The first filter worked great, and I am confident this one will too. My only complaint is that this unit consists primarily of activated carbon in a cardboard box. There's a tiny amount of alumina based potassium permanganate mixed in. The high cost simply isn't justified by the components of this filter. I have for a long time used activated charcoal pellets in my home-made ventilation filter. Several pounds of the pellets can be purchased at a pet supply store or here on Amazon for less than ten dollars. The pellets are the same ones that are in this V5 filter, and unlike the IQ Air's HEPA particulate filter, the charcoal works even when a lot of air bypasses the filter.

See Products Related To IQAir V5-Cell Gas & Odor Filter: IQAir Making a HealthPro series air purifier that removes low-level gas and odors in addition to allergens meant designing a unique filter that compliments the PreMax pre-filter and HyperHEPA filter. IQAir engineers accomplished that by combining two types of media-one that adsorbs odors and gases and another that changes the pollutant to an oxidized form. They called it the V5-Cell. The 'V' refers to the five V-shaped filters that make up the V5-Cell. It's these V-shaped filters that hold over 5 pounds of carbon mixed with alumina based potassium permanganate in such a manner that air flow is not decreased more than 20 cubic feet per minute when passing simultaneously through them. As a result, the filtration of the HealthPro Plus, which comes standard with the V5-Cell, and the HealthPro, which has space for the V5-Cell as an optional upgrade, removes more than 200 pollutant gases and odors from your home down to 0.003 microns with a guaranteed minimum efficiency of over 99.5%. The outcome is air as clean as it smells. beware of charcoal dust Be careful when unwrapping the V5 cell filter as there is a lot of loose charcoal dust. Otherwise - everything ok.
