1,000 nano = 1 micro. Nano here refer to particles with very fine size. HEPA filter can filter out 0.3 micro particle at minimum efficiency 99.97%. Nano is a unit of size and HEPA is the filter. Both thing can't be compare.
H10 filter refer to afficiency at 85%. It was not the HEPA standard. Some ppl call it Semi-HEPA.
Antimicrobial HEPA means that the HEPA filter gone through the chemical treatment that can prevent microorganisms (normally refer to fungus and bacteria) from grawing when they trap on the HEPA filter.
All the AP with HEPA Filter (real HEPA) effectively to remove smoke particles. So please buy the AP with HEPA at efficiency at least 99.97% if you want to remove smoke.
Hope above info can help you.

To further explain, HEPA filters can only trap particles and need to maintained or changed over time which will cost more since these filters are quite expensive. And there are lots of AP in the market which are emitting Ozone which is very hazardous to health. So, do check this out before committing to any AP.

Btw...I'll post u guys a demo kit showing how effective this AP can remove smoke particles without any HEPA filters by next week.
