Surround Multi-Tech XJ-3000C/D/E Air Ionizers

Surround Air Multi-Tech XJ-3000C Air Ionizer $179 $129 sale special

Certain technologies are much better than others at removing different pollutants. With the Surround Air XJ-3000C, you get the best of the most advanced air purification technologies on the market, all rolled into one air purifier:

The XJ-3000D is all that the XJ-3000C is and more. With a 90 cfm fan versus 71 cfm for the XJ-3000C, you get 29% more air flow for increased air cleaning efficiency when it’s set on the highest fan setting. This means that more pollutants are drawn through the filter and past the UV bulb. Also, the negative ions and ozone are better distributed. This increases the square foot coverage to about 600 sq. ft. Plus the XJ-3000D has a more powerful UV lamp for greater germicidal capability (40uw compared to 20uw for the XJ-3000C – uw is the ultraviolet wavelength). The XJ-3000D comes in a pearl white housing. The XJ-3000D uses the same replacement filter as the XJ-3000C.

Replacement Filters and Lamps for XJ-3000C/D/E/F
Surround models XJ-3000 C, D, E and F all share the same filter (HEPA, carbon and anti-bacterial prefilter) and UV lamp. Add a replacement filter and UV lamp for $30 at the time of purchasing an XJ-3000 C, D, E or F and save $21, plus the cost of shipping when ordered after the fact.

• HEPA/Carbon Filter lasts roughly one to two years, more or less, depending on the pollution problem. If the unit is used for smokers or high chemical or particulate pollution, expect the filter to last three to six months. $36

• Ultraviolet (UV) Lamp lasts 9-12 Months (10,000 hrs). $15

• Anti-Bacterial Pre-Filter is washable and does not need to be replaced. Wash by hand with mild soap and rinse thoroughly.

How the Multi-Tech XJ-3000C  Air Ionizer Purifies the Air

The different technologies work together, complimenting and enhancing each other:

• Remove particulate from the air, such as dust, pollen, dust mites, smoke and other allergens. Also removes ultra-fine particles that a filter cannot capture, such as smoke, viruses, and chemical fumes.

• Increase the effectiveness of the HEPA and activated carbon filters by causing particles to magnetically attract together. These larger particles are then easier for the filter to capture.

• Circulate throughout the room in areas where the filter has little effect. The Multi-Tech's fan improves distribution of the ions.

• Air Ionizer/Negative Ion Research & Studies

• Is scientifically proven to destroy a large variety of microbial contaminates, such as viruses, germs, bacteria and fungi (including mold).

• Reduces illness & disease and has been used for years by the medical field (including hospitals) to sanitize rooms and equipment and to prevent the spread of illness and disease.

• Recommended by Centers for Disease Control for its ability to destroy biological pollutants.

• Superior UV Lamp. The Multi-Tech uses a "CCFL" (Cold Cathode) ultraviolet lamp, which lasts longer than other UV lamps. This powerful UV lamp is positioned where it can effectively sanitize the HEPA air filter. This is desirable because while a HEPA filter can trap microbials, it cannot destroy them, so when you change the filter, you tend to reintroduce those microbials back into the air.

Clinical Test Results

Reduced Deadly "Sewer Gas" by 93%
Hydrogen Sulfide (H2S), a strong gas created by stagnant sewage, is one of the very worst, and most difficult-to-remove pollutants and odors known to man. An air purifier's ability to remove H2S is a good indication of its ability to remove strong odors, toxic mold and volatile organic chemicals (VOCs), such as chemicals from building materials, carpeting and furniture. In clinical tests, the XJ-3000C Multi-Tech Ionic Air Purifier reduced airborne levels of H2S by 93%. In the same test, the Ionic Breeze Quadra reduced the H2S by just 13%. (Test Result Details)

99.5% Removal Rate of Particles in Chamber
In a recent lab test, the Multi-Tech removed 99.5% of airborne particulate in a 128 cubic foot chamber (including 99% of the smallest range - 0.3 microns and smaller), designed to replicate the conditions in a typical room. This is more impressive than most removal rate percentages you see, since it measures the particles throughout an entire chamber outside the air purifier, and not just at the point where the air enters the air purifier, which is the common way of testing particle reduction.

XJ-3000C/E Ionic Air Purifier Features

Inexpensive Air Filter Replacement - Since the HEPA filter and the activated carbon filter are built into the same filter cartridge, filter replacement for the XJ-3000C ionic air filter is simple and economical, much more so than other room air filters. The cost to replace the HEPA/activated carbon air filter cartridge is just $32, and only needs to be replaced every one to two years. The sanitization effect of the negative ions and ozone in the XJ-3000C increases the life of its filters.

Clean, Easy Filter Replacement - Replacing the HEPA/activated carbon is simply a matter of taking off the front cover, pulling out the old air filter and inserting the new one. The front cover then just snaps back in place. Unlike other air filters, no tools are needed, and the air filters can be removed without getting your hands dirty.

Energy Efficient - The XJ-3000C Ionic Air Purifier uses only 40 watts and costs less than $5 a month in electricity (if run continuously), thanks to an advanced, energy-efficient design. In contrast, most air filters add over a hundred dollars a year to your power bill, and some actually increase your electricity bill by $200 or more per year.

Quiet and Powerful Fan - On the lowest setting, the XJ-3000C fan is barely audible. Even on the powerful high setting, it is not disturbing. The fan draws airborne particles in through the HEPA and Activated Carbon air filters, which collect and remove contaminates from the air. Then, the strong air flow created by the fan blows the negative ions throughout the room, resulting in a much higher ion concentration throughout the entire room. When the ozone is turned on, the fan also ensures that it is well distributed, which helps to prevent the strong "bleach-like" smell ozone can cause.

Powerful Collection Method for Ionized Particles - Many air ionizers do not have any way to collect ionized particles. Although magnetized, metal plates are a more convenient collection method. The  HEPA/activated carbon combination filter in the XJ-3000C will collect far more particles, especially with the fan drawing them into the filters. As a result, more particles are drawn into the unit (as compared to metal collection plates), and the collected particles are far less likely to become recirculated into the air.

NO Black Wall Effect - An air ionizer without a collection device will cause black wall effect, where the high density of ionized particles close to the air ionizer will attract to the closest, magnetically charged surface, which is normally wall space within a few feet of the unit. In the XJ-3000C, the ionized particles close to the air purifier are drawn into the air filter cartridge by the fan, where they become trapped.

Stainless Steel, Ion-Producing Needlepoints - Needlepoints produce a higher output of negative ions than any other method, but most needlepoint ionizers use a non-durable material that usually lasts only a few months. On the other hand, the stainless steel needlepoints used in the XJ-3000C Ionic Air Purifier will last the life of the unit.

Combines the 2 Most Effective Filter Types - HEPA filters are the most efficient type of air filter, removing 99.97% of solid particles that pass through (.03 microns or larger). Activated carbon filters are the most absorbent type of filter, removing even gaseous particles such as chemical fumes, cigarette smoke and odors.

Adjustable Ozone Output (C Model ONLY) - Filter-based air purification technologies often become breeding grounds for micro-organisms. But with the flexible ozone production design of the XJ-3000C, you can increase, decrease or turn off ozone production as needed to sanitize and purify the air and surfaces of bacteria, germs, viruses, etc. For instance: 

Ozone Can Be Completely Shut Off - All air ionizers produce at least a small amount of ozone, since it is a natural byproduct of ionization. Yet many ionic air purifiers need to be turned off in order to limit the ozone production, which also shuts down the ion output. With the Surround Air XJ-3000C, the ozone can be completely disabled even if the ionizer remains on, so you can continue to benefit from the ionization with no detectable ozone amounts and no ozone smell. Thus, you can place it in a small child's or a baby's room without any worry at all.

Ozone Production Can Be Boosted - Just as the ozone level from most air ionizers cannot be limited, most are also incapable of boosting the ozone concentration when needed for odor control. For example, when there is cigarette smoke or other strong odors, a higher ozone output is very helpful. The XJ-3000C can be programmed to produce an ozone amount that is high enough to effectively reduce strong odors.

Ozone Output Can Be Adjusted - Set the ozone at very low levels -- Off, Low, Medium, or High setting. Just hit the button until the LED light next to the desired setting is lit. When the off setting is chosen, the ozone vacuum tube produces no ozone, releasing virtually no ozone into the air at all. On low, the XJ-3000C runs in intervals of 23 seconds "On", and 5 minutes and 37 seconds "Off". On medium, the ozone generator runs in intervals of 2 minutes "On", and 4 minutes "Off". On the high setting, it runs continuously, which is beneficial in situations where strong odors or heavy pollution are present.

Timed Ozone Treatments for Tougher Problems - If you want to treat a space with a strong level of ozone for 1, 2, or 4 hours while you are gone, simply set the timer. The XJ-3000C will automatically turn off after the specified amount of time, preventing the ozone from building up too much while you are away.

Affordable Purification for One Room or an Entire House

Most portable air ionizers are primarily effective only for the room in which they are placed, and the most effective way to purify the air throughout a home is to place individual air purifiers in each room. However, the expense of most portable room air purifiers makes it cost-prohibitive to place one in each room. With the XJ-3000C, the more you buy, the lower your price per unit:
