Can it effectively capture PM2.5 particles?

I seems that the unit works as sold. I bought a small VOC meter to prove to my wife that air fresheners were not the way to go and the room with the Blueair was by far the cleanest almost 0 PPM

PM2.5 particles are those smaller than 2.5 micron. According to Blue Aires website the filter are 99.7 effective down to .1 micron. So yes it will remove PM2.5. I would read Roman Budzianowski's comment below before purchasing.

I live in Beijing. I have a laser device measuring air quality, Dylos. The effect of the Blueair is very modest. You have to run it on high to see an effect. My building is air conditioned. I suspect that the resulting air replacement limits the effectiveness of Blueair. On the other hand when the air outside gets bad the air inside gets bad too (not as bad) so the Blueair cannot really keep up. I have 3 units and I am not sure if it was a good investment.

93 percent effective capturing Dust Mite debris,pollen and Mold Spores. It also electrostatic ally to capture smoke,pet dander,smoke, bacteria and particles that have odors

This is more for lead/asbestos abatement purposes. I've also used this while sanding and scraping paint off. It picks up finer particles. But I would definitely recommend it for sawdust and dirt applications. Better safe than sorry.

I have, it worked extremely well and covered like I was using a gun. Just keep in mind it won't cover as much as a typical aerosol can

It picks up a lot of dust but only minimally disperses it into the air. I was amazed of the dirt it picked up after sweeping a spot that I thought was clean.

I think it can!! DE is the way to go- as it filters out the smallest particles of any filter. I would do a Google search first- there is I'm sure a chart of what size pool each filter can handle.

Even good home air cleaners like these are only going to be moderately effective when used in a very smokey environment. They will, to some extent, re-radiate whatever they have been filtering.

Yes, it is very efficient at picking up dust-size particles. The bag is a fuzzy fabric with a very dense weave. If you have a lot of fine particulate matter, you will need to rinse it out frequently, even though the bag may not be full because the fine matter is clogging the fabric. You can tell when it needs to be rinsed because the bot will slow down a bit. It's easy to rinse, and can be washed in a washing machine. I had extra bags so I could put in a new bag, then rinse/dry the other bag while the spare bag was in the bot.

It does a very good job of removing dust, pollen, and other particulates, particularly if you turn on the anion generator. That helps precipitate particulates out of the air so you don't breathe them.

I would think it would do a good job of that. It blows really well, and the fact that it's lightweight would make the roof area etc easy to reach. There is no filtration system on it.

Yes but it may be to large for that purpose. One of the smaller vacuum devices would work better.

It depends on your trash load requirements. Personally, I think it works extremely well for almost all purposes and I recommend it highly.

I dont see why not, I use it to exhaust smoke from my single car garage and it clears it in about 2 minutes, Its mounted in the attic and wrapped with insulation, quite quiet for the size it is, it will definitely move your air and probably draw air from your house into the basement and than outside

I have only used it to blow debris and dust out of filters, etc., but I believe it would work. I have liked mine.

Based on the electrostatic technology, it should work better; that is, it should remove smaller particles from the air stream than does the paper filters.

Yes they do a pretty good job overall of keeping particulates out. I Use them for cement dust. Nothing is 100% when it's that fine.

The product does not claim to remove dust particulates alone. However, if you watch one of their promo videos on you tube, they do claim the process increases the size of the particulates which allows your existing filter system to become more efficient.
