changed or in the least vacuumed. As an owner of one of these, I say, "Don't waste your time, money, and the electricity it costs to run this for this Air Purifier or buy its expensive replacement filters". Look for INDEPENDENT TESTING BEFORE YOU BUY AN AIR PURIFIER. This is just another ripoff on consumers.
Description of Surround Air Multi-Tech XJ-3000D Air PurifierThis ozone-free filter with an attactive gray casing combines the top five technologies into one unit: air ionizer for particles, HEPA air filter for dust and allergens, germicidal UV light for micro-organisms, activated carbon filter for chemicals, smoke and odors, and an anti-bacterial pre-filter for larger particles. Tests show that true HEPA filters (recommended by the Dept. of Homeland Security) are more effective than any other type of air filter at capturing dust, pollen, ragweed, dust mites, mold spores and other allergens. Germicidal UV light air purification, which destroys micro-ogranisms, is recommended by the U.S. Centers of Disease Control (CDC). Furthermore, according to Penn State Dept. of Aerobiological researchers, carbon filters serve to remove odors, volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and chemicals that other filters cannot. The Multi-Tech has multiple technologies to remove cigarette smoke and other odors, including the activated carbon filter and ionizer. The U.S. Dept. of Agriculture found negative ion air purification (ionizers) to be 99% effective at removing airborne dust & particles. Under normal circumstances, Multi-Tech replacement costs will run just $25 to $50 per year (for replacement filters and UV lamp each year). The Multi-Tech will only add a few dollars or so per month to your power bill. Its powerful fan increases air-cleaning efficiency by effectively moving the air. Even with the fan setting on high, the Multi-Tech is very quiet. The Multi-Tech air purifier has been awarded ETL safety certification and is maitenance free.
