How much floor space does the AC4880B clean?

It circulates a 153 sq. ft. room every 12.5 minutes, or a 743 sq. ft. room about once an hour. For allergy relief, treat it as a bedroom or office unit rather than a whole-floor solution.

Does the UV-C light run all the time?

The UV-C stage is optional, so you can turn it off and rely on the HEPA and carbon filters alone. The bulb is a separate replacement part (LB4000).

Which filters does it take?

It uses the FLT4825 HEPA Filter B and the FLT22CB4 carbon pre-filter. Specialty versions FLT4850PT, FLT4825VO and FLT4825SM also fit.

How does auto mode work?

The Intellisense sensor checks air quality 60 times per minute and raises fan speed when it detects poor air. It monitors continuously, so the unit can run unattended.

Is it quiet enough for a bedroom?

The lowest speed is an ultra-quiet mode intended for sleeping. Higher speeds move more air and are louder, as with any tower purifier.

Does it remove odors?

The activated carbon pre-filter is there to trap odors and household smells before air reaches the HEPA filter. It handles everyday odors, not heavy smoke or chemical fumes.

Our take on the GermGuardian Air Purifier with HEPA Filter, UV-C and Air Quality Sensor, AC4880B

The GermGuardian AC4880B is a 22-inch tower air purifier with a three-stage system: a HEPA Pure filter, an activated carbon pre-filter for odors, and an optional UV-C bulb. Its Intellisense sensor reads air quality 60 times a minute and raises fan speed automatically, and it runs in auto mode, three manual speeds, or an ultra-quiet low setting. It cleans a 153 sq. ft. room every 12.5 minutes and a 743 sq. ft. room about once an hour, which suits bedrooms and offices better than large open living areas. Against rivals it stands out for the built-in air quality sensor and UV-C stage at this size; the trade-off is that it only replaces filters with GermGuardian's own HEPA B and carbon parts.
