Solve Your Dust, Dust Mites, Pollen, Pet Dander
and Smoke Allergy-Trigger
Problems
Airpura HEPA Particulate Removal Air Purifier Controls
Dust, Dust Mites,
Pollen, Dander and ALL Airborne Particulates
to Eliminate Allergy Triggers
Allergies and asthma are a major cause of illness and disability, affecting allergic
people from infants to seniors. Because allergies are cumulative, building in
allergic symptom severity with each successive particulate matter exposure,
minimizing exposure to all particulate allergens is vital for all allergic individuals.
Common indoor particulate matter that triggers allergic symptoms include:
Dust - Dust has long been the bane of meticulous
housekeepers, and now there is another reason to banish it from the home.
According to researchers, wheezing during the first year of life is more
common in infants whose homes have high levels of bacterial endotoxin,
an airway irritant that can be present in common house dust. HEPA filters
are designed to remove dust as small as .3 microns, and do so quickly
(Turned on HIGH, an Airpura can completely remove all particulate in
a 2000 square foot area in 30 minutes.). Whereas oxidation
air purification technology takes a bit longer because it is dissolving
the particulate rather than swiftly removing it using a fan, and it oxidizes
particulate as small as .003, such as, herbicides, pesticides and some
viruses.
Airborne Pollen Allergy - Pollen allergies and asthma
symptoms triggered by trees, grass, plants and flowers that enter homes
through windows and doors are quickly removed from the air with a HEPA
filter. Heat Sterilization Air Purifiers also
do a great job of removing pollen without needing to replace filters,
but they can only treat rooms up to 650 square foot.
Dust Mite Allergy - Dust Mite allergies and asthma
symptoms activated by dust mite fecal matter in carpets, upholstered
furniture, bed linens, mattresses and box springs, animal dander and
house dust are removed. Heat Sterilization technology for smaller spaces
also works well at removing dust mite particulate.
Pet Dander Allergy - Pet Dander allergies and asthma
symptoms triggered by animal dander and old skin scales are removed through
HEPA filtration. Heat Sterilization is also good for removing pet dander.
Smoke Particulate - Smoke is only one aspect of air
pollution emitted from things burning: a cigarette, cigar or pipe, fireplace,
wood-burning stove, coal stoves, home fires and forest fires. Burning
substances emit particulate in the form of ash, soot, tar, chemicals
and smoke. Tar is a gooey toxic chemical waste from smoking tobacco.
It turns walls and furniture yellow in homes and offices inhabited by
heavy smokers. Because of tar's sticky and viscous properties, HEPA filters
clog faster, so a TAR Prefilter is recommended if an air cleaner will
be used regularly in smoky bars, cigar salons, basement smoking parlors,
smoky restaurants, etc. (See Airpura
T600 for Smoke). While a HEPA filter is not designed for chemicals
(that's what carbon filters and oxidation
air purifiers and Ti02 multi-technology
air purifiers do), a HEPA filter does capture particulate emissions
released by fire.
Plus, it is no secret that the burning of fossil fuels cause air pollution
and adversely affects the health of the human population. Over the last
10 years, research has been providing new insight about the health consequences
of particulate air pollution. Generated by the use of fossil energy, respirable-sized
particles pose a major threat to our environment and health.
Eliminating Allergens Is the Best Solution
for Allergy and Asthma Sufferers
Did you know?
The average home collects about 2 pounds of dust per week.
Visible particles constitute only about 10% of indoor air.
Particles of 1 micron or less adhere to surfaces by molecular adhesion.
Scrubbing is generally the only way to remove them, except by using oxidation air
purification technology.
Smaller, "respirable" particles remain suspended in the air
virtually indefinitely - until breathed into your lungs.
The average person breathes in about 16,000 quarts of air per day.
Each quart contains some 70,000 visible and invisible particles. That's
over a billion particles per day that our lungs have to filter out!
A 9' x 12' carpet or rug will collect an average of about 10 pounds
of dust per year!
100% of all respiratory ailments and disease are triggered by inhaled
particulate. That's right, 100%.
Consider this: When the immune system is working hard to protect your
body from the air you breathe, other body systems could suffer. The cleaner
the air you breathe, the healthier you become. Likewise, the cleaner
the water you drink, the healthier you become (water
filters).

Looking for an Airpura for Microbials - Molds, Bacteria and Viruses?
The AP-UV600 is the R600 upgraded wth a UltraViolet lamp. It gives you
the best of filtration, carbon and UV Light Sterilization because
it has a 2" HEPA filter for particulate, an 18 lb. carbon filter for
odors and chemicals and a 17" U-shaped 20 watt Germicidial UltraViolet
lamp for microbials (molds, yeast, bacteria and viruses). This model is available
in a whole-house version to install into your central air system.
If you want the best of all air purification technologies --
HEPA, carbon, UV Light Sterilization and TitanClean's™ titanium dioxide
(TiO2) coating -- choose the AP-P600 because it has a
2" Metal Capped HEPA filter for particulate, an 18 lb. carbon filter
for odors and chemicals, a 17" U-shaped Ultraviolet lamp for microbials
(molds, yeast, bacteria and viruses) and Titanium Dioxide Photo-Catalytic
oxidation Technology (PCO), which dramatically increases the range of dangerous
airborne chemicals that can be neutralized safely and effectively. Airpura
TitanClean's™ titanium dioxide (TiO2) coating in conjunction with the UV
light, creates an oxidation process that instantly breaks molecular bonds
and reduces airborne chemicals to smaller safer compounds, until only carbon
dioxide and water vapor are left. Airpura strictly uses non-ozone
generating UV lamps. When the UV lamps irradiate the TiO2, hydroxyl
radicals and super-oxide ions, are produced that oxidize Volatile Organic
Compounds (VOCs) and at the same time kill and decompose bio-aerosols.
This model is available in a whole-house version to install into your
central air system.
Looking for an Airpura for VOCs, Chemicals or Smoky Places?
If VOCs from
new carpeting, painting, furniture, remodeling, new electronic equipment,
plastics or other sources is the major problem -- or you have a nail
salon -- the Airpura AP-V600 is
the best choice because it has an 18 lb. super carbon filter designed
specifically for VOCs and where problems are formaldehyde or ammonia-based
and a 2" HEPA
filter for particulate.
If your primary problem is chemicals, the AP-C600,
with a hefty 26 lb carbon filter, would be the best choice. If for smokers,
choose the AP-T600 with
a Tar Barrier filter.
Airpura Cleans All the Air in a 2000 Square
Foot Space
in 30 Minutes When Turned on High
The Airpura H600 is an excellent choice for bedrooms, living areas, offices,
public spaces, waiting rooms, etc., anywhere that people wheeze, sneeze
or suffer symptoms of allergies or asthma from particulate matter. Color
choices are black, white or cream.
Unique Features to All Airpura Air Purifiers:
All metal housing ensures no plastic vapors are emitted.
Motor located out of the air flow. Most air cleaners
blow the clean air over the motor and pick up impurities.
Electrical parts in a sealed chamber out of the airflow,
which increases safety and prevents off-gassing.
Pressure sealed filter chamber prevents leakage of polluted
air around filters.
Felt gaskets seal the filter chamber to maximize filtration
with no rubber off-gassing found with other filters.
Clean modern appearance fits in any decor.
Low noise level (at 6 feet) 28.1db on low, 62.3db on
high (560 CFM).
Simple and direct unimpeded internal airflow avoids
the air turbulence, inefficiency and noise associated with more convoluted
air cleaners.
Cleanable Pre-filter (570 sq in x 1" deep)
can be vacuumed through the grill and changed every 12 months.
Technical Specifications Apply to All Models
Listed Above
Room Size: Effective
for up to 2000 sq ft., depending on pollution levels.
Air Flow: 560
CFM, more CFM than any other portable unit available. Recycles the
air every 30 minutes on high.
Odor / Chemical Control: The
Hi-C Carbon Weave filter absorbs airborne chemicals and noxious gases
and odors. It comes standard on the H600 and is an option on the I600.
The Carbon Block has two microsuppress filters surrounding the carbon
bed to contain the carbon within the filter and help inhibit the growth
of microbials on the carbon filter. The regular carbon filter is 100%
coconut shell and is used in the Airpura R600 and UV600. The Airpura
V600 has a Super Enhanced Carbon blend that has been specially treated
to deal with specific chemicals, like VOCs, formaldehyde or ammonia.
HEPA
Filter: Developed by the atomic energy commission to filter
radio active particles as small as 0.3 microns. True HEPA 80 sq ft:
Warm rolled to prevent cracking, 10 pleats per square inch maximizes
filtration (other systems only use 6-8 folds). Spacers to make sure
every fold filters. Traps particulate up to .3 microns. All models with
HEPA filters except the I600 come standard with a new metal capped HEPA
filter, which removes the possibility of any plastic vapors from non-metal
caps. The closed end on the HEPA cylinder completely seal the particle
filtration process, eliminating the possibility of by-pass by particle-bearing
air. The I600 HEPA can be upgraded to the metal cap. Replace HEPA filters roughly
every 5 years.
Pre-filter: 570 sq in
x 1" deep, can be vacuumed from the exterior of the unit and should
