Review
The Turonic PH950 air purifier is quite an interesting machine. Let’s see why is that.
First off, it has an incredibly sophisticated cleaning system that includes:
- Washable pre-filter;
- Combined HEPA H13 and antibacterial filter;
- Combined charcoal and cold catalyst filter;
- UV Light;
- Ionizer;
Such cleaning system ensures capturing of any kind of harmful particle in the air, including dust, smoke, viruses and bacteria down to 0.1 micron in size.
The air purifier works in 3 modes: manual, auto and sleep. You can either manually switch between 8 speeds, or let it run in auto mode which adjust the speed based on the air quality indoor. The sleep mode turns on automatically if there is not enough light in a room.
The Turonic PH950 air purifier is also features WiFi capabilities and can be controlled via app.
Lastly, this air cleaner has a built-in humidifier. If you are worried about the air in your room getting too dry, with the PH950 you won’t have such problems in any way.
When it comes to noise, the Turonic PH950 is far away from being quiet, let alone “silent”. This unit produces 36 decibels on the lowest speeds and can reach up to 60 or even 65 decibels at the maximum speed.
Suitable Room Size for Turonic PH950 Air Purifier
The Turonic PH950 air doesn’t have an official CADR, similarly to the Shark air purifiers. Thankfully, we can determine it by ourselves using this CADR calculator. It gives us airflow of 167 cubic feet per minute (CFM) and using this number it’s easy-peasy to determine room coverage with this air changes per hour calculator.
| Room size | How long it takes to clean room | ACH |
| 210 sq. ft. | 10 minutes | 6 |
| 310 sq. ft. | 15 minutes | 4 |
| 620 sq. ft. | 30 minutes | 2 |
| 1250 sq. ft. | 1 hour | 1 |
So what does this table tells us? Taking into account that allergic sufferers require at least 4 ACH per hour, we can determine that the Turonic PH950 air purifier can cover an area of 310 square feet.
If a person doesn’t have any breathing conditions, then the minimum ACH rating should be 2 at least. That gives us 620 square feet of space this air cleaner can cover.

Wrapping Up
Is Turonic PH950 worth the cost? Depends on your needs.
NOT if:
- You need an air purifier for 1200 square feet. This air cleaner simply does not have enough power to circulate air in large rooms and spaces.
- You suffer from allergy in 600 or so sq. ft. space. In this case I can recommend getting the AirHeath Skye air purifier.
- You are not looking for a humidifier.
- You are tight on money. In this case I can recommend you the Winix PlasmaWave 5500-2 or Coway Mighty air purifier.
- You are too sensitive to noise.
YES if:
- You are a fan of smart features and easy access to controls with a remote and app.
- You have a room smaller than 600 sq. ft. which requires air cleaning.
- You need an air purifier that can deal with various pollutants, including viruses and bacteria.
