Intelli-Pro Purifies the Air
1. Washable Pre Filter. The air first enters pre filter, capturing
the largest particles, which enhances the durability and
performance of the other filters.
2. Washable Dust Collector Plates. The
electrostatically-charged dust collector grid traps particles and
pollutants like a magnet. This is similar to Friedrich C**0A, which
is Consumer Reports' top-rated air purifier.
3. Activated Carbon Filter. The best type of air filter for
trapping chemicals, gases, odors and cigarette smoke. According to
Penn State Dept. of Aerobiological researchers, carbon filters
serve to remove odors, volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and
chemicals that other filters cannot.
4. High-Efficiency HEPA Filter. The most effective type of air
filter at capturing dust, allergens and other solid particles
(including bacteria). HEPA filters are recommended by the U.S.
Department of Homeland Security.
5. Photocatalytic oxidation filter, TiO2 (titanium dioxide) filter;
which effectively reduces chemicals, bacteria and odors. When
combined with the UV light, TIO2 produces "super-oxide ions" and
"hydroxyl radicals" (which are highly reactive electrons). These
electrons have proven to be effective at destroying and/or
neutralizing a wide variety of pollutants, including various
chemicals, bacteria and odors.
6. Germicidal UV Lamp. The most effective way to destroy
micro-organisms, such as germs, viruses, fungi (such as mold) and
bacteria. Also destroys micro-organisms including those that are
trapped by the HEPA air filter, preventing them from reproducing
and recirculating through the room. UV lamps are recommended by the
U.S. Centers of Disease Control.
7. Safe and Effective Ionizer. Circulates trillions of negative
ions to neutralize floating pollutants throughout the room. A
Journal of Hygiene study found negative ions to improve efficiency
of filter units, and multiple studies (including those by the U.S.
Dept. of Agriculture) have found ionizers to be highly effective
against dust, bacteria, etc. Finally, the Intelli-Pro's ionizer is
proven to be safe.
