EnviroKlenz Air Purifier Plus, for home and business up to 1000 sq ft, HEPA filter, internal cleaning system (Black)

My EnviroKlenz UV had both UV Bulbs working.. both front panel lights on.. right out of the box (received it today..) suddenly (Approx. 3 mins.) one UV Bulb Indicator on the front panel went out !!!??!!!After checking in the unit.. I swapped out the bulbs from each socket.. turns out the one bulb is dead. The working one works fine on the other socket.Update: EnviroKlenz has offered to replace both bulbs at no charge incl. shipping! ;)

I wish I would have noticed this when I received the unit, but when I received my first replacement filter, I noticed that there's at least a one inch wide gap between the filter and the door that slides down to close the unit. How can the filter be expected to work properly when dust and dirt can easily go around the filter. Also, odors aren't really affected that much. I've used a must less expensive unit with similar results. I emailed the company regarding the filter gap concern (and mentioned the odor ineffectiveness), but 5 days later and no response.Looks like I just wasted hundreds of dollars for this unit because in another 6 months (after the useful life of the replacement filter is up), I'm either going to throw the unit away, or sell it on eBay. Very sad.

So I bought this as I have a severe sensitivity to cigarette smoke, one of my neighbors in the building has been smoking indoors and since the weather turned cold and the furnaces are on I have been suffering the ill effects. ( sore throat, coughing , wheezing, breathing difficulty, asthma triggered super fun right ? ( the furnaces share a common basement for 4 units ) so they are literally pumping the stuff into my house and smelling like an ashtray is great!! NOT!! Well , this little machine has significantly reduced the issue for me . I have several air filters for general allergies and such but they dont deal with the chemicals / gases from tobacco smoke. It doesnt solve the problem as the neighbor is actively pumping the crap into my air , but with this going and cracking windows in the other rooms it is reduced to a very annoying irritation rather than causing me to feel totally ill. So I gotta give it 5 stars. It may not look like a spaceship, but it is sturdy, well built, functions as it advertises. ( I tested with an air quality meter that does TVOC / particulates as well as co2 and HCHO. And once the source of the issue stops , this machine returns the air quality to breathable fairly quickly on high, and it is able to limit the readings to about 60% of the peak levels without the enviroklenz running.UPDATE*** I wanted to Post an update , while this machine works as advertised initially , I just now pulled the filters to inspect and I am not happy with what I see... there is a lot of large sized dust and debris that is making it into the machine and bypassing the filter. There is a collection of dust on the fan and I find this extremely unacceptable for an air system in this price range. The filter itself is looking great and no damage or anything like that. I have reached out to the seller for Explanation / Refund or Replacement. Preferably a full refund as I also have one of the IQAir systems that does an AMAZING job and after inspection exhibits no issues at all so far. So unfortunately I have to bump this to 1 star, I will be happy to adjust depending on seller resolution.

I got this EnviroKlenz Air Purifier Plus, for home and business up to 1000 sq ft about 2 years ago and since then I haven't noticed a huge difference in our 1000sq ft apartment. It's big and heavy with a full metal frame and is roughly a bit bigger than a 2 drawer rolling file cabinet just built stronger. It comes with a large filter, uv bulb and instructions. The uv lamp is supposed to kill whatever gets trapped inside the filter unless it's something uv resistant. I don't know if the intensity of the light is strong enough to get the job done. Otherwise it's large and now about $800, which for what I've experienced is not worth the price tag. You could actually get 4-6 smaller air purifiers placed throughout your home with better coverage and keep several hundred dollars in your pocket compared to the price of this one unit. Remember, this unit will not cover single rooms with doors closed but rather is supposed to function in an open area. Its just not worth it to me.
