Description

As a water-damaged room dries, mold spores and fine dust get into the air and can drift into the rest of the building. The Dri-Eaz Defendair 700 HEPA Air Scrubber pulls them out with True HEPA filtration. When a job calls for negative-pressure containment, its lay-flat duct port lets you set that up.

If you run a rental fleet or a restoration company, the Defendair fits the gear you already own. It is dimensionally identical to the Dri-Eaz HEPA 700, so it slots into your current storage and stacking setup. Dri-Eaz engineers and assembles it in Burlington, Washington.

Key Features and Benefits of the Dri-Eaz Defendair 700 HEPA Air Scrubber

True HEPA Filtration: Captures 99.99 percent of particles from 0.1 to 0.5 microns, including mold spores and dust, and passes DOP tests with no additional filters.
Variable Speed Dial: A manual On/Off variable speed dial sets airflow anywhere from 275 to 700 CFM, and needs no app or hub to pair.
Negative Pressure Ducting: A 14-inch lay-flat duct port and up to 3.0 inches of static pressure let you push air through ducting to direct airflow and hold containment.
GFCI Daisy-Chaining: An onboard 12-amp GFCI outlet lets you daisy-chain up to four air scrubbers on low from one 15-amp circuit, so you use fewer outlets.
Low Power Draw: Draws just three amps and up to 350 watts on 115-volt, 60 Hz power, leaving room on your job-site circuits for other equipment.
Occupied-Space Operation: Rated at 70 dB, this air scrubber runs quietly enough to keep cleaning the air in occupied homes and offices.
2-Stage Filtration: A 2-inch MERV 8 prefilter protects the primary HEPA filter, and a red indicator light tells you when filters need changing.
ETL Safety Listing: It is ETL listed to UL 507 and CSA C22.2 No. 113, so you can deploy it on job sites that require certified electrical equipment.
Stackable 41-Pound Build: At 41 pounds, the air scrubber stacks securely for compact storage and transport, and its rugged housing carries a lifetime warranty.
Color Options: Choose Blue, Red, or Black so you can tell fleets or crews apart at a glance.

Will the Defendair 700 Fit Your Job Site?

The Defendair measures 17 x 25.9 x 22.8 inches (L x W x H), so it fits into a corner without taking over the work area. The manufacturer suggests it for rooms up to 875 square feet, so on larger jobs you can link two or more machines in a daisy chain. Its 25-foot power cord lets you place the air scrubber where the airflow matters most, not just next to the outlet. The included HEPA filter measures 20.5 x 18 x 3.5 inches (L x W x H), the same size as the HEPA 700 uses.

Sylvane's Expert Take

If you're a restoration contractor or you manage a rental fleet, this air scrubber fits mold and water damage jobs where you need containment without hauling extra gear. The detail worth knowing is that it passes DOP testing on its standard filters, so you can confirm containment without adding stages. We especially like the variable dial and the daisy-chain outlet, because together they let one circuit power a full room setup. Every variant shares identical specs, so the choice comes down to how you organize your fleet.
