True Hepa Filter Air Purifier Air Cleaner Air Filtration System

Residential, commercial, medical, industrial, military use. 
Filtration Media: True HEPA, Activated carbon , activated charcoal to eliminate dust, odors, smoke, mold, allergens.

| What is HEPA? | 99.97% free of particulates | Efficiency | Maintenance |

  • What is HEPA?
    HEPA Filters were developed by the Atomic Energy Commission during World War II to remove radio active dust from their plant exhaust. HEPA Filters (HIGH EFFICIENCY PARTICULATE ARRESTANCE) are now the primary filtration systems for electronic clean room assembly, isolation wards, surgical theaters, bioengineering, pharmaceutical processing, and any application where maximum reduction or removal of sub micron particulate is required.

    HEPA filtered air is 99.97% free of all particulate down to 0.3 microns (including bacteria, fungal and other opportunistic micro biological). Because of this, HEPA is rapidly coming into many medical applications such as isolation of patients under treatment involving immunological isolation, care for burn victims, orthopedic surgery, etc.| Back |

Mold damage in homes and wheezing in infants

[ http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2233984/ ]

Background

In most studies that investigate the association of mold or water damage and respiratory disorders in infants, the analysis is not adjusted for exposure to house dust mite (HDM), which is also a known cause of respiratory illnesses.

Objective

To investigate the relationship between visually observable mold or water damage and HDM (Der f 1) levels and the prevalence of lower respiratory tract symptoms and allergen sensitization in infants of atopic parents as part of a prospective birth cohort study.

Methods

On-site home visits (at the infants’ age of 8 months) were performed to evaluate observable mold or water damage and HDM exposure. At a clinic visit near the infant’s first birthday, medical histories, including parent-reported wheezing episodes, and a skin prick test to food and 15 common aeroallergens were conducted in 640 infants.

Results

More than half of the homes were found to have mold or water damage, and 5% had major mold or water damage with visible mold at 0.2 m2 or more. Only 16% of homes had a HDM allergen (Der f 1) concentration of more than 2 μg/g. Major mold or water damage increased the risk of recurrent wheezing nearly 2 times in infants, 5 times in food or aeroallergen-sensitized infants, and 6 times in aeroallergen-sensitized infants. Neither visible mold or water damage nor HDM exposure was associated with sensitization to either mold or aeroallergens.

Conclusions

Visible mold was shown to be a significant risk factor for recurrent wheezing in infants at high risk of developing atopic disorders, whereas HDM exposure did not significantly increase the risk.

air filtration system you can use inside your truck cab

Positive Air Pressure Negative Air Pressure Air Filtration System

Ducting Options - Positive - Negative Pressure Model (configuration)

Ducting Options for the Allerair air cleaner, air purifier models- positive and negative pressure applications. Positive Air Pressure Negative Air Pressure Air Filtration System

Find a solution for every situation

Positive PressureThe positive air configuration draws in the indoor air by the top of the unit and blows clean air out by the bottom.

The positive air configuration draws in the indoor air by the top of the unit and blows clean air out by the bottom.

This system can be used to bring outdoor air through the air cleaner and create positive air pressure in the interior space.

This pressure forces the contaminated indoor air out and replaces it with cleaned outdoor air.

The positive air configuration is used in the Air Handler central air systems and may be used to feed clean air into a heat exchanger or air duct.

The negative air configuration draws the contaminated air in through the bottom of the unit and blows it out through  the top.This pressure draws outdoor air into the interior to replace the extracted contaminated air. Negative Pressure

The negative air configuration draws the contaminated air in through the bottom of the unit and blows it out through the top.

This system can be used to move contaminated air from indoors to outdoors through the air cleaner and create negative air pressure in the indoor space.

This pressure draws outdoor air into the interior to replace the extracted contaminated air.

The air cleaner cleans the contaminated indoor air before releasing it outdoors to avoid creating outdoor pollution and to conform with environmental regulations.
