MAIN FEATURES
PRODUCT FEATURES
Dual True HEPA Air Filtration
Both of the Revive's True HEPA filters capture 99.97% of
particles 0.3µ and larger. The filter system has been optimized
to quickly remove pollutants from the air.
Efficient Double Suction System
The Revive utilizes a dual-filter system, with filters in the front
and in the rear. With two fans and two air inlets, the Revive
cleans the air quickly and efficiently.
Air Quality Indicator
The Air Quality Indicator is a light that changes color in real time
to indicate the air quality of the room, as measured by the Air
Quality Sensor.
Four Operating Modes
In Auto Mode and Eco Mode, the air flow speed is
automatically controlled based on the air quality in the room.
In Allergen Mode, the fan speed automatically goes to
maximimum, quickly removing pollutants in the room.
In Fan Speed Mode, or Manual Mode, the fan speed is set
to your liking, regardless of the air quality in the room.
Auto-Adjusting Humidifier
Both a Humidifier Filter and a Humidity Sensor work together to
control the amount of moisture released based on the room's
temperature and humidity level.
The Revive also features Evaporative Humidification. See page
7 for more details.

EVAPORATIVE HUMIDIFICATION
Humidification Method
The humidifying method used in the Revive is
the Evaporative Humidification method. This
method uses three parts: water tank, water tray
and wick filter. The water tank supplies water to
the water tray as the wick filter absorbs water.
Air is drawn into the Revive and passes through
the wick filter humidifying the air and expelling
it back into the room.
The expelled air temperature may feel cooler than the current room temperature. This is due to
the air picking up moisture through the wick filter and losing heat. Depending on the room size
this may have a cooling eect on the room’s temperature.
Be aware that the humidifying eect on the room may be aected by the surrounding humidity
or temperature. If the humidity is high or the temperature is low, the amount of moisture
supplied by the humidifier may be low.
Evaporative Method Advantages
With the Evaporative Humidification Method, the water particles used to humidify the room’s
atmosphere are small and light-weight. The smaller particle size can travel through the air
more easily and eciently, providing an even humidity throughout the room instead of over-
saturating the immediately-surrounding area.
Evaporative Humidification is self-regulating, as the room’s atmosphere determines how much
water evaporates from the humidifier into the air.
Coverage
The Revive’s Humidifying feature is designed for optimum performance for a room of 350
square feet. If the Revive is used in a larger room, the humidifier may be less eective. To
humidify a larger space set the fan speed to 3 in Humidifying Air Purifier Mode.
