Air Scrubbers

Shop the Best Selection of Air Scrubbers For Sale Online

Keep your workplace clean and stay compliant with the #1 selection of air scrubber for sale at USCleaningTools.com. 

These systems suck in contaminated air through a multi-stage HEPA filter stack and force clean air back into the space. They’re absolutely essential for abatement and restoration jobs, as these working environments can send hazards into the air that trigger OSHA exposure limits and IICRC S520 requirements.

You’ll find the top models from the most well-respected brands the industry has to offer - Abatement Technologies, XPOWER, Aerospace America, and Novatek. 

We carry units up to 4,000 CFM if you need a commercial air scrubber, or explore our mini air scrubber options for crawlspaces or occupied rooms. There’s a scrubber for every application here in our online storefront. Some units even have Bluetooth monitoring and UV-C technology! Every machine ships with HEPA filtration and comes protected by a full manufacturer's warranty. 

Restoration contractors trust us because we provide world-class customer service from A to Z to back up the machines themselves. Whether you need help sizing your equipment or choosing between models, don’t hesitate to reach out for one-on-one support. Give us your room dimensions and job type for a personalized recommendation!

Choosing the Right Air Scrubber for Your Job

• Size CFM to the room, not the machine: Target 4 to 6 air changes per hour. Multiply room volume in cubic feet by your target ACH and divide by 60. A 2,000 sq ft space with 8 ft ceilings lands around 1,100 to 1,600 CFM.
• Confirm the filtration stack: Asbestos and lead work require true HEPA rated 99.97% at 0.3 microns. A pre-filter and carbon stage ahead of the HEPA extends filter life on smoke and odor jobs.
• Decide negative air or recirculation: Containment work needs a duct collar to exhaust outside the barrier. Odor control in an occupied room runs the same machine recirculating.
• Check amp draw before you build a fleet: Multi-day restoration jobs run several units on one circuit. Add up amps per unit against the available breaker before committing.
• Match the footprint to site access: Crawlspaces and occupied rooms need a mini scrubber that clears a 24 inch opening. Open warehouse work takes the 2,000 CFM and larger frames.

Frequently asked questions

What does the air scrubber do?

It pulls contaminated air into a filtration stack to send clean air back into the workspace. The HEPA stage captures 99.97% of particles at 0.3 microns after the pre-filter traps larger debris.

What's the difference between an air purifier and an air scrubber?

Air purifiers run at a really low CFM, and they do great for catching everyday allergens in occupied rooms (bedrooms, offices, etc.). An air scrubber is specifically designed for hazardous particles in active job sites. They are bigger and more sophisticated on the filtration side of things. Some even create negative pressure within sealed containment zones. 

Do air scrubbers really work?

Yes. They’re non-negotiable in some applications, in fact. OSHA requires HEPA filtration and negative-pressure containment on many asbestos and lead abatement jobs because these machines work. See air scrubbers for asbestos.

Do air scrubbers get rid of mold?

They won’t kill mold that’s actively growing on a surface, but an air scrubber for mold can pull airborne particles and trap them within the filter. This is how you keep spore counts down while your crew actually addresses the source of the mold, providing safe working conditions. 

Do air scrubbers get rid of dust?

Yes. We are the #1 choice for an air scrubber for construction dust. We recommend you size the unit’s CFM to your room volume for at least four air changes per hour.

How to choose an air scrubber?

You have to figure out your room’s cubic footage first. Then multiply it by the air changes per hour your job requires (IICRC S520 minimum is 4 ACH, most contractors run 6 anyway) and divide by 60. That’s the CFM to shop for. Then it’s just a matter of matching voltage and portability to your job site.

What is the best air scrubber on the market?

All depends on the specific application, but you can rest assured our selection of air scrubbers for sale is second to none. We’ve handpicked every model from the industry’s most well-regarded brands - Abatement Technologies, XPOWER, Aerospace America, and Novatek. Reach out for a personalized recommendation. 

How much should an air scrubber cost?

A professional HEPA air scrubber can cost you anywhere from $500ish to well over $3,500 depending on brand, size, and features. Small price to pay for compliance and peace of mind, though.  

Is an air scrubber worth the money?

Yes. It’s an investment you have to make for certain industries and applications. Non-compliance with OSHA or IICRC standards will cost you a lot more in the long run. Purchasing your own equipment saves you money from frequent renting, too. 

How often should you run an air scrubber?

Continuously during active work. IICRC S520 mandates negative pressure throughout the entire project. Keep the unit on until you’ve confirmed (through clearance testing) that particle counts are back within a safe range. 

Where to put an air scrubber?

It should go directly in the containment zone for negative air applications. The ducting should exhaust filtered air outside the barrier. You have more leeway with general air cleaning applications - just put it where it draws from the most contaminated area of the room. 

How long does it take for an air scrubber to work?

You’ll see airborne particle counts falling within minutes of turning on your unit - assuming it’s properly sized and positioned, of course. Think about it like this: if you do 6 air changes per hour, a 2,000 CFM machine cycles a 20,000 cubic foot space every 10 minutes. 

How are air scrubbers installed?

Just plug the unit in, connect ducting if you’re exhausting bad air out of the containment area, and turn it on. You’ll want to seal the containment barrier first and route exhaust ducting properly for negative-air setups, though.
