Why Purify Your Air?
-
We Purify Our Water, Why Not Our Air?
We eat organic food, drink filtered water and clean with anti-bacterial products. What about the air you and your family breathe? The fibers released from furniture, drapery, carpeting and clothing, drift and settle around the home each time they are touched. Also, when you vacuum up dirt and dust with a vacuum cleaner, you the vacuum actually spits out dirt and debris while you are cleaning!
Even in the cleanest homes, don’t be fooled by what you cannot see. These culprits may not be visible, but they are there wreaking havoc on the well-being of you and your family.

How Does an Air Purifier Work ?
Air purifiers are designed to help remove airborne particles and odors from air passing through the filter.
- Using fans the dirty air is brought in through an intake grill
- The air then passes through filters helping to remove pollutants, allergens, and other contaminants from the Air your breathe.
- After the air is filtered, a fan distributes the clean air back into the room.

Why Ionize?
Some Air Purifiers have an independently controlled ionizer, which, when turned on, releases negative ions into outgoing filtered air. Ions are tiny particles that carry a positive or negative charge. These ions exist naturally around us, in the air, water and ground. Both positive and negative ions are colorless, odorless and completely harmless. Negative ions help the air purification process by attaching themselves to very small airborne particles in the room.
These particles take on a negative charge and may join with positively charged particles such as dust, pollen, smoke and pet dander to form larger particles. These larger particles are then more rapidly captured by the filter system, or may be attracted to positively charged surfaces throughout the home, like walls or floors. This may occur more frequently when the filter is nearing the end of its functional life expectancy and is able to capture less of the charged particles.
You may also note after extended use, that dust may have collected around the grills or front panel. This is from the ionization affect caused by the negative ions exiting from the air outlet. This is additional evidence of the air cleaning effectiveness of negative ions. The dust can be easily removed with a clean, damp cloth or soft brush.
Finally, using your ionizer may result in an occasional popping or cracking sound. This is a normal sound, generally caused by particles of dust that are interrupting the flow of ions, causing a small build-up of ions that, when discharged, cause the popping or cracking sound.
NOTE: It is important to clean the HEPA filter at the recommended intervals.
CADR Ratings
CADR ratings indicate the volume of filtered air delivered by an air purifier, allowing you to compare one air purifier to another. The higher the CADR numbers the faster the unit filters the air. This unit's CADR ratings are:
Tobacco Smoke: 72
Dust: 80
Pollen: 76
