The E.L. Foust 160R2 Room Air Purifier was specifically designed for people with multiple chemical sensitivities or MCS. That means no plastic and no glues. The all metal construction does not allow it to absorb odors or off-gas volatile organic compounds like plastic. The all metal construction also means it won't be taking up space for 1,000 years after it has reached the end of it's lifespan.

The 160R2 contains 7 lbs. of activated carbon mix and controls particles with an optional HEPA rated at 0.1 micron efficiency. It has performed well in independent lab tests; and is used & recommended by allergists & environmental doctors nationwide.

Very quiet operation and can be used in homes, bedrooms, classrooms, offices etc...

Decibel rating is 18 @ 3 feet.

Please Note: The alpha stat pre-filter is not necessary for normal household or business use. The alpha stat is only needed for extreme dust particles, dirt, and pet dander. Normal cartridge life is 6-9 months in typical indoor air quality.

Mike is an amazing customer service rep. He went above, beyond and over the moon helping me to test one of these. His concern and compassion, patience, ability to explain the finer points of charcoal filter blends, suggestions on placement, prompt replies and shipping---he was the whole package! In this post-COVID time with employee shortages and the like, I'm sure his schedule is full but not once did I feel he was rushing or that I was keeping him from something else. Superlative customer service in every way!
My physician had several of these & recommended them. I bought 2 @ 20 yrs ago & I’m still loving them.
As a Building Biologist I have tested air quality in thousands of homes and encountered numerous air purifiers with many gimmicks and gadgets but the Foust machines always give us the best lab results by far. These air purifiers can clear a room faster than anything and can be used right out of the box with no offensive odors.
We have six of these all over the house. Plus I have an automotive one in the car. Fantastic air purifier!
I’ve had my Foust room filter for decades! I use it at least an hour in the morning and an hour in the evening, and it just keeps on going and going. Amazing. And ordering replacement cartridges is so easy. This is something in my life that really works well.
It’s an investment, but I’m so happy with my air purifier! I’m very sensitive and I was able to use it right out of the box (no off gassing!), and it has saved me on several occasions (laundry exhaust or second hand smoke coming in the window, forest fire smoke, etc). Though it’s not made to be portable, it is sturdy and I saved the packaging so I travel with it (I've checked it on a plane, packed it in the car). It has been indispensable for staying in close-but-not-quite scent-free AirBnbs or spaces with newer construction/furniture.

A great investment for folks with MCS or environmental sensitivities!
