How to choose
Compare maker coverage figures
Coverage is the figure that separates these picks: the maker lists 2,180 sq ft for the DBFIT, 968 sq ft for the Honeywell, 915 sq ft for the GermGuardian and 908 sq ft for the Aircillin. Measure your room first, then match it against the figure the maker gives for the unit you are considering. A figure from one maker does not transfer to another unit, so compare the stated figures side by side.
Filter stages and sensors
The GermGuardian uses a HEPA filter with a carbon filter and a UV-C light. The DBFIT uses a 3-stage filter with a washable nylon pre-filter. The Aircillin uses a 3-stage filter with 2 H13 True HEPA filters. Choose the filter setup that matches the features you want.
Noise, timers and upkeep
Rated noise differs: the DBFIT is rated at 15 dB, the Aircillin at 25 dB, the Honeywell at 45 dB and the GermGuardian at 60 dB. Timers differ too: the DBFIT has a timer from 1 to 12 hours, the Aircillin from 1 to 8 hours, and the GermGuardian has an auto-off timer. Check the filter reminder setup of the unit you choose before you buy, so the upkeep fits your routine.
