The GermGuardian AC4900 is a 22-inch tower air purifier for medium-sized rooms. Its True HEPA Pure filter captures 99.97% of smoke, dust, pollen, and pet dander as small as 0.1 microns, which helps reduce allergy and asthma triggers. This is an initial efficiency value, measured on air passing through the filter media.
An activated carbon filter targets common household odors from pets, smoke, and cooking. An optional UV-C light works to reduce airborne allergens, bacteria, germs, mold spores, and VOCs. The UV-C claims were tested with Staphylococcus Albus, Escherichia Coli, Aspergillus Niger, and Phi-X174.
The purifier has 3 fan speeds. The lowest speed is a quiet mode for sleeping. A UV-C control and a filter change indicator are built in.
