In this review, we’re going to take a look at the product offerings by Air Filter Canada, a subsidiary of BelKraft which originated in Canada in 1965.
One thing that makes this company unique is the fact that their air purifiers are built in Mississauga, Ontario.
This includes the filters.
Many other brands outsource their product development to places like China which can sometimes lead to inferior parts.
The only part of the machine that Air Filter Canada doesn’t produce is the motor which is imported from Germany.
The motor is a highly sophisticated sealed bearing technology that Air Filter Canda engineers can’t duplicate.
And instead of settling for a cheaper alternative, they only go with the best.
This superior performance allows the company to offer a 5-year manufacturer warranty and lifetime half price replacement on all of their products.

Six-Stage Compact Air Purifier
This air purifier is one of the most advanced systems on the market today.
Unlike the other products mentioned on this page, this air purifier boasts three additional stages of air cleaning power.
The one thing you should keep in mind is that the sixth stage (Deodorizer/Ozonator) should only be used when people are not present.
The purpose of the Deodorizer/Ozonator is to remove offensive odors by splitting the atom molecules of the pollutants.
This process has been known to cause eye, nose, and throat irritation.
The best thing to do is turn this stage on and leave the house for a few hours while it freshens the air.

- Six-Stage Air Filtration System
- Stage 1: Pre-filter
- Stage 2: HEPA Filter
- Stage 3: Micro Antimicrobial Filter
- Stage 4: Activated Carbon Filter
- Stage 5: Ionizer
- Stage 6: Deodorizer/Ozonator
