How it Works
The air passes through a pleated Carbon Pre-filter which removes lint and large particles to extend the life of the HEPA filter. Smaller particles then pass through a long-life, 99.97% HEPA (High Efficiency Particulate Air) Media Filter which captures particles 0.3 micron (1/84,000 of an inch) and larger.
The clean air passes through a reflection chamber where two Ultraviolet Germicidal Lamps emit powerful UVC light rays which are designed to kill or inhibit bacteria, viruses, mould, fungus and microbial growth. These are non-ozone producing lamps. The Ultraviolet Lights are also used to activate the unique CinQuartz PCO filter located below the UV lamps.
The Photo Catalytic Oxidation (PCO) Filter is a Quartz media coated with nano-particles of Titanium Dioxide (TiO2). The combined action of the UV light and the TiO2 decomposes organic materials into basic molecules such as H2O and CO2 and reduces odours and VOC’s as a result.
A Carbon/Potassium Permanganate Final Filter further reduces VOC’s and light gases. Clean air is discharged back into the return air duct.
