Product Description
Unlike purifiers that trap particles in dense filters using loud motors, the IFD filter traps particles without interrupting the air flow. Quiet, efficient performance with no expensive filters to replace. IFD is an Intense Field Dielectric process that revolutionizes indoor air cleaning to provide you and your family with quiet and permanent air filtration. Since the filter never needs to be replaced, there are no expensive filters to buy, saving you hundreds of dollars in possible filter replacement costs. If you want to freshen and clean the room air, or suffer from seasonal allergies, then an IFD Air Purifier is right for you. Like HEPA filters, IFD uses ionization and filtration methods to quietly and effectively help reduce airborne particles such as mold spores, dust, pollen, cat dander and tobacco smoke from the air that passes through it, with a maximum air purification percentage of 99.97%. The time for cleaner air at home is now. The HFD130 makes the most sense for an average size room (of about 200 square feet). Low Maintenance - Just water rinse filter 4 times per year, No expensive UV bulbs to replace, Energy efficient - uses half the power of comparable HEPA products For Medium-Large Rooms 15 feet x 15 feet (figure 150 to 225 square feet) Energy Star Certified Dimensions - Height 19.37 x Width 15.39 x Depth 14.21 inches Weight - 12.9 pounds

To rid a room of unhealthy or irritating airborne particles such as dust, smoke, and mold, an air purifier can be indispensable. Manufacturer of a wide assortment of air treatment products, Honeywell combines HEPA and IFD (intense field dielectric) filtration methods in this germicidal electronic tower for effective cleansing. Energy-Star certified, the 60-watt purifier removes up to 99.97 percent of a room's air impurities for better breathing. The air purifier best suits rooms 200 square feet in size. The user selects from the three operation speeds for purification or takes advantage of the 12-hour programmable timer. Air circulates silently through the machine up to four times an hour without any disruption to the room's natural air flow. The purifier traps impurities via filtration and ionization, releasing clean air into the room. While the IFD filter never need be replaced, the purifier illuminates an indicator light when cleaning is necessary. Users clean the filter by rinsing half a dozen times a year or they might choose to vacuum the IFD filter to clear debris. As with all electric appliances, read all information prior to using the purifier. The air purifier measures 19.37 by 15.39 by 14.21 inches and weighs 12.9 pounds. --Jessica Reuling

 Home Depot & HFD-130 October 24, 2008

I bought this unit at Home Depot after looking at many reviews.
I wanted to buy locally so I could returd it if the unit did not work for my purposes.
When I went to open the unit at home I noticed triple taping on the box.
Upon opening the box, I noticed the packaging didn't seem to be from the factory.
I inspected everything carefully. Seemed OK.
I plugged the unit in after reading the manual. I immediately noticed the unit indicated a dirty filter. The filter looked OK so I tried to reset the indicator to show "clean". No Go. I called the Honeywell #. They finally advised me to return the unit.
I did return it within 2 days to Home Depot.
I did let the unit run for 2 days but still could not reset the indicator.
Some observations: Fairly quiet even on Med. speed. Lots of ozone smell everytime I came close to the bedroom.
I asked to see a manager at the Knoxville Home Depot (9361 Kingston Pike).
I told him I suspected I bought a defective returned unit that had simply been repackaged. He told me there was a possibility it had been returned by someone and that it was just placed back for sale. "There is no way we can test to see if the unit is OK". He open up a new box in front of me. There was sigificant difference in packaging. He offered to knock off 10% for my time (close to 2 hours) and gas (52 miles).
I told him to take a hike.

I bought this air purifier because we were getting this musty moldy smell from our basement. We were also having breathing issues at night with always having stuffy noses. When I first got it I set it on high and kept it out in the hallway for about 3 days because there was a weird smell at first but that does go away. I usually run it on high out in the hallway during the day then I move it into the bedroom and set it on low at night. It's a bit noisy on high but not too bad and on the low setting it doesn't bother our sleep at all. As for our breathing issues we no longer have any as for when we wake up in the morning now we no longer have a stuffy nose and we're no longer waking up in the middle of the night to blow our noses. The musty moldy smell has also diminished greatly as well. I would highly recommend this Air Purifier.

I was pleasantly surprised to find that this air purifier actually works well. I had always been skeptical as to the efficiency of air purifiers, but after using this one for a month or so, I am sure that they work as advertised...or at least this one does, which is surprising considering the relatively low price. I used to often wake up in the morning with a headache or bad nasal congestion, but since running this air purifier, I have been waking up with no headache and a clear nose. I am also satisfied with the low noise level of the purifier. Even when on the highest setting it makes less noise than my year old air conditioner (which doesn't make that much noise). I cannot really imagine this air purifier being any better, not that I have any other air purifiers to compare it to, but this one does everything it says it will, everything I wanted it to do.
Works well, but needed to "outgas" before using May 22, 2008

I bought this to use at work, in an old and very dusty 14 story building. It has worked well and reduced asthma and allergy symptoms there for me. I've cleaned lots of nasty dust out of the filter three times now since I've had it. You do have to let the filter dry overnight if you wash it with water, but I just wash it at the end of the day, set it on paper towels to dry, and put it back in the next morning. I love that I don't have to shell out 125 dollars for a full set of replacement filters like I did for my round HEPA filter.
I run it on medium, and that is quiet enough not to disturb the people in the next cubes. They did object to having it on high, saying that was too loud. It creates static in my phone if I get too close to it; so it's in the part of my cube away from my chair.
It has helped tremendously with getting irritating particles out of the air at work, but I don't find it can filter out any solvents or VOCs like perfumes, cleaning sprays, etc. It only clears particles. But then the filters that do clear solvents and airbone chemicals cost more in the range of 1,000 dollars.
The only problem I had with it was the strong "black plastic" smell when I first bought it. I ran it for about five weeks in an unused area of my house before that chemical-ish smell went away. After that smell wore off it was great. Just be aware that if you are chemically sensitive, along with sensitive to particles, that you might have to let it air out for a few weeks before using it in your living or working space.
