Austin Air HealthMate Plus Junior Replacement Filter (FR250)

The FR250 is the genuine Austin Air replacement filter for the compact HealthMate Plus Junior (HM250). It restores the Plus Junior's enhanced 4-stage filtration—Medical-Grade HEPA plus a specialized carbon blend for VOCs, formaldehyde, and chemical odors—in the smaller Junior size. This is a genuine Austin Air filter, sized specifically for the Junior cabinet.

What's in the filter

A single Junior-size cartridge with all four stages: large- and medium-particle pre-filters; 6.5+ lbs of activated carbon, potassium-iodide impregnated carbon, and zeolite tuned for VOCs, formaldehyde, and chemical odors; and 30 sq ft of True Medical-Grade HEPA for fine particles.

Compatibility — does it fit my unit?

  • Genuine part number: FR250
  • Fits: Austin Air HealthMate Plus Junior (model HM250)
  • Colors: Black (for Black & Midnight Blue units) and White (for White & Sandstone units)—identical media; color only matches your cabinet
  • Not interchangeable with the standard Junior (FR200) or any full-size Austin Air filter

When to replace it

Austin Air rates the filter for up to 5 years under normal residential use (pro-rated 5-year filter warranty). Replace sooner with heavy smoke, chemical, or dust loads.

Why choose the genuine filter

  • Exact Junior fit and a proper pressure seal, so all the air passes through the media
  • The full specialized carbon blend—what makes the Plus Junior better than the standard Junior for chemicals
  • Keeps your Austin Air warranty intact
