  • Sleep Mode (features): IQAir Atem X — No; Levoit Vital 200S-P — Yes.
  • Timer (features): IQAir Atem X — No (The user manual documents no timer on the control panel or in the app: everything time-based is handled by app schedules.); Levoit Vital 200S-P — Yes (On-device timer button, and 1 to 24 hour timers in the VeSync app.).
  • Activated Carbon (filtration): IQAir Atem X — No (The Atem X HyperHEPA Filter Set is particle filtration only, and IQAir offers no activated carbon or gas-phase cartridge for this model. Gas and odor filtration is the job of IQAir's GC series.); Levoit Vital 200S-P — Yes.

Specifications to check side by side
  • Filter Life (filtration): IQAir Atem X — 3 years (IQAir rates the three HyperHEPA HF filters at up to 36 months. The filters carry RFID tags, so the purifier tracks each one's remaining life from real pollutant levels and fan speed rather than from a fixed calendar.); Levoit Vital 200S-P — 1 year.
  • Hepa Filter (filtration): IQAir Atem X — YES (HyperHEPA) (Three HyperHEPA HF filters, rated by IQAir at 99.5% or better for airborne particles down to 0.003 microns.); Levoit Vital 200S-P — Yes (3-stage filtration whose main filter traps particles as small as 0.3 microns. Levoit states the original filter is HEPA-grade while running in Sleep Mode.).
  • CADR (performance): IQAir Atem X — 415 CFM (The AHAM certified directory of October 2023 lists the Atem X with a tobacco smoke CADR of 415, a dust CADR of 436, a pollen CADR of 450 and an optional PM2.5 CADR of 425. IQAir's own airflow per fan speed runs 65, 115, 162, 206, 265, 324, 383 and 471 cfm.); Levoit Vital 200S-P — 250 CFM.
  • Coverage Area (performance): IQAir Atem X — 644 sq ft (AHAM certified room size, derived under ANSI/AHAM AC-1. IQAir also markets the Atem X for rooms up to 1650 sq ft (154 m²), a figure at a lower air-change rate.); Levoit Vital 200S-P — 388 sq ft.
