Overview

Winix builds this replacement set for its own air purifiers, pairing a True HEPA filter with an activated carbon layer. Air passes through the carbon stage first, which traps odors and volatile compounds, then through the HEPA media that catches fine particles. Both filters ship together as one annual change.

Replacing both stages at once lets odor control and particle capture work as a pair, since a spent carbon layer lets smells pass even when the HEPA media still looks clean. The set is tied to three purifier models, so a different Winix unit needs a different filter number.

Who it's for

Households running one of the three supported Winix purifiers through cooking, pet or smoke odors will find the carbon stage does the odor work while the HEPA layer handles fine dust. Owners of any other purifier model should look for the filter number printed for their unit.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Genuine Winix replacement set
  • HEPA and carbon stages in one box
  • Captures particles as small as 0.01 microns
  • Reduces cooking, pet and smoke odors
Cons
  • Fits only three Winix models
  • Floor area rating not stated for the filter

Performance notes

Odor removal depends on the carbon layer, which adsorbs gases until its surface is spent, while particle capture depends on the HEPA media loading with dust. Running both stages together slows that loading and holds airflow closer to the purifier's design.

Frequently asked questions

How often should the Winix Filter Q set be replaced?

The set is described as a one year filter set, so plan on changing both filters together once a year. Heavy cooking, pets or smoke can shorten that interval.

Do both filters in the set get changed at the same time?

Yes. The box includes the HEPA filter and the carbon filter, and the carbon layer is designed to catch odors first so the HEPA media lasts longer.

What does the carbon filter actually remove?

It reduces volatile organic compounds and household odors from cooking, pets and smoke, while the HEPA stage captures particles as small as 0.01 microns.

Will this filter set fit a Winix purifier other than the 5510, 5520 or 5530?

No. The genuine Filter Q is compatible only with the Winix 5510, 5520 and 5530 units, so check the model on your purifier before ordering.

Is this a complete air purifier or just the filters?

It is a replacement filter set only. The package contains the HEPA filter and the carbon filter, with no purifier unit included.
