The Blueair 405 SmokeStop air purifier is part of the latest range of air purifiers from Blueair and has been released in January 2017. It is the follow up model of the 450E. The Blueair 405 SmokeStop has an improved airflow rate of up to 15% on the highest speed setting compared to the previous model providing an airflow rate of 547 m3/h compared tp 475 m3/h. One of the new features of the Blueair 405 SmokeStop is its Wi-Fi connectablility, allowing you to connect to the air purifier via your phone and Wi-Fi network and make adjustments to how it operates. With the Blueair 405 SmokeStop, you get a new ‘hidden’ display with touch buttons which is located under a flip-up lid on top of the unit. The size, weight, overall look and the filtration technology used however, is exactly the same.
The Blueair 405 SmokeStop would be a good choice for medium sized environments and can be used at night time with its low fan settings.
The Blueair 405 SmokeStop is able to be paired with the ‘Blueair Aware’ air quality monitor and then set to auto mode so that the fans can adjust based on the levels of contamination detected by the sensor in the Blueair Aware.

The Blueair 405 SmokeStop uses Blueair’s typical Three-Stage Progressive Filter – a filter that resembles having several filters in one. The filter is made up out of three different levels of millions of ultra-thin fibres, and with its ‘lock-in’ design, captures and retains particles. The first layers of the filter capture larger particles like pollen and dust and the later layers capture smaller particles like bacteria and exhaust particles.
Regular air purifier filters are thinner and consist of the same fibre size and material throughout. This leads to filters being loaded sooner and either losing efficiency or requiring to be replaced. However, the unique design of the Blueair 405 SmokeStop Three-Stage Progressive Filter requires you to replace the filter only twice a year.
When the filter of the Blueair 405 SmokeStop needs to be replaced, just open the side door, and take out the old filter like you would take a book out of a bookshelf, then simply replace it with a fresh filter. No screws, hooks or tools are needed and replacing the filter only takes a couple of seconds.
The Blueair 405 SmokeStop filters consist of non-toxic polypropylene media that is 100% free of harmful triclosan and glass fibres. The 1kg of gas filtration media consist of activated carbon with magnesium dioxide and copper oxide impregnation.
