Air purifier? - Part 2

[chaiscool]

I doubt so. The height is different I think. You can google and confirm.

The “older” filter dimension is ~ 293mm in height whereas 4 Lite filter (M17-FLP-GL) is 310mm in height. https://www.mi.com/global/product/xiaomi-smart-air-purifier-4-lite-filter/specs

Correct me if I’m wrong.

Does it even matter though? Like it won’t run is it? Thought as long can close can turn on the machine haha. A bit smaller seem ok right lol

Of course it matters, at least imo. You won’t be able to bring down the PM2.5 effectively. Overtime, you will also see dust accumulate inside the fan easily. If you don’t mind, then maybe is ok. Lol

Alternatively you may want to use something to stuff / cover the remaining gap due to the height difference. But as to whether will the AP runs? I don’t know. You want you can try. I don’t have 4Lite AP.

Haha imo more worried about not the ap not working with the wrong filter. Inside ap dusty can always clean, but if ap doesn’t start with wrong filter then the filter become useless.

So confusing when xiaomi makes different filter for different models

Ya. Have to buy different filters as spare if happened to have different models of AP at home. No longer interchangeable.

[alvinalf]

Thanks Goni for finally solving my problem. To be fair they took 3 working days to reply to my video.

Samsung Singapore (Commonwealth branch) checked my purifier, then they told me my motherboard is spoilt.
Samsung Korea and Goni global told me the reason why lights are blinking and not functioning.

Here is the solution:
The reason all the lights are just blinking is because the options is unset.

This problem can be solved by
1) Unplug the purifier,
2) Connect the plug,
3) press Menu button + Lock looking button for 3 seconds (it will make a "ting" sound),
4) Press menu button + power button for 3 seconds (it will make a "ting" sound),
Thats your option set.
5) Unplug your purifier and connect, it will work normally.

Hope it helps everyone

so many people buy AP because of the fake news that haze MAY be coming

if we all buy things based on things that MAY happen

then there are so many things to buy

like fire extinguisher?

Fear is a very successful emotion businesses use to employ because humans are so susceptible to it. We are more motivated to act if we feel we gonna lose something versus gaining something.

don't see what's wrong with having a fire extinguisher or fire blanket at home

How many AP is needed in a 990 sqft HDB? I got 1 xiaomi AP already, by right 1 should be able to cover whole house right? But thinking if I should get 1 more for the living room

 

[DriftKing]

1 on theory is enough but it will take very long for the air to be purified. If the air is not circulating well in the house, then it will take even longer. Its best to have one in each room.

What is the practice to use the air purifier? Because my kid has sensitive nose. Can I on both air purifiers and air conditioners at the same times?

Can on both at same time
Works well for us during haze

Thank you. But normally what is the common practice. On it when in the room or close the room, clean it then go inside the room.

Close windows n door of the room as AP works best in an enclosed space
We on the AP to clean the room before going in to sleep

Can anyone recommend a good solid AP which doesn't require me to buy and change filters?

No such thing as no need to change filter for any AP. Only pre-filter are washable at best. You can continue to use the filter until turn black, but don't expect it to function as well as a well maintained filter.

U need to understand why is there a need to change filter first.

The reason is due to efficiency level of the filter will drop as the usage is alot
