8 Best HEPA Air Purifiers in Singapore for Haze (2026): Prices From $180, Re-checked 12 September as the PSI Eases

The $129 Compact EPU1110B that held this slot for six weeks is gone. On 12 September its product page returns a 404, and the model is absent from both EuropAce's full 252-product feed and the brand's sitemap; the only trace left in the catalogue is the $49 replacement filter, which is the same pattern that preceded the ZenFresh Aroma's disappearance in August. EuropAce's remaining clearance purifier is the PLAY Series EPU3320C at **$199 against a $459 list price**, and on specifications it is the better machine anyway: a dual HEPA-13 stack rather than a single filter, 220m³/h CADR against the Compact's 110, and a 460 sq ft rating that covers a large bedroom or a small living room rather than one small room. It keeps the built-in ioniser, a real-time air-quality light and a numeric PM2.5 display, adds a filter-change reminder and a 12-hour timer, and carries the desk-toy extras the range is named for: a Bluetooth 5.0 speaker, a wireless phone charging pad, adjustable LED ambience lighting and an aromatherapy box. Whether you want a purifier that also charges your phone is a matter of taste, but none of it costs you filtration. The catch is colour: **Black has sold out and only Pink is still listed**, so if the colour matters this is not your machine. This is the cheapest unit in the guide you can have delivered this week, since novita's $180 A5i is not dispatching until 23 September.

The FP-J30E at $149 against $214 was this guide's ion-tech bedroom pick for six weeks. On 12 September Sharp's own store shows it **out of stock on both its standard and its staff-purchase listings**, with the price unchanged, which is how this model has behaved before: it is a recurring sell-out rather than a discontinuation, so it is worth a watch rather than a write-off. The Mid Autumn Sale that replaced the National Day Sale is still running with no published end date, and the rest of Sharp's air-care range is very much in stock, which is why this entry stays. The two that matter: the **KI-N50E-H Plasmacluster humidifying purifier at $559 (U.P. $1,063)**, rated for 38m², with 4 units showing, which is the best-value mid-size machine on this list once you account for the humidifier; and the **FX-S120E-H at $799 (U.P. $1,595)**, the only unit in this guide rated for a full 84m², showing 6 units on the Mid Autumn listing and 2 more on the plain one. Sharp has also added a 62m² Purefit at $699 (U.P. $744) that was not here on our last check, though the discount on it is thin. Two to skip for now: the Purefit Mini FP-S42E-L, which came back into stock at $349 on 4 September and has sold out again, and the 16L 2-in-1 dehumidifier-purifier at $509, still unavailable. What you are buying from Sharp beyond the HEPA is Plasmacluster, which releases ions into the room to work on odours that have settled into curtains and sofas, and during a haze episode that is the part people notice.

This listing has now flipped three times. It was sold out on our 4 and 16 August checks, came back on 27 August and held through 4 September, and on 12 September Tefal's own Singapore store reports it **unavailable again**, with the price unchanged at $149 against a $249 list. That pattern is the useful information here: Tefal restocks this model rather than retiring it, so if the specification suits you it is worth setting a reminder rather than substituting something worse. What you would be waiting for is a genuinely well-specified bedroom machine: 198m³/h CADR, which is nearly double the 110m³/h the delisted EuropAce Compact managed at a similar price, three-layer filtration with a dedicated Allergy+ layer and activated carbon, three automatic modes, and 2.3kg of weight, which matters if you plan to carry one machine between a bedroom and a study. Filters are the running cost to check before you commit, and Tefal's are on the higher side of this guide's $39 to about $99 a year band. Until it returns, the closest in-stock equivalents here are EuropAce's PLAY Series at $199 or, if you can wait until 23 September, novita's A5i at $180.

The sensible answer if you're short on floor space or were about to buy a tower fan anyway, and the pick that has held its ground while four others moved against buyers: the $79 cut Mayer made on 27 August, from $388 to **$309** against a $599 list price, is still in place on 12 September and the unit is still in stock. Sold through Mayer's own Singapore store, this 46-inch blade-free tower combines a DC-motor fan with HEPA-13 filtration rated to remove up to 99.97% of particles down to 0.3 microns, plus UV sterilisation and a filter-replacement indicator. Five air modes (auto, turbo, sleep, natural, normal) and auto left-right oscillation across 30/60/90/120°. At $309 against $599 it is only $9 more than Sterra's per-unit bundle price and it undercuts Dyson's discounted TP10 by $190 for the same fan-plus-purifier job, which is what makes it the best value in this guide right now. During haze, when you want windows shut and air still circulating, having the fan and the filter in one machine genuinely helps. Replacement HEPA-13 filters are $39, the cheapest on this list. The stablemate MBFAP500 (12 speeds, built-in ioniser, HEPA H13, baby and sleep modes) has itself come down from $399 to **$339** (U.P. $599) since our last check, with a $50 filter. Mayer also sells two cheaper Mistral purifiers most roundups skip: the smart MAPF32 at $249.90 (U.P. $298) and the smaller MBFAP250 blade-free tower at $299 (U.P. $399). The MAPF03 we listed at $149.90 last time has been repriced to $99 (U.P. $228) but is now sold out.

The Singapore brand most people's parents already own, and the one with the easiest service story: local warranty, local service centre, filters you can actually buy off the shelf. **The A18i we led this entry with has sold out completely.** It showed a single unit on each of its two listings on 4 September; on 12 September both the $398 trade-in page and the $458 outright page report no stock at all, so the $501 saving that was the largest single discount in this guide is gone for now. What replaced it at the top of novita's range is the opposite kind of news. **The A5i is back at $180 against a $328 list price**, in both Space Black and Atrium White, which makes it the cheapest machine in this entire guide, undercutting EuropAce's $199 PLAY Series by $19. It is a genuine H13 HEPA with a carbon stage rated at 337m³/h CADR, which is more airflow than anything else here under $300 and comfortably enough for a large bedroom or a small living room. The catch is the one that matters during an episode: novita's own listing says delivery or collection is **from 23 September onwards**, so this is a machine you buy for the next bad week, not this one. The A11i sits just above it at $258 in Arctic White ($268 in Sand Beige or Graphite Black) against $469, or **$198 with any old purifier traded in**, and its delivery date has firmed up from a vague end-September to 22 September. If humidity is the bigger issue in your flat, novita's real speciality is 2-in-1 dehumidifier-purifiers, and the ND2+ ($398, U.P. $569) through ND60i+ ($798, U.P. $1,098) range does both jobs from one plug, all of it in stock today. Free delivery on orders over $300, otherwise $12.

The cheapest way to put a purifier in every bedroom at once. Sterra is a Singapore direct-to-consumer brand and one of the most-reviewed purifier names here; the Moon is its best-seller, a HEPA-13 unit rated for 57m² at 280m³/h, near-silent at 20dB, with one-touch control and no app to fight with, listed from $189 on its own. The bundle is where the value is: you pay $458 for two Moons and the third comes free, and it is still buyable on 12 September, though still only in Space Grey. The Snow White bundle remains sold out, exactly as it was on our last check. Read the headline saving carefully, though. Sterra prices that bundle against a $687 'total value', which works out at $229 a unit, not the $189 the Moon starts at on the same site. The genuine saving is one free purifier, not a discount across all three. Two notes from this check. Several single-Moon colour and ion/UV combinations are still out of stock even though the bundle is not, including the Space Grey ion model at $189 and the Snow White UV version at $229, so buy the bundle rather than three singles. And Sterra's cheapest machine, the HEPA-13 Mars at $159, has gone the way of the EuropAce Compact: it is absent from Sterra's product feed entirely on 12 September, with only its $45 replacement filter still listed, so treat it as discontinued. And the Breeze Pro bundle we listed last time has changed: the HEPA-14 Breeze Pro is now $279 for one, $548 for two and $807 for three with no free Mars attached, while the buy-two bundle at $558 (U.P. $677) has moved to Sterra Paws ($279, U.P. $299), the pet-tuned HEPA-14 model, and the free item is a Sterra Flow cordless vacuum rather than a third purifier. Sterra has also added a single Paws plus Flow vacuum bundle at $368 (U.P. $398). Free delivery and installation.

**The discount came back.** This is the most-moved price in the guide: $399 with $200 off on 30 July, $499 with $100 off from 4 to 16 August, then a flat $599 with no saving at all on 27 August. On 4 September, the day the PSI turned Unhealthy, Dyson's own Singapore store went back to **$499, with $599 struck through and 'Save $100' on the page**, and on 12 September it is still there, in stock, with the discount intact. So the tidy story we told last time, that discounts narrow and then get withdrawn as the haze window opens, is wrong: Dyson reinstated the offer at exactly the moment demand arrived. The lesson is narrower than a trend. Check this one page rather than assuming a direction, because it has now changed four times in five weeks. It is still the sealed-filtration pick, though at $499 it costs $190 more than the Mistral tower at #4 for the same two jobs. The TP10 is a 2-in-1 purifying fan with a fully sealed filtration system: a 360° glass HEPA H13 filter that captures 99.95% of particles as small as 0.1 microns, wrapped in an activated carbon layer for gases and odours. Sealed matters here, because what the machine traps stays trapped rather than leaking back out around the filter. Integrated sensors read the air in real time and report on the LCD screen, it oscillates up to 350°, and night mode runs it quietly while you sleep. In stock, with instalments working out to $124.75 a month over four months. If cooling airflow is what you want and $499 is above your line, the Mistral tower at #4 does the same two jobs for $309.

The premium option, and the only one on this list where someone else changes your filters. Coway's Noble AP is the Korean brand's flagship air purifier for Singapore, running multi-stage filtration (a 4D pre-filter, a smoke and allergen filter, a 4D double HEPA and two deodorisation filters) with UV-C sterilisation across 66m², and it comes with the regular servicing visits every six months that are Coway's whole proposition: a technician cleans the unit and swaps consumables so the machine doesn't quietly degrade into an expensive fan. This price has now run backwards. Coway's own air purifier listing still flags the Noble AP as a Special Offer, but the headline has gone back up to **from $1,588** against a $2,038 usual price, where it sat on 16 August, after showing $1,349.80 on both 27 August and 4 September. The $1,349.80 entry price is no longer selectable. The practical effect is that the headline and the configurator now agree: the default outright, self-service, 1+1-year filters-and-warranty build also totals $1,588 at checkout, so the gap we warned about on the last two checks has closed, in the wrong direction. It is a lot of money next to a $199 EuropAce, and for a single bedroom it is overkill. It earns its place if you want a single serviced appliance for a large space and would rather not think about filter part numbers for the next five years.
