Product description

The Ilume Aerleaf is a true HEPA 13 air purifier for rooms up to 1,000 sq ft. Air passes through three real filters: a pre-filter for pet hair and dust, a True HEPA 13 layer that captures 99.9% of fine particles down to 0.3 microns, and an activated-carbon layer for smoke and odors. CARB certified and zero ozone.

A built-in air-quality sensor reads the room and Auto mode sets the fan for you; the light turns green when the air is clean. A quiet Sleep mode dims the lights for overnight. Run it with the buttons on top or the optional app. About 8.7 in wide and 14 in tall, 50W, in white or black, backed by a 2-year warranty.

Benefits you can feel
  • Less dust settling on furniture between cleans
  • Fewer lingering pet and cooking smells
  • Easier breathing overnight in the bedroom
  • Pollen and dander pulled from the air in allergy season
  • A room that simply smells fresher when you walk in
Replacement filters

One 3-in-1 replacement filter holds the pre-filter, HEPA 13, and carbon in a single cartridge. Twist the bottom base open and swap it in about 30 seconds, no tools.

Plan on a fresh filter every 6 to 12 months depending on use. Your first replacement is free. You can also add a year of filters (two replacements) for $69, one time. Turn on auto-renew to make it a yearly plan and save 10%, cancel anytime.

User manual

Setup takes a minute: plug it in, press power, and pick a fan speed or Auto. For app control, open the Ilume app and follow the on-screen pairing steps. Use Sleep mode and dim the display for overnight.

Pollen, dust and dander magnified, the particles floating in your air
You can't see your air

Is your air actually bad? Here is how to tell.

Most of it is invisible. A few signs usually mean it is time:

  • Dust is back on the shelf a day after you cleaned it
  • A smell you have stopped noticing, but guests catch right away
  • You wake up stuffy, or mornings are the worst part of the day
  • Pet odor or dander that never quite clears

If a few sound familiar, a HEPA purifier is the easy fix.

Independently tested by EcomReviews

Don't take our word for it. Watch it work.

Most purifiers ask you to take it on faith. Air is invisible, so we made the proof something you can watch. An independent reviewer ran all five in sealed chambers anyone can see, and Ilume cleared the air first.

Zero ozone, CARB certified. ETL listed for electrical safety, made in a TÜV-verified factory.

Everything it catches is what you'd have breathed.

How it works

Three real layers, not one.

Cheap purifiers use a single thin filter. Ilume's 3-stage system pulls air through three real filters, in plain order. No ozone, ever.

1

Pre-filter

Catches pet hair and visible dust, so the main filter lasts longer.

2

True HEPA 13

Traps up to 99.9% of fine dust, pollen, and dander, down to 0.3 microns.

3

Activated carbon

Soaks up odors and smoke, what pet owners notice most.

Honest answers

First-timer questions

Do I really need a HEPA purifier?
If dust comes back fast, the house smells closed-up, or someone wakes up stuffy, a true-HEPA purifier is one of the simplest fixes. You do not need allergies for cleaner air to be worth it.
What does "True HEPA" actually mean?
It is a filter standard that captures up to 99.9% of fine particles, the tiny dust, pollen, and dander that cheaper filters let through. Ilume uses a real H13 HEPA filter, not a "HEPA-type" lookalike.
Will it help with my dog or cat?
Yes. The HEPA layer captures dander and hair, and the carbon layer absorbs the odor. Pet owners are the people who tell us they notice it most.
How often do I change the filter, and what does it cost?
About every 6 to 12 months, depending on use. Your first replacement is free. After that, you can add a year of filters for $69 (two filters), one time. Turn on auto-renew to make it a yearly plan and save 10%. No subscription required.
Is it loud? Can I sleep with it on?
On its highest fan speed it reaches about 60 dB; a dedicated Sleep mode keeps it quiet for overnight, and you can dim the display so no bright lights keep you up. Most owners run it on a low or Sleep setting in the bedroom.
Does it make ozone?
No. Ilume cleans the air with three real filters and nothing else, so it adds zero ozone to your room. It is CARB certified, the California standard that confirms zero ozone emissions.
Do I have to subscribe?
No. One-time is the default and the guarantee is never tied to a subscription. If you want, you can turn on auto-renew to make it a yearly filter plan and save 10%, then skip or cancel in 30 seconds anytime.
Can I buy it on Amazon or in stores?
No, Ilume is sold only here, direct from us. That is how the price stays well under the big premium brands, with no retail markup.

Simple on purpose.

Nothing to set up, nothing to learn, nothing to manage.

Simple buttons on top Optional app, if you want it No subscription required Plug it in and it works 30-second filter swap, no tools
