The air inside your home could be more harmful to your family than the air outside. In fact, indoor air pollution was recently named by the EPA as one of the top five risks to public health. That's because it's filled with mold spores, pet dander, bacteria and pollen. These can cause health issues such as Asthma and other respiratory problems. "Poor indoor air quality can cause or contribute to the development of chronic respiratory diseases such as asthma and hypersensitivity pneumonitis. In addition, it can cause headaches, dry eyes, nasal congestion, nausea and fatigue. People who already have respiratory diseases are at greater risk." - American Lung Association
While this whole home air cleaner is not as effective as the iWave-R. However, used in conjunction, can make a dramatic difference both eliminating and capturing air particulates.
iWave
iWave is an air purifying device that installs in any duct air conditioning system. Your home’s air passes over the iWave. Ions produced by the device reduce pathogens, viruses, allergens, particles, smoke and odors in the air. Consequently, adding an iWave will create a healthier environment, without producing any harmful byproducts. In short, iWave uses technology that creates equal amounts of positive and negative ions. These ions come in contact with viruses, bacteria or mold in your home. Specifically, the ions remove the hydrogen molecules causing the pathogens to have no source of energy. The ions also attach to allergens like pollen and other particles, causing them to band together until they are large enough to be caught by your ventilation system’s air filter.
