Airlite Air Purifier
What is the Airlite?
Despite the smaller size of these portable air filters, they still use the same photocatalytic technology as our Airwise models to oxidize odors and destroy microbes such as fungi, mold, bacteria, and viruses. While these photocatalytic air filters do not use the same Wisepointe® technology as the larger Airwise models, the innovative and lightweight design of these portable air filters does employ a technique we like to call Zone Purification®. Thus these portable air filters make it ideal for travel and small areas.
Unlike many highly hyped devices, Airlite portable air filters really work! This photocatalytic oxidation air purifier is incredibly simple to use – plug it in, turn it on, and soon you'll enjoy cleaner, healthier air. It's silent (no fans), maintenance-free (no filters to clean or replace), compact and portable, and affordable.
Airlite works "outside the box", so it's not necessary for polluted air to actually enter the photocatalytic oxidation air purifier. Instead, Airlite creates inductive warmth, drawing humidity into the purifier. When humidified air enters the target area, the ultraviolet, germicidal lamp activates the catalyst to produce superoxide ions and hydroxyl radicals as part of a reaction called photocatalysis. These molecules then migrate throughout the area (can not go through walls or closed doors, but can go around corners) to neutralize toxins by breaking them up on a molecular level, destroying any micro-organism down to .001 micron.
There are many forms of small particulate matter.
Some examples include fumes, viruses, mold, and bacteria. The small size of these particles makes them detrimental to your health as they easily infiltrate the lungs. Compounding this is the fact that they tend to stay airborne, increasing the likelihood of ingestion.
Indoor gases, such as chloroform, benzene, and hydrogen sulfide are released from furniture, carpeting, cleansers, printers, insulation, insecticides, and hair sprays. VOCs, including benzene and trichloroethylene, contain carbon and easily evaporate into the air, making them readily inhalable. The odors that we all would rather not smell are typically VOCs or other noxious gases.
Zone Purification®
The best way to purify the air in your home is to break down the space into multiple zones and place an Airlite photocatalytic oxidation air purifier in each one. Zone Purification® is far more effective and efficient than trying to treat an entire home from one location with a single filter or purifier.
By using our Zone Purification® method with our portable air filters, you leave little to no chance that the many types of harmful particulate matter or volatile organic compounds can stick around and cause trouble!
