Amaircare Roomaid Filters

The Standard Annual Kit uses acti-carbon inner blankets designed for basic odor and particulate reduction. The Standard Plus Annual Kit replaces those blankets with a VOC Blend Carbon Cannister, which is specifically engineered to filter out volatile organic compounds and chemical pollutants.

The foam prefilter should be changed annually. If you use the Standard Kit, the acti-carbon inner blankets require replacement every six months. For the Standard Plus Kit, the VOC carbon cannister is designed to last for one full year.

No, the HEPA filter is sold separately from the annual maintenance kits. Because it has a much longer lifespan, it only needs to be replaced every 3 to 5 years, or sooner if it appears visibly darkened.

You should replace the HEPA filter every 3 to 5 years as a standard maintenance schedule. However, you should inspect it periodically and replace it sooner if you notice the filter media has become noticeably dark or discolored.

Both kits will help maintain air quality, but your primary focus should be ensuring your HEPA filter is clean, as that is the component responsible for capturing hair, dust, and common allergens. If you also struggle with household odors from pets, the Standard Kit's acti-carbon blankets are generally sufficient.
