Operating Principles
The kalado KCA01 filters utilize a 3-stage filtration system to effectively purify the air:
- Stage 1: Pre-Filter
The ultra-fine nylon pre-filter captures large airborne particles such as dust, lint, fibers, pet hair, and pet dander. This initial layer helps to extend the lifespan of the subsequent filters. - Stage 2: H13 True HEPA Filter
The H13 True HEPA filter is highly efficient, capturing at least 99.97% of airborne particles as small as 0.3 microns. This includes common allergens like pollen, dust mites, and mold spores, as well as smoke particles and other fine particulates. - Stage 3: Activated Carbon Filter
The activated carbon filter is designed to absorb various household odors, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and harmful gases. This includes cooking smells, pet odors, smoke, and formaldehyde, leaving the air fresh and clean.

Maintenance
Regular filter replacement is crucial for maintaining the efficiency and effectiveness of your kalado air purifier. The KCA01 filters are not washable and should not be cleaned with water or detergents.
- Replacement Frequency: It is recommended to replace the filters every 2 to 4 months, depending on the air quality in your environment and the frequency of air purifier use. Environments with higher levels of dust, pet dander, or smoke may require more frequent replacement.
- Filter Indicator: Pay attention to your air purifier's filter replacement indicator light. This light will signal when it's time to change the filters.
- Disposal: Dispose of used filters in a sealed plastic bag to prevent the release of trapped pollutants.
Troubleshooting
If you experience issues with your air purifier after filter replacement, consider the following:
- Reduced Airflow: If airflow seems reduced, ensure the filters are installed correctly and the compartment cover is securely closed. Check if the plastic packaging was fully removed from the new filters.
- Persistent Odors: If odors persist, the activated carbon filter may be saturated. Ensure the filter is new and properly installed. In highly polluted environments, more frequent replacement might be necessary.
- Filter Indicator Not Resetting: If the filter replacement indicator light remains on after installing new filters, refer to your air purifier's manual for specific instructions on how to manually reset the filter life counter.
- Unusual Noise: Ensure filters are seated correctly and not obstructing any moving parts. If noise persists, contact kalado customer support.
