The invisible threat

Most people have no idea what they're breathing.

The EPA estimates 70% of US homes have mold growing somewhere. Mold spores are invisible — but our lungs know they're there.

1 in 5

Americans experience mold-related respiratory symptoms every year — from congestion and coughing to serious asthma flares.

70%

of US homes contain measurable mold, according to the EPA. Most homeowners never know it's there.

Respiratory triggers

Mold spores are a leading cause of asthma flare-ups, chronic congestion, and morning headaches in enclosed spaces.

Invisible to the naked eye

Mold spores range from 2–20 microns. Standard filters miss them entirely. HEPA 13 captures 99.95% of particles at 0.3 microns — far smaller than any mold spore.

The Max captures 99.95% of common household mold in 60 minutes.

Independently verified. Real homes. Real mold strains. Real results.

The science

We didn't guess. We tested.

99.95% isn't a marketing number. It's what happened when we put the Max in a room full of Aspergillus mold spores and measured what was left after 60 minutes.

  • Tested at an independent, AHAM-accredited lab — not in-house. Results are verifiable and reproducible.
  • Tested against Aspergillus — the most common mold species found in US homes.
  • HEPA 13 captures 99.95% of particles at 0.3 microns — smaller than any common household mold spore.
  • Activated carbon layer eliminates musty mold odors — so air doesn't just measure clean, it smells clean too.
  • Running 24/7 on auto mode means it continuously clears your air — not just when you remember to turn it on.
How it works

Three stages. One clean room.

01
Pre-filter

Large particles — dust, pet dander, hair — are captured first to protect and extend the deeper filters.

First pass
02
HEPA 13

Medical-grade HEPA 13 traps 99.95% of particles at 0.3 microns — far smaller than any mold spore, which starts at 2 microns.

Core stage
03
Activated carbon

A premium carbon layer absorbs musty mold odors and VOCs. Air doesn't just test clean — it smells clean.

Final stage
04
Room cleared

In 1,950 sq ft, the Max runs a full air cycle every 60 minutes — automatically, quietly, continuously.

60 minutes
What's inside

Built for real homes.

The Windmill advantage

Most purifiers check a spec sheet. The Max was designed to work in real homes — with real mold, real families, real messy lives.

Whisper-quiet sleep mode

At 16 dB, sleep mode is quieter than a library. We'll forget it's on — which is exactly the point.

16 dB
Smart auto mode

Built-in sensors detect rising particle counts and ramp up quietly before we notice a thing. Then settle back down.

Always on
Covers up to 1,950 ft²

Large open-plan rooms, living areas, studios. One Max handles spaces others struggle with at full speed.

AHAM Verified
Filter reminder system

The Max tracks actual usage and tells us when to swap — so we're never running on a spent filter without knowing.

What our neighbors are saying.

★★★★★

"We had mold in our basement that kept triggering my daughter's asthma. Two weeks with the Max running 24/7, her morning coughing stopped. Didn't expect it to work this well."

"Skeptical about the 99.95% claim — it felt like marketing. My air quality monitor proved me wrong. My allergist confirmed my mold spore count dropped significantly."

"Quiet enough for the bedroom. The musty smell from our old apartment is completely gone. We wake up feeling actually rested for the first time in years."

Everything you need to know.

Yes — at an AHAM-accredited third-party laboratory, in controlled conditions. The result reflects capture of Aspergillus mold spores in a standardized 1,950 sq ft test environment over 60 minutes. It's not a manufacturer claim — it's a verified lab result.
Most households replace the filter every 6–8 months with typical use. The Max tracks actual usage and sends a reminder when it's time. Replacement filters are available on our website and through Amazon.
The Max is AHAM certified for rooms up to 1,950 square feet — large open-plan living spaces, studios, and bedrooms with room to spare. The 60-minute full-cycle result is based on this certified coverage area.
Sleep mode runs at 16 dB — quieter than a whisper (30 dB) and well below most competitors at comparable settings. Many customers say they prefer to have it running for the gentle white noise. On auto mode it ramps quietly if it detects elevated particles, then returns to sleep speed.
