REPORT NO. 103639734CRT-001

RENDERED TO:

HoMedics USA, LLC 3000 North Pontiac Trail

Commerce Township, MI 48390-2720

Report Scope: This testing is for AHAM AC-1 and EPA Energy Star program for

Room Air Cleaners. Limitation Statement: The test data and results contained in this report are provided for

client information and evaluation. Authorization: The tests were authorized by signed Quote No. QU-00911540

dated August 22, 2018. Standards Used: ANSI/AHAM AC-1-2015 entitled, "Association of Home Appliance

Manufacturers Method for Measuring Performance of Portable Household Electric Room Air Cleaners" and IEC 62301 Ed. 2 entitled, “Household Electrical Appliances – Measurement of Standby Power”

Sample Description: One proto-type unit of model AP-T40 was supplied by the client

and received on August 23, 2018. The filters were supplied by the client and received on September 7, 2018.

Date of Tests: September 11, 2018

Test Method: Tests were performed in accordance with ANSI/AHAM AC-1-2015 entitled ""Association of Home Appliance Manufacturers Method for Measuring Performance of Portable Household Electric Room Air Cleaners". This standard method has defined limits of measurability. The practical limits of measurability are: Dust 10 to 400 CADR, Tobacco smoke 10 to 450 CADR and Pollen 25 to 450 CADR. The statistical validity of test results outside of the stated practical limits is questionable and unevaluated. Clean Air Delivery Rates (CADR's) were determined using Tobacco Smoke, AC Fine Test Dust, and Paper Mulberry Pollen. Additional requirements for energy taken from IEC 62301 Ed. 2 entitled, “Household Electrical Appliances – Measurement of Standby Power”. Monitored particle size ranges for the three particulates were as follows: Smoke - 0.10-1.0 microns; Dust - 0.5-3 microns; Pollen - 5-11 microns. Test Equipment List:
