I just ordered 2 like this for my home so I appreciate your demo especially demonstrating using it with the smart home assistant via voice control. The tips for setup and use will definitely help get me setup quick and save time. Bravo!
Hi WebGirl,
I am glad you appreciated our video, I hope you find the Levoit Air Purifier as helpful as we do.
Kind regards and keep well

@@BrenTeckITSupport.. I'm sure I will be happy with Levoit. I'm also in technogy so the wifi mobile app to check air quality on demand and price point led me to buy Levoit. They had So many features for the price on their 'smart' models & I was impressed during my research. I also purchased a 200S model for my office. I should receive all of my purifier units in a few days. 🤞🏻
@@webgirlonline
Hi WebGirl
Yes, you are right the Levoit Smart Air Purifier is full of feathers and the price is good as well so you can not loos getting them. Let us know how you get on with yours.
All the best and keep well

Hi Tina,
Glad you got them, I got to say we are still loving our one works so well.
Thanks for your comments, kind regards and keep well
David
can this device be helpful for people with allergies? Does it kill allergens
Hi Jacek,
Yes, this will help with reducing allergens as the HEPA filter will trap airborne particles. It will not kill anything just trap things like pollen, pollution, dust etc we have found it to be great and would really recommend it.
I hope this helps
Kind regards and keep well
David
Very informative and thorough review. Thanks!
Hi Galaxy,
Thank you very much, I am glad you found it informative. :)

Apart from helping with the building dust/air. Has it helped your wife with her Allergy's/ health? I ask as I get bad sinus and itchy eyes etc. Also do you find it difficult to get the filters, here in the U.K. thank you for your time, kind regards Paul.
Hi Paul,
Yes, my wife does find that it helps with her allergies.
So far I have not had to replace the air filters I've just hoovered them out and we use them.
I can't see why there would be any problems getting them in the UK from Amazon amzn.to/2I1aa3l
Kind regards and keep well
David
Thanks for the review, can I ask does it have a child lock on the display to stop them from pushing buttons? Also a couple of years on has it been a worthwhile purchase or any better options now? Thanks :)
Hi Andy Mc, good question. The answer is No, there is no "Pet Lock" on this version. Don't ask me why Levoit call it "Pet lock" but that is what it is called on some of their other products. Shame as this should be a basic feature that could be added via the app I would have thought, if it was missed out during product development. I did not think it would be a necessary feature when we got it. When we had family over with there baby, he loved the beeps it made when he touched it. Yep it's a basic feature that is needed and sadly missing.
All the best Dave
@@BrenTeckITSupport thanks for the reply, it does sound silly ‘pet lock’ lol otherwise it looks like a great purifier! I’ve just ordered the levoit core 300s it includes a ‘pet lock’ :)
@@andymc4359 Hi Andy Mc, let us know how you get on with it. All the best Dave
@@BrenTeckITSupport Impressed so far, very quiet on first two settings and VeSync app is great to see air quality, does cool the room a bit on high, pet lock doing it’s job

Hello, what functions does the purifier support with IFTTT? Can it be turned on/off via IFTTT?
Hi Jbrepoyt,
That is a good question, I would say yes from what I have read at ifttt.com/vesyncIftttAirPurifier
However, I can not confirm this, as I do not have IFTTT Pro so I can not make more than 3 routeens. IFTTT sucks now because of this. I am starting to use HomeAsistand on raspberry pi for my automation.
I hope this helps and all the best for 2021

Hi! Great review! I bought one on Amazon and it said it can do MAX Mode Power: Cleans a room up to 900 sq.ft in 1 hour. Do you see this as true? I have an open concept home where living, dining and kitchen are in one room
essentially. Thanks!
Hi Nal,
I honestly don't know what the sq.ft of our house is, so all I can say is it really helps keeps odours, dust and now pet here down to a minimum in a 3-bed house. We have ours downstairs in the corridor between the kitchen leading to the living room and starts and it helps so much. On max, you can easily hear and feel the air move. I am thinking of getting a 2nd one for my server room as it will help move and clean the air just for my computer equipment.
Good luck with yours and let us know how you get on.
Kind regards
David
I just got mine, the fan would not turn on. I downloaded the app, it was testing the air but when I went to turn on the fan, nothing happens. Did I get a bad unit? Thank you.
Hi Mike,
If the fan was moving during the test it is probable working you just need to change the fan speed or set it to auto. Follow the steps in this part of the video ruclips.net/video/NUMWy9Oi1QA/видео.html Or you may need to simply press the on-off button on the unit "the first one on the left"
I hope this helps if not give Levoit support a try support@levoit.com or levoit.com/contact-us
Good lunch and keep well
David
@@BrenTeckITSupport I’ll try that. Thanks for the fast reply.
El mio llego hoy. Pronto dejare saber como va. Solo dire que el poco rato que llevo con el activado se siente el olor del cuarto diferente, bueno.
Glad you got one and hope it works well for you. Mine is working wonders, it is keeping the building work dust down to an absolute minimum. Hence my late reply. Did you get yours from my link in the video description as I cant see a click-through?
Do you think it’s worth getting the smart version for this filter with the wi fi addition? Thanks.
Hi Aleksander
I have used the WiFi function and found it to be more convenient, for the little extra I think it is worth getting. It relay depends on budget. As it's not essential to have WiFi but changing the settings in bed can be nice and looking at the filter life % is a bones.
Personally I am glad we went for this one with the WiFi it works so well. We are sill doing our Kitchen and it's keeping the dust down.
Hope this helps and keep well.
David
I own a PUR131 and I like it a lot, but (as i'm just discovering) replacement filters are very hard to find. Amazon UK is sold out the only ones I can find take about 4 weeks to ship from China. I'm kicking myself now for not going with a better-known European brand.
Hi Chris,
Thanks for the information I will have to keep it in mind when its time for us to order our replacement.
Mind you I will probably just clean ours, giving the filter a brush down, shake and a hover will give it a new lease of life.
Not as good as a new one I know but it will do.
Kind regards and keep well
David
@@BrenTeckITSupport Hi David -- in the end I got some shipped from the US. It's my fault really for not having a few spares in the cupboard ! I'll use the hoover trick until the new ones turn up, thanks. This is still a great little machine, I would thoroughly recommend it if anyone's still not sure.
@@chrisf1600 I was planning on getting the larger H133 model to cover several rooms but it's sold out, so now I'm wondering if it would be a good idea to get 2 of these ones instead...or if I should just wait and buy the 1 large one. I'd place 1 of these smart ones in my bedroom and 1 in the kitchen.
Hi Galexy,
Two would be best as when you close the door it will only work for the room it is in. If you have an upstairs, hallways or corridors air flow won't be great. One big one is fine for open plan space. In a big open plan two smaller ones at each end would work better than one big one at one end. It depends on space, layout and budget.
I hope this helps.
Kind regards and keep well.
David
Hi mate, any good at removing VOCs do you know? Had my room redecorated and repainted with some high VOC paint just looking at good air purifier options, thanks.
Hi Luke,
That is a good question. I did a quick bit of research for you.
The Levoit site says there air purifiers remove VOCs (www.levoit.com/airpurifiers). I never take marketing at face value so I dug a little deeper.
The HEPA filter will not take out VOCs but some sources say that an activated carbon filter will.
Some say; Activated carbon air purifiers and filters can remove any VOC concentration from the air in an enclosed space, such as your home, office, workplace, or an indoor public space. They work by chemically attracting organic contaminants to be absorbed by the carbon inside(foobot.io/guides/removal-of-volatile-organic-compounds-from-polluted-air.php#:~:text=Activated%20carbon%20air%20purifiers%20and,absorbed%20by%20the%20carbon%20inside.).
Others say; Air purifiers with plain activated carbon or granulated carbon are not as effective in removing VOCs.(www.healthychild.com/asthma-and-allergy-prevention-with-a-hepa-air-purifier/)
A bit of a mixed bag i am afraid. So from personal experience. When using a spray deodorant or perfumer the Levoit ramps up when on auto and removes the sell / taste the spray leaves behind in the air in about 1 minute.
In conclusion I would say it should certainly help, you may need to replace the activated carbon filter quick as a result of the chemical reactions inside but that is what is is for.
I hole this helps.
Kind regards
David
BrenTeck IT Support wow that was the most informative comment I have ever received, thank you very much :)
Does it work without using the smart feature? Can you just pug into the wall and use it?
Hi Kristen,
Yes, everything works with out the phone except the filter life percentage.
Fan speed including auto can be set via the touch display.
Kind regards thanks for watching and keep well.
David
I have a 8 bead room home will this be big enough for my 350 Square feet room?
Hi,
The Levoit LV-PUR131S is rated as 230m³/h. So a 350 square foot (106.6m) room with a 2 meters high ceiling will take about 1 hour to move all the air 3-meter ceiling will take about 2 hours. It will do it just taking longer to move all the air. It all depends on the hight of your ceiling as well as the floor space. I would have thought 1 would be ok as you would leave it in 24/7 you could always add a 2nd one later if you wanted more air cleaned at the same time having them at opposite ends of the room.
I hope this helps.
Sorry for the delay still working on our smart kitchen nearly done.
Kind regards and keep well.
David
is it possible to turn the wifi off? i am asking because of the radiation
Hi Johannes,
I can not see a way of turning off just the WiFi. I know there are people out there who are concerned about this but its safe. WiFi is a safe frequency and low powered so will not do you any harm. In fact they operate on a lower frequency then infrared and lower then visible light and much lower then ultraviolet which is were you can start getting skin damage from too much exposure and any levels that come from the sun.
I hope this puts your mind at ease and you can enjoy your devices in peace.
Kind regards and keep well

I have a 2 bedroom apartment in Brooklyn. The kitchen, hallways and
living room are open and somewhat in an alcove arrangement. I estimated
that this is a total of around 500 sq-ft. Can this unit handle that much? I know its rated about 360 sq-ft but read from many owners it can handle more.
Thanks!!!

Say, if you have two of these units, how do you control each of them seperately by phone app?
Hi Alex, I only have one to play with but I guess as you can give them different names you would do it that way and I would hope the different names would work with Google assistant as well.
David,
Thanks for a very useful review! One thing though, your affiliate link goes to the non-smart version - if I then click on the smart version to buy it, do you still get the bounty?
Cheers, Howard
Hi Haward,
Thank you so much for using my bounty link and letting me know it only takes you to the standard one. I have updated it now.
Yes, when you click on any of my links and then click through to other products in the same session I should get the bounty, but Amazon always looks for excuses not to pay out so I really do appreciate you pointing it out and clicking the link. It means so much to me when people do as it really does help me to do more videos as does clicking the like butting, comments and subscribing, don't forget the bell notification button.
Kind regard, keep well and good luck with your new Levoit air purifier.

Does the app or the screen of the air purifier show the pm2.5 levels btw like some other brands ? Nice review btw.
Hi Umar,
Glad you liked my review.
The app and display show air quality via colour, Blue = Verry Good, Green = Good, Yellow = Moderate and Red = Bad air quality which may take up to 1 minute to detect air quality. However nomination of parts per million (ppm). It would be nice to have a reference guide were Blue >= 0 AQI, Green >= 50 AQI, Yellow >= 100 AQI, Red >= 200 AQI and so on in the instructions and app. But sadly no they don't.
I found www3.epa.gov/airnow/aqi_brochure_02_14.pdf
I don't know if the colours are a matching scale.
An AQI of 100 for ozone corresponds to an ozone level of 0.075 parts per
million (averaged over 8 hours).
An AQI of 100 for carbon monoxide corresponds to a level of 9 parts per
million (averaged over 8 hours)
An AQI of 100 for sulfur dioxide corresponds to a level of 75 parts per billion (averaged over one hour).
The app has the filter life indicator showing the life of the filter in % whereas the display indicates check filter life icon telling you to look at the app. Probable time to replace the filter.
The instruction manual can be downloaded. static1.squarespace.com/static/5914b7ca46c3c432a410a716/t/5c622ae6e4966b85f1ddba7c/1549937391697/01.03_ML%28Online%29_HTHOHASA01EL_LV-PUR131S_Smart+True+HEPA+Air+Purifier-WEB.pdf

How do you find it a few months on?
Hi Robert,
We are finding it excellent very pleased we got it. We ordered it in September 2019 so 7 months ago now. We have 51% of the filter life remaining and with all the building work, plaster and brick dust this is amazing. Such a good buy, we still need to do the hovering and dusting but only normal amounts that we had to do before wh had it and before the building work was being done. But when before the building work started the house was a lot cleaner.
Hope you are well and this info helps.
David
I watch a lot of these reviews online and not 1 person has truly reviewed the effectiveness of the wifi Air Quality that is being reported on your phone in the app. Everywhere I look, the app reports Air Quality Good. Is it really monitoring the air quality?
Hi Jay
I would say it is monitoring the air quality as the touch panel and phone app do respond to its sensors have a look at ruclips.net/video/NUMWy9Oi1QA/видео.html time stamp 14:10 to 16:36 were I do review this function.
I hope you find this helpful.

To this day his bedroom is still in the red
Hi Andrew,
I need a little more information to give any specific advise.
What I can say is make sure windows and doors are closed as air born particulates such as dust and pollen can come in from anywhere.
Clean the room give it a full dust down and vacuum. Remember things like aerosols do seam to put it into the red so take that in mind as well.
Whilst I have been building the kitchen walking past mine set it to red as I was covered in plaster dust.
I am not saying that his room is dirty but dust gets in from everywhere and it is not meant to be a vacuum cleaner. Just a purifier, though I have been counting on ours to act at one over the last month lol
Hope this helps keep safe
David
It seems like you took a punch at the box cause you told your wife not to buy anymore gadgets to be review. Its ok to take your frustration out on the box once in awhile mate
Hi M,
Hahaha, Thanks for this comments it really made me LoL. So close to being true as well. The box arrived like that but my wife does love giving me jobs to do. I am so far behind with doing the reviews that some of the products are now 2 gen out of date so lots of work for very little gain.
All said and done we do use the air purifier all the time and it has been excellent when doing the construction of our new smart kitchen.
Take care and keep well.

I have a 2 bedroom apartment in Brooklyn. The kitchen, hallways and
living room are open and somewhat in an alcove arrangement. I estimated
that this is a total of around 500 sq-ft. Can this unit handle that much? I know its rated about 360 sq-ft but read from many owners it can handle more.
Thanks!!!
Hi Raul, it's effective range is 48 m²/516 ft². We have our's down stairs and it's keeping all the building dust down there. No noticeable dust upstairs or it the living room with the door closed most of the time. Also no smell of dust upstairs at all. Very impressed with it. So I would get one and see, if you feel that it's not enough get a second. But I would imagine that one would be enough. Please let us know what you do and how you get on with it. All the best Dave
I've read the output is low and it is for small rooms only 155 sq ft actually
