EXCELLENT
We like that this model is a very efficient unit and environmentally friendly as well. We don't like that it doesn't have a very good warranty.
Some spaces require more TLC than others, especially when it comes to odor and germ reduction. This is the principal reason why ozone-generating air purifiers like the GreenTech GT3000 exist. Ozone generators are the gold standard when it comes to deodorizing spaces and they’re great at disinfecting the air, but ozone faces a lot of controversies in terms of safety. If you’re curious about how you can possibly benefit from the GreenTech GT3000, read our review below.
Pros
- Recommended for use in areas of up to 3000 square feet
- Effectively kills germs, viruses, and bacteria
- Affordable price
- Remote control offers a convenient operation
- Energy efficient operation
- Low-cost maintenance work
Cons
- Warranty is only 1 year long
- Unappealing design
- Produces ozone
Technical Specifications
This air purifier generates ions to a concentration of 1 million/cm³, while its ozone output is up to 360 mg/hr on Away Mode and 25-300 mg/hr on High Mode. According to GreenTech, using the device according to the instructions stated on the owner’s manual will ensure that the “safe threshold” of ozone density (0.05 ppm) will not be exceeded unless you use the Away mode. The coverage area for this device is 250 sq. ft. minimum while the maximum is 3,000 sq. ft. The minimum area is actually relevant as far as this air purifier is concerned because users are not supposed to run it inside a smaller room to avoid ending up with an ozone concentration that is unsafe. Aside from ozone generation and ionization, the GT3000 also offers photocatalytic oxidation and electrostatic filtration to sanitize the air and rid it of particle pollutants and odors.

Performance
The GT3000 can get the job done in indoor spaces up to 3,000 square feet, so it can definitely act as a whole-house air purifier if your home doesn’t exceed the specified area. Thanks to the various technologies used by this model, it’s able to neutralize mold, mildew, and bacteria like e. coli, listeria, staph, salmonella, candida, giardia, legionella, and cryptosporidium even when they’re embedded in carpets, furniture, walls, ceilings, floors, clothing, closets, beds, and other places that are not exposed to normal air flow.
Features
The GT3000 comes with a convenient remote control and an easy-to-use control panel. Operation is also quite easy-the only things you actually need to do are to plug it in, turn it on, set the square footage, and then turn the fan to the desired speed. Aside from having an adjustable fan speed, you can pick from three modes-Normal, High, and Away-to customize the ozone output of the machine. The Away Mode specifically has a programmable auto-shutoff timer that you can use to buy yourself enough time to let the room’s ozone levels normalize before you return. Lastly, the fact that it’s a whisper-quiet air purifier is beneficial as well.
Design
This air purifier is 9 inches wide, 12 inches high, and 12 inches deep. It weighs 12.1 lbs and is available in black. According to GreenTech, its side panels are specially designed to replicate high-tech carbon fiber, a material that is being used in aerospace and sporting equipment. It has that distinctive, compact look that’s common to ozone generating air purifiers, and its aesthetics give off an industrial vibe that might not sit well with modern interiors.
Warranty
This air purifier comes with a 1-year warranty. For further information, you may contact GreenTech’s Customer Service department, which is accessible via email and phone call.
Final Thoughts
The advanced technologies that go into the manufacturing of the GT 3000 air purifier make it one of the most reliable models on the market in terms of odor and germ reduction, and it should also be able to do a good job at reducing particle pollutants due to its ionizer and electrostatic filter. Of course, there’s the issue of ozone safety, so you have to make sure that you’re using your device properly. But if you don’t mind resorting to such a heavy-duty option for the sake of having an effective air cleaning device for large spaces, then the GT3000 is certainly worth considering.

Is the filter that the unit comes with washable?
Yes, the filter of the GT 3000 model is both washable and reusable. Therefore, you will be able to use it for a long time, not needing to be replaced too often.
Do you think it’s a good idea to place this air purifier in my 5-yeard old’s room?
As a matter of fact, the GT 3000 is one of the most silent air purifiers on the market. Placing it in the room of your small child is completely safe, the unit not producing a loud noise when it operates.
I’m delighted with the way this unit works. Since I have it, I feel a lot better and my house doesn’t harbor unpleasant odors anymore.
I needed an air purifier that could cover a wide area to use it in the basement. The 3000 is indeed capable of purifying the air in large spaces perfectly, and to my surprise, although it operates for about 8 hours every day, it didn’t actually add a lot to my expenses when the bills came.
What can you tell me about the controls?
It actually features an SNT LCD display where you can not only view important stats but that allows you to make the preferred selections so that you get to fully customize its operation.
