Just a partial list of the many types of pollutants removed by the Multi-Tech air purifier.

Dust/Dust Mites. The Multi-Tech's Hepa air filter is highly effective at capturing solid particles such as dust and dust mites. According to the Journal of Hygiene, ionizers help to increase the efficiency of filters, by causing airborne particles to conglomerate, making them easier to capture. Plus, negative ions also cause airborne particles to precipitate out of the air you breathe, and have been found to be extremely effective at controlling dust by U.S. Dept. of Agriculture studies. UV light can be deadly for dust mites.

Bacteria. Many bacteria are effectively captured by the Hepa air filter, as well as the anti-bacterial pre-filter (which also disinfects bacteria). The germicidal UV lamp serves to disinfect the bacteria trapped by the Hepa filter. Plus, according to studies by the U.S. Dept. of Agriculture, ionizers/negative ions are extremely effective at reducing airborne bacteria.

Pollen and Other Allergens. Hepa air filters are commonly recommended filter for allergens, and are generally considered the most effective filter for allergens. Ionizers/negative ions increase the efficiency of filters by causing airborne particles to conglomerate, making them easier to capture. Plus, negative ions also cause airborne particles to precipitate out of the air you breathe.

Mold/Fungi. Mold spores are effectively captured by Hepa air filters, especially with the help of ionizers/negative ions. UV light is deadly against the microbiological toxins associated with mold, and ozone sanitization effective against mildew smells. The ozone sanitizer can be completely turned off if not needed or desired.

Cigarette Smoke. The Multi-Tech's carbon air filter absorbs smoke particles and the toxic chemicals associated with cigarette smoke. With the help of the programmable ozone sanitizer (which can be turned off completely), it also helps to reduce or eliminate odors from cigarette smoke. The ionizer/negative ions also remove smoke particles from air.

Chemicals and VOCs (Volatile Organic Compounds). The carbon air filter is very effective at absorbing chemicals and gases. The ionizer also help to neutralize chemical fumes.

Germs/Viruses. The UV light is deadly against micro-organisms such as germs/viruses, and highly effective at destroying them as they pass by the UV lamp. Negative ions have also been known to help to neutralize viruses.

Odors. Both the ozone sanitizer and activated carbon air filter are effective at eliminating or reducing strong odors. The ozone sanitizer output can be adjusted, or turn off completely if not needed or wanted.

Carbon Monoxide. A statistically significant decrease of CO values was found with an ionizer activated. This was discovered by researchers at Brompton Hospital in London, and published in European Respiratory Journal.

Literally within minutes the odor was gone. The odor had migrated into our living room, so we simply moved the unit back in and again, within minutes the odor was gone!-  F. Jaramillo, California
