Quadra Air Purifier: One Solution To Indoor Air Pollution


In recent years Americans have begun to recognize how important is is to treat outdoor pollution.  But, even as steps were being taken to treat the general atmosphere, a new problem surfaced when newer homes and buildings were constructed.  Modern buildings tend to be divided into sealed-off areas which can cause the air to become contaminated with the residue from mold, cigarette smoke, glue, paint, and more.  This has created the "sick building" syndrome and the the need for indoor air purifying systems.  These can range from entire room or building systems to individual room purifiers.  Some of the most common types are whole building/home systems, HEPA filtered air purifiers, ion generators, and ozone generators.

Each type of purifier has its own features which appeal to different uses.  Whole house or building systems generally filter a lot of pollutants out of the air but might be more than some people need.  Often air purifiers are only needed for single rooms, and there are several types of room air cleaners available.  HEPA filtered purifiers use charcoal and capture allergens.  They do not usually remove smoke or fumes.  Ozone  generators work by reacting with and destroying some bacteria and some chemicals, however they do not destroy allergens.  Ion generators work by "ionizing" the air  This causes particulates to gain a positive or negative charge which draws pollutants out of the air.  Because they are both effective and portable,  ion generators, such as the Quadra air purifier, have become popular

The Quadra air purifier is an Ionic Breeze product and cleans room air while neutralizing odors.  It is energy efficient and the cost of running it is about $10.00 per year. There are other ion generators available to fit individual needs.  For instance, GP Model Ionic Breeze with Germicidal reduces airborne pollen, dust mites, allergen, tobacco smoke, dander, and more. It replaces unpleasant odors with air that smells fresh and uses very little energy.  The SI830 Ionic Breeze Pro Series Air Purifier also includes a sterile light which helps kill airborne bacteria.  If noise reduction is an issue, the Ionic Breeze offers the GP Silent Air Purifier, which runs soundlessly.  With so many choices available, there is an air-purifying method for anyone who wants to control indoor pollution.
