Burtran Nano-Oxy Smart Air Purifier: Safe Sleep?

I’m blessed to study that Burtran's assertion was correct—its cognition did not effect successful a spike of radioactivity. My full flat was measuring astir 20 clicks per minute, oregon CPM—for context, 5-50 CPM is mean background. It’s erstwhile the fig hits implicit 2,000 that the GQ GMC Geiger Counter Nuclear Radiation Safety Guide says to evacuate and study it to the government.

Filter Fortitude

Burtran besides claims that, with its beefed-up HEPA 14 filters, the Nano-Oxy “captures 99.995 percent of ultra-fine particles down to 0.1 micron, surpassing HEPA 13 ratio by up to 90 percent.”

HEPA is an acronym for “high-efficiency particulate air.” The fig that follows HEPA is the MERV rating, oregon minimum ratio reporting value, which measures a filter's quality to seizure particles betwixt 0.3 and 10 microns. As the EPA explains, “The higher the MERV rating, the amended the filter is astatine trapping circumstantial types of particles.”

There’s a drawback to each that density, though—in definite appliances, MERV 14 tin restrict airflow. For example, DIY aerial purifiers similar the Corsi-Rosenthal Box urge MERV 13 filters, not MERV 14. The aerial flowed freely retired of the Nano-Oxy, truthful I wasn't capable to corroborate if this was the lawsuit with this peculiar machine. There is an indicator airy that alerts erstwhile the filter needs to beryllium replaced; the dirtier the air, the sooner the filter volition request to beryllium changed. Replacement filters outgo astir $100.

To Sleep Mode oregon Not to Sleep Mode

The Burtran Nano-Oxy packs a ample punch successful its foot-and-a-half by foot-and-a-half body. At 17.5 pounds, it’s casual to determination with its 2 broadside handles, but it tin efficaciously cleanable the aerial the recommended 5 times an hr successful a 270-square-foot room. I usually spot that benignant of room-cleaning powerfulness from larger appliances. It besides has an activated c filter to seizure volatile integrated compounds (VOCs) and a prefilter to seizure larger particles similar favored hair. The beforehand metallic mesh comes disconnected easy to entree the filters. The power sheet has a timer, instrumentality speed, car and slumber modes, and 3 grade angles—30, 60, and 90—that power the 3 slats for airflow absorption from the apical of the appliance. The Burtran works with the Smart Life app, which has 1 of the easiest dashboards to usage and pair.

I volition ever urge utilizing the car setting, arsenic an aerial purifier’s built-in aerial sensor knows erstwhile to set the instrumentality speed; this tin beryllium an contented for aerial purifiers successful the bedroom, arsenic the highest mounting creates the astir noise. It is that reason, noise, that astir aerial purifiers person a slumber mode option.
