Is there a difference in the power of the fan, or type/number of plates between this New Comfort Hepa UV filter & the NC without the Hepa & UV?

The fan has variable speed. The Ch3500 has 3 filters and 2 ceramic plates. It is simplistic to clean a vacuum or compressed air to clean filters and a mixture of 50/50 ammonia and water to clean plates. no other tools required.

The filters (2) are proprietary and only available from Trend. They are high quality foam type filters but I don't think they are hepa rated. I use the Airshield for woodturning and find it to be very effective for air filtration and face protection.

As I understand it, the company decided it was better to call the filter 'long-life' rather than 'lifetime'. So they marketed the same exact machine under a new model name. The 'N' was changed to an 'S'. The explanation seems reasonable to me, but I can't verify it. The quote below is from the following webpage: http://www.iallergy.com/product143/product_info.html "Note: The 50250-S product is identical to the recently discontinued 50250-N which advertised a permanent HEPA filter. The only thing that has changed with the 50250-S is the product packaging. While both the air purifier and included filters inside have not changed, the packaging now advertises the true HEPA filter as long life as opposed to permanent. Again, only the advertisement has changed, the product remains the same."

It'll save you money from the Honeywell in a couple of years b/c the filters need less changing and it uses much less electricity. It's also quieter and has an air-freshening ionizer that the Honeywell doesn't, in addition to the HEPA.

Im sorry Amy, but I don't know about the other unit. What I can say about this is its silent on level one, barely audible at level 2, and a little loud at 3 but it moves lots of air at 3. It has a separate carbon filter which is nice b/c they require frequent changing.I like how this unit has an auto setting, allowing it to go up or down depending on the air quality. I also like how it can turn the plasma function off while still filtering air

The difference is that one has HEPA filter and the other one doesn't. If you are going to use it inside a house, the HEPA one is better.

I have no idea, since I have only this version. Perhaps you could print out the features and specifications of each fan and compare them that way.

The filter requirements is a bit confusing. Three HEPA filters and three carbon filters are required for the larger room model # HAP756-U which I recently purchased and currently using. (Two of both the HEPA and carbon filters are required for the smaller room unit HAP726) Three true HEPA filters were included with the my unit and already installed (there are no discernible marking on the installed filters I can detect indicating a filter model number). However, there were no carbon filters installed or included with my purchased unit but I did purchase a pack of 4 which I installed when I set up my unit. I purchased a package of 2 Holmes make HEPA replacement filters (HAPF600D - B Filters) at the same time. Had I researched this better, I would have purchased the same box of 2 filters, plus 1 lone filter (same model #) since the unit requires that all three filter be changed when the red light indicates the filters be replaced. I am not aware of any distinction between an HAPF600 and an HAPF600D filter and I couldn't find this out on the Holmes website, either. Perhaps (but not sure) the "D" version removes either different allergens or more allergens from the air. As far as the "B" designation, I believe this identifies these as HEPA filters versus the "C" designation applied to the carbon filters.

I checked, but could not find any information about the nv26 filter. Sorry I couldn't help

Yes. I was confused by the picture of the filter too. The AC5000 unit (black, silver control area, blue UV light tower unit) used to use 2 filters "pushed together" on top of each other, but now it seems to be a single filter and more expensive too! Yikes!Hope this helps.

Read my review on the Winix -- I'd pass on that one if I were you. I am not a big HEPA filter fan -- they are EXPENSIVE to replace and once nasty bugs get trapped, well, they can reinfect you. I'd look for something with electrostatic plates you can clean at no added costs.

I believe, since there are different brands of UV air purifiers that they all have unique bulbs. The LSE model that I have uses a dual bulb with 4 prongs that are configured in a straight line, that fit into the unit.

The filter is specifically designed ONLY for the filters that come with the helmet. HEPA is not an option unless you alter the unit. No this not HEPA, in fact I had to try and improve the helmet, if you need that level of protection get a non electric form fitting filter mask MSA or other from wood craft look at the cat. These helmets give you the minimum requirements go figure out the price as to why they charge so much for something that is inferior to other non powered ones.

According to my online chat with Shark, the replacement filters for the UV420 are XF22 for foam and felt and XHF80 for the HEPA. This looks like the right one for you (and me). I got my vacuum at Costco if that helps.

According to the user manual, you can use either as they are shaped the same & will install the same way. You just don't get the benefit of the hepa super filtering.
