We always like easy maintenance! It has a filter change indicator to let you know when it is time to replace the filter cassette. The filter cassette conveniently contains all three filters and it comes in one per-packaged replacement cassette so filter replacement is just one step. Filters usually need to be replaced annually.
We were very pleased that it is Energy Star compliant. It is energy efficient while running in sleep mode and on low fan speeds.
It tested very good for particulate removal and gas, chemical and odor control.
We were impressed with how quiet it was on all speeds 1-4. Turbo, as expected, was not quiet.
Smart sensors automatically monitor air quality helping the unit work very efficiently.
We really like the light senor which automatically turns on sleep mode when the room is dark. Sleep mode is an energy efficient mode that is ultra-quiet and dims the control panel.
The remote control allows for very easy operation and works up to 20 ft. from the air purifier.
Minuses:
Not for serious chemical, gas or VOC removal. The Winix PlasmaWave 9000 true HEPA air purifier only has a minimal amount of granular carbon media included in the filter cassette. This minimal amount of carbon paired with the PlasmaWave technology will address common household odor issues such as those caused by cooking, cleaning or a family pet. However, in order to seriously address an air quality issue cause by a significant amount of chemicals, gases or strong odors you need a filter that has a large amount of carbon (18 to 26 lbs) with a deep bed (2 to 3 inches thick) which provides a longer dwell time for better adsorption of the gas, chemical, or odor.
Minimal warranty period: Winix only offers a 1 year limited warranty on the Winix PlasmaWave 9000 true HEPA air purifier. This is shorter than the average manufacturer’s warranty on a product of this quality which we would expect to be at least 3 years. Despite its 1 year limited warranty we feel you can be confident this air purifier will last much longer.
Summary:
Good construction and attractive design make this air purifier an excellent choice for any room in the house. The “little extras”, however, like ultra-quiet operation, and automatic light sensors make it a perfect addition to the bedroom.
