Coverage for 300 sq ft. Comes with a 5-YEAR Limited Warranty on the Motor/Fan and 1 YEAR on All Other Parts Except Filters.
It is easily portable to a study room, bedroom, etc., in your home. Ideal for small areas such as an office, a hotel room, or even the car. Focus is on annoying allergens that can hinder breathing and optimal health, such as pollen, pet dander, mold, pet hair, dust and more.
Amaircare Roomaid HEPA Air Purifier for Bedrooms, Offices and Travel
The Amaircare Roomaid Portable HEPA Air Purifier fits true HEPA filtration into an all-steel unit small enough for a nightstand, desk or shelf. It covers up to 300 sq ft, which makes it ideal for a bedroom, study room, small office or any area where space is limited, and it’s light enough to carry from room to room. Pack it for a hotel stay, or add the optional car adapter and bring cleaner air along on the drive.
Its focus is the everyday allergens that make breathing harder: pollen, pet dander, pet hair, mold spores, dust and more.
Three Stages of Filtration
Stage 1, washable foam wrap-around prefilter: slides over the cartridge like a sock and catches dust, hair and larger particles first, which helps the HEPA last longer. Since it’s washable, you can use it over and over. A spare comes with the unit, so one is ready while the other dries.
Stage 2, sealed True HEPA cartridge: 99.97% efficient at 0.3 microns, with 17 sq ft of HEPA media. It pulls dust, pollen, bacteria, pet dander, attached viruses, cigarette smoke particles, mold and mildew out of the air. The cartridge is sealed at the top and bottom, so air can’t slip around the filter, and what it captures stays inside instead of escaping back into the room.
Stage 3, carbon inner blanket: a carbon blanket inside the HEPA cartridge adsorbs light odors and VOCs given off by everyday things like cleaners, paints, carpets and furniture.
Want More Help With Odors and VOCs?
The Roomaid HEPA can be upgraded whenever your needs change. Trade the carbon blanket for the granulated carbon VOC canister in the Roomaid Annual VOC Filter Kit, and the same unit becomes our Roomaid VOC, with far more carbon for chemicals, gases and odors. You can switch back to the blanket any time with the standard kit.
Built Not to Off-Gas
The Roomaid is made of 24-gauge steel with a baked powder finish, so it won’t emit toxins like some plastic models, and it holds up to years of moving around. Inside, a 12-volt DC motor built for continuous operation runs on about 5 watts, so leaving it on day and night costs very little. Amaircare run-tests the motor for 50,000 hours. Air comes in through the upper filter section and returns to the room all the way around the base, and rubber feet keep the unit from sliding. It’s designed and made in Canada.

Take It on the Road
Because the Roomaid runs on a 12-volt DC motor, the optional car adapter lets it plug right into your vehicle’s lighter port. A seat belt clip under the unit holds it securely on the seat. It’s a simple way to keep pollen and dust down on a commute or a long road trip, and it goes into the hotel room with you at the end of the day.
Sizing Your Roomaid
Amaircare rates the Roomaid for up to 300 sq ft at 1 air change per hour with 8 ft ceilings. If you have allergies, asthma or other sensitivities, more air changes help: Amaircare’s manual suggests about 75 to 150 sq ft for 2 to 4 air changes an hour. For a larger bedroom or an open living area, look at the Amaircare 3000 on the Comparison tab, or run two Roomaids.
Mold Spores
The sealed HEPA traps mold spores well. If musty odors are part of the problem, the Roomaid VOC adds a carbon canister to adsorb them. Either way, fixing the moisture source comes first. Our basement mold guide explains more.
Getting Started
The first time you use it, vacuum and dust the room, then run the Roomaid on high for several hours to catch the dust that gets stirred up. After that, choose a speed and let it run continuously. The wall adapter may feel warm, which is normal. Please don’t sit on the unit or rest anything heavy on it.
Browse Amaircare’s portable, whole-house and commercial HEPA air filtration systems, plus replacement filters and maintenance schedules, in the Amaircare Product Catalog (PDF).
Both Roomaid models are the same small, all-steel unit with the same motor, 2-speed switch and snap-on HEPA cartridge. The difference is the third filter stage: a carbon blanket in the Roomaid HEPA, or a granulated carbon VOC canister in the Roomaid VOC. Pick the one that matches what you want the unit to do. Since it’s the same unit, you can change the setup later by switching filter kits. Click a model name for its full details.

Which One Fits?
Amaircare Roomaid HEPA: choose it when allergens and dust are the main concern in a bedroom, study room or small office.
Amaircare Roomaid VOC: choose it when you also want stronger protection against VOCs, gases and odors, such as off-gassing from new furniture, fumes in the car or odors in a hotel room.

Most clients buy one annual kit a year, chosen for what they want the unit to do. Your Roomaid HEPA uses the Annual Standard Filter Kit and the HEPA cartridge, highlighted in yellow below. Want more help with odors and VOCs? Use the Annual VOC Filter Kit instead, and your unit becomes a Roomaid VOC. You can switch kits any time.
1 washable foam wrap-around prefilter, 1 VOC canister (granulated carbon in a steel mesh canister, 145 g of carbon) and 1 O-ring gasket. Also called the Roomaid Plus Annual Kit.
Foam prefilter: check about every 3 months, wash or vacuum as needed, replace once a year
VOC canister: once a year, or sooner if odors come back
The HEPA darkens as it fills, and the manual’s color guide shows when it’s time for a new one. Sign up for our free Filter Reminder Program, and we’ll remind you when new filters are due.

Great little filter
I like this small filter, very quiet and fits well under my desk. I haven't found another machine this size that is as effective against VOCs. No buzzing or strange fan noises, this is calming and quiet.

Pipe smoker
I purchased the AMAIRCARE portable with the car installation option for my Jeep. The unit stays secure on the rear seat and patches to the cabin cigarette lighter port. The inside air quality is remarkably improved. I open the windows slightly when having a smoke. Wiping clean the windows is necessary after a while. This is as expected. All in all a good investment.
