Removing Contaminants
REMOVING AIR CONTAMINANTS

Inside your home, air cannot flow and disperse as easily as it can outside. Therefore, it can become more polluted with contaminants over time.

The US Environmental Protection Agency reports that the air inside the average home is up to 5 times more polluted than the air outside.

The Australian State of the Environment Report also revealed higher levels of formaldehyde, volatile organic compounds, nitrogen dioxide, fine particles and dust mite allergens in the air inside a typical house, compared to outside.

Australia and New Zealand have among the highest rates of hayfever sufferers in the world as a result of pollen and other nasal allergens, and many other health risks have been linked to breathing polluted indoor air.

The ATMOSPHERE™ Air Purifier system is proven to remove 99.99% of all particulates as small as 0.009 microns in size — so even airborne viruses can’t get past the powerful Clarus™ Filtration technology.
