If you’ve never used an air filter these are great. th-cam.com/users/postUgkx_dppjvjF8BYEmPSDTcgCUdRsgWYLXNHN I ended up with three after starting out with one. The noise level depends on the 1-3 settings with how hard you want the machine to work. You can also upgrade the filters and get one better for pet hair and smells which is a must have in my home. I noticed the air seemed lighter and easier to breathe when running the machine for the first time. Works great every time. Highly recommended!
The instructions specifically say not to pick it up by the blade, the way he says 'you can easily pick it up at the top of the machine'. You're supposed to pick it up at the base, by both hands, and only after the machine has cooled.
Every six months or so, I remove my filters, covering the inside side of the filter with a plastic bag while I vacuum the outside clean of dust. This helps keep the airflow as good as possible to make the filter last as long as possible, and the bag stops it pulling dust in the other side. Hope that helps you
yeh, since apparently you can't wash the filters themselves, thats a good idea to clean/vacuum the filter to make it last longer. buying a filter replacement every 6 months or even every year is annoying, but it's a requirement i guess... knowing me, i'd rather clean the filter and re-use it again and again :)
I do think vacuuming off the filter every few months will help prolong filter life. However, Dyson's HEPA glass filters trap lots of dust permanently in the pleats, so they still need to be replaced as needed. They will permanently clog eventually, which will greatly reduce airflow.
Unfortunately the only problem with your cleaning method is that the charcoal filter absorbs contaminants from the air all the time and loses its effectiveness of within a year's time.
@@kudlalive It doesn't require an air conditioned room, but because it's always filtering the air, it's designed for closed environments. You can use it with the windows open, but it'll be filtering outside air, which is redundant. It's great for air conditioned rooms, and during cold seasons as a filtered heater!
I just got one today but I noticed the air flow is not all the way around..just on the vertical sides and nothing is coming out of the U at the top or the bottom. Is that normal??
loved my hp01! I had it for over 4 years and had zero issues with it. It went through some physical damage (don't ask me why 😂😂) so I just upgraded to the hp06, looking forward to it.
@@jameslinmd I bought the dark grey and blue version, through Best Buy, and it has already in 3 days helped me and my cat, both of us have allergies and asthma, to not sneeze so much. It is wonderful. We need to all write to ask Dyson to be environmentally friendly like with the vacuum and make a washing filter.
Defeats the purpose to use a cheap filter just vacuum it every couple months. No need to be replaced it every 12 months you vacuum it every few months that’s what I do, they are expensive, but they honestly are great fans.
After this filter in the video, I went back to genuine (they’re much better), and as you said, I vacuum it off every season. It’s a great fan, heater, and air purifier! Mine is still going strong.
I have one of the first and It's still going. I use the Dyson Hot + Cool to help with the temperature is a rather large room and it does the trick. Also, friends had a toddler and we needed a heater/fan that's toddler safe. The only complaint is that the heater has warped and discolored the inside of the unit, but it's not that noticeable and doesn't seem to effect the operation of the unit.
If you are talking about the AP01 or AP02, the warping is the result of a recalled issue. Go to www.dysonrecall.com to replace it. Dyson was kind enough to give me the HP01 for free since the normal replacement wasn’t in stock.
@@morganlobby Thank you. Some time ago I tried talking with the Dyson support team and got nowhere. "Your heater isn’t affected by this recall." It's just a cosmetic issue that only "I" seem to notice, doesn't effect the machine's performance, and anyway you look at it, all of this stuff is tomorrow's junk, mine just cost more than most folks.
@@amanda86661 a $20 electric heater will put out just as much heat. Electricity is way more expensive than natural gas so if you have to a natural gas heater already turn up the thermostat instead of wasting your money on electricity.
Great articulate review! Have had mine for bout two years and zero issues! LOVVVVVVE IT AND even where a/c has been a necessity yet have not had to install as never expected it but this magnificent machine has done such a great job! Never issues with Dyson. WISH HE MADE EVERYTHING, ESPECIALLY PRINTERS. May be more expensive than the rest but will last for life as has my vacuum still going, the very first model going on bout 20 years!! I would like to know, though as want to get a second one of these purifiers what the difference/improvements may be with newer models???? i can find no information on this. ALSO about the filters where best to buy and if they are anywhere near as effective as the original. i am writing from a country where the appliance is $800 to start so the filters would be probably coupla hundred, so this info would be valuable.
Thanks for the comment! The newer models have better filters, and more "quality-of-life" features. For example, they can oscillate in almost a complete circle, have app connectivity, and give real-time air filtration feedback. They may move more air too. Although they look great, I'm still very happy with my first gen HP01!
Nice review. But around 11:50, I'm surprised you mentioned that they're not washable as a negative. There are no good air purifiers with washable filters, you cannot wash all of the particles and odors out of the filter. Also, the activated carbon loses its effectiveness at removing odors and VOCs over time. That's not something that can be washed out. What is disappointing to me however is the lack of a prefilter. Many machines will have a prefilter that can be at least vacuumed off, my air cleaner catches lots of things like pet hair on the prefilter that simply isn't worth wasting on the HEPA filter. I think this is a good fit for someone who wants a heater/fan that happens to clean the air as well along with having the cachet of being made by Dyson, however as an air purifier there are better options for this price point.
I mention my disappointment in the lack of washable filters, because all Dyson vacuums have washable filters, and I love that feature. Back in the day, I made and fitted washable filters for the basic box unit air purifiers I was using, and I really liked it. I get why they don't though.
refurbished on ebay usually has them quite cheap and also its been rebuilt by a reputable company so they work, I've bought 2 vacuums that way and one of these and all work really well
@@VacTech1 Walmart has this refurbished for $179.99 but somebody on one of the selling sites “Offer up” is selling one down in Manhattan for $50 he said it needs a new filter but he has the remote “no smoking and no pets” I may drive down there tomorrow to pick it up.
Vac Tech, you didn't show how to reset the Dyson fan. Had to go to another site to reset the fan.........By the way, very good instructions on how to use the Dyson.....Thanks.
I’ve got a black one that I’ve had for 3 years and I’ve been washing the filter for 3 years now. Usually every 6 months 🤣. A little dawn dish soap and a spray nozzle on the sink does the trick.
Read this straight from the Dyson website: "Requires device to run app, 2.4GHz or 5GHz Wi-Fi connection or mobile data, and Bluetooth 4.0 support." Not sure where you're getting and it's only 2.4 gigahertz.....
Well I just ordered one at Best Buy. I am not sure if I’ll get a filter in the package because they’re out of stock and gotta order those. I hope it helps my mom because she can’t get a good nights sleep.
Mine has never worked unless it's over ~88*F. Anything under that and it won't heat/rotate. Probably cause my room is directly facing the sun- with closed blinds.
Thank you so much. I've been procrastinating changing the filter 'cause I thought it's too complicated. Thanks much! Great help. BTW, what's the brand of the other filter?
@@Po7ent buy one of them! Dyson is gold. I did not have it yet during the wildfires in Washington. The air quality was unsafe, so the stores all were closed and everyone was told to seal doors and windows and stay inside with a purifier on. People were rigging things, and at the end my very loud purifier had black filter. Instead of paying $30 for new filters I got this very Dyson one during Black Friday before they ran out (I had wanted the new WiFi model, but they did sell out). The biggest difference is immediately I noticed very little sound! If you speak on the phone or Zoom you can leave it going. Level 1 wide mode is so gentle, so soft, you barely feel any breeze, which is perfect if you did not want any papers to blow away. Yet, it has a wonderful quick air cleaning and my sinuses started opening up not long after it began, and my cat’s dripping nose also got better in a day. (This may save me vet bills.) I think it looks much nicer in person than in photos. One thing to note is if you use a heater/purifier you should also use elsewhere in your room a humidifier as the air gets very dry. Dyson sells one version of fan plus humidifier, and a lot of other variations at different price points, and different color combinations.
Thanks! Although it's like a fan, do you think it helps to refresh the room or at least the cool feeling is more effective than a simply fan? BR from Barcelona ^^
Dyson fans use electricity, anything that uses electricity creates friction which creates heat, fans heat the air, it is impossible for a fan to cool the air.
Just wondering if anyone has had to use this for second hand smoke? We live in an apartment and the people downstairs smoke and it comes up through the floors. We have three sliding doors we can't open because the smoke comes in even stronger. A friend recommended this as she used it during bushfire season and it worked really well for her
jentothewren I’m no expert on this specific air purifier, but air purifiers with carbon filters are known to cut down on volatile organic compounds. Cigarette smoke is a volatile organic compound. I’m actually researching air purifiers because I need to keep my air clean for my bird! You need to get a purifier that can handle the amount of space in your apartment, though.
I changed the filter and it still shows the F and the white dashes to change the filter. I also wiped down the inside and outside of unit too. What should I do?
I really like this product. With one exception..I cant get the replacement filter and when speaking to online support, they have no idea when the filter will be back in stock! So Im stuck just staring at a $300.00 product!
The newer models of these heaters have a bunch of extra features, including app support, filtration analytics and auto adjust, bigger oscillation range, different airflow modes, and much better filters. They've made a ton of improvements on them over the years.
Okay I live in Az where it gets pretty hot. One day I bought a $40 fan and put it next to my Dyson .... that fan out performed the dyson in cooling and pushing the air. What do you do to get substantially cool air out of your Dyson (tricks on placement, etc)?
I have mine in a room with a window AC. The dyson is a few feet away from the AC, but in the air path of the AC, and It pushes the air toward my sitting area. Works well in my setup. There's a lot of fans out there that will move more air than the dysons, but the great thing about dysons is that they're also air purifiers and heaters (depending on the model). Right now they kind-of have a monopoly on their feature-set.
1:40 wrong, is just 10% of the air is filtered the rest comes from the surroundings and is pushed forward from the 10% that comes out with a different pressure
i noticed that the temperature can actually go all the way down to 33 degrees. If you set it around 66 degrees is that like making it use a cooling function?
@@zaraepena it works nearly as good. It's an inferior filter, but it still does a great job trapping dust. The genuine Dyson filters are superior, but these days they're 4X+ the price of the generics.
What would be the best way to get it to heat your room? Turning the temperature to 99 doesn't seem to do the best. It has another feature with the 1 - 10. Does that make it heat more? Or what is this feature for?
I set the temperature (for instance 72 degrees), and then the 1-10 option controls the fan, so speed 10 will heat room much faster than a lower speed. I hope this helps!
Thank you for your reply. I was about to return it because sometimes it oscillates and sometimes not and I couldn’t find any instruction in the manual.
How much will this unit cool a room? My living room sits above the garage and is generally 3-5 degrees warmer than the rest of the house and more humid.
Used in tandem with an air conditioner, it will do a great job cooling. Otherwise it works like a typical fan (that has the added bonus of being an air purifier).
Does this help with eliminating dust in a room. I find myself spending hours and hours dusting as I have poor air circulation due to my house being crammed from limited space and to many things blocking some poorly placed air vents in parts of my house.
Just a thought how can all the air it projects out the top be filtered, when they advertise that a lot of the air that it pushes round the room comes through the middle of the hoop and gets pulled along with the rest of the air. Surely thats not filtered at all and would take quite a while to be filtered if its been thrown across the room.
@@VacTech1 I'm just thinking that could be pushing fur or something round the room and if someone is allergic or something it's not really doing the job. While other fans don't push air around that hasnt been through the filter. Not idea if it's really an issue just a thought
Yes it would. If you're smoking indoors around it though, the filter life will be greatly shortened, as smoke and tar will clog the filter faster than normal.
@@VacTech1 If you order directly from Dyson and let them know you're a Dyson product owner they will give you a big discount on the filters. Just an FYI

To reset the filter life indicator, turn it on, and then hold down the power button for several seconds. That will reset it

Does the cheaper filter has the carbon or not?
no or at least it doesnt have carbon granules like tpo4 or others
Mine did not, the carbon layer does work. Dyson's genuine filters are the best option, but be prepared to pay for them.
great video good detail, the difference between this one and one and the taller Dyson that looks the same is what? more air output? thanks
The newer models of these heaters have a bunch of extra features, including app support, filtration analytics and auto adjust, bigger oscillation range, different airflow modes, and much better filters. They've made a ton of improvements on them over the years.
the cost to run these without solar is high on standard electricity. I'd like to figure out how to install a solar panel to power just thus device??
Lol good luck
The pitty is that this one has no sleep button on the remote control. The others must be a lot of quiter in the night
Okay I live in Az where it gets pretty hot. One day I bought a $40 fan and put it next to my Dyson .... that fan out performed the dyson in cooling and pushing the air. What do you do to get substantially cool air out of your Dyson (tricks on placement, etc)?
I have mine in a room with a window AC. The dyson is a few feet away from the AC, but in the air path of the AC, and It pushes the air toward my sitting area. Works well in my setup.
There's a lot of fans out there that will move more air than the dysons, but the great thing about dysons is that they're also air purifiers and heaters (depending on the model). Right now they kind-of have a monopoly on their feature-set.
Very informative. Great Video.
Thanks! I appreciate it.
I love mine!
Glad to hear it! Mine has been great. Use it daily during the winter.
I like your videos thank you :)@@VacTech1
@@lillyfox2537 Thank you so much! My next video will go live in the next day or two. A new Dyson review! Stay tuned Lilly!
You can still tilt forward or backward on the Dyson newer Purifier machine's.
Good to know! I didn't think you could.
1:40 wrong, is just 10% of the air is filtered the rest comes from the surroundings and is pushed forward from the 10% that comes out with a different pressure
Yeah its pulling in the air around it, along with the projected filtered air. I misspoke haha.
It's not recommended to use cheap knock-off filters in these purifiers.
i noticed that the temperature can actually go all the way down to 33 degrees. If you set it around 66 degrees is that like making it use a cooling function?
Any temperature that isn't a heater, is simply a fan. It will filter and recirculate the air in the room, whatever temperature it is.
This fan is not an air conditioner. There is no Freon involved cooling imbedded into the fan.
How do you reset it ? It still showing needs replacement
He forgot to mention that the base is tiltable. You can tilt it upward or downward.
3:52
Main problem is the lack of app for smartphone …
OMG, when you take out the filter, I can see the dust floating in the air...
BTW, do you have the link for the filters replacements?
Good eye! Removing the dusty filter released a lot of dust. I got the replacement filter on ebay.
@@VacTech1 would u say the non brand filter worked just as good? Thanks
@@zaraepena it works nearly as good. It's an inferior filter, but it still does a great job trapping dust. The genuine Dyson filters are superior, but these days they're 4X+ the price of the generics.
@@VacTech1 awesome thanks
Wow wish they were $200. The sale price is over $350 for Black Friday in 2020.
Good review. Where did you get your filter?
I got it on ebay
Dyson stress in the manual that you shouldn't carry it by the loop and only pick it up by the base. Maybe they are just being cautious.
Genuine Dyson Filter vs. Filter from eBay, how long did the ebay filter last before replacing it?
I plan to vacuum it off every few months (to get the loose dust off of it), and so far with seasonal cleaning, I expect it to last a year.
Could I use 4 of these to heat a 2 bedroom house with an open kitchen? I would love to have an army of these just running, heating the room in winter.
An army certainly would, but I wouldn't use this single unit to heat more than 1 large room, or 2 smaller connected rooms. Just my opinion.
It can heat any rooms with enough time, but a multi room home will need 2 or more. contact Dyson to figure out how many you need.
How could you afford the power bill 😱😱
What would be the best way to get it to heat your room? Turning the temperature to 99 doesn't seem to do the best. It has another feature with the 1 - 10. Does that make it heat more? Or what is this feature for?
I set the temperature (for instance 72 degrees), and then the 1-10 option controls the fan, so speed 10 will heat room much faster than a lower speed. I hope this helps!
@@VacTech1 thank you so much for your info and help. Happy holidays my friend
Have a questions I have the dyson ,where do I get the filer n how much r they, Thanks
How can I just use the hepa filter only?
I have the 4 generation HP04
where did you get your from- under 200 is a great price
Does it oscillate below 75 degree on hot air? My unit only oscillates above 75 degrees. I wondered if this is a defective unit?
When the heater is in stand by (set temp is below room temp), it won't oscillate. Is that what you're referring to?
This was the comment I needed!!! Glad to know it’s not defective.
Thank you for your reply. I was about to return it because sometimes it oscillates and sometimes not and I couldn’t find any instruction in the manual.
Awesome review!!!!
Thanks for watching!
How much will this unit cool a room? My living room sits above the garage and is generally 3-5 degrees warmer than the rest of the house and more humid.
Used in tandem with an air conditioner, it will do a great job cooling. Otherwise it works like a typical fan (that has the added bonus of being an air purifier).
@@VacTech1 got it, thank you!
Does this help with eliminating dust in a room. I find myself spending hours and hours dusting as I have poor air circulation due to my house being crammed from limited space and to many things blocking some poorly placed air vents in parts of my house.
Yes it sure does, but you're still gonna need to occasionally dust.
@@VacTech1 thank you!
Mine working fine in cool option but when I turn the heat option, my fan starts showing the H2 error code... need some help
I would contact Dyson direct. I haven't had any issues with mine, so I'm not sure about that issue.
Is it noisy as the heater?
That's a good question! It's actually quieter as a heater, as the fan doesn't move as much air, as it does in "fan" mode. Thanks for watching!
Just a thought how can all the air it projects out the top be filtered, when they advertise that a lot of the air that it pushes round the room comes through the middle of the hoop and gets pulled along with the rest of the air. Surely thats not filtered at all and would take quite a while to be filtered if its been thrown across the room.
All the air pulled into the bottom of the fan is filtered. Surrounding air is not.
@@VacTech1 I'm just thinking that could be pushing fur or something round the room and if someone is allergic or something it's not really doing the job. While other fans don't push air around that hasnt been through the filter. Not idea if it's really an issue just a thought
The manual says not to lift it by the blade
Whoops! The hoop is VERY lightweight plastic.
How big of the room it can cover?
So, this is just a purifying fan, not a replacement AC unit?
Correct. It's a portable heater or a portable fan, and it's always an air purifier. It's not an air conditioner.
@@VacTech1 thanks, was hopeful lol, maybe I'll get lucky and dyson will make an air conditioner also.
@@endlessdreamz7404 air conditioning is pretty hard to achieve. You have to transfer the pulled heat somewhere.
Do this dyson have an humidity indicator like the HP07 does?
@@electricelvis it does not. This is a very basic model for a Dyson fan/heater.
@@VacTech1 thx
Does it remove the smoke odor from the room? 🙏
Yes it would. If you're smoking indoors around it though, the filter life will be greatly shortened, as smoke and tar will clog the filter faster than normal.
@@VacTech1 oh ok great, how about cigarette odors, thanks
@@good7415 Yes it will help with that. It won't pull cigarette smells out of carpeting or the walls, but any airborne smoke it will filter.
@@VacTech1 thank you 🙏👍
Hi mate! Planning to buy this.as allergic season coming...how many sq meters can it clean???!!!! Nowhere find any statement or info.
Thx in advance!!!
Hello! I think it could handle a large household room or two well, but I'd contact Dyson for proper info.
Hi. How's the bootleg filter holding up? I've heard bad things about filters that are not oem for use with Dyson air purifiers. Thanks
So far it's ok. It doesn't have the layer of carbon, and will likely need to be replaced more often, but I haven't had any issues with it.
@@VacTech1 If you order directly from Dyson and let them know you're a Dyson product owner they will give you a big discount on the filters. Just an FYI
Where did you buy the “generic” replacement filter that cost only 1/3 of Dyson’s price?
Ebay.
They still sell these?? Let me know i wanna purchase for under $200..
just bought one for 400 on sale
How’s the generic filter doing ? Do you have to replace it often or less than a year ?
Doing just fine! I vacuum it off occasionally, and find it should be replaced yearly.
@@VacTech1 thanks ! Do you have the link to Amazon ? I found a purple one but it only has like 10 reviews.
Is it weird, I found get the vibe of John Mayers voice in your voice??? You sound so much like John!! Hahahaha sorry for the weird comment!!!
