FAQs – Home&Pet Air Purifier

1.After turning on the air purifier, the airflow is normal, but pet odors (e.g., body odor, urine smell, feces smell) cannot be effectively removed. What are the reasons?

A: The core reason is that the activated carbon filter​ is saturated or the purification mode is improperly selected.

Troubleshooting steps:

① First, inspect the filter: If the activated carbon filter has been used for over 3–6 months, or has a large amount of pet hair attached to its surface, immediately replace it with an original factory activated carbon filter​ (it is recommended to pair it with a pet-specific deodorizing filter, which can boost deodorization efficiency by 50%).

② Switch to the “Pet High-Power Deodorization Mode,” close doors and windows to keep the room sealed, and enhance purification efficiency.

 

2.After the air purifier runs for a period, there is still a lot of pet hair indoors that is not effectively adsorbed. What should I do?

A: The main causes are clogging of the primary filter, inadequate airflow setting, or the air inlet​ being covered by pet hair.

Troubleshooting steps:

① Remove the primary filter, rinse it with clean water (it is reusable) or clean surface hair with a vacuum cleaner, dry it, and reinstall.

② Switch to the “High-Power Dust Removal Mode” and ensure the air inlet is unobstructed (e.g., by furniture or pet beds).

③ If rollers at the bottom of the unit accumulate a large amount of hair, promptly clean debris from the roller gaps.

 

3.The air purifier displays abnormally high PM2.5 readings, but there is no obvious indoor pollution. What should I do if the readings are inaccurate?

A: Most likely, the sensor probe​ is covered by pet hair or dust, or the sensor calibration​ has failed.

Troubleshooting steps:

① Turn off the power, remove the sensor protective cover, and use a cotton swab to clean debris from the probe surface.

② Follow the product manual to perform sensor calibration (some models support automatic calibration, which requires placing the unit in a ventilated, clean environment for 30 minutes).

③ If the readings remain inaccurate after calibration, contact after-sales service to replace the sensor.

 

4.The pet air purifier doesn’t respond after being turned on—neither blowing air nor lighting up. What are the causes?

A: It falls into two categories: power supply issues​ and unit hardware failures.

Troubleshooting steps:

① Check if the power plug is securely inserted and the power cord is undamaged; test with a different outlet.

② For rechargeable/wireless models: Ensure the battery is fully charged. If the battery life is extremely short and it fails to charge, it may indicate battery aging—contact after-sales for battery replacement.

③ If there’s no response despite normal power supply, it’s most likely a motherboard or motor failure, which requires after-sales repair.

 

5.The air purifier frequently shuts down automatically or turns off shortly after startup, making it unable to run continuously. What is the issue?

A: The main causes are filter clogging triggering overload protection, unit overheating​ (e.g., placed in direct sunlight), or pets accidentally pressing the child lock/pet lock.

Troubleshooting steps:

① Check the filters: If both the primary filter​ and HEPA filter​ are clogged, clean or replace them immediately.

② Move the air purifier to a cool, ventilated area, avoiding direct sunlight and high-temperature environments.

③ Check if the child lock/pet lock​ is enabled on the unit. Press and hold the lock button for 3 seconds to unlock, then restart the device.

 

6.The air blown from the air outlet of the pet air purifier has a slight odor, and the pet exhibits reactions such as sneezing or coughing when approaching. What are the reasons?

A: Most likely, it is due to filter mold growth​ (e.g., used in humid environments) or a new filter with its sealing film unremoved.

Troubleshooting steps:

① If using a new filter: Immediately remove the filter, peel off the surface sealing film, and reinstall it.

② If the filter has been used for an extended period: Check if the filter has mold growth. A moldy filter must be replaced immediately, and the internal air duct​ of the unit should be wiped with a dry cloth.

③ After replacing the filter, run the unit for 1 hour until the odor dissipates completely before allowing the pet to approach.

 

7.After replacing the filter, the pet air purifier still displays a “filter replacement reminder” and the prompt cannot be cleared. What should I do?

A: The reasons are failure to perform the filter reset operation​ as per the manual, or improper filter installation.

Troubleshooting steps:

① Ensure the original factory filter is fully seated in the card slot without looseness.

② Follow the product manual: Press and hold the “filter reset button” for 3–5 seconds until the indicator light turns off (operations may vary slightly by model; refer to the manual).

③ If the prompt persists after resetting, contact after-sales service to inspect the filter sensor. Non-original factory filters may cause sensor failure and reduced purification efficiency.

 

8.Can a filter with a large amount of pet hair attached to its surface be washed with water for reuse?

A: No, it cannot be washed with water for reuse. The filter is made of ultra-fine fiber material; washing it with water will damage the fiber structure, leading to a significant decrease in filtration efficiency.

Troubleshooting steps:

① Use the low-speed setting of a vacuum cleaner to gently suction hair from the filter surface, or gently brush it off with a soft-bristled brush.

② If the filter is saturated (used for over 6–12 months), immediately replace it with an original factory filter.

③The primary filter is washable and reusable. However, the [non-primary] filter and activated carbon filter are disposable consumables​and require regular replacement.
