Surround Air - Proven, Affordable Air Purifiers for the Home or Office

Facts about Indoor Air Quality:

According to the American College of Allergies, 50% of all illness is aggravated or caused by polluted indoor air. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) themselves declare that indoor air is anywhere from 2 to 10 times more hazardous than outdoor air. The EPA also warns us that the indoor air quality is the United States' number one environmental health problem. Today's homes and buildings are built air-tight, and contain a long list of pollution sources (see list). As a result, natural air-cleansing agents such as ozone and negative ions are kept out, while contaminants are kept in. A recent study found that the allergen level in super-insulated homes is 200% higher than it is in ordinary homes. According to Scientific America, a baby crawling on the floor inhales the equivalent of 4 cigarettes a day, as a result of the outgassing of carpets, molds, mildews, fungi, dust mites, etc. Most people spend well over 90% of their time indoors. In which case, indoor air is going to impact our health far more than outdoor air. The EPA informs us that 6 out of 10 homes and buildings are "sick", meaning they are hazardous to your health to occupy as a result of airborne pollutants.


Pollutants Removed By the Surround Air Multi-Tech Air Purifier:

Dust/Dust Mites - The Surround Air Purifier 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.

Mold/Fungi - Mold spores are effectively captured by Surround Air 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 Surround Air Purifiers ozone sanitizer can be completely turned off if not needed or desired.

Cigarette Smoke - The Surround Air 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.

Odors - Both the Surround Air Purifier 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 the Surround Air Purifiers ionizer activated. This was discovered by researchers at Brompton Hospital in London, and published in European Respiratory Journal.

Bacteria - Many bacteria are effectively captured by the Surround Air 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, the Surround Air Purifiers negative ions also cause airborne particles to precipitate out of the air you breathe.

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

Germs/Viruses - The Surround Air Purifiers 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.

TRUE CUSTOMER TESTIMONIAL - "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
