Know before you buy
Yes, the Air 50 features a hybrid filtration system. You can choose to use it bagless with the permanent filter or with a disposable bag for added convenience and easier disposal.
Operating at just 59 decibels, this unit is significantly quieter than a traditional portable vacuum. Its DUO ACOUSTIC technology allows you to clean without disrupting household activities or conversations.
With a large 42.3-liter capacity, the dust canister is designed to handle significant debris, meaning most households will only need to empty it a few times per year.
The permanent filter is antibacterial and machine-washable, making it easy to maintain. Simply remove it and wash it periodically to keep the system running efficiently and odor-free.
The Air 50 is designed for versatility and can be installed in various locations, such as a garage, utility room, or even a closet, provided there is adequate space for the unit's dimensions.
The LED indicator serves as a helpful alert system to let you know when the unit requires attention, such as when the dust canister is full or the filter needs cleaning, ensuring optimal performance.
