Comparison: Dyson HP07 vs HP09 – What are the Differences?

Coverage Area & Efficiency

The HP07 and HP09 have a coverage area of 81 m³ (2860 ft³) when it comes to purification. For heating, Dyson recommends a room size of up to 35 m³ (1236 ft³).

An oscillation angle of up to 350 degrees ensures that the purified air gets projected evenly throughout the room. And if you want purification without cooling, you can simply switch to backward airflow mode.

Clean Air Delivery Rate / Airflow

Removing 99.95% of particles as small as 0.1 microns, both devices also use activated carbon to remove odors and gases including VOCs. The HP07 and HP09 are fully sealed to HEPA H13 standard and therefore reliably keep those captured pollutants inside the machine.

A powerful airflow of 290 liters (77 gallons) of purified air gets projected throughout the room every second. Unfortunately, Dyson does not disclose the CADR for their air purifiers.

Working Noise

On the maximum speed level, the HP07 and HP09 generate a noise level of about 62 decibels (dB). But with the integrated automatic mode, both devices only run as fast and therefore as loud as they need to achieve the desired air quality.

Once pollution levels in your room are back to a healthy standard, the speed gets adjusted accordingly. During the night, you can use sleep mode to limit the maximum speed to Level 4 out of a possible 10 and dim the display (see below).

Sensors & Display

A particulate sensor, gas sensor, and humidity and temperature sensor constantly provide the HP07 and HP09 with all the data needed to run in automatic mode. The HP09 comes with an additional fourth sensor that allows it to detect formaldehyde.

In both devices, a built-in LCD screen displays real-time information about the indoor air quality including the current levels of PM 2.5, PM 10, NO2, VOCs, the temperature, and filter life. The same data can also be viewed on your smartphone (see below).
