Austin Air Purifier HealthMate Plus, HM-400 +
The Austin Air Purifier HealthMate Plus (Superblend) units are effective for asthma and allergy sufferers but they also attack the problem of Multiple Chemical Sensitivity or MCS. To absorb a broad range of volatile organic chemicals, the engineers at Austin added potassium iodide (KI) to the mix of activated carbon-zeolite. This is in addition to the HEPA filter and standard low-cost pre-filter. The Plus model even absorbs chemically reactive gases like formaldehyde and ammonia, which is especially helpful when you have a new home or new furniture, upholstery, or carpeting.
With a high efficiency fan rated at 400 cubic feet per minute (CFM) the HealthMate Plus (Superblend) HEPA units have the capability to clear the chemicals, pollen, odor, and particulates from a large room. The manufacturer rates the air purifiers for rooms as large as 1500 square feet.

Austin Air Purifier HealthMate Plus Review
I was diagnosed with multiple chemical sensitivity about a year ago and since then have tried a number of HEPA units that I bought locally at Lowe's and Sears. Each claimed to absorb chemicals. I banished perfumes and heavily scented cleaners from my home and ran the units nonstop but was still having difficulty. Fortunately, in a chat room for people suffering from MCS I found that the higher quality Austin Air air purifiers are often not available in stores so I surfed the web and landed on your site at airpurifiers.com. It was easy to use and I became so hopeful when I read about the Austin Air HealthMate Plus. I ordered it immediately and was shocked when it arrived in two days. It has been the answer to a prayer. I don't know if it was formaldehyde or something else that was bothering me but whatever it was the Austin Air HealthMate Plus air purifier is eliminating it and I feel MUCH better! Thank you, thank you, thank you!
