| Air Ionizer. The Surround Air ionic air purifier uses a stainless steel high output needlepoint to produce a high concentration of negative ions for the life of the unit. Negative ions effectively remove allergens, fine dust particles, chemical fumes, and other ultra-small particles from the air. Negative ions can even destroy viruses. With the Surround Air ionic air purifier, they can be easily distributed throughout the room as a result of the fan, cleaning even the air that does not pass through the unit.
HEPA Air Filter. High Efficiency Particulate Air Filters are the most efficient filtration device available on the market, trapping 99.97% of particles that pass through (0.3 microns or larger) so they are not allowed to be recirculated. The powerful fan of the Surround Air ionic air purifier channels a variety of particles through its HEPA air filter, including dust, pollens, mold spores, and other allergens. The Surround Air ionic air purifier's filter is economical ($40 for HEPA and activated carbon filters combined), and only needs to be replaced every one to two years. Filter replacement is extremely clean and easy.
Captured bacteria and other micro-organisms are not able to reproduce in the Surround Air ionic air purifier as they do when captured by other brands of filters. This common drawback of air filter systems is prevented by the air ionizer and programmable ozonator located nearby the filter cartridge. Air ionizers and ozonators destroy bacteria, viruses, and other microbiological pollutants.
Germicidal UV Light: Germicidal Ultra Violet lamps are scientifically proven to destroy a large variety of microbiological contaminates, including viruses, germs, bacteria, and fungi (such as mold). They have been used in the medical field (including hospitals) for decades to sanitize rooms and equipments, in order to prevent the spread of illness and disease. UV light has also been recommended by the Centers for Disease Control for this purpose.
Activated Carbon Air Filter. Activated carbon is the most absorbent type of filter material available, removing most varieties of chemicals, including cigarette smoke and odors. In the Surround Air ionic air purifier ionic air purifier, the activated carbon filter is in the same filter cartridge as the HEPA filter. In which case, the activated carbon filter does not add any cost or replacement frequency to the filter replacement information given above for the HEPA air filter ($40 for HEPA and activated carbon filters combined, replaced every one to two years).
Optional/Programmable Ozone Production. With the Surround Air ionic air purifier, you control the amount of ozone that is produced. The ozone can be completely disabled, or produced in either minute amounts for filter sanitization, moderate amounts for a faint, fresh scent in the air, or higher amounts for strong odors. Unlike all other air purifiers that produce ozone, all the other air purifying functions of the Surround Air ionic air purifier (including the air ionizer) can still run at 100% capacity even when the ozone function is completely disabled. Ozone is effective at eliminating odors, and destroying certain chemicals and micro-organisms. |
