CARBON
Carbon is used to capture chemicals and odors, also referred to as VOCs. Chemicals and odors cannot be captured with media only filters.
Activated carbon collects chemicals and odors in a process called absorption.
NOTE:
Industry experience indicates that one (1) air change per hour generally provides adequate air cleaning. Actual results will depend on
multiple factors such as outdoor particulate levels, infiltration rate, indoor activities etc.
Generally speaking, the more air changes per hour provided, the more effective a HEPA system will be.

MEDIA FILTERS
Media filters strain particulates from the air. The filter media needs to have tiny holes to allow air to pass through, but not particulates. Filter types vary for all
sorts of purposes. The most effective and proven filter media is HEPA. HEPA Filter media is 99.97% efficient at capturing particles which are 0.3 micron in size
or larger.
THE 4 STAGE FILTRATION PROCESS
The 4 stage filtration process is used to create a very effective filtration system.
Stage 1: Pre-Filter - The Pre-Filter removes larger particulates from the air, thus prolonging the life of the HEPA Filter.
Stage 2: Carbon
- The carbon layer contains activated carbon for removing chemicals and odors from the air.
Stage 3: HEPA - The HEPA Filter removes 99.97% of particulates 0.3 micron and larger.
Stage 4: ActivePure
- ActivePure Technology sends friendly oxidizers into the room to continuously purify the air and deactivate contaminants on surfaces.
