Product Description The Allerair 5000 Exec UV air purifiers offer outstanding performance and value with more complete filtration than the competitors and without the potentially harmful ozone levels generated by many ionic air purifiers.
The experts at AllerAir know air purification and all of their know how is seen in the 5000 Exec UV. Compare Allerair to other models on the market and you will see why. Many air purifiers on the market only filter particles but particles are only part of the picture. Of the particulate filters, not all are created equal. Not all provide true HEPA filtration, the type used in hospitals to trap very small particles. The 5000 Exec UV captures particles with true HEPA filtration, but does not stop there. Particulate filters do not address gasses - a leading cause of allergic reactions. To address potentially harmful and irritating gasses, Allerair includes a whopping 18 lbs of activated MAC-B Carbon. The Allerair experts know that a simple thin sheet of carbon in a prefilter is not the same as the bulk carbon used in their filter. Not all carbon is created equal. Allerair uses a special formulation for superior performance. What about ionic filters? Many reports (see below) show ionic filters to be ineffective at filtering particles from the air compared to a HEPA filter. Additionally, purely ionic filters and ionizers do not address gasses, but worse, add potentially harmful Ozone, a known irritant to the air. AllerAir does not stop at superior
particulate and gaseous filtration, the Exec UV also adds a UV light to sterilize airborne antigens and pathogens.
A Comprehensive Air Purification System
The 5000 Exec UV Model is a great all-purpose air purifier featuring a powerful, four-stage filtration system which uses 18 lbs of activated MAC-B carbon and a HEPA filter to eliminate airborne particles, chemicals, gases and odors. The Allerair 5000 Exec UV also features a 10 Watt Ultraviolet lamp to sterilize airborne antigens and pathogens, making it our favorite all purpose home or office air purifier. No other air purifiers manufacturer delivers as much carbon and HEPA filtration in such a cost effective manner.
Successfully used in hospitals, waiting rooms, daycares, and food preparation areas, effective for up to 1500 sq. ft, this unit is our recommendation for or anywhere bacteria or mould may be a problem. It's cylindrical shape maximizes air flow, while casters provide for easy maneuverability.
Why use an Allerair UV air purifier ?
The use of an UV unit can improve the air quality and ameliorate the hygiene of the ambient air in most environments. These air purifiers can be used to sterilize the air in clinics, laboratories, computer clean rooms, isolation wards, etc. They can be also used to improve the air quality in most homes, and therefore reduce human exposure to a multitude of airborne matter, which would normally increase ones chances of becoming infected.
An UV air purifier will kill this matter therefore saving an immune system response.
Allerair UV air purifiers are characterized by no ozone emissions. Independent studies have proven that prolonged exposure to ozone may have a bad influence on your health.
Why is mold dangerous ?
Mycotoxins are a byproduct of molds and can affect humans as well as animals and symptoms tend to
disappear once toxinogenic molds are removed. Humidifiers, cooling systems, spas, are breeding grounds for microscopic organisms. most of which are harmless, but
unfortunately not all. Microscopic fungi are typically carried through the air. High indoor humidity can help sustain spores, which then can attack living cells and hence cause infection. In response, this can trigger an immune
response and therefore lead to hypersensitivity and thereafter to allergies.
Allerair's UV air purifiers will lower spores count more than if it were done through ventilating a room at a rate of 100 air exchanges per hour. The general normal rate of air exchanges for most homes, over the same period of time is no more than a half dozen times
The Allerair 5000 Exec UV purifies air in rooms of up to 1500 sq. ft.
