United States Airsource 3000 Air Purifier

Specifications: New airsource 3000 usage recommendations When the airsource 3000 was first introduced, based upon testing verified by an independent engineer, a minimum square footage of 120 square feet was recommended.

Later, resulting largely from distributor and customer feedback rather than from additional testing, the minimum recommendation was increased to 1,000 square feet. This was intended to deter usage in small or unventilated spaces.

More advanced testing recently conducted at a prestigious university test facility showed that for ventilated spaces occupied by people and/or pets with average air quality, a minimum of 500 square feet is acceptable. Spot cleaning by temporarily placing the unit in an unoccupied area with the door closed (as in basements) also is acceptable.

Why use an air purifier? Every day the average adult breathes in up to 900 cubic feet of air. And the environmental protection agency States that since most people spend a majority of their lives indoors, the quality of indoor air is a major area of concern.

In fact, the large surface area of the lungs and the sensitivity of the tissues make them particularly susceptible to air pollution. Pollen, dander, smoke, and mold enter our bodies through our large and vulnerable lungs.

The airsource 3000 helps reduce all three of the major forms of air pollution: Particles such as pollen, pet dander, dust, and cigarette smoke; microbes such as mold and bacteria; and gases and odors.

That\'\'s especially critical since the environmental protection agency consistently ranks indoor air pollution among the top five environmental risks to public health.
