Pre Filter
It may not seem like a very important filter in the system, but a Pre Filter is actually invaluable
to the efficiency of the Mammoth Air xC. The Pre Filter catches the majority of large particles
that linger in the air indoors. As the air is circulated through the air purifier, the Pre Filter traps
these larger particles. The Pre Filter is easy to remove and should be washed frequently.
Without the Pre Filter, the next filter in line, the HEPA filter, can become clogged with larger
particles floating in the air, requiring more frequent filter replacement. This is especially true
if you have a large family with lots of animals and kids that produce dander, hair, and other
large particles.
It is absolutely necessary to keep an eye on the Pre Filter to determine if it is filing up with
particles. If the Pre Filter is not changed out regularly, the effectiveness of the rest of the
Mammoth Air 1000 may be compromised.
High-Efficiency HEPA Filter
HEPA stands for High Efficiency Particulate Arresting filters, which basically explains exactly
what they do. HEPA filters are effective at capturing dust, mold, pollens, allergens and other
solid particles as small as 3 micron. Through a very fine paper-like filter, the pollutants in the
air pass through the HEPA filter and are trapped. At this point, any bacteria and particles die
because the HEPA filters are dry and sterile, preventing any future growth.
The Mammoth Air xC HEPA Filter is part of the Mammoth IceTech
TM
3-in-1 filter.
