Waste of Money
I bought a Car Airchamber from Airflow-UK last autumn, as it is supposed to keep a car clean and dry. I was very careful to set everything up according to the instructions...
Within a few days of keeping my car in the chamber I noticed that dust was starting to settle on it. After storing for 4 months over the winter, there was a considerable amount of dust. This product does not keep a car clean as it is advertised to do. This is hardly surprising, as the "high-tech filters" are actually just a couple of nylon "socks" with visible holes. They undoubtedly filter out a certain amount of dust, but as the flow rate is quite high (50 cubic metres per hour), a considerable amount of dust does get inside the chamber and on to the car.
Worse than that, mould has formed on the inside of my soft-top and on the sunvisors. I noticed during the winter that condensation would sometimes form on the floor of the chamber and once even on the insides of the walls, although I did not see any condensation on the car itself. They claim that the product will prevent "mill-dew", which is clearly not the case from my experience.
Once, after cleaning, drying and parking the car in the chamber, a little drop of water trickled down from behind the license plate on to the bumper. That drop was still there two days later, so the claim that the chamber will dry a car "like a washing line" is also not true.
I mailed the company various times to ask for help with the dust issue but, once it became clear that they could not fix it, they ignored me. I asked for a refund but they simply did not reply.
My conclusion: The product does not perform its function of keeping a car clean and dry, and the customer service is deplorable.
The only function it does perform well is to prevent accidental physical damage such as scratches since the air pressure inside makes it almost impossible to accidentally touch the car from outside.
