Strong and Powerful
The main advantage of choosing the Blueair Classic 480i over the 405 is the integrated air quality sensors. These sensors track changes in air quality from the surrounding environment and display the relevant data on the unit’s display. Additionally, through the Blueair Friend app, it’s possible to receive a direct data feed to your preferred smart device.
You can also get a live reading of the air quality in the room, and providing you and the device are connected to Wi-Fi, you can then set the machine to operate at a chosen speed setting. This feature can be coupled with the timer function, which allows the unit can turn off after completing a certain amount of purification cycles and raising the quality of the air back to your desired level. One more advanced feature of the Blueair Classic 480i is it will monitor and report back information on the quality of the air outside your home, allowing you to set your unit to activate at times where pollutants peak above a certain level.
Strong and Powerful
Being structurally composed of galvanized steel, the Blueair 480i is built well enough to last through its 5-year warranty and beyond. The powerful yet efficient 480i draws through and cleans all the air in a room 5 times an hour, which when coupled with its HEPASilent filters will provide you with 99.97% filtration efficiency against all allergens, pollen, dust, smoke, traffic pollution, pet odours and airborne mould spores.
Smart Integration
The Blueair 480i now features Wi-Fi integration allowing you to set and adjust the operating speed and check the status/health of your filter when you are not at home. However, should you not wish to integrate the Blueair 480i into your home Wi-Fi network then you can still use the digital touch controls on the front of the device in the traditional way or through Bluetooth connection with a compatible smart device.
Efficient Filtering
The HEPASilent filters typically last for 6 months, although this can vary depending on the quality of the air that is being filtered. If you live in an area where there are particularly high pollution levels then filters may need replacing more regularly. However, the Blueair 480i comes with a handy indicator to tell you exactly when the filter needs changing, which will also help you gauge how long a filter cycle will last in your setting. With its larger size, the 480i is designed for maximum performance whilst maintaining a high level of energy and filtering efficiency, with the unit only consuming 15 to 90 watts of power during use.
Whisper Quiet Operation
The Classic 480i has also been awarded the ‘Quiet Mark’ for electrical domestic products in the UK. It is impressively quiet in operation when at its lowest setting with an output level of 32 dB. However, even on the highest setting, the noise level is only 52 dB, which is comparable to light rainfall on a window. This means that the Blueair 480i can be left to operate through the night without disturbing you as you sleep.
App Compatibility
You can control your Blueair Classic 480i through your phone using Blueair's app. Simply download the app, connect your Blueair Classic 480i and that's it. using the app you can control the fan speed, what operation setting it is on, see the air quality throughout the day and even the filter life.
