Boneco Air Purifier P400 (White/Black)

How often should I replace the filters in the P400?

Filters typically need replacing every 9-12 months depending on usage and air quality conditions. The unit includes a smart reminder system that alerts you when replacement is due. Heavy use in polluted environments may require more frequent changes whilst light use in clean areas could extend filter life. Monitor the digital display for replacement notifications.

What's the difference between the Allergy, Baby and Smog filters?

Each filter targets specific pollutants. The included Allergy filter handles common allergens like pollen, dust mites and pet dander. Baby filters are designed for nurseries, focusing on ultrafine particles that could affect developing respiratory systems. Smog filters tackle smoke, urban pollution and stronger odours. Only one filter type can be used at a time.

How loud is the P400 during operation?

The P400 operates very quietly, especially on lower fan speeds. Speed 1 is virtually silent whilst speed 5 produces noticeable but not disruptive airflow sounds. Most users find speeds 2-3 perfect for nighttime use in bedrooms. The whisper-quiet operation comes from the efficient DC motor design that prioritises low noise levels.

Can I run the P400 continuously without issues?

Yes, the P400 is designed for 24/7 operation. The low power consumption DC motor runs efficiently without overheating concerns. Continuous operation actually improves air quality by maintaining consistent filtration. The 5-year warranty covers extended use and the filter reminder system ensures optimal performance throughout its lifespan.

What room size works best with this air purifier?

The P400 effectively covers rooms up to 600 square feet. This includes most bedrooms, living rooms and offices. Larger spaces may require longer to achieve full air circulation whilst smaller rooms benefit from faster air changes. The slim 42.67cm width means it fits easily in most spaces without dominating the room layout.

How do I use the essential oils feature safely?

Add 2-3 drops of essential oil to the designated fragrance tray located inside the unit. Avoid overfilling as this can damage internal components. Use only pure essential oils, not synthetic fragrances or water-based mixtures. Clean the tray regularly with a damp cloth to prevent oil buildup that could affect performance.

What maintenance does the P400 require besides filter changes?

Regular maintenance is minimal. Wipe the exterior with a damp cloth monthly and vacuum the air intake grilles to remove dust buildup. Clean the essential oils tray if used and check that vents remain unobstructed. The digital display and touch controls need occasional cleaning with a soft, dry cloth. No internal maintenance is required.

Does the P400 help with pet allergies and odours?

Yes, the HEPA filter captures pet dander particles whilst the activated carbon layer absorbs pet odours. The 99.79% particle retention rate includes common pet allergens. For homes with multiple pets, consider running on higher speeds initially then reducing to maintain air quality. The Allergy filter specifically targets pet-related particles effectively.
