OHMYGOD I am so embarassed. My odor light went on after one full year of using the filter. I finally opened it up and discovered the pre filter was completely clogged! I am so happy I found your video. Thank you!
Great w/ details! I'm WAGING WAR against Seattle's TOXIC SMOKE EVENTS (FIRES) w/ TWO AirMega 200M. Just received 2nd one. Last year I was horrified to find that the Silveronyx Clean Air Purifier I'd bought the summer before to be ready for this was worthless - literally couldn't tell any difference. Took a month, but received m 1st AirMega - finally could sleep, IF it was next to my bed w/ the air column shooting into my face. One AirMega could not keep up w/ the smoke that poured into my old 650 sf apt (formerly charming apartment)! With TWO AirMegas...PLUS my attempt at sealing my windows & door w/ products bought online... HOPE this works! This video steps you through every detail of cleaning...clear, visual.
Glad to hear! Thanks for watching and sharing, Sally! Good luck on your war against fire smoke! My Airmega has been doing a good job cleaning our smokey air here in California as well. Hope all the fires subside soon and everyone stays safe!
The max2 replacement filters have more effective carbon media, it's a pound of pellets in a honeycomb sheet. This lasts just as long as HEPA, seems like it's the same cost. This filter came with my airmega.
Great video! Never even knew about that little side sensor, and I've had my filter for several years. Did I hear you say we should only run it for 8 hours a day? I leave mine on 24/7.
Are you in the States? I live in Canada. I would like to buy a Coway AP1512HH through Amazon but worry about having to mail it to the States for repairs. I also worry about having to buy the filters through Amazon and therefore having to pay for shipping. Any suggestions? Thanks.
Yes, I am. Is Winix 5500 available in Canada? That's another good air filter I'd recommend if it is, amzn.to/3ct9sqO. Thanks for watching and asking, happy happy! Stay safe.
I'm allergic to dust, so what's the point of having mine, my coway is old, red light after cleaning and replacing filter, I'm ready to toss it. But thanks for the video

Thanks for watching and letting me know, Bonnie! How do you like the Coway 200M?
@@Tech4Baba I love it. Though I discovered if the outside gets dusty it goes it goes to red zone instantly.

do you know if you can use the honeycomb carbon filters with this unit?
I haven't tried but assuming you can find the right side, it should work. Thanks for watching and asking, Joshua! Stay well.
Yep they are called max2 filters. I was pleased to see they came with my ap1512-hhs.

What’s your vacuum?
If my odor light is on does that mean I need to clean my purifier or that I need to replace the filter?
You definitely should clean it often.
I'm allergic to dust, so what's the point of having mine, my coway is old, red light after cleaning and replacing filter, I'm ready to toss it. But thanks for the video
how long i can keep it running every day ?
I keep mine on all day. Thanks for watching and asking, Sameer! Stay well.
It kind of ramps up if it's sensing air impurities. So it should quiet down on its own. Leave it on low
Hey man! Thanks for the informative video. Did you decide to try the cheaper filters? Any thoughts?
You're welcome, Ben! Yes, the cheaper filters work fine as well. Thanks for watching and asking! Stay safe.
How do you clean the black filter?
