Air Filter Buying Guide

Multi-Tech Compared to
Other Air Filters

Multi-Tech offers more complimentary technologies than other air filters, including a germicidal UV lamp. As a result, it has a much greater ability to destroy micro-organisms than most other air filters.


What to Look for in an Air Filter.

Built-In Air Ionizer

negative ion generatorsAn air ionizer will increase the effectiveness of an air filter, by increasing the size of the particles drawn into the filter. Negative ions produced by an ionizer cause airborne particles to magnetically clump together, forming larger particles, which are more easily captured by the filter.

Negative ion generators are also capable of circulating throughout a room or area, removing from the air even particulate far away from where the air filter is located. Normally, particulate on the farther away from the air filter are unaffected, since many particles away from the air filter will not make their way across the room, and through a filter.

The Multi-Tech Air Purifier uses a high density needlepoint ionizer to produce a high concentration of negative ions.

HEPA Air Filter

hepa air filterThe HEPA air purifier is the most effective type of air filter for dust and other allergens, trapping 99.97% of particulate at the hard-to-remove size of 0.3 microns (300 times smaller than the width of a human hair. As part of its 3-layer filter, the Multi-Tech air purifier includes a True Hepa air filter, tested to ensure maximum performance.

Activated Carbon Air Filter

Activated carbon is highly effective at removing a wide variety of chemicals from the air, in addition to cigarette smoke and odors. It is the most absorbent of all air filter types. The Multi-Tech air purifier also offers an activated carbon filter in addition to the HEPA filter.

Filter Sterilization

One major drawback of most room air filters is that they serve as a breeding ground for bacteria and other microbes trapped within. Air filtration systems with a germicidal UV lamp (the most effective of filter sterilizers) located close to the filter will prevent this from happening, by destroying micro-organisms trapped in the filter. No other air purification technology is more effective at destroying micro-organisms. The Multi-Tech air purifier has a powerful, germicidal UV lamp positioned right behind the filter cartridge.

Long Lasting Air Filters

Replacing air filters can be inconvenient, making it important to have an air filter that will last a long time between replacements. The Multi-Tech air purifier has one combination air filter cartridge consisting of a HEPA filter, activated carbon filter and anti-bacterial pre-filter, which lasts one to two years before requiring replacement.

Inexpensive Filter Replacement

Many air filter systems use filters that cost well over a hundred dollars per year to replace. In which case, it is important to find out the cost of replacement filters before buying. The Multi-Tech filter cartridge costs just $32 to replace, and lasts 1-2 years.

Low Electricity Consumption

In addition to expensive filter replacement costs, some air filters also cost well over $100 or $200 a year in electricity costs. The Multi-Tech is rated at just 40 watts, costing only a few dollars or so per month in electricity costs (if run continuously).

Low Noise

Another common problem with many air filters is that they are so loud, it is recommended that you only run them when you are not present, which limits their ability to keep the air clean on an ongoing basis. The Multi-Tech is very quiet, especially when the fan is on the "Low" setting, where it is barely audible. Even on the high fan speed setting, the Multi-Tech is not at all disturbing.
