The
ozone purifies the air by oxidation. Ozone is naturally occurring gas. It
is created by nature when lightning cuts through the oxygen molecule in
the air. It splits the O2 molecule into O3 which is ozone. The fresh
clean smell after a thunderstorm is the ozone that has just been created.
Ozone penetrates into the cellular structure of odor, bacteria and fungus
molecules, rupturing the cell wall of the contaminant. After this process
is complete, the contaminants and odors are greatly reduced. The second
step in this system is the ionization. There are two types of ionization.
The first is needlepoint ionization where the particulate in the air
directly in front of the unit is charged with negative ions. These ionic
charges attach to airborne particles such as smoke, dust, pollen, animal
dander, etc., forcing the particles to quickly drop out of the air in the
breathing environment, down to the ground. These needlepoint ionizers
usually cover a five to seven foot area in front area of the ionizer.
The second type of ionizer is called radio ionization. Radio ionization is
a newer technology that uses similar principles as needlepoint
ionization except that the radio ionizer uses a specialized and safe radio
wave that ionizes the air for aprox 50 feet right through the walls in all
directions. With radio ionization, you can actually drop particles {
allergens } out of the air in surrounding rooms. One unit can often
cover an entire home. These air purifiers work especially well on removing
cigar and cigarette smoke and their odors.
