Central Air Systems
.
HEPA (High Efficiency Particulate Air) is a filtration standard created by the U.S.
Atomic Energy Commission.
To pass this standard, a filter must be 99.97% efficient @
0.3microns. Due to their extremely high efficiency, HEPA filters have
become widely
used in medical, electronic and industrial applications.
Perfect Seal HEPA
 |
Many air filtration systems on the market today, boast that they are HEPA filters, but fail to meet HEPA standards. This is often due to an improper seal. If the air can pass around the HEPA media, then it cannot acheive HEPA results. | |
 |
That is why Amaircare developed the 'Perfect Seal HEPA'. The Perfect Seal HEPA ensures that air passing through the HEPA system, is filtered through the HEPA media and cannot escape around it. | |
 |
Each and every HEPA filter that Amaircare builds, is tested with a laser particle counter to ensure that it does indeed, meet or exceed HEPA standards. A Perfect Seal HEPA sticker is then placed on the unit so you know it meets HEPA standards! |
The importance of reducing levels of contaminants in the home.
The air inside a typical home is up to 5 times dirtier than the air outside! The same insulation and seals that keep warm or cold air inside your home, also keep in chemicals and particulates. These materials can emanate from a number of household products and cleaners found throughout the home.
Everyone has a physical tolerance level for airborne chemicals and particulates. Some people have a higher tolerance than others for dirty air, but it affects everyone. Children whose respiratory system is still developing are at greater risk of asthma or allergies if they are exposed to many airborne contaminants. Increased levels of contaminants in the air can even affect the well-being of fully developed, healthy adults. The higher the level of contaminants in the air, the quicker a person can reach their tolerance level. Then the contaminants could start to damage their respiratory system and their general health.
The key is to reduce the amount of contaminants taken into the body. This can be done by reducing the number of particles in the air. HEPA filtration is a standard developed by the U.S. Atomic Energy Commission and is used to remove microscopic particles from the air. HEPA filtration in the home will reduce the number of contaminants in the home. The higher airflow of the HEPA filtration system, the quicker the levels will drop.
Significant reduction of contaminants in the home can help the
body recover from constant exposure to contaminants outside the home. We like to say
this reduction in the stress to our respiratory system can be compared
to a good nights sleep for a tired athlete.
