At a glance
Who it's for
Large living rooms and open-plan spaces that need real air-cleaning power.
The standout number
Smoke CADR of 518 — the number that decides how fast it clears wildfire smoke and fine particles.
The catch
Check the filter type before you buy if odor control matters to you.
What size room does the Fellowes AeraMax SV cover?
AHAM certifies it for rooms up to 803 sq ft. In a room that size it cleans the air about 4.8 times an hour on its top speed (our math: 518 smoke CADR x 60 / the room volume, with 8-foot ceilings). In a room half that size (402 sq ft) it would clean the air about 9.7 times an hour.
How much does the Fellowes AeraMax SV filter cost, and how often do you change it?
The maker says: “replace the Combination Filter when the screen is flashing "END" or approximately every 24 months under normal usage conditions.” Maker source.
How do you reset the filter light on the Fellowes AeraMax SV?
The maker's manual says: “6. To reset the filter timer once a Filter is installed: a. Be sure that drawer is closed. b. Turn on the unit. c. Press the LOCK and TIMER buttons at the same time for 3 seconds. This will make the display stop saying "END" and reset the filter life timer.” Maker source: AeraMax SV Air Purifier manual (Fellowes).

Frequently asked questions
How big a room does the Fellowes AeraMax SV cover?
AHAM suggests it for a room up to 803 square feet. That rating assumes it runs on high and cleans the air about 4.8 times an hour. For faster cleaning — say for wildfire smoke or allergies — size it to a smaller room than the maximum.
What is the CADR of the Fellowes AeraMax SV?
Its AHAM Clean Air Delivery Rate is 512 for dust, 518 for smoke and 450 for pollen, with a PM2.5 CADR of 514. CADR is cubic feet of clean air delivered per minute — higher clears a room faster.
Does the Fellowes AeraMax SV use a real HEPA filter?
The AHAM listing does not publish the filter type for this unit.
How much power does the Fellowes AeraMax SV use?
Power draw isn't published for this unit.
Where can I buy the Fellowes AeraMax SV?
It's a retail unit — we matched its Amazon listing, linked on this page, so you can check the current price and seller. The replacement filters are the recurring cost — check those before you commit to a brand.
Sources. Clean Air Delivery Rate (dust / smoke / pollen), PM2.5 CADR, suggested room size, ENERGY STAR status and power draw come from the AHAM Verifide air-cleaner directory (the industry's independent CADR test). Average CADR, clean-air-per-watt and the percentile figures are computed by Verified HVAC Data from those published ratings. We publish no star ratings and take no payment for placement. "Not published" means AHAM's record doesn't disclose it — we never fill a spec with a guess.
