Clean Air Delivery Rate From air cleaner to air cleaner, compare the CADR numbers. First look at suggested room size. Then refer to the Clean Air Delivery Rate (CADR) numbers. The higher the number, the faster the unit filters the air. This air cleaner is suggested for use in a single, closed room up to 124 square feet. Higher CADR rates provide improved performance in all room sizes. Portable air cleaners will be much more effective in rooms when all the doors and windows are closed. TOBACCO SMOKE: 80+ This value represents performance that can be expected within the first 72 hours of operation. Subsequent use may vary with use. Tested per ANSI/AHAM AC-1 National Standard What is CADR? CADR stands for “Clean Air Delivery Rate,” which indicates the volume of filtered air delivered by an air purifier. CADR ratings show the effectiveness of how efficient the air purifier is at capturing fine particles from things like tobacco smoke and plant pollens from the room.
