Vitesy NATEDE SMART Air Purifier (Natede Smart)

How does plant-powered purification work compared to traditional HEPA filters?

The system uses phyto-purification technology that enhances the natural air-cleaning abilities of plants through nano-materials. Unlike HEPA filters that trap particles, this biological process actually breaks down pollutants at the molecular level. Plants naturally absorb CO2 and release oxygen, but this system amplifies their ability to process VOCs, bacteria and other harmful substances. The pollutants are eliminated rather than collected, which means no filter waste and no reduction in efficiency over time.

What air quality metrics does the monitoring system track?

The integrated sensors continuously monitor five key parameters: PM2.5 fine particulate matter, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), CO2 equivalent levels, temperature and humidity. These measurements are displayed in real-time through the mobile app with historical data tracking. PM2.5 particles are particularly important as they can penetrate deep into lungs, whilst VOC monitoring helps detect chemical pollutants from cleaning products, furniture and building materials.

Do I need to replace any filters or components over time?

No filter replacements are required with this system. Traditional air purifiers need regular filter changes that cost £20-50 annually, but the plant-based purification process eliminates pollutants completely rather than collecting them. The only maintenance required is caring for the plant itself with occasional watering and ensuring adequate light. This saves money long-term and reduces environmental waste from disposable filter cartridges.

How effective is the system at removing bacteria and viruses?

Laboratory testing confirms 99% removal efficiency for bacteria, microbes, moulds, VOCs and viruses. The combination of enhanced plant biology and nano-materials creates multiple purification mechanisms that target different types of pathogens. Unlike UV systems that only work when air passes directly through the light, or filters that can harbour bacteria growth, the biological process continuously eliminates harmful microorganisms throughout the room.

What room size is this purifier suitable for?

The compact design makes it ideal for personal spaces, offices, bedrooms and small living areas up to approximately 15-20 square metres. The 26cm x 25cm footprint fits easily on desks, nightstands or shelves whilst the 5kg weight provides stability. For larger rooms, multiple units can be used together, with each unit creating a localised zone of purified air around your workspace or sleeping area.

How do I set up and control the smart features?

Setup involves downloading the mobile app, connecting to your WiFi network and pairing with the device via Bluetooth initially. The app provides real-time air quality readings, historical data charts and remote control of all functions. You can set automatic purification schedules, receive air quality alerts and track performance over time. The corded electric power source means no battery charging is required.

What type of plant should I use with this system?

The system is designed to work with various houseplants that have natural air-purifying properties. Plants like pothos, snake plants, peace lilies and spider plants are particularly effective. The nano-material technology enhances whatever plant you choose, amplifying its natural ability to process airborne pollutants. The plant serves as the biological component whilst the technology provides the monitoring and enhancement mechanisms.

Is this system energy efficient compared to traditional air purifiers?

Yes, the plant-based approach requires significantly less energy than traditional motorised air purifiers with fans and multiple filter stages. The corded electric power consumption is minimal as the system doesn't need powerful motors to force air through dense filter media. The biological purification process works continuously without the energy-intensive air circulation required by conventional purifiers, making it more environmentally sustainable.
