Which rooms it suits
Everyday: AHAM's room size. Smog: AHAM's advice for smoke, a CADR at least equal to the floor area in ft².
| Room | Everyday | Smog days |

| Living room · 30 m² (323 ft²) | ||
| Large room · 50 m² (538 ft²) |
Our take
The Vital 100S is the Vital 200S scaled down for a bedroom. It keeps the pet-owner details, a washable pre-filter that catches hair before it reaches the HEPA layer and a pet mode that runs the fan harder, and adds a dust sensor, auto mode and app control.
Its AHAM room size of 222 ft² (about 21 m²) puts it alongside the Core 300S; pick the Vital if you have pets, the Core if you want the smallest footprint.

Questions about the Vital 100S
- What size room does the Levoit Vital 100S cover?
- About 222 ft² (21 m²). That's AHAM's room size for its smoke CADR of 143 cfm: the floor area, with an 8 ft ceiling, whose air it cleans about every 12.5 minutes.
- Is the Levoit Vital 100S enough for smog?
- For smoke and heavy smog AHAM suggests a smoke CADR at least equal to the floor area in square feet. By that measure the Levoit Vital 100S keeps up with a room of about 143 ft² (13 m²). Keep the windows shut and run it on high while the AQI is bad.
- Vital 100S or Vital 200S?
- A similar design and features; the 200S moves more clean air (250 against about 143 cfm smoke CADR), so it suits a room of about 36 m² rather than 21 m².
How we judge. We haven't tested the Vital 100S in a lab of our own. The figures come from independent ratings (AHAM, Energy Star, NIOSH, the ASPCA) or the maker, and the verdict is ours, from those figures. No brand pays to be listed. Last checked Nov 7, 2026.
