A Holmes air cleaner may be the best option that you have when you are looking for an air cleaner to suit all of your needs.

  The Holmes HAP223 takes advantage of the great HEPA design which can help you clear more particles from your air than any other sort of filter.

This is why the Holmes air cleaner in the compact design will help you bring a better air quality to your home in an easily-transportable design.

Pros of the Holmes HAP223 Air Purifier

• This air cleaner model can be easily moved from location to location, helping you have a better air quality wherever you need it.
• Both a HEPA filter and a carbon pre-filter will work on bringing your atmosphere to the best possible rate of cleanliness.

Cons of the Holmes HAP223 Air Purifier

• Is a rather noisy unit, potentially causing a great deal of distraction in your home.
• Replacement filters can be hard to purchase on the Internet, as they are often on back order.

What Does Holmes Air Cleaner HAP223 Offer?

• Technology Used In the Holmes Air Purifier


This Holmes compact room air cleaner will use the standard rate of HEPA filtration to help you purify your environment. HEPA filtration is a high-functioning rate of purification that many different models of air purifier will all use.

It is the only type of filter which has consistently been given the highest possible ratings in laboratory tests.

The HEPA filter in your Holems HAP223 air purifier model will capture at least 99.7% of all particles in the air which are 0.3 microns or larger.

This is a very high rate of purification, considering that most other models will only capture particles which are 0.5 microns at best. With this extremely high level of cleaning, you can rest assured that your purifier is working to the highest possible quality.

Everything from pollen to dust, pet dander and cigarette smoke will all be captured by this type of filter. The worst allergens will all combine to give you a home environment which is typically 5 times more polluted than the outside air.

If you use HEPA filtration, however, you will use the best technology available to remove that threat from your air.

Another huge influence on poor air quality is the presence of odor. The Holmes Compact air purifier will work on removing this as well. A carbon pre-filter is in place within the unit. The carbon presence will work on breaking down the organic compounds in the air which cause those odors before it absorbs them.

In addition to this odor control, the pre-filter will help to capture the largest particles in the air before they reach the HEPA filter, allowing your main filter to work at the highest possible efficiency.

• Area Covered
This is a very small unit, built as a compact design. As a result, it is not to be used in anything but a small room. It will have no effective reach to a room of a larger size, giving only enough air changes to a room with a low amount of square footage.
• Maintenance Required
  When you run the Holmes HAP 223 unit, you will naturally need to replace the filters to keep the machine running effectively. The carbon pre-filters will need to be replaced around every 3 months, while the HEPA filter should be able to last at least 6 months.

If you do not replace these filters often, they will quit working and could potentially even jam the machine with the build up of dirt they have collected.

More than just changing the filters, though, you should take the time to wipe down the surface of the unit. The machine will naturally begin to collect dust and this can block the grates of the unit.

This will turn the air flow into a very poor quality and will effectively make the machine into a worthless piece of equipment which is only taking up space.

• Energy Level and Noise
This unit has a rather loud fan unit and even when running on a low feature, the fan will be rather noticeable. This is not a unit to run when you are hoping to have the lowest possible amount of noise present in your home.

The amount of energy which is consumed by the purifier will depend on the speed that you are running it at, although the higher speeds will use more power.

• Price and Warranty
This Holmes air cleaner is traditionally found for around $50 per unit. It will feature a 3 year limited warranty, keeping the unit running efficiently for that amount of time. You won't need to worry about this portable unit breaking on you before it's time has come.

This Holmes air cleaner is a great model when you want to help the air quality in a particular room in your home. It is not built for large areas and if you try to use it in one, you could potentially damage the machine from working it too hard.

Considering that it uses HEPA and carbon filters, however, you will see that it is doing a tremendous job and should easily start to improve the quality of your breathing.
