OxyPure Air Purifier

Feature Questions

  • 1. Odor

    The odor sensor is located on the side of the OxyPure, inside the unit. The odor is then displaying detected odor level of pollutants including cleaning and cooking household odors. This sensor should not be cleaned internally as this can lead to sensor damage.

  • 2. Air Quality

    The air quality sensor is located under a cover in the back of the unit. The air quality sensor detects overall air quality in the vicinity of the OxyOure and displays it on the control panel on top of the unit. This sensor requires cleaning maintenance to remain accurate. To clean the sensor simply use a q-tip.

  • 3. Turbo

    The turbo feature turns the unit to the highest speed to purify the air quickly and efficiently. This mode can be set to ½ hour, 1 hour or 2 hours.

  • 4. Timer

    The timer can be used to automatically turn off the OxyPure unit after a certain amount of time.

  • 5. Fan Speed

    With this button the user can manually set the fan speed they desire.

  • 6. Ultimate Clean Mode

    The button to activate this mode is located on top of the unit and can be activated by pressing the button once. The Ultimate Clean mode is designed to battle the most challenging environments, detecting, and cleaning the air quickly, using the Turbo power.

  • 7. Auto Mode

    The button to activate this mode is located on top of the unit and can be activated by pressing the button once. This mode is designed to keep OxyPure continuously on to maintain good air quality through Fan Speed adjustment to the Air Quality and Odor levels, as detected by the sensors.

  • 8. Eco-Friendly Mode

    This mode conserves energy by keeping the OxyPure in stand-by mode until poor air quality is detected, which is then purifier using the highest fan speed. This mode can help you save money on electricity down to continuous operation as low as $10 per year. To activate this mode, press the Power button simultaneously with the Ultimate Clean button.

  • 9. Sleep Mode

    This mode will turn off all lights on the OxyPure and will allow you to choose any fan speed or mode you would like and will keep working in the previously specified mode until any button. To activate the Sleep Mode, you can hold down Fan Speed for 3 seconds.

Product Questions

  • 1. Where should I place the OxyPure™?

    You can place the Nuwave® OxyPure® Smart Air Purifier anywhere you like. With its 360-degree air intake, it pulls in air from all around the unit.

  • 2. How do I read the Air Quality Levels?

    The Nuwave OxyPure® Smart Air Purifier senses both air quality and odors. There are six levels for each on the display. Each shows different colors to indicate the cleanliness of the air with green meaning that the air is clean, and red, on the opposite end of the dial, indicating severe air purity issues.

  • 3. What is the Auto-Control Function?

    This setting allows the Nuwave® OxyPure® Smart Air Purifier to react automatically based on air quality, engaging the fan at Speed 3 when Level 3 air quality is detected.

  • 4. What is the Eco-Friendly Mode?

    This energy-saving function is like the Auto-Control Function in that it allows the OxyPure® to remain off until poor air quality is detected. Once poor air quality is detected, the unit goes into Auto Mode and works until the air quality is back to good air quality, and then it shuts off.

  • 5. What is the Ultimate Clean Function?

    This is another energy-saving mode during which the OxyPure® fan operates constantly on Speed 1 if the air quality is good, increasing to Speed 6 at the first hint of poor air quality or odor, and then returning to Speed 1 once air quality is restored.

  • 6. What is Night Time Sleep Mode?

    This mode will turn off the Nuwave® OxyPure®’s indicator lights, and automatically adjusts the fan speed to maintain air quality while minimizing noise.

  • 7. How do I clean my Nuwave OxyPure™ Smart Air Purifier?

    The Nuwave® OxyPure® Smart Air Purifier is very easy to clean and maintain. Simply follow these steps:

  • 2. Anions - Intertek Testing Services

    In addition to producing no ozone, the OxyPure® also produces no extraneous negative ions (anions). The Bio-Guard Filter creates anions as part of its normal function. However, like the pathogens and particles trapped by the Bio-Guard Filter, the anions it generates also remain in the filter.

  • 5. Ozone Emission - Intertek Testing Services

    Ground level ozone concentrations (measured in parts per billion or ppb) varies depending on where you live. You can live in places where it is fairly low, like Oahu in Hawaii, which averages 49ppb1; or in places like Chicago, which averages 72ppb2. The national average hovers around 70ppb3, which is also the current EPA standard. The CARB-Certified OxyPure®'s Ozone filter drops the ozone concentration in your home to 1ppb, 70 times lower than current EPA limits and well below the ozone concentration you would find outside anywhere in the U.S.
