Respiratory Allergie and Asthma

Most people spend an average of 90% of their lives indoors.

Airborne allergens such as pollens, mold spores, cat or dog dander, ozone, house dust mite skeletons and excrements, trigger allergic reactions to sensitized individuals.

Airfree effectively destroys such particles. No living microorganism or protein can resist temperatures above 200 C (aprox. 400F)

Destroying airborne organic allergens at work and at home makes a significant contribution towards improved indoor air quality. That is why every successful allergen avoidance program should include Airfree as part of an overall allergen avoidance strategy.

 Dust mite and other infect allergens

Many allergic reactions are caused by dust mites. The fine dust generated from their skeletons and faeces contain hazardous fungus and allergens that when inhaled cause allergic reaction. Those allergens and fungus are totally destroyed inside Airfree ceramic core.

Fungus reduction by Airfree in the indoor environment also reduces dust mite population as they need certain types of fungus to survive.

Why does a dust mite allergic (as myself) get better with Airfree? 

Basically, dust mite allergens, of which DERP1 is most famous one (skeletons, excrements), are lighter than dust mites.

If they are lighter, they become airborne dust. Once they are airborne, they are destroyed by the Airfree heat as Cambrige test illustrate.

Another theory is that some dust mite species like D. farinae need yeast to help their digestion (1). As you may know Airfree reduces yeast and mold (source: ÁCAROS CONTAMINANTES DE AMBIENTES E CAUSADORES DE DOENÇAS ALÉRGICAS NO HOMEM, CROCE, J. - Professor de Pós Graduação em Alergia na Faculdade de Medicina da USP..BAGGIO, D. - Foi professor do Departamento de Parasitologia do Instituto de Ciências Biomédicas.)

D pteronyssinus dust mites eat no fat, only human skin. If fat is found on the skin they need Aspergillus mold to help digestion (1). ( source: ÁCAROS CONTAMINANTES DE AMBIENTES E CAUSADORES DE DOENÇAS ALÉRGICAS NO HOMEM, CROCE, J. - Professor de Pós Graduação em Alergia na Faculdade de Medicina da USP.. BAGGIO, D. - Foi professor do Departamento de Parasitologia do Instituto de Ciências Biomédicas.)

With Airfree, there is less mold available in the environment, therefore dust mites might starve. This is only a theory, very difficult to prove since tests would not separate living dust mite from the dead ones.

Chicken Farms (includes turkeys, ducks and other confined birds)

One of the major concerns in modern Industrial Aviculture is the breathing pathology. The majority of airborne virus, bacteria, and fungus find their way into the target cells through the airways to achieve the continuation of its life cycle.

The simultaneous conjunction of virus and bacteria associated to adverse environmental conditions, develop extremely complex clinical situations of difficult solutions with clear performance interference, risking in many cases the exploration economical survival.

For instance, the presence or absence of certain pathogenic agents like for instance the Mycoplasm can determine the success or failure of the business. It is up to the entrepreneur and poultry technicians to be aware of those facts and to establish needed strategies to reduce the risk of infection pressure to a minimum, as well as the pathology risks in their explorations via adequate prophylaxis, disinfections, and correct sanitary vacancies.

Airfree AGRO electric devices provide a priceless contribution to the reduction of infection pressure and consequently of the effective general pathology. Through this new air sterilization concept, based on a new patented revolutionary thermal process, a dramatic viral, microbial, and fungal pollution reduction is achieved in the chicken house ambience with consequent reflex in the flock sanitary status. The Airfree AGRO action mechanism is a natural process characterised by being innocuous, no microbial induction resistance, and guaranteed efficiency provides a safe product to the final consumer.

Pets and birds

Airfree destroys airborne fungus (mold spores), bacteria, and viruses, protecting people and bird’s fragile respiratory breathing airways.
Airfree reduces organic smells.
Regardless of how much pet owners care about their cats and dogs, house will gradually bear that distinctive and noticeable cat or dog smell.
Airfree is the solution to drastic erase those smells from their homes. Airfree’s powerful sterilizing ceramic core will simply destroy those airborne micro-organisms and provide lasting and healthy clean air.

Airfree extraordinary technology is totally harmless and maintenance free.

Ozone (O3)

Ozone is a very toxic gas that according to EPA can damage lung tissue, cause chest pain, throat irritation and trigger asthma. The FDA, the US Food and Drug Administration, recommends not using any equipment directly or indirectly generating Ozone in Hospitals or in rooms where the ill are present.

Airfree is proven to reduce Ozone levels in 26%, every time air passes through its interior. 

Pollens

Pollens are no exception to other microorganisms, and are totally destroyed when passing through Airfree patented sterilizing ceramic core.

Mold and Mildew

mold spores are always present in the air. Those airborne microorganisms will attach themselves to walls, furniture, and other surfaces in any room. When the temperature and moisture level in the environment are suitable for germination, the fungus spores burst and grow into new mold or mildew colonies.

Airfree sterilization ceramic core destroys 99.99% of mold spores.

Airfree usually provides 80% reduction in room airborne spores and other microorganisms that will translate into safer environment where virtually no mold will develop for as long as Airfree is protecting the room. 

Viruses, Bacteria, Fungus and Germs

Airfree destroys all airborne threatening microorganisms cited above when passing inside its patented ceramic core mini-ducts, including the smallest microbes like those of meningitis, pneumonia, and scarlet fever that can not be trapped in air filters or in other equipment using different technologies. Scientists confirm that virus, fungus, and bacteria molecular structure (composed by proteins), can not survive high temperatures as those seen inside Airfree patented ceramic core.
Airfree destroys any microorganism regardless of how small and hazardous they might

Dust mites and other insect allergens

Many allergic reactions are caused by dust mites. The fine dust generated from their skeletons and faeces contain hazardous fungus and allergens that when inhaled or in touch with the skin cause allergic reactions. When passing through Airfree ceramic core those allergens and fungus are totally destroyed.

Dust mites require certain types of fungus to survive. The reduction of fungus colonies translates into dust mite population reduction.


Sterilizer Technology
How does the Airfree Air Sterilizer work?

Contaminated air silently enters the Airfree air sterilizers by air convection and is sterilized inside Airfree's patented ceramic core where all microorganisms are destroyed at high temperatures.

Regardless of how hazardous a virus, fungus or bacteria might be they can not resist the powerful heat inside the ceramic core and are incinerated.

The heat inside the ceramic core forces sterilized air out to the heat exchanger causing air convection, which generates negative pressure underneath the ceramic core, so contaminated air is sucked in at the Airfree unit's bottom air inlets in a continuous and silent thus efficient airflow.

The combination of the ceramic core, special ceramic and airflow reduces at the same time toxic ozone by 26%. Ozone is a lung irritant, emitted by many air cleaners in the market that can trigger allergic reactions, even in small amounts.


FAQ?

How does Airfree work?

Airfree incinerates microorganisms at its heated capillaries. Contaminated air is dragged into Airfree’s ceramic core by air convection and microorganisms are destroyed at high temperatures regardless of how resistant and dangerous they might be.

Are there any side effects?

No. Airfree’s new technology uses heat to purify the air. No side effects, no emissions, NO IONS, nor new particles are generated. Airfree should be used in all homes and offices quietly, constantly and efficiently purifying the air.

What is Airfree’s air cleaning capacity?

Airfree P80 was designed for rooms up to 344.4 sq. ft. (32m²) or 2825 cu. ft. (80 m³); Airfree P60 was designed for rooms up to 258 sq. ft. (24m²) or 2118 cu. ft. (60m³); Airfree WM 60, Enviro 60 and AGRO were designed for rooms up to 250 sq. ft. (24m²) 2118 cu. ft. (60m³) .

Can I install Airfree in my walking closet?

Yes, as long as it has at least 400cu.ft (11m³)*. Airfree should not be placed under shelves or its efficiency will be reduced.

* as reference 400cu.ft (11m³) is approximately 7’x7’

Can I use Airfree in air conditioned rooms?

Yes.

How do I know if Airfree is no longer working?

Check the top lid and if warm Airfree is working.

Can I place Airfree at the corridor to reach the whole house?

No. Airfree will just reduce air pollution in the corridor’s area.

Can I place Airfree in a closed room?

Yes. Please remember such a room must have at least 400cu.ft (11m3)*.

* as a reference 400cu.ft is approximately 7’x7’

Is it necessary to keep doors and windows closed?

No.

Does Airfree eliminate bacteria and viruses?

Yes. Unlike the air filters in the market Airfree is more efficient with smallest microorganisms as they are easily carried by Airfree’s airflow into its heated ceramic core.

Can I change Airfree from one room to another?

No. Airfree must always be plugged in the same room 24 hours a day. Airfree’s patented technology works gradually and cannot have its cycle interrupted. Moving it from one room to another will interrupt the cycle.

Should I turn off Airfree when I leave house?

No. Airfree must always be on.

What happens if Airfree is disconnected or there was a black out?

Airfree will take approximately the same time to recover the previous reduced contamination level.

Does CADR measure the effectiveness of the Airfree?

Not at all. CADR is not designed to test the Airfree technology.

The AHAM seal (usually found on the back of an air cleaner’s box) lists three Clean Air Delivery Rate (CADR) numbers: one for tobacco smoke, one for pollen and one for dust. The CADR indicates volume of filtered air delivered by an air cleaner. The higher the tobacco smoke, pollen and dust numbers, the faster the unit filters the air.

The main reason why CADR is not designed for Airfree is because Airfree does not filter but destroys microorganisms instead, CADR only applies to volume of filtered air delivered by an air cleaner as stated above.

CADR does not measure microorganism reduction like mold and bacteria only detectable by a microbiology lab.

Airfree destroys (not trap or attract to other surface) any microorganism regardless of how small they might be. 99,99% of all organic particles are fully destroyed when passing through the Airfree U.S. patented ceramic core.

How does Airfree destroy dust mites?

Mold reduction in the atmosphere causes a reduction in the mold dependant dust mite population. 
Airfree also destroys the harmful toxins and fungus freed by dust mite feces that trigger respiratory allergies.

How does Airfree eliminate fungi?

As mentioned before, Airfree eliminates airborne microorganisms included fungi and spores. By eliminating spores no new colonies will be formed, meaning less future fungi and spores in the air.

How does Airfree destroy viruses?

Those microscopic microorganisms are easily eliminated inside Airfree’s ceramic core capillaries. Inside temperature of Airfree capillaries is triple the temperature required to incinerate them. Airfree is your largest ally in respiratory disease prevention.

Does Airfree reduce tobacco smell?

Yes, Airfree reduces any kind of organic smell in the ambience including tobacco.

Does Airfree release any gas or chemical product?

No. Airfree’s sterilization process is natural. Please check our website for conclusive tests regarding particles and O3.

Does Airfree heat up a room?

No. Airfree does not increase room temperature. To have an idea 2 Airfrees plugged in the same room will contribute as much heat as the presence of one adult in that same room.

Does Airfree provoke any change in room’s the relative humidity?

No.

Does Airfree need filter replacement?

No. Airfree’s technology uses heat and not filters nor dangerous emissions.

Does Airfree consume a lot of energy?

No. Airfree’s consumption is just 48 Watts for P80, 45 Watts for P60, 46 Watts for WM 60, Enviro 60 and AGRO.

Does Airfree anti-stress light interfere with Airfree sterilizing function?

No. The anti-stress light has an aesthetic effect and can be relaxing too or simply used as a night light in children or newborn bed rooms. According to chromo therapy the blue light has calming and relaxing effect.

How does Airfree clean the air without a fan?

Airfree's patented Technology TSS™ (Thermodynamic Sterilizing System) generates airflow quietly through air convection and sterilizes air at high temperatures. The airflow generated by Airfree happens by air convection and equals 14 m³/hr according to the SP Swedish National Laboratory test shown on our website. Cooler and contaminated air is then continuously drawn into Airfree®. There is no need for a noisy fan. Airfree®'s exclusive TSS™ technology has been proven to be effective by some of the world's most prestigious independent laboratories in six different countries in real working conditions. 

Does Airfree reduce the necessity of dusting surfaces?

A The operation of an Airfree unit does not eliminate the usual dusting frequencies. Airfree is not an air filter that “traps” dust. It incinerates dust particles turning them into harmless components.

Can a particle counter measure the Airfree efficiency?

Can particle counters measure the Airfree efficiency?

No.
Several air purifiers are using particle counters in order to measure their filters’ efficiency.

Airfree does not filter nor trap particles. The patented Airfree TSS technology is not a filter. Therefore, the particle counter is not designed to measure the efficiency of Airfree’s technology.

Why is that?

Firstly, particle counters are used to count the quantity of particles at the outlet of an air purifier. As mentioned before, Airfree is not a filter and does not trap particles; therefore, the quantity of particles entering and exiting the unit will be pretty much the same. However - and here goes the explanation as to why the Airfree technology is efficient and the particle counter does not recognize it:

Secondly, the particle counter will not tell you if the particles are alive or not - harmful or not.

What are particles?

Particles are any air contaminants floating in your room, such as: dust mite feces and skeletons, hair, dead skin, pollens, bacteria (dead or alive), viruses (dead or alive), fabrics remains, mold spores (dead or alive), pet dander, car emissions and many others.

The Airfree TSS technology destroys microorganisms by combustion (application of high temperatures of around 400ºF) and hereby turns micro-organic contaminants into denatured particles. When organic particles are combusted, their proteins are denatured, i.e. the particles lose their original structure and are made harmless. These harmless particles are released back into the environment after the combustion process and are therefore still detected by the particle counter. However, as mentioned before, the counter will not tell if the particles are harmful or not, dead or alive.

How do we know if invisible particles floating in the room are harmless/destroyed?

Rather than presenting customers with CADR or CFM ratings, we at Airfree go straight to the point and prove to our customers what they really expect from an air purifier – real benefits – Airfree aims at goals and not at the means. The goal is to see a mold and bacteria reduction in the room and that is what our patented Airfree TSS technology proves 

Considering the before said, the Airfree TSS technology offers several advantages such as:

* Maintenance free operation
* Environmental protection – no replacement
* No need to touch or change contaminated parts

 

The claims Airfree makes on mold and bacteria reduction are backed by independent tests performed in real working environments.

We at Airfree go straight to the point and inform our customers of what the proven mold and bacteria reduction of our patented TSS (Thermodynamic Sterilization System) technology is – 85 – 95% (please see our tests at …). Airfree destroys all airborne microorganisms, no matter what size.

Our final question to the customer: Do you prefer to purchase an air purifier which claims a high CADR or CFM rating or one that offers the real benefits: mold, bacteria and ozone reduction in real working conditions? We at Airfree show real facts. The decision is up to you. We will be glad to clarify any remaining doubts.
