How does the Zen work?
Like every PerfectAire unit, the Zen washes the air with water. A fan draws room air into the tank, where it passes through water mixed with a PerfectAire solution. Dust and other airborne particles are trapped in the water, and fresher air is released back into the room. With a scented solution, the Zen freshens the room at the same time.
Where does the Zen work best?
- Open-plan living areas: at up to 90m², one Zen can cover a combined lounge and dining area.
- Large bedrooms and children’s rooms: the soft blue light doubles as a night light.
- Home offices and small business spaces: a reception area, consulting room or shared office.
- Anywhere the look matters: the clean, rounded shape suits modern interiors.

How much power does the Zen use?
The Zen is rated at 13W. Running it for eight hours uses about 0.1kWh, and running it all day uses about 0.3kWh, so it costs very little to leave on.
Which colour should you choose?
- Zen White: bright and fresh, easy to place in light, modern rooms.
- Zen Dove Grey: softer and more understated, good against darker furniture or wood.
How to set up your Zen
- Fill the tank with 1.5 litres of cold tap water.
- Add 5 to 15ml of PerfectAire solution. One full lid is about 3 teaspoons.
- Switch it on and place it where air can flow freely around it.
- Change the water and solution about every three days, or more often in dusty or smoky rooms.

Looking after your Zen
- Wash the tank by hand in cool water. Hot water and dishwashers can shrink the plastic.
- In hard-water areas, clean more often, as lime can build up and strain the motor.
- If your unit needs a deeper clean, we offer a professional unit cleaning service.
