DefendAir HEPA 500 Air Scrubber

The DefendAir HEPA 500 is a professional-grade portable HEPA air scrubber and negative air machine designed specifically for the restoration industry — a machine built to handle the airborne contamination that water damage, mould remediation, and fire restoration generates. Using HEPA filter media with 99.97% efficiency against 0.3-micron particles, the HEPA 500 captures mould spores, bacteria, dust, smoke particles, and fine contaminants from the air as fast as high-velocity air movers generate and distribute them.

The optional Activated Carbon Filter adds a second stage that actively neutralises smoke odours, VOCs, and noxious gases — essential on fire and smoke restoration jobs where odour control is as important as particulate capture. When configured as a negative air machine — using the ducted exhaust to vent filtered air outside the containment zone — the HEPA 500 maintains negative pressure inside the remediation area, preventing contaminated air from migrating into unaffected building areas through doorways, ceiling spaces, and HVAC systems. The HEPA 500 is specifically designed to make the restorer’s job easier, faster, and more profitable — with practical features that support both air quality compliance and client confidence throughout the restoration process.

Versatile air scrubber and negative air machine

Get high efficiency air filtration and great versatility in a highly portable package. The DefendAir HEPA 500 combines advanced air scrubbing performance with the features and functions that help to make the restorer’s job easier faster and more profitable.

The DefendAir HEPA 500 uses HEPA filter media with an efficiency rating of 99.97% against 0.3-micron oily aerosol particles. When used with the optional DOP 2nd stage filter the HEPA 500 meets first-pass filtration requirements. The optional Activated Carbon Filter allows users to quickly and effectively attack smoke and other noxious odours in the environment.

Designed for Restoration

The HEPA 500 is ideal for handling indoor air quality needs on every restoration job. Restoration that involves sewage mould or fire damage involves significant amounts of particulates and bad-smelling gasses – a direct result of the damage itself. In a water damage restoration environment the high-velocity airflow needed for drying can stir up particulates that have settled in carpet or on other materials. The HEPA 500 addresses these air-quality issues quickly and effectively helping you to maintain a clean odour-free indoor environment for your technicians – and your customers.
