1. What room size can the Philips AC2221/63 cover?
Philips lists coverage of up to 109 m² under NRCC and 50 m² under GB/T. These are two ratings for the same model, calculated using different methods. Use the same standard when comparing it with another purifier.

2. What does a CADR of 420 m³/h mean?
CADR stands for Clean Air Delivery Rate. It measures how quickly the purifier delivers particle-filtered air under test conditions. It is an airflow rate, not a floor-area measurement.

3. Does it capture dust, pollen and PM2.5?
Yes. Its pre-filter and HEPA layer capture airborne particles as air passes through the unit. The purifier does not remove dust already settled on furniture or floors.

4. Can it help reduce household odours?
Yes. The activated carbon layer helps reduce certain airborne odours. For persistent smells, address the source and ventilate when appropriate.

5. Does the display show outdoor AQI?
No. The display provides feedback from the purifier’s indoor PM2.5 sensor. It does not show the outdoor AQI reported for your city.

6. Can I use the purifier without Wi-Fi?
Yes. You can operate the purifier using the controls on the unit. Wi-Fi is needed for remote control and scheduling through the Philips Air+ app.

7. Is it quiet enough for a bedroom?
Sleep Mode is rated at 13 dB, compared with 45 dB in Turbo Mode. The display can also dim automatically to reduce light disturbance at night.

8. Which replacement filter does it use, and how long does it last?
Use the Philips FY2200/30. Philips India’s product page lists one year, while its online store lists a three-year replacement recommendation. Because the published guidance differs, follow the instructions supplied with your unit and its filter replacement alert. Actual filter life depends on usage and air quality.

9. Does the 99.97% rating apply to all particles in the room?
No. It describes particle capture in a laboratory test of air passing through the filter. It is not a guarantee that the purifier removes 99.97% of particles from an entire room.

10. How much power does it use, and what warranty is included?
The purifier is rated at 28 W. Philips lists a two-year warranty, subject to its warranty terms.
