effect of odors/chemical vaPors on
indoor occuPant comfort levels
The effects of odors and chemical vapors on your
family’s comfort and health depend on the types and
concentrations of them within your home, as well as
your individual sensitivity. Generally, the more odors and
chemical vapors in the home, the more likely you are to
suffer an adverse reaction, such as dizziness or shortness
of breath. This is especially true if you have asthma or
some other respiratory ailment.

One unit should be used in each air handler and model selection should be based on the size of the air handler. PureAir units should NOT be placed in the
supply side (after the heater) because the higher temperature may compromise system performance.

The revolutionary PureAir™ Air Purification
System consists of a MERV 16 Precision Pleat™

activated by ultraviolet (uVA) light.

three fast, effective steps
The PCO process involves three steps:
1) The Precision Pleat MERV 16, 5" filter captures particles and bioaerosols as small as .01 micron, removing them from
the airstream—contaminants that standard filtration systems simply can’t stop.
†
ꢀ) As the odor- and chemical-vapor-filled airstream flows over the uVA lamps, the airstream is exposed to the
catalytic surface (titanium-dioxide-coated metal filter).
3) The light energy and water vapor in the air activate the titanium dioxide catalyst, which generates hydroxyl radicals.
These hydroxyl radicals attack the carbon components of the odors and chemical vapors, breaking them down into
carbon dioxide and water.
The PureAir™ Air Purification System is the only single system that
effectively combats all three types of contaminants.
