 How
the Multi-Tech Air Purifier WorksHow all of the Multi-Tech air purification technologies compliment each other. Read below for details about each air purification method used by the Multi-Tech air purifiers, and how they all work together. Technologies in Order of Position in Air Flow Stream: 1. Anti-Bacterial Pre-Filter Air first passes through the Multi-Tech's anti-bacterial pre-filter. Preserves the life of other filters, so more pores can remain available in the activated carbon and HEPA air filters for the harder-to-remove pollutants. Destroys bacteria to help prevent them from reproducing and recirculating into the air.
How the Anti-Bacterial
Pre-Filter Purifies the Air: 2. Activated Carbon Air Filter The activated carbon is next in line after the pre-filter. Specializes in capturing and neutralizing chemicals, gases, odors and cigarette smoke, which the HEPA filter cannot capture.
How Activated Carbon Filters
Purify the Air: 3. True HEPA Air Filter After the air has moved past the pre-filter and carbon filter, removing larger particles, many bacteria, chemicals, odors, etc., it comes to the thick layer of HEPA filtration. Removes 99.97% of particles (at .3 microns in size) that pass through the filter, as verified through strict testing procedures. Largely considered the most effective type of air filter for solid particles, such as dust and other allergens, such as pollens, pet dander, mold spores, ragweed, dust mites, etc.
How HEPA Air Filters Purify the
Air:
4. Germicidal Ultraviolet Light The UV lamp is positioned behind the HEPA air filter. The UV lamp destroys the micro-organisms (such as viruses and some bacteria) that cannot be captured by filters. Destroys micro-organisms. UV light is scientifically proven to destroy viruses, germs, bacteria, fungi (including mold), etc. Reduces illness & disease. UV light has been used for years by the medical field 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. Sanitizes the HEPA Air Filter. This powerful UV lamp is positioned where it can effectively sanitize the Hepa air filter.
How UV Lights Purify the Air:
5. Sanitizer The ozone sanitizer is located just above the UV lamp. If turned on, it ozonates the air as it passed through, along with the air in the room. This function can be turned off completely if not desired or needed. Ozone Free Operation. By default, the ozone sanitizer is disabled. If activated, ozone output can be set to Low, Medium or High. Powerful odor eliminator, which is a weakness of most other air purification methods.
How Ozone
Sanitizers Purify the Air: 6. Air Ionizer The ionizer is located just inside the air outlet. It circulates air-cleaning negative ions into the air. Effectively removes particulate from the air, such as bacteria, smoke, and allergens such as mold and dust mites. Circulates ions throughout the a room, in areas where the filter has little effect. Increases the effectiveness of the HEPA by causing smaller particles to conglomerate into larger particles, according to Journal of Hygiene. Government studies show negative ions to be effective at removing dust and micro-organisms from the air (U.S. Dept. of Agriculture). Columbia University researchers found negative ions to have relatively no side effects. Ozone Free. The ionizer does not produce ozone as a byproduct.
