For over 40 years, IQAir has been at the cutting edge of indoor air purification. Started by two German brothers in the the early 60s, IQ Air is today an international, Swiss-based industry leader in the field of hygiene air purification. When clean, healthy indoor air is of the essence, IQAir is able to provide air purification solutions which are highly effective and yet affordable.
IQAir's innovative strength stems from our own research and development, manufacturing and marketing for all our products. This, by today's standards rare approach, has led to products which set new standards in performance, style and quality.
IQAir is proud to be the educational partner of the American Lung Association. Together we work on campaigns to educate the public about effective measures to improve indoor air quality.
90% of all particles are smaller than the HEPA standard's most penetrating particle - .3m. This does not mean better HEPA air purifiers cannot capture smaller particles. But the finer particles may slip around cheaper machines without tight gaskets and sealing.
For example:
- Cat dander and dust mite droppings go down as fine as .1m.
- Smog and cigarette smoke have particles that are as small as 0.01m.
- Viruses can be as small as 0.01m.
When the largest particulates have been removed by average air purifiers, indoor air will appear to have been cleaned. Appearances deceive, as gas toxins and fine particulates we cannot see remain airborne.
Most specialty air purifiers only clean up to 0.1 microns. All IQAir products filter down to 0.003 microns, thus catching even the tiniest smog, tobacco and virus particles.
IQAir builds better air purifiers because it uses superior air cleaning technologies:
* IQAir uses only the very best and most effective technologies. These are derived from million-dollar filtration installations used in cleanrooms, airports and hospitals.
* Unlike many of our competitors, we only use technologies, which produce absolutely no undesireable by-products, such as ozone, chemicals or charged particles.
* IIQAir only uses air cleaning technologies, which are user friendly and low maintencance, since we recognize that popular high-maintenance technologies, such as electronic or ionic air cleaning, annoy owners and quickly become defective.
IQAir has received more #1 product reviews than any other air purifier manufacturer.

Hospitals around the world rely on IQAir Air Purifiers to help protect staff and patients from infectious diseases like tuberculosis and MRSA. When the dreaded disease SARS began to spread in Hong Kong hospitals in 2004, the Hong Kong Hospital Authority tested dozens of air cleaners. They determined that IQAir made the only room air cleaners suitable to be used in the fight against SARS.
All IQAir air purifiers are 100% ozone-free. They are certified by the IAACM (International Association of Air Cleaner Manufacturers) to produce absolutely no ozone. Ozone is a lung irritant emitted from ionic and electronic air cleaners. Even small amounts of ozone are undesirable for allergy and asthma sufferers.
IQAir room air purifiers offer plug-and-play air purification on the highest level. These units are placed in the room(s) where you spend most of your time, typically a living room or bedroom. One unit is powerful enough to effectively purify the air in an entire room or connected indoor space of up to 1000 square feet.

* when upgraded to a HealthPro Plus with V5-Cell filter
The HealthPro Plus isn’t just a better air cleaner. It introduces a whole new level of air cleaning that has never previously been available for home use. Based on technology that IQAir developed for hospitals and multi-million dollar clean rooms, IQAir created its patented HyperHEPA technology. Ordinary HEPA is advertised to filter particles only down to 0.3 microns in size, but 90% of all ultrafine particles are below 0.3 microns. This means that an ordinary HEPA filter is missing 90% of all the particles passing through it. Science tells us that it is the particles smaller than 0.3 microns that are the most dangerous and can do us the most harm. Add to this the leakage and poor manufacturing quality of most residential air cleaners and you have a machine that will truthfully do very little to clean your air. IQAir’s HyperHEPA is the most advanced filtration technology that has ever been made available for home use.
Guaranteed Performance for the Smallest ParticlesIQAir’s HyperHEPA filtration is tested and certified to filter down to 0.003 microns in size with a guaranteed minimum efficiency of over 99.5%. This is 100 times smaller than what can be achieved by ordinary HEPA technology. (This is literally smaller than the smallest virus or bacteria.) There are no particles smaller than 0.003 microns, as anything smaller becomes a gas. This means that IQAir’s patented HyperHEPA can remove all particle sizes, down to the very smallest particles that can be measured, and it does so at an efficiency rating that has never before been achieved in a home air cleaner. The HealthPro Plus is the world’s first room air cleaner with filters certified under the most stringent filter standard EN (European Norm) 1822. IQAir’s HyperHEPA filter has received the official H12/H13 certification. This gives you the cleanest, freshest air that has ever been possible in your home.
Efficiency statements of many air cleaners look impressive at first glance. Air cleaners with HEPA filters often advertise efficiencies of 99.97% for particles of 0.3 microns (that’s about 240 times smaller than the width of a human hair) and larger. That sounds very impressive, but these claims are based on the theoretical efficiency of the HEPA filter material used and not on the actual clean air produced by the air cleaner. System leakage and inferior construction can greatly reduce the system efficiency, and independent testing indicates that many popularly selling air cleaners don’t even meet 10% of their label claims. This is particularly true of many air purifiers that rely on ionizing, electrostatic, and ozone technology. Some consumer testing magazines have reported that these technologies appear to do almost nothing to truly clean the air, but they continue to be heavily advertised and marketed to consumers.
Advance testing with a particle scanner allows scientists to examine the ultrafine particles in ambient air and the actual filtration efficiency of the HealthPro Plus. Some air cleaners that claim to be cleaning the air actually have millions of ultrafine particles escaping their filters. The HealthPro Plus is the first air purifier ever to achieve a “0” (zero) reading on a particle scanner test. This means that advanced testing equipment can find no particles escaping our advanced HyperHEPA system.
IQAir makes the only individually tested and certified air cleaners available for home use. This is a requirement we have for hospitals, and we provide this same level of testing and assurance to all of our customers. After all, your home, like a hospital, is a very important health environment. Each HealthPro Plus is individually tested and certified before it leaves our factory in Switzerland. Your HealthPro Plus arrives to you with a hand-signed certificate of performance so that you will know the exact efficiency of your air cleaner.
This is why the HealthPro Plus has more #1 product reviews than any other air purifier. The HealthPro Plus’ HyperHEPA filtration is #1 for filtration efficiency, and IQAir’s patented V-5 filtration provides the #1 most advanced gas and odor filtration available. IQAir systems offer proven advantages other air purifiers simply don’t have. Just take a look below.
The unique design of the HealthPro Plus helps to prevent shortcutting, which reduces the effectiveness of most air cleaners. Shortcutting occurs when the air outlet and air intake of an air cleaner are positioned too close to one another. This allows the newly filtered air from the air cleaner to be immediately re-filtered, wasting precious air cleaning capacity that should be used to filter polluted room air. With its air intake and air outlet at opposite ends, the HealthPro Plus virtually eliminates shortcutting.
