We recommend the P3000 Plus as an excellent, powerful alternative, which can be found here.
The Airfree P3000 filterless air purifier is maintenance-free and totally silent. Its patented Thermodynamic TSS™ Technology gradually destroys mold, allergens, dust mites, bacteria, viruses, pollen, pet dander and other organic pollutants, and it even helps reduce ozone. It is ideal for mold-contaminated areas, as well as for asthma and allergy sufferers.
Airfree's exclusive technology is completely silent and does not require any filters or maintenance. Just plug it in and let it do the job. Airfree's award-winning design fits nicely with your home decor.
Covers up to 650 sq. ft. Excellent for smaller areas like nurseries, bathrooms, playrooms, pantries and more.
The Airfree P3000 Onix is a compact, filterless air purifier for people who want cleaner air without noise, filters or upkeep. Instead of trapping contaminants in a filter, it uses Airfree's patented Thermodynamic Sterilizing System (TSS™) to destroy airborne microorganisms with heat. It covers rooms up to 650 sq. ft. and runs completely silent, which makes it a favorite for bedrooms, nurseries, home offices and other quiet spaces.
Room air rises into the P3000 by natural convection, with no fan. Inside, it passes through the tiny ducts of a heated ceramic core that reaches nearly 400°F. According to Airfree, up to 99.9% of the microorganisms that pass through the core are destroyed, including mold spores, bacteria, viruses, pollen, and pet and dust mite allergens. The air is cooled before it returns to the room, so the unit adds very little heat. Airfree says two units in one room give off about as much heat as one adult.
Mold is where the P3000 really shines. Because the TSS™ core is always on, it continuously destroys airborne mold spores, which helps keep new mold colonies from forming on walls, carpets, furniture, food and leather. Airfree suggests it for basements, laundry rooms, mud rooms, attics, garages and pantries, along with any room where mold is a concern. If mold is actively growing, it's also important to find and fix the moisture source.
The Airfree works gradually. Airfree states that it typically takes one to two weeks to bring airborne contamination down to a much lower level, and that level holds as long as the unit stays on. Every room is different, so results depend on the space and how much contamination is coming in.
With no fan or motor, the P3000 makes no sound at all. There are no filters, UV bulbs or replacement parts to buy. Airfree says its self-cleaning ceramic core is designed to last 20 years without losing efficiency. It also uses very little energy. Airfree compares its average monthly electricity cost to running one 50-watt light bulb, so it can run 24/7 without a noticeable jump in your electric bill.
The P3000 releases no ozone, no ions, no UV light and no chemicals. In fact, independent tests in Sweden found that Airfree reduces ozone by 26%. The P3000 is CARB certified and approved for sale in California.
At 10.4" tall, 8.4" in diameter and 3.5 lb, the onix-black P3000 is small enough to move from home to dorm or office. A soft, adjustable blue night light makes it a nice fit for children's rooms and nurseries, and it can be dimmed or turned off. Airfree units are made in Europe and sold in more than 60 countries, and Airfree reports a defect return rate of less than 1% in the first three years. The P3000 comes with a 2-year limited warranty.

Airfree\'s Thermodynamic Sterilizing System has been tested by universities and ISO laboratories around the world under regular operating conditions. Airfree publishes these independent tests on its website so you can review the results for yourself.
Airfree says that what\'s left of the destroyed microorganisms breaks down mostly into carbon dioxide and water, with only microscopic traces left behind.
The P3000 produces no ozone, ions or UV light. Independent tests in Swedish laboratories showed that Airfree actually reduces ozone by 26%. Ozone is a lung irritant, so this is an important difference from ozone generators and some ionizers.
There\'s nothing to change and nothing to throw away. Without filters, there\'s also no handling of dirty filters, which is a plus for people with allergies.
Because there\'s no fan, the P3000 is completely silent, which makes it ideal for bedrooms, nurseries and offices where even a quiet fan is too much.
The soft blue night light can be adjusted or turned off. It\'s decorative only and doesn\'t affect how the unit cleans the air.
With no fan or motor, the P3000 uses just 43–58 W. Airfree compares its average monthly electricity cost to running one 50-watt light bulb.
CADR (Clean Air Delivery Rate) measures how much filtered air a fan-driven unit delivers. Airfree doesn\'t filter or blow air; it destroys microorganisms, so its results are measured in microbiology labs instead. That\'s why you won\'t see a CADR rating on an Airfree.
Airfree began with a Portuguese businessman looking for a natural way to ease his son\'s allergies. His idea of using heat to destroy airborne allergens was tested in microbiology labs and grew into the Airfree line. Airfree products are made in Europe and sold in more than 60 countries.
Every Airfree air purifier uses the same patented TSS™ ceramic core, which destroys airborne mold spores, bacteria, viruses and allergens with heat instead of trapping them in a filter. The models differ mainly in room coverage, size and night light, and the two hybrid models add a fan and capsules for odors and particles. Click a model name to see its full details.

Most Airfree models have no fan at all, so they work in complete silence around the clock. The P3000 Plus and Elite are Airfree’s hybrid models. Each adds a fan and can use capsules when you want extra help with odors, smoke, chemicals or particles, then goes back to silent TSS™ operation when the fan is off. Both hybrids can be run from a remote control or smartphone app, and the Elite also works with voice assistants.

I can't say enough positive things about this product and my experience working with Barb!
Glad to hear we could help you.
I have only had this for a week or so, it do'es emit hot air which in Florida isn't good for me. I don't see how it can make a difference in a room with such a small airflow. Not really convinced it is all it says it is honestly.
Yes, it does emit a bit of heat. Feel free to see Airfree's site also with their testing for more information: www.airfree.com. Many of our clients enjoy Airfree for its silent technology and no maintenance. Thank you for your feedback. --Thank you, Barb
I've been using it in my basement instead of trying to reduce the mold down with the energy-hog dehumidifier. I have had the dehumidifier and the purifiers on for weeks and the mold seems to have subsided, so it seems to work!
These air purifiers are SILENT! I may get more for other rooms. I have two now :-)
Reduces produce from molding. I have had it plugged in for four years no problem. Not so good for dust and dander.
By this time last year, my allergies were SEVERE. Since I bought this, I still get a little tickle, but at least I can function like a normal person again. I would highly recommend this to any allergy sufferer.
It cannot be any better!!!!
I love how the item is portable and silent. I still use my air purifier with filters but this complements it well.
Excellent, silent unit. Great for college too.
I use it in my library in my home. It is excellent for mold and silent so I can enjoy my home again. No maintenance is a bonus.
I assist at a daycare facility and we purchased 3 of these units for the classroom. We were amazed at the difference they made just within a few days. Also, the kids we watch seemed to have fewer colds this year than in the past. The Airfree purifiers had to have helped some with that. We're impressed so far.
Makes a big difference in our infant's room in regards to the quality of the air. It's great for her room because it makes no noise and cleans the air in the room.
I love it! The air in my home seems so much crisper and cleaner when I walk in the door.
I've had the Onix 3000 for 4 months now and was diagnosed 4 months ago with Non Hodgkin's Lymphoma and I'm headed next week for my last chemo treatment...I believe the air purifier was one of the contributing factors in early healing treatment...My course of chemo treatments was 8 chemo sessions...My Dr. confirmed recently that I was cancer free and would only need 6 sessions...Again I believe one of the contributing factors was the Onix 3000...Thank you Airfree for inventing this great air purifier...I also have the Austin Healthmate Jr working in combination with my Onix 3000...By the way I need a air filter for my Austin Healthmate...It's time... Thank you again for all your help and suggestions... Patricia Patterson-Swanson...PS My husband has been diagnosed with COPD and this Austin has keep the air purified without him having a seizure in 2008, 2009...
