Austin Air Bedroom Machine Air Purifier (5-Stage Filtration with Military-Grade HEGA Carbon Cloth)
at 0.3 microns
incl. HEGA cloth
coverage
(66 dB on high)
The Austin Air Bedroom Machine is the most complete filtration Austin Air builds. It runs the same medical-grade True HEPA and deep carbon and zeolite bed as the rest of the line, then adds a fifth stage: a military-grade HEGA carbon cloth (High Efficiency Gas Arrestance) that widens how many gases and chemical vapors the unit can hold. Five stages in one sealed steel cabinet, built to run all night.
It's designed for the bedroom, quiet enough to sleep beside, and it's the pick when you want everything at once: allergens and dust, everyday and chemical odors, and the widest gas coverage in the range. If your needs are simpler, the HealthMate covers everyday air and the HealthMate Plus targets chemicals and VOCs. Both are compared below.
How the Bedroom Machine Compares: HealthMate vs HealthMate Plus vs Bedroom Machine
All three share the same all-steel body, the same 60 sq ft of True Medical HEPA, and the same 5-year warranty. They separate on how much chemical and gas filtration they add on top. The HealthMate is the everyday all-rounder. The HealthMate Plus loads in potassium-iodide impregnated carbon for VOCs and formaldehyde. The Bedroom Machine adds a fifth stage, a military-grade HEGA carbon cloth, for the most comprehensive coverage.

Choose the Bedroom Machine when you want the most complete filtration Austin Air makes and a unit quiet enough to sleep beside. Its fifth HEGA carbon-cloth stage adds the widest gas and chemical coverage in the range on top of full HEPA and carbon filtration. If you need less, the HealthMate handles everyday allergens and odors for the lowest price, and the HealthMate Plus is the call if your one big concern is chemicals and VOCs, with its potassium-iodide carbon aimed right at formaldehyde and fumes.
Filtering a smaller room or on a tighter budget? The HealthMate Junior brings core Austin Air filtration to spaces up to about a single bedroom. Facing the highest-risk environment, where airborne biological contaminants are the concern? Look at the Immunity Machine, Austin Air's top-tier unit.
Coverage is an estimate based on air-change rate and 8-ft ceilings, and varies with layout, ceiling height, and how much you run the unit. Sound levels are approximate and vary by speed setting.
Is the Austin Air Bedroom Machine Right for You?
The Bedroom Machine is for people who don't want to choose between particle, odor, and gas filtration, and who want that in a unit quiet enough to run beside the bed all night.
It's an especially strong fit if you:
✔ Want the most complete filtration Austin Air makes, with the fifth HEGA gas stage
✔ Are looking for a purifier built to run quietly overnight in the bedroom
✔ Deal with a mix of concerns at once: allergens, odors, smoke, and chemical gases
✔ Have allergies or asthma and want clean air while you sleep
✔ Prefer a durable, run-it-24/7 unit over disposable plastic purifiers
Great fit for:
✔ Bedrooms and living rooms up to 1,500 sq ft
✔ Sleep-focused setups where quiet overnight filtration matters
✔ Allergy and asthma households that also deal with odors or gases
✔ Homes with pets where dander and odor both build up
✔ Chemically sensitive households that want the widest gas coverage in the line
What the Austin Air Bedroom Machine Removes
Particles & Allergens (True Medical HEPA)
Air passes through a True Medical Grade HEPA filter with 60 sq ft of media, certified to capture 99.97% of airborne particles down to 0.3 microns and 99% down to 0.1 microns. That lower 0.1-micron figure is what puts it ahead of a basic HEPA unit, since it reaches into the sub-micron range where viruses and bacteria live:
- Pollen and seasonal allergens, common triggers for allergy and asthma symptoms
- Dust and fine particles, caught by the two prefilters and the HEPA media
- Pet dander, the airborne skin flakes from cats and dogs
- Mold spores, captured before they settle and spread
- Smoke particles and sub-micron particles, including many airborne viruses and bacteria
Chemicals, Gases & Odors (Carbon + Zeolite + HEGA Cloth)
The Bedroom Machine carries more than 780 cubic inches (up to 15 lb) of activated carbon blended with zeolite, then finishes with a fifth-stage military-grade HEGA carbon cloth. The granular carbon bed adsorbs the bulk of gases and odors, and the HEGA cloth extends that reach to lighter chemical vapors that a carbon bed alone can let slip past:
- Everyday and cooking odors, from pets, food, and general household air
- Smoke odor, from fireplaces, wildfire smoke, and tobacco
- VOCs and chemical fumes, from cleaning products, furniture, paint, and finishes
- General chemical vapors, held by the combined carbon bed and HEGA cloth
Good to know: if chemical VOCs and formaldehyde are your single biggest concern, the HealthMate Plus uses a potassium-iodide carbon aimed specifically at those gases. The Bedroom Machine trades that specialization for the broadest all-round coverage.
Key Design Features
Military-Grade HEGA Carbon Cloth
The fifth stage and the reason to choose this unit. HEGA stands for High Efficiency Gas Arrestance, an activated-carbon cloth developed for gas and chemical protection. It widens the range of vapors the Bedroom Machine can hold beyond what the granular carbon bed catches on its own.
Sealed 5-Stage System
Two prefilters, a deep carbon and zeolite bed, medical-grade True HEPA, and the HEGA cloth sit in sequence, so each stage does its job before air reaches the next. Nothing bypasses the filters.
60 sq ft of True Medical HEPA
A large pleated HEPA area means slower air speed through the media, which lifts capture efficiency and stretches filter life.
360° All-Steel Intake
The unit pulls air from every side of its powder-coated steel housing, which improves circulation and keeps airflow up as the filter loads.
No Plastic Off-Gassing
The all-steel body avoids the plastic smell that cheaper purifiers can add to a room, which matters most for sensitive users and bedrooms.
Simple 3-Speed Dial
One manual dial sets low, medium, or high. Run it low for quiet overnight cleaning at under 50 dB, or high to clear a room fast at about 66 dB.
Maintenance & Filter Life
Austin Air keeps ownership simple. Instead of juggling several filter schedules, the Bedroom Machine uses one integrated filter that you replace as a single unit:
- Filter life: up to 5 years under normal residential use
- Replacement: the entire filter assembly swaps in as one piece, no separate carbon, HEPA, and prefilter to track
- When to replace: when odors start to pass through or airflow noticeably drops
- Routine care: vacuum the outer steel intake and wipe the housing now and then
The Bedroom Machine is designed to run continuously, which is the simplest way to keep air quality steady overnight. Homes with heavy smoke, chemical exposure, or high pollution may need to replace the filter sooner than 5 years.
Replacement Bedroom Machine filters are available right here at Pure Indoor Living, and a low-cost standard pre-filter keeps the main filter cleaner for longer.
Frequently Asked Questions
Should I get the HealthMate, HealthMate Plus, or Bedroom Machine?
Start with what's in your air. The Bedroom Machine is the most complete option, adding a fifth military-grade HEGA carbon-cloth stage on top of full HEPA and carbon filtration, and it's built to run quietly overnight. Choose the HealthMate if your air is mostly allergens, dust, and everyday odors and you want the lowest price. Choose the HealthMate Plus if chemicals and VOCs like formaldehyde are your single biggest concern, since its potassium-iodide carbon is built for those gases.
What is the HEGA carbon cloth, and what does it do?
HEGA stands for High Efficiency Gas Arrestance. It's a military-grade activated-carbon cloth, originally developed for gas and chemical protection, that Austin Air adds as the Bedroom Machine's fifth stage. Where the granular carbon bed traps the bulk of gases and odors, the HEGA cloth adds surface area and catches lighter chemical vapors that a carbon bed alone can let slip past. It's what separates the Bedroom Machine from the HealthMate and gives it the widest gas coverage in the Austin Air range.
Is the Bedroom Machine a true HEPA air purifier?
Yes. The Bedroom Machine uses 60 sq ft of True Medical Grade HEPA, certified to remove 99.97% of airborne particles down to 0.3 microns and 99% down to 0.1 microns. This is genuine medical-grade HEPA, not a "HEPA-type" or "HEPA-like" filter, so it's a strong choice for allergies, asthma, and fine-particle control.
Does it remove odors and chemicals as well as particles?
Yes, that's the point of five stages. On top of the HEPA, it carries more than 780 cubic inches (up to 15 lb) of activated carbon and zeolite, plus the HEGA carbon cloth. Together they adsorb everyday and cooking odors, smoke smell, and VOCs from cleaning products, furniture, and finishes. If chemical VOCs and formaldehyde are specifically your main issue, the HealthMate Plus adds a potassium-iodide carbon aimed right at those gases.
Is it quiet enough to sleep next to?
Yes, that's what it's built for. On low the Bedroom Machine runs at under 50 dB, quiet enough for most people to sleep beside, and many owners like the steady background sound. On high it's louder, about 66 dB, closer to normal conversation, so most people run it low overnight and higher when they want to clear a room quickly.
How often do I replace the filter, and what does it cost?
The Bedroom Machine filter lasts up to 5 years under normal home use, and it replaces as one complete assembly rather than several separate filters. Genuine replacement filters are available here at Pure Indoor Living, and adding a low-cost standard pre-filter helps the main filter last as long as possible.
Does the Bedroom Machine produce ozone?
No. The Bedroom Machine cleans air by mechanical filtration only: prefilters, carbon adsorption, HEGA cloth, and True HEPA. There's no ionizer and no ozone-generating process, which is what you want in a unit built for continuous overnight use in a bedroom.
Does it arrive assembled, and what's the warranty?
Yes. The Bedroom Machine ships as a single assembled unit on casters, ready to plug in and run. It's backed by Austin Air's 5-year mechanical warranty and a 5-year pro-rated filter warranty, which is one of the longest coverage terms in the category.
Is this a medical device?
No. The Austin Air Bedroom Machine is a residential and commercial air purifier for general indoor air quality. It's not a medical device and isn't intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease or health condition.
