The Environmental Protection Agency states - "In the last several years, a growing body of scientific evidence has indicated that the air within homes and other buildings can be more seriously polluted than the outdoor air in even the largest and most industrialized cities. Other research indicates that people spend approximately 90 percent of their time indoors. Thus, for many people, the risks to health may be greater due to exposure to air pollution indoors than outdoors."

Ventilation - In the past homes depended on natural leaks for ventilation to avoid the build-up of indoor air pollution. Today's energy efficient buildings reduce the amount of natural leaks. Controlled ventilation provides adequate building ventilation without comprising efficiency. |
Dehumidification - By keeping the relative humidity below 50%, Mold & Mildew will not have the moist conditions required for them to grow.
Dust Mites will also be eliminated because they need a relative humidity of 50% or higher to survive. | UV Air Purification - Ultraviolet Air Purifiers will destroy bio-chemical contaminants such as mold, mildew, fungus spores, formaldehyde, carbon monoxide, solvents and secondhand smoke. UV Air Purifiers also irradiate viruses and bacteria such as legionella and tuberculosis. |
