ALLERAIR'S AIR PURIFICATION SYSTEM
LASER TESTED TRUE HEPA
HEPA (Hight Efficiency Particulate Arrestance) filters were develped for the Atomic
Energy Commission to remove radio active dust from their laboratories. The are now the
primary filtration systems for electonic clean room assembly, hospital surgeries, bio
engineering, pharmaceutical laboratories and any other space where clean air is critical.
HEPA will trap microscopic dust which will give you distress from allergies, asthma,
respiratory problems, chemical sensitivities and sick building syndrome. It will trap
99.97% of all particles down to 0.3 microns (including bacteria, dust mite antigens,
respiratory particles, fungal and other microbiologicals. For these reasons that HEPA
filtration is recommended by more allergists, medical professionals and clean air
consultants than any other filter system available.
CARBON FILTER (ACTIVATED AND GRANULATED)
We use only activated granular carbon mixed with zeolite and specially impregnated
carbons. We stay away from dust carbon which has been impregnated onto a poly or
foam material. This type of carbon filter has to be changed as often as every week to be
fully effective. AllerAir's carbon filter can last up to 2 or 3 years and more, depending on
the level of toxins in the area.
The activated carbon we use is derived from coconut shell and can adsorb up to 60% of
its own weight in toxic gases, fumes and chemicals. These toxic substances make us ill,
and are found in every home, office and industry.
OTHER FILTERING SYSTEMS AVAILABLE
Ozone generators, negative ion machines and electrostatically charged units all
generate ozone which is a toxic substance. Any unit which provides ozone cannot be
recommended by Health and Welfare or by the Lung Association.
AllerAir's units on the other hand do not produce any ozone whatsoever. The latest air
purification technology does not add anything to the air (especially impurities like
ozone or P.V.C.s). AllerAir's unit scrubs impurities and toxins out of the air.
ENERGY COSTS
We use a high efficiency motor which cost pennies a day to operate in contrast to
almost all other manufactures who use the lowest price motor available. One of the
reasons we can offer a five year extendible to ten year warranty is because of the
sophisticated motor we use. We have spared no effort to give you the most for the least.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
The rush of air on "Low", makes less noise which is often used to help people sleep more
soundly. Use "High" in work places or home living rooms. Use "Turbo" when you are out
of the area for the day or night. The sound you hear from the unit is the sound of the air
passing through the vent to achieve a current so that your complete area will receive
changes of air.
The air coming out of the unit may feel cool to your hand, but the temperture of the air
is actually the same. And AllerAir units are specially designed to have no offgasing
because our entire unit housing is made of steel.
