What is the difference between the Puraclenz Photon models?Updated a month ago
Choosing the Right Puraclenz Photon Model
Puraclenz Photon air purifiers all use our patented next-generation PCO technology to actively clean air by emitting purifying ions. However, not all spaces are alike—and neither are our models. Here's how they compare and how to select the best fit for your environment.
🏠 How Much Space Does Each Model Cover?
| Model | Max Coverage Area | Space Example |
|---|---|---|
| Photon 750 | Up to 750 sq. ft. | ~Two 2-car garages / Large bedroom |
| Photon 1500 | Up to 1,500 sq. ft. | Open floor plan home, conference room |
| Photon 3000 | Up to 3,000 sq. ft. | Large gym, open-plan office, entire basement |
Note: Coverage is situational. Ion distribution is affected by walls, doors, and furniture. Purifying ions do not travel through solid surfaces.
🔊 How Loud Is Each Model?
| Model | Noise Level | Comparable Sound |
|---|---|---|
| Photon 750 | 42 ± 2 dBA @ 3 ft | Light hum (very quiet) |
| Photon 1500 | 48 ± 2 dBA @ 3 ft | Dishwasher or white noise |
| Photon 3000 | 54 ± 2 dBA @ 3 ft | Air conditioner (noticeable background hum) |
Important: Fan speed is not adjustable. Noise levels reflect optimized airflow for each unit’s target area.
❓ Which Model is Best for Me?
| Environment | Recommended Model(s) |
|---|---|
| Bedroom, hotel room, small office | Photon 750 (quiet, compact) |
| Open-plan home, meeting room | Photon 1500 (balanced power and noise) |
| Gym, basement, school, senior facility | Photon 3000 (powerful, use where noise is fine) |
| Multi-room home (2,500+ sq. ft.) | Multiple Photon 750s or 1500s across key areas |
For optimal performance, place units in the most frequently used or highest-risk areas. Refer to our Placement Guide for best results.
