We Put 5 Air Filters To The Test – Here’s The Air Purifier That Came Out On Top

It seems like there’s always something in our air these days, which is probably why air purifiers have become so popular. With so many on the market, though, it can be hard to distinguish which is worth investing in. And while we’ve previously put several devices to the test, we were interested in learning more about the filters themselves. After all, an air purifier is basically just a filter and a fan, so it seems like the filters are pretty important. We tested the Molekule Air Pro Filter, Levoit Core 300 Filter, Blueair Blue Pure 411 Filter, GermGuardian FLT5000 Filter, and Honeywell HEPA Air Purifier Filter Value Kit – and were blown away by the technology in Molekule’s Air Pro filter. Here’s why we recommend it over the competition…

Tri-Power Filtration

Molekule’s Air Pro Filter features a unique Tri-Power filtration system that combines True HEPA, Carbon, and proprietary PECO (Photo Electrochemical Oxidation) technology. The True HEPA layer captures larger particulate matter like dust, pollen, and pet dander, while the Carbon layer protects against VOCs and odors. The PECO technology uses UV light to activate a chemical solution on the filter, which neutralizes and converts harmful organic particles into water vapor. This last piece is what truly sets Molekule apart. 

PECO Technology

While traditional filters like the Levoit Core 300 capture particles, Molekule’s PECO technology actually destroys them. This ensures that your air isn’t just filtered – it’s purified at the molecular level. No other filters have this technology – it’s proprietary to Molekule, and the reason why Molekule’s Air Pro and Air Mini+ devices only work with Molekule filters.

Sturdy Construction

Beyond its superior technology, Molekule’s filter is just sturdier than the other options on the market. The others we tried were flimsy at best, making it hard for us to believe they were strong enough to catch and trap dust and pollen and dander. Molekule’s filter has a noticeably heftier construction, which offers an added layer of peace of mind.

Simple Subscription

And lastly, we love the set-and-forget nature of a Molekule filter subscription. Molekule will auto-deliver you new filters every six months and give you a generous 20% off, too! Other replacement filters spent months out of stock (Blueair), aren’t available as a subscription (GermGuard), or are confusing to install (Honeywell). Molekule makes things simple: a superior device that works with one straightforward filter that it delivers to your door every six months. After struggling with several different filters, we can confidently say that’s a breath of fresh air!
