Levoit LV-H132

Technical Specifications

The main highlight of the Levoit LV-H132’s feature lineup is its True HEPA filter, which can eliminate even small, microscopic-sized impurities. In addition, it employs carbon filtration to remove unwanted odors and smoke. By passing the air through three different filtration stages (including a pre-filter) this Levoit model can yield safe, purified air for the people and animals in your home. Levoit recommends that this air purifier should be used only inside rooms that are smaller than 129 sq. ft.

Since it boasts a 28-watt power rating, you won’t have to worry about its energy consumption too much. This is an energy-efficient air purifier by all means, which isn’t really surprising considering its compact size. It has a CADR value of 40 CFM, which means it delivers clean air at a rate of 40 cubic centimeters per minute. This is a decent specification for a model that Levoit suggests is best used in rooms smaller than 129 sq. ft., but it’s clearly not ideal for heavy-duty needs. Furthermore, it operates within 50 dB, which is an acceptable noise rating but might be difficult for those highly sensitive to noise.

Performance

The Levoit H-132 air purifier takes down pollutants like pollen, dust mites, mold spores, pet dander, smoke, and odors by passing indoor air through three separate stages of filtration: a pre-filter, a True HEPA filter, and an activated carbon filter. The pre-filter tackles medium and large particles and traps them even before they reach the HEPA and carbon filters. Next, the True HEPA filter removes up to 99.97% of airborne particles down to 0.3 microns in size. Lastly, the activated carbon filter improves air quality by trapping smoke and odor molecules. Since this model doesn’t have an ionizer or a UV lamp, it’s not as effective at killing bacteria and viruses.

Features

The intuitive touch controls featured on the Levoit LV-H132 makes it easy to use even for people who struggle around tech devices. With the simple touch of a button, users will be able to turn on the device, control the night light, and switch between fan speeds. Although it doesn’t have the all-too-useful timer function, it’s still an energy efficient model because it consumes only 28W when operating.

As you may have already noticed, this air purifier comes with a nightlight mode. This is a bonus feature for people who find soft blue lighting inside their bedrooms relaxing. This function also comes in handy if you have kids who feel safer with a nightlight on. If you prefer your bedroom to be completely dark, you can turn off the nightlight mode as you see fit.

Another perk of this model is the replacement indicator, which eliminates guesswork when it comes to filter changes by notifying you if the filters need to be replaced.

Design

The Levoit LV-H132’s contemporary design and white finish make it a good aesthetic fit for most homes. The unit is compact and measures only 7.5 inches by 7.5 inches by 12.6 inches. Also, it weighs a mere 6.5 pounds, which makes it lightweight enough to carry if you want to take it to another room. Overall, it’s thoughtfully designed to enhance air quality through a well-executed simple-yet-modern design.
