TERMS USED IN THIS GUIDE
CADR:
The "Clean Air Delivery Rate", or CADR, describes the air
Wall mounting
purifier's effectiveness based on the volume of clean air
produced per minute.
dB (A):
Decibels are units that measure sound intensity. For
example, 25 dB is commonly described as quiet as a
"whisper" or "library quiet".
HEPA-13:
HEPA, or high-efficiency particulate air, is a standard
to designate the efficiency of an air filter for removing
particulates. HEPA-13 filters provide medical-grade
particulate filtration removing 99.97% of particles over 0.2
microns in diameter. These include pollen, mold spores,
bacteria, viruses, and other fine particulates.
Pre-filter:
A pre-filter removes larger particles before the air is passed
through the HEPA-13 filter. Renew has two pre-filters: an
audio-grade textile outer pre-filter and a mesh inner pre-

filter. Both can be cleaned and help to extend the effective
life of the HEPA-13 filter.
Activated carbon:
Sometimes referred to as charcoal filters, these filters
use activated carbon pellets that absorb and trap gasses
and odors from the air. Among many other things, this
filter helps to address the odors that can come from pets,
cooking, and smoking.
