Understanding CADR
What is CADR?
CADR stands for "Clean Air Delivery Rate," which indicates the volume of filtered air delivered by an air purifier. CADR ratings show the effectiveness of the air purifer is at capturing fine particles. Higher CADR rates indicate improved performance in all room sizes.
Note: This air cleaner is suggested for use in a single, closed room up to 335 square feet. Portable air cleaners will be much more effective in rooms when all the doors and windows are closed.
