Changing the filter on a Levoit LV-H200S air purifier is essential for maintaining optimal performance and ensuring that the air in your environment stays clean. Here’s a step-by-step guide to
replacement the Levoit Vital 200s filter, along with additional tips to help you maintain your air purifier.
Step 1: Power Off and Unplug the Unit
Before changing the filter on your Levoit LV-H200S, it’s important to ensure your safety. Always power off the device and unplug it from the electrical outlet. This step prevents any potential electrical accidents and ensures you can safely handle the unit during the replacement process.
Step 2: Remove the Filter Cover
Once the device is powered off and unplugged, you will need to remove the filter cover. On the Levoit LV-H200S, this is typically located at the base of the unit. Simply twist the cover counterclockwise or use the release mechanism (depending on your model) to unlock and remove the cover. Be gentle to avoid damaging any components.
Step 3: Take Out the Old Filter
After removing the cover, you will have access to the filter inside. Carefully pull out the old filter by gripping the top and bottom. Be cautious during this step, as the used filter may contain dust, allergens, and other pollutants. It is recommended to dispose of the old filter in a sealed plastic bag to prevent dust from being released back into the air.
Step 4: Clean the Filter Compartment
Before inserting a new filter, it is a good practice to clean the filter compartment of the air purifier. Use a dry cloth to wipe away any dust or debris that may have accumulated in the compartment. This step helps to ensure that the new filter operates efficiently and extends its lifespan.
Step 5: Insert the New Filter
Now, take your new Levoit LV-H200S filter out of its packaging. Make sure to remove any plastic wrapping around the filter, as operating the device with the plastic wrap still on can damage both the filter and the purifier. Once unwrapped, insert the filter into the compartment, ensuring that it is properly aligned and seated.
Step 6: Replace the Filter Cover
After the new filter is securely in place, reattach the filter cover by twisting it back into its original position or snapping it into place. Make sure it is fully closed to avoid any gaps that could allow unfiltered air to pass through the unit.
Step 7: Reset the Filter Indicator
Most Levoit air purifiers, including the LV-H200S, come with a filter change indicator that will alert you when it’s time to replace the filter. After installing the new filter, you will need to reset this indicator. To do so, hold the filter reset button (often located on the control panel) for a few seconds until the light turns off. This will reset the timer for the next filter change.
Step 8: Power On the Device
Once everything is back in place and the filter indicator is reset, you can plug the air purifier back into the outlet. Turn the device on, and it will begin operating with the new filter, ensuring that your space is receiving clean, purified air.
Filter Replacement Frequency
It’s important to change the filter regularly to maintain optimal performance. The frequency at which you need to replace the filter depends on the air quality in your environment and how frequently you use the purifier. Typically, the filter should be replaced every 6 to 8 months, but this can vary.
