This means that if air purifier companies wish to be listed in the AHAM verifide list, they must pay a one-off &#8216;initiation fee&#8217; (approx US$8000), an &#8216;annual basic model fee&#8217; (approx $1500 &#8211; $1000) per year, and a &#8216;volume fee&#8217; of 0.1% charged on every sale of a purifier in the AHAM Verifide list.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In all, these fees can add up to more than $1 per purifier, which in the end is passed on to the air purifier user. By not being a part<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Does that Mean Smart Air Purifiers Aren&#8217;t Certified for CADR or Performance?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>No, Smart Air purifiers are still tested and certified for CADR performance. CADR values for Smart Air&#8217;s purifiers can be found on <a href=\"https:\/\/smartairfilters.com\/en\/shop\/\">our shop<\/a>. 3rd party, independently verified CADR test reports are also available from Smart Air.<\/p>\n<div class='pauple-helpie-module article-voting'><span class='label'>Was this article useful?<\/span><span data-post-id='5744' data-user-id='0' class='icon-tray'><span  data-vote='thumbs up outline' class=' voting-icon thumbs up outline '><i data-content='thumbs up outline' class='thumbs up outline outline icon' aria-hidden='true'><\/i><count>1<\/count><\/span><span  data-vote='thumbs down outline' class=' voting-icon thumbs down outline '><i data-content='thumbs down outline' class='thumbs down outline outline icon' aria-hidden='true'><\/i><count>2<\/count><\/span><\/span><\/div><div style='clear:both;'><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Knowledge Base &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;Smart Air Purifiers &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;Why Can&#8217;t I Find Smart Air Purifiers in the AHAM Verifide List?
