NEWS 4/4/2012: Nikken has introduced the new KenkoAir Purifier on Monday, April 2, 2012 and discontinued the Air Wellness Power 5 Pro. For owners of the Air Wellness Power 5 Pro, Nikken usually keeps replacement parts in stock for 5 or 6 years for discontinued units. If you have the older Air Wellness Power 5 (like I do), the replacement parts should still be available for at least another year. I will be sure to post something here if I hear anything different.
Do you have a Nikken Air Filter? Almost everybody has some form of air filtration in their home and statistics still show that indoor air quality is poor.

Why Use a System Like the Nikken KenkoAir Purifier
The EPA reports that scientific evidence shows that the air inside homes can be more seriously polluted than outdoor air. When people spend about 90 percent of their time inside this becomes a real problem. Indoor pollution can come from heat sources, building materials, furnishings, and household products such as air freshners, cleaners, and personal care items.
Problems with Ozone-Generating Air Filters
Many air cleaners produce ozone, either intentially or as a by-product of generating negative ions. The EPA also has some information about the risks of having ozone generators in your home. They say that ozone can damage the lungs and small amounts can cause chest pain, coughing, shortness of breath, and throat irritation. It can also make asthma worse and make it harder for the body to fight respiratory infections.
The KenkoAir Purifier has multiple stages of air filtration to take care of most of the air problems that may exist in your home. It also generates clean negative ions, that is negative ions without generating harmful ozone.
Note: The KenkoAir Purifier is also available as part of the new Nikken Vital Environment Pack that you can see here.
My Experience with the Nikken Air Filter
I have had pollen allergies since I was small, so air filtration is a concern for us. We have used the Nikken Air Filter in our house since we started with Nikken and it has kept my allergies in check. Aside from my allergies, the most significant thing we have noticed is how fresh the air smells from the negative ions that it generates. One good indication of how well the Air Wellness technology works is with plants. They love it. The plants that we have placed near the outflow from the air filter grow much faster.
Take the Nikken Air Wellness Traveler With You – Portable Air Filter
Air filtration is a concern when traveling too. While in your car you breathe what comes out of the tailpipe of the car or truck in front of you. The Air Wellness Traveler is a great portable air filtration system that you can take with you to use in your car, office, hotel room, or any other place where you need something portable.

How to Maintain Your Nikken Air Filter
Some people aren’t sure if they have the Power 5 or the Power 5 Pro. Take a look at the pictures in the product section above and you should be able to easily determine which one you have.
Maintaining your Air Wellness Power 5 Pro is easy. I recommend that you vacuum off the pre-filter screen about once a month to prolong the life the the filtration components. When it is time to change the components, just take out the old ones and replace them with the new ones. They all come together in one pack to make it very convenient for you.
If you have the older Air Wellness Power 5 then it is a good idea to clean off the area around the particle sensor when you vacuum off the pre-filter screen. After you have taken off the cover, the particle sensor is the area that sticks out to the left of the top of the filters. This keeps the unit from kicking into turbo when it doesn’t really need to.
Here’s a video of how I take care of my Air Wellness Power 5. Most of it is applies to the Power 5 Pro as well.
