Cleaning and Maintenance
Your air purifier will automatically tell you when it’s time to replace the dual action HEPA H13 and active carbon filters on the unit.
The filter replacement light will illuminate in red after 2,500 hours of continuous use.
The H13 high-grade HEPA filters should be vacuumed once a month for the air purifier to perform at its best.
If the air purifier contains dust or pet dander, it’s best to clean the removable metal pre-filters more often than once a month to maintain 2,500 hours of filter life.
The metal pre-filters are to be hand-washed only.
If the filters are fairly clean, wash each filter with soapy, warm water.
If the pre-filters are very dirty, you may need use a soft brush to gently clean them.

There seem to be a number of very different filters out there with “Cuisinart PuRXium H13 HEPA filter” in the title… any leads on what the right model is?
@Catholicizer yes, 88 stands for heil hitler in nazi terms because H is the 8th letter. But just like swastikas, people use it for other things, the nazis don’t own it.
/showme parrots clogging Cuisinart PuRXium H13 HEPA Air Purifier with dust for laughs. Unhappy human in background mumbles “My little parrots are so dimpressive”.
The Cuisinart website says they’re discontinued. That usually just means you can get a good deal. This is the cheapest I’ve seen thus far. But I’m probably not have to look anymore cuz I’m bored.

So how do you pronounce “PuRXium?” Is it “pee yuu R X yum?” RX as in prescription? Or “purkzium?” Or soft X as in Portuguese, “Pursheeum?”
@Kyeh I say …
Purx -> Purr, Perk, perky, perks -> Perks!
Ium -> Eeee-um
Perls-Eeee-um

@cfg83 Here’s the image you requested for “Comic book hero cat with cape is yelling Purrr-Xium! as hero cat vanquishes malignant AI Roomba.”
@mediocrebot I case my rest.
@cfg83 It just keeps reminding me of that weird cult called NXIVM - remember that?
@Kyeh I was thinking pure-zee-um
@cfg83 @mediocrebot That image is… remarkably good. I’m impressed and deeply depressed. Dimpressed, I guess.
@macphoenix @mediocrebot
One for the Websters!
@Kyeh
Nope, your post is the first I heard of it. Of course, back then I was into cuneiform, so it wasn’t on my radar.
@cfg83 @mediocrebot Very odd that the 'bot assigned a version number to the Roomba that’s “the sign of the beast!!”

@agnesnutter You may have already looked this up on Amazon. But, just in case; filter part # CAP-500FPK.

RE: the writeup
Isn’t 88 some nazi shit?
@Catholicizer yes, 88 stands for heil hitler in nazi terms because H is the 8th letter. But just like swastikas, people use it for other things, the nazis don’t own it.
@Catholicizer ‘Gotta keep the 88 straight…’ number of keys on a piano.
@Catholicizer @mehwilldelete And 8 is a lucky number in China.
I wish there was some definite info on how quiet these are. I’d like something more quiet then the one I have now for my bedroom.
@IAMIS Consumer reports said they are relatively noisy overall but especially at high speed.
@IAMIS Yeah, anything with a fan should be required to publish is decibel output range.
@bigmeh Darn. Amazon’s Alexa tried to tell me they are very quiet, but like I should believe her when she’s trying to sell me junk.
Thought it was the more chungus one, it’s just the widduw babby one.
My parrots would clog this with dust in 5 minutes.

@cfg83 @mediocrebot They seem so well organized.
So if we extrapolate, are we talking about up to 120,000 square feet 2x every 7-10 business days?
@pheaton
As little as 5 days in my calculations …
@cfg83 business days is the key here. Gotta give the thing a break after business hours to avoid overtime costs.
@pheaton Oh yeah, we wouldn’t want to pay the Cuisinart overtime, that would defeat the porpoise.
The Cuisinart website says they’re discontinued. That usually just means you can get a good deal. This is the cheapest I’ve seen thus far. But I’m probably not have to look anymore cuz I’m bored.
Technically this could be for cooking – it is a little worse than a window vent (and not even close to being a shaft vent).
@pakopako Hehe, shaft.
Nice Twilight Zone reference. I suddenly feel bad for the remaining 1% of dust.
2500 hours is 104 days. So filter life is roughly 3.5 months
