<p><em>Most purifiers cannot completely remove fine lung-penetrating particles, lingering odors, toxic volatile gasses, or secondhand smoke, so most of the industry concentrates on products which simply make things look clean!</em></p>
<p><a href="http://www.lifefacilities.com/aire8482-purifier-p-43.html">The Sun Aire™ Air Purifier</a> safely destroys micro &amp; macro organisms such as bacteria, viruses, mold, mildew and fungi freeing you of allergy and asthma symptoms.</p>
<p><em>Before you buy an air purifier check an air purifier’s efficiency rating.</em></p>
<p>The Sun Aire Air Purifier uses their own Photon UVC Lamp method (<em>like the sun</em>) to safely clean the air you breathe while producing no harmful side effects in an area of up to 2,000 square feet.</p>
<p><em>It is important to know how the Air Purifier works.</em></p>
<p>Room air is pre filtered as it enters the unit. The air is circulated around ultra-violet and anti-germicidal lamp. Thus it is &#8220;energized&#8221; into allotropic oxygen, using this cool, safe, photon process. The &#8220;energized&#8221; air is blown out the front of the machine and enters your indoor environment, seeking out contaminates in every corner. When the &#8220;energized oxygen&#8221; comes into contact with a Particulate, Pathogen or Gas, the activated atoms attach themselves to the contaminate. If the contaminate is a gas, it changes its molecular structure. If the contaminate is a particle, it oxidizes it. The patented Photozone Advanced Photo Oxidation (APO) process, generates ozone, but has some significant differences: The special Photozone UV lamps produce the exact wavelengths needed to produce not only ozone, but other higher forms of activated oxygen as well. No significant corrosive nitric oxides are present. The gas is full of negative ions. Note the similarity to the negative ion avalanche effect noted by the Japanese physicist in the section on cold process ozone. An analysis of the compounds in Photozone gas is as follows:<br />
•    Ozone, 03, 66.7%<br />
•    Hydroxy Radical, OH, 14.7%<br />
•    Hydroperoxy Radical, H02, 6.3%<br />
•    Hydrogen Peroxide, H202, 5.9%<br />
•    Atomic Oxygen, 0, 4.4%<br />
•    Other Oxidants, 2.0%<br />
•    Nitrogen Oxides, NO, &lt;0.1%</p>
<p>Also note that the lifetime, washable 0.5 micron 2-stage electrostatic pre-filter is an important feature of this product and alone will save you approximately $100 &#8211; $200 per year in expensive replacement filtering media such as Hepa, Charcoal or Carbon.</p>
<p><em> </em></p>
<p><em>If you need an air purifier primarily for odor and gas control, you would want an air purifier that will first remove the majority of the particulates in a pre-filter and then have the gases and odors removed.</em></p>
<p>In addition to ridding your environment of the Lung Damaging Particles, the Sun Aire™ Air Purifier also neutralizes the offensive odors caused by smoke, pets, cooking, chemicals, carpet, paints, solvents and more.</p>
<p><em>The size matters.</em></p>
<p>Measuring 11&#8243;x10&#8243;x8&#8243; and weighing only nine pounds the Purifier comes with a convenient carrying handle so you can purify the air no matter where you are.</p>
<p><em> </em></p>
<p><em>How efficient is it?</em></p>
<p>Both versions safely, efficiently and economically clean your air using the equivalent of a 60 watt light bulb and the lifetime .5 micron pre filter that never needs replacing.</p>
<p><em> </em></p>
<p><em>Don’t forget the outlook.</em></p>
<p>This standard unit comes in a durable stainless steel finish or in a beautiful Oak finish to discreetly blend in with your home decor while safely purifying your air.</p>
<p><em> </em></p>
<p><em>We support the country.</em></p>

<p>Without <a href="http://www.lifefacilities.com/aire8482-purifier-p-43.htm" target="_blank">clean air</a> we couldn&#8217;t breathe.</p>
<p>The World Health Organization states that 2.4 million people die each year from causes directly attributable to air pollution, with 1.5 million of these deaths attributable to indoor air pollution.</p>
<p>Epidemiological studies suggest that more than 500,000 people die each year from cardiopulmonary disease linked to breathing fine particle air pollution.</p>
<p>A study by the University of Birmingham has shown a strong correlation between pneumonia related deaths and air pollution.</p>
<p>The Environmental Protection Agency survey shows that indoor air pollution is among the top five environmental risks to public health. The study, itself reveals that indoor levels of pollutants are 25 times and occasionally up to 100 times, higher than outdoor levels.</p>
<p>More than 15 million Americans are estimated to have asthma, including one-in-13 school-age children, other 28 million suffer from hay fever and other allergies.</p>
<p>Direct causes of air pollution related deaths include aggravated asthma, bronchitis, emphysema, lung and heart diseases, and respiratory allergies. The health effects caused by air pollutants may range from subtle biochemical and physiological changes to difficulty in breathing, wheezing, coughing and aggravation of existing respiratory and cardiac conditions. These effects can result in increased medication use, increased doctor or emergency room visits, more hospital admissions and premature death. The human health effects of poor air quality are far reaching, but principally affect the body&#8217;s respiratory system and the cardiovascular system. Individual reactions to air pollutants depend on the type of pollutant a person is exposed to, the degree of exposure, the individual&#8217;s health status and genetics.</p>
<p>Many people don’t know that pollution may be worse inside their homes than outdoors. Our homes are now more energy efficient, but they are also rich in allergens, toxins, and health threatening agents. Especially vulnerable are our children, who inhale 50% more air per pound of body weight than adults. According to a study by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, indoor air contaminants are responsible for half of all illnesses. Tobacco smoke actually contains over 4,000 compounds, many of which are strong irritants. Cooking, cleaning and other home activities can additionally create indoor pollutants. Most homes generate about 40 pounds of dust per year for every 1.500 square feet of space. About 40,000 dust mites, a common cause of household allergies, can be found in only one ounce of dust. Even a spotless home can allow indoor pollutants to flourish. Bathrooms, damp basements, and even carpets and furniture are often the prime causes. Many airborne contaminants are invisible—spores, bacteria, particulates, gases and chemicals can all contribute to short and long-term health consequences, including headache, allergies, fatigue, asthma or even cancer.</p>
<p>So now we have to think. Is it worth spending money on medicines, doctors and treatments or we better prevent all of this? Don’t wait for bad things to happen when you can eliminate them.</p>
<p>To avoid the illness is hundred times better than to fight it after it has come.</p>
