What Happens In Airocide?

Each Airocide product has a fan that draws the air from your home into the unit. The air is slowly pushed across hollow glass tubes. These tubes are coated with what is called a catalyst. A catalyst is something that makes a chemical process easier. The name for this process is Photocatalytic Oxidation. It is safe, efficient, and has been proven to produce no harmful byproducts. This is the exact same process that NASA used as a VOC air purifier on the International Space Station.

Eye Catching Design

Airocide is the most technologically advanced air purifier on the market. Our mission was to make sure that the look complemented the performance. We have won an Edison award for our efforts, and our customers tell us that our air purifiers are a perfect match for the modern home. But, our design is not just meant to look good. It is critical to making sure that our NASA developed technology gets just the right amount of air to be as efficient as possible. This name for this is the Coanda effect.

Airocide is Better than The Rest

HEPA air purifiers will only trap particles .3 microns in size or larger. Most Bacteria, Mold Spores, Viruses, and VOCs will pass right through a filter and continue to be a problem in your home.

Airocide Technology Explained

Think about a screen door. Large particles are prevented from passing through it, while smaller things, like tiny particles, waft through unaffected. Filters work the same way. They’re ineffective against smaller particles. HEPA filters don’t destroy anything; they just trap what they can for later disposal. The result is that those smaller things, viruses and VOCs get past them.

Airocide is Completely Safe

Airocide is completely safe. So, safe it was used aboard a sealed space craft. In fact, the Airocide technology is cleared by the FDA as a Class 2 Medical Device. That means that it can be used in an operating room during a surgical procedure.

Airocide Has Easy Maintenance

Filters are dirty, use a lot of power, and have to be changed every couple of months. Airocide is different. It is clean, uses very little power, and requires minimal maintenance. You only have to change the reaction chambers once per year. That is it. It takes thirty seconds, and many customers say it is easier than changing a printer cartridge.

Airocide vs Other Air Purifiers

HEPA Filters

We are certainly not saying that HEPA filters are not useful. They absolutely are. But, if you find yourself in need of an air purification solution you don’t need to buy one. Why? You already have one in your home! Most modern homes have air conditioning and heating units. The filter that you change every one to three months is a HEPA filter. So, it is very likely that at this moment every square inch of air in your home is being pushed through a HEPA filter about once every hour. If you still experience adverse effects from your home’s air; you need something more than a HEPA filter. Airocide is the solution.

HEPA filters will only trap things that are .3 microns or larger in size. That sounds really small, but it is totally ineffective in eliminating the things you have read about here. Bacteria, Mold Spores, VOCs, and Viruses are just too small to be captured by a filter. Furthermore, Airocide is an elimination solution. It doesn’t trap things. It destroys them using a powerful Chemical process developed by NASA.

Airocide vs Other Air Purifiers

Ozone Generator

Let’s be clear about one thing; Airocide produces no Ozone. We have the lab results to prove it, and clearances from the FDA and California Air Resources Board to certify it. And, there is a very good reason we invested so much time in making sure that our products are Ozone free. Ozone is dangerous. It is a very reactive substance, which if inhaled, can cause serious health problems. It destroys lung tissue. Some places, like California, have rightly outright banned Ozone generators for use in populated spaces. But, there is still a lot of ambiguity out there about what is and what is not an Ozone Generator. Sometimes, products are labeled as Ion Generators, Electrostatic Precipitators, or Plasma Generators. But, don’t be fooled. These all produce harmful levels of Ozone.

Airocide vs Other Air Purifiers

PECO

PECO is a relatively new technology to appear on the air purifier market. It is often positioned as a “successor technology” to PCO (The Airocide Technology). But, again do not be fooled. PECO is a marketing term, not a scientific one. PCO is a Chemical phenomenon that was discovered by Japanese Scientists several decades ago. NASA was able to refine it for their purposes, and that is the technology which later became Airocide. You can take comfort in the fact that over thirty years of research and development went into your Airocide air purifier. The science is proven.

But, you don’t have to take our word for it. Go to your Google search bar, and enter PCO. You will see decades of research and proof. Then try PECO. We won’t say anything further, but let’s say that the results won’t be from NASA or reputable labs.

Airocide vs Other Air Purifiers

Charcoal Filters

Charcoal has been around for a long time as an air purification solution. However, it has its flaws. The filters you are probably most familiar with is what is called a “Honeycomb” construct, because it looks like a honeycomb. It is easy, and inexpensive to produce. So, it has achieved a large share of the air purifier market over the years. The problem is that this particular design limits the surface area of the air cleaning charcoal sites. So, the filter tends to saturate very quickly. In some cases, they are only really effective for about two weeks. That means that they have to be changed frequently, and this becomes very costly over time. Of course, it suffers from the same problem that HEPA filters have. It is not an elimination solution. It simply traps what is in the air.

Only the Airocide APS-200 PM 2.5 uses Charcoal Filtration. But, the product we use is remarkably different from what is described above. It is not a Honeycomb filter. It is called a Microarray. This means that a piece of pure carbon was bored using a laser. This creates substantially more surface area, and makes it considerably longer lasting. However, in our product it is used to remove the fraction of PM 2.5 that is gas. This would be things like Nitrogen Dioxide. In Airocide products the VOC air purifier function is fulfilled by PCO. So, you never need to worry about frequent filter changes.

Airocide Eliminates

No matter what the problem is in your home’s air, Airocide has a solution. Our core NASA developed technology will eliminate anything based on the element carbon. This includes VOCs, Pollen, Mold Spores, Bacteria, Viruses, and Odors. If your problem is one of these, then the APS-200 is the best Airocide product for you.

But, in 2018 Airocide went a step further. Our research team figured out how to add two of the most advanced filter technologies to our existing NASA PCO technology. This expands the range of problems that Airocide technology can solve. The APS-200 PM 2.5 can eliminate all of the carbon-based problems listed above, and also eliminate PM 2.5.

Experience Better AUTO Airocide

Airocide was designed for the modern home. It is safe, efficient, and looks good. We suggest placing it in your bedroom, and running it continuously. Airocide will adjust its speed, and noise level automatically to accommodate your schedule.

High setting by day

Full Speed for peak pollution time.

During the day, while you are gone, the Airocide will run at full speed on the High Setting. Day time is peak pollution producing time, and the Airocide will work to overcome this. Outside activity, such as passing cars, produce air pollutants which enter your home through the air conditioning system. And, inside the rays of the sun accelerate production of carbon based air pollutants. But, there is no need to worry. Airocide will be eliminating all of this peak pollution.

low setting by Night

The same protection, but quieter.

At night the world slows down, and so do you. It is time to get some much-needed rest for the day ahead. The Airocide unit will automatically switch to the low mode when the sun goes down. It will still be providing the same level of protection, just more quietly. You don’t even need to think about it.
