## Description

AIR PURIFICATION FROM A BRAND YOU TRUST You know the importance of indoor air quality. You should have an air purifier from a brand you trust. According to the EPA, when used properly, air purifiers can help reduce airborne contaminants, including viruses, in a home or confined space. The Plasmacluster™ 7000 Series KCP70UW Smart Air Purifier by SHARP is your choice for large rooms. Effective up to 1,913 sq. ft. at one air change per hour, the KCP70UW will filter the air in the AHAM Suggested Room Size of 396 sq. ft. at 4.8 air changes per hour. Monitor your home’s air quality and adjust settings remotely using the SHARP AIR App Available for Apple and Android Devices. Compatible with desertcart Alexa and Google Assistant so you can use voice commands in your smart home. desertcart Alexa and Google Assistant enabled devices Sold Separately. Raise your expectations of an air purifier and ensure a lower total cost of ownership over the years. Other brands may suggest replacing the filters every six months; that can really add up! The SHARP long-life True HEPA filter, long-life Activated Carbon filter, and Humidifying filter all last up-to 2 years, depending on the environment. The KCP70UW meets the strict energy efficiency criteria to earn the ENERGY STAR® Rating. According to energystar.gov, Energy Star Rated products use less energy, save you money on your electricity bill, and help protect the environment by causing fewer harmful emissions from power plants. The triple filtration system helps clean the air that passes through the filters in three ways. The washable, microscreen pre-filter traps dust and other large airborne particles. The activated carbon deodorizing filter helps reduce some common household odors. Finally, the True HEPA filter effectively captures 99.97% of particles from the air that passes through the filter from 0.3 microns and larger. The KCP70UW includes a humidifier that may make your home more comfortable. Beyond passive filtration, our KCP70UW features Plasmacluster™ Ion Technology for an active cleaning process. SHARP Plasmacluster™ Ion Technology has been tested around the world by laboratories in the United States, United Kingdom, Germany, Japan, South Korea, China, and Vietnam. The KCP70UW is AHAM Verifide Tested to provide a Clean Air Delivery Rate (CADR) for three common irritants and allergens, Smoke (255), Dust (260), and Pollen (259). It is certified by the California Air Resources Board (CARB) to meet its strict emission standards. The KCP70UW features Max, Med, and Low fan speeds, plus Auto. In Auto mode, the dust and odor sensors will monitor your air quality and adjust the fan speed automatically. The convenient fixed caster wheels make it easy to move the KCP70UW from room to room. Additional settings available in the app and via voice command include Sleep, Pollen, and Express Clean Modes. Weekly Scheduler, Filter Replacement Status, Auto Presence ON/OFF, and Air Quality Information History are also exclusively available in the SHARP AIR App. The Library Quiet™ Sleep setting is perfect for the bedroom.SHARP Plasmacluster™ Ion Technology has been used in over 100 million products worldwide, including leading auto makers and refrigeration appliance manufacturers. It’s no wonder people around the world trust SHARP. Now that is Simply Better Living.

Review: Allergies, dust and dropping humidity caused by our furnace was the main reasons to look into devices with both purifying and humidifying function. After couple of weeks of research, we decided to go with Sharp KCP70U for large homes and I have to say, we love it! It was surely an investment ($500 range) compare to other (cheaper) products, but nothing offered complex autonomous functions as this product. Delivery was much faster than expected. Product is relatively large, but very slick and design very appealing. It contains massive HEPA, carbon filter and water trey with filter. Assembly was easy (to remove plastic bags from filters) and we were ready to go. Wifi function is great, however setting that up was a bit of a challenge, however we just needed to follow instructions step by step. We were able to set up a schedule based on our schedule so we don’t waste energy when we are not at home. On auto mode with humidifying it takes about 5-7W. Only disappointment was its non compatibility with Alexa. Maybe in the future. On auto setting or sleep setting it’s very quiet. We barely notice it. It’s a pity we can’t set humidity to any level, it does that automatically, however we don’t need to think about humidity dropping under certain level, which is great. We would definitely recommend this product to anyone who has a severe allergy. In combination with robotic vacuums, we don’t need to worry with excessive dust, pm2.5 particles and odor in our house. It’s definitely worth it.
Review: I've had this air purifier for about a month, and I like it! For now I'll give you my initial impressions, and I'll come back if I have anything to add later. Some reviewers have mentioned plastic smells. When I first opened the included filters and installed them into the unit, I did notice a very slight odor. However, once I turned the machine on and started using it, there was no smell whatsoever. The air that comes out of this air purifier has no odor that I can detect. I tend to be sensitive to chemical smells, but I'll admit that some people may be able to sense odors that I cannot. The best we can do here is describe our own experiences. One of the first things you will notice about this model is that it is always processing a significant amount of air, even if it is making no noticeable noise. It's quite impressive. The clean air blows out of the top of the device, so it contributes to air circulation without blowing in your face. I've had two air purifiers before this one. The first was one of the round Honeywell HEPA models. I bought that one in the late 90s, when HEPA air purifiers were a novelty. The Honeywell was very loud, and I never really felt that it was doing much to keep our air clean. Eventually I think I gave that one away. Back in 2011 I bought a Sanyo ABC-VW24 Air Washer Air Purification System with Electrolyzed Water Technology . That was a very nice device, and I'm still using it. The electrolyzed mist feature doesn't work as well as it used to, but the machine pops into action when smells appear, and it noticeably improves the air quality in our home. Sanyo was acquired by Panasonic, which still makes a line of air purifiers but apparently doesn't sell them in the United States. The Sharp FPA80UW is bigger than my Sanyo, and it seems to be at least as effective. It doesn't respond to smells as noticeably as the Sanyo but it doesn't have to, since as I said it is *always* processing a significant amount of air--and silently! If you put your ear right next to the unit you can hear some air flow and a very slight sound of small particles of activated carbon rustling in the filter, but this thing is amazingly quiet. I think it makes sense to get this model over the FPA60UW, unless you are only going to use it in a small room. The two use the same filters, but the FPA80UW can process more air in less time, which means it will make a bigger difference in your air quality. The thing to remember about air purifiers is that they can't eliminate odors whose source remains present. So no air purifier will get rid of the smell of cigarette smoke if there's a smoker in your home, or the smell of mildew if you have a moisture problem. If you have a damp basement, probably the best thing you can do for the quality of the air in your home is to install a dehumidifier in your basement. Once you have eliminated odor sources, I would strongly recommend this air purifier to help keep your home's air clean. Finally, when I was shopping for an air purifier I found the following resource to be very helpful: air-purifier-power dot com.

*by A***T on 21 May 2014*

If you do not live in a dry area, having a reasonable amount of humidity (water) for this "Plasmacluster" Ionizer to create hydroxyl ions from, then this tech cannot currently be beat. This tech definitely works. The closest competitor are PCO (Photo-Catalytic Oxidation) devices which also create hydroxyl ions although a different process, but they use 10x the power. To be fair, a "good" PCO will also kill more airborne viruses, but apparently they are not all "good" at this point. Back to Sharp's entry, the FPA80UW and FPA60UW are the same device, except 2 things. First the motor is heavier duty in the FPA80, and both run at low speed at 71cfm but the FPA80 is 2dB quieter, and 2dB in a range that you can tell. So it's worth the extra money, if you are sleeping with this in the bedroom to get the 23dB FPA80 rather than the 25dB PFA60. I can hear the difference. It's worth the money if you need to clean a large area, the FPA 60 won't handle it. Our calculation of Sq. Ft. "CADR", the CFM produced, and reality, lead us to believe the room size in Sq. Ft. is overrated by Sharp Japan, using probably a 7 ft. ceiling as the constant. Keep this in mind if you have 9 ft. ceilings, we figure 7/9 of rated Sq. Ft.. The second thing different, the FPA80 has the dust sensor built in. A nice feature, it seems to sense higher levels of dust as designed, but not a "have to have". Filters. Sharp has a standalone FZ-A60HFU 1.5" HEPA replacement. You can buy the charcoal foam in rolls. They(edit) did step up and supply part FZ-A60HFU for their units. The Whirlpool and Alen each make superior 2" filter (the filter bay is over 2" deep so it fits), for less $$, that could be made (cut) to fit. In conclusion, Sharp has a great product and is charging a premium for it.
