    Nice. Mine's been sending me notifications for the last four weeks that it needs replacing.

    Been pretty happy with how long it's lasted, just short of 12 months BUT 3 months of that was during bushfire season where we had a massive bushfire burning most of that time only 20km (and at one point, less than 10km) from us. Some days you could only see a few meters down the road.

      I haven't even had mine for 6 months and it's doing the same. One bedroom apartment, don't cook every night, leave it on auto. Wondering if my 3H is faulty, should last longer than this, right?

      • Clear on 16/02/2021 - 16:27

        It's designed for the very polluted China and also to get you to spend more money. The filter is fine.

      • fraid knot on 16/02/2021 - 16:39
        +2

        Yeah mine is the same after 6 months. I leave it on auto as well and rarely here it comes on so I'm assuming this alert is time based and not actually how much usage the purifier has had.

      • kapone on 16/02/2021 - 16:43

        I think it might depend on your environment (i.e. things that would trigger the fan), not necessarily air quality. I think it's best to not have them right up against a wall, as anytime some dust gets even slightly stirred up the fan will kick in.

        • theory on 16/02/2021 - 16:46

          Yeah, have given it space away from the wall. Fan only kicks in when I cook on the stove, which isn't very often. Looks like it's based on time. Apparently can stick some metal between the bottom of the filter and the base to disable the NFC and stop getting the warning. Might give this a crack.

      • Telios on 16/02/2021 - 16:47

        It looks like it automatically goes down around 1% per day.

        No matter what level I leave it on.

      • FuRyZ on 16/02/2021 - 18:18

        Depends on the air quality and the environment the unit lives in.

        I have 2 filters, one upstairs and one downstairs. The unit upstairs had to have its filter replaced after 9 months, while the one downstairs is still going strong for over a year now. And sure enough, I opened the upstairs unit and checked the filter, it was completely caked in dust and it did need replacing. The unit sensors are more accurate than you think about how soon a filter needs to be replaced.

    • SeVeN11 on 16/02/2021 - 16:32

      It's based on how long you turn the fan on for…
      I just vacuum the damn filter, put it back in and reset the timer…

      Now I just ignore the message because I can't even be bother resetting the timer.

      • haru on 16/02/2021 - 16:46

        Does vacuuming a HEPA filter actually work?

        • kapone on 16/02/2021 - 17:06
          +2

          It'd help, but definitely wouldn't have the same level of effectiveness. Depends on your needs.

          Everyone in my house is asthmatic except me, so I'm happy to buy a new filter.

        • blonky on 16/02/2021 - 19:06

          It clears the massive accumulation of dust from it to restore the airflow but won’t restore the activated carbon filter properties

          Ours needs a good clean every 2 months

          And the replacement timer in the app is 183 days that’s it, even though the manual says up to 12 months

      • kevinMario on 16/02/2021 - 17:26

            @KRiSX: @KRiSX was looking around and it looks like the older Purifiers don't read the chip, mine's the 3H so I don't think I'll be able to trick it. Fingers crossed :P

    Don't waste your money. HEPA filters used at home last very long. This bio lab didn't need to replace most of theirs for 10+ years. https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/pdf/10.1177/109135059800300….

    • selphie on 16/02/2021 - 17:21

    • timps on 16/02/2021 - 17:28
      +10

      There's 3 layers of filter, and not all will last for a long time.
      If you actually read the article you linked you'd see that they describe a setup where air passes through 2 other filters for large particulates before it even gets to the HEPA filter. In these systems for homes, there is a single filter and no other filtration stage.

      You didn't even read the link you're throwing around as the "answer".

      • dcash on 17/02/2021 - 08:46

        There is AT LEAST one pre-filter on every home air filtration device that utilises HEPA or HEPA-type filters. Xiaomi call it the "primary filter" on the filter posted in this thread, and its sole purpose is to capture the larger particles, thus prolonging the life of the HEPA filter. The primary filter can be vacuumed clean to return it to an 'as-new' state.

        • timps on 17/02/2021 - 18:28
          +1

          The filter is a single unit that is installed in one go. Defining the layers as anything in particular is of little merit and absolutely none in the context of the link OP posted

    • MrsJones on 16/02/2021 - 19:34

      On my air purifier there are 2 other filters before the HEPA filter so this is very interesting. Thank you for sharing

  • humbala on 16/02/2021 - 17:08

    Currently using the green filter which it does have an extra layer of active carbon filter.

    Look at the green vs grey vs purple:

    https://www.mi-store.com.au/xiaomi-mi-air-purifier-anti-form…

    https://www.mi-store.com.au/xiaomi-mi-air-purifier-hepa-filt…

    https://www.mi-store.com.au/xiaomi-mi-air-purifier-filter-an…

    Look like only the green one have the thick extra layer of carbon filter, the other two still have carbon filter but is thinner and not removable (not that you will remove the one in the green one to clean anyway).

    I wonder if for absorbing odour the green one can do a better job since it has 'more' carbon filter?
    For me, the green one is working well for removing the burning smell last year during the bushfire.

  • ComputerPC on 16/02/2021 - 17:11

    • dcash on 16/02/2021 - 17:17

      Do you honestly think the machine has the "smarts" to know when the filter needs changing? It's just a timer based on how long the fan is running and on what speed, designed solely to extract more money out of you. It seems it's working, too ;)

      • ComputerPC on 16/02/2021 - 17:28
        +1

        I was leaving it like that for about 2-3 months now.
        Just taken the filter out and give it a bit of cleaning, it still does something to the air but not that quick compare to the previous.
        I think 12 months is a good period to start changing the filter.

        I agree with you about the percentage of the filter, it might be just calculate about the air volume running through it and decide it is time to change.

        There is a RF tag at the bottom of the filter where the machine register with the XIAOMI servers somewhere about the status of its filter, might be changing the tags will refresh the life of a dead filter ? :D

      If it smells sour then the carbon filter is full and has absorbed all it can. You could try let it air in hot direct sunlight on a 30C or higher day to help release the gases back into the air. But best to replace

      You should be able to change the location for the 2S to AU first (I previously had M.China set for my vacuum because AU didn't exist, but was able to change it over to AU later on) and then add the 3H.
