Several customers have asked us what they can do to make their homes safer during the COVID-19 pandemic. While no product could ever promise to protect you from any virus, university studies have demonstrated the effectiveness of the Air Scrubber and ActivePure technology in improving indoor air quality and reducing the spread of airborne contaminants.
As Autumn temperatures drop, many families begin spending more time indoors. Combine that with the onset of a new cold-and-flu season and preparations for the holidays, and this quickly becomes the season to think about the indoor air quality (IAQ) of your home.
IAQ is not a term most people consider. More likely, your thoughts are of the home feeling ‘stale’ or ‘stagnant’, or perhaps you just want to ‘freshen things up’ before the holidays.
As homeowners, we sometimes tend to treat air quality as an afterthought, but it is a matter that deserves serious attention. It isn’t just about the air feeling stale. Your home is filled with irritants and allergens – from bacteria and pollen to mold and pet dander. And, all those little boogers could be taking a toll on your family’s health.
In fact, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) released a statement saying that the levels of this type of pollutant are 2 to 5 times higher in most homes than in the outdoors.
billyGO proudly offers the Air Scrubber with ActivePure technology to our customers. It removes up to 99.9% of harmful contaminants in the home.
We install the Air Scrubber directly into your duct system. As air pushes through the system, it comes in contact with the Air Scrubber’s titanium dioxide-coated honeycomb matrix, which is the first step in treating the air.
As a second line of defense, the Air Scrubber also exposes the air to a germ-killing UV light.
This process is more effective and efficient than the old-fashioned brush systems some companies use to clean ducts. The oscillating of those brushes can actually damage your ductwork and leave it operating less efficiently in the aftermath.
With the Air Scrubber, cleaning the ducts is just the beginning. After the air passes through the catalytic process and UV light, the supercharged ions push through the remaining ductwork and into the house killing contaminants and pathogens along the way.
The clusters of charged hydrogen and oxygen molecules envelop the entire home, destroying odor-causing bacteria, mold, fungi… It’s even been demonstrated that families living in a home with the Air Scrubber are less likely to spread colds and viruses to each other.
This is a powerful, proprietary technology that is frequently used to treat houses overrun with black mold. It was used to clean and purify the air in the Pentagon after September 11. And, it’s the only air cleaning technology to receive the CST seal from NASA.
