Does this air purifier effectively filter dust out of the air? Our house is close to a road-dust comes in our bedroom window!

I believe it does, but I can't quantify it for you! Basically, we see significantly less dust in the room we use it in as compared to before we bought it and in rooms we don't have an air purifier. We live on the cusp of central Texas going to west Texas, which means lots of dust and wind to blow it into the house, so we are very happy with it.

I'd say so! I live in Seattle where we have a lot of dust due to being in a Volcano region. I'm very happy with it. Great product!

I had bought a used one and returned it. My aunt had Ecoquest and it did and excellent job on odors and dust. We have a FilterQueen, Defender for about one year. It does a good job with odors and dust. I usually have several sinus infections during the winter months. This year I had no trips to the doctors and zero sinus infections. We have a ranch home and it doesn't keep the dust down as good at the end of the house. They had recommended we get 2 units, we only bought one.

Angelo, can not answer that true-fully because we do not smoke--I can tell you that once I started using It the dust in the back room was eliminated. It does have two filters-one Is a He-pa filter which traps the tiniest of particles.

It helps some, but this size is meant for a bedroom or other small rooms not a living room.I have mine in my bedroom on my side table (not on the floor) and have noticed some difference in the dust on the furniture.

It is not a dust or particulate filter. It generates sanitizing hyper peroxides which reduce levels of viruses, bacteria and mold in the air handler, ductwork and on environmental surfaces. You still need air filtration. I use a whole house pleated air type filter in the return air plenum just before the air handler. The combination works great together.

Based on my experience, no. I just moved to a house w central air and gave away my window unit. It worked wonderfully and the filter seemed to clean better than past filters I used. If you find your unit works harder with this filter, I doubt it's caused by the filter. Good luck!

Cant say for sure that it eliminates dust. But it does clean the air. And it does clean the air out well. All i can say is that i sleep so much better after purchasing these units. I have four of them, one for each room.

No, dust does not get back into the air. I use it in our travel trailer and it works great. The filter inside is washable.

I've used this item in vents and in my air purifiers...they are wonderful collecting lots of dust and other particles that have some size...I have never usedthis in an air conditioner...I think you might want to take CTgreens suggestion and try one thats a lot finer for the air conditioner...Give it a try...you'll have answer soon...you can always use this filter for other things...They are wonderful to use in ADDITION to filter in HVAC vents...You will be surprised!!!

No, it does not block out street noise when it is turned off, although it may be muffled very slightly. When it is not running, why would you expect that it would block out noise from the street completely? There is still the rest of the window with glass in it - just as before.

I use the Vacmaster outside for cars or in my shop. It is a Shop Vac. so I can't say if it blows out any dust.

I haven't really tried leaving it off for any length of time. Ours is off to be cleaned and the filter to dry well, maybe an hour a time, but in that time I don't notice the air being worse. We did have it off in the bedroom for a day or two and we needed it back on then. Keep in mind, my boyfriend smokes and we have cats and a dog in the house.

I hear you...I wish it took care of cig smoke. This air filter does not take odor out of the air. But it does help you breathe better.

I've got 2 of these and my house is still very dusty, despite bi-weekly professional cleaning. I do know that the germguardian does help, since it's filters get filthly as well and need frequent cleaning themselves. But you shouldn't count on it to keep your house dust-free.

I don't smoke, but it really does a good job cleaning out dust from the air (I live next to a road, and the road dust is bad). I think you will be happy with it. You might just need to change filters more often
