This is not a new technology: Ultraviolet light has been used since the 1930’s in a variety of industries including surgical instrument sterilization, food packaging and processing, post offices, hot tubs, restaurants and water purification.
The ultraviolet light ray breaks through the cell wall of the organism and destroys the DNA. This renders the organism unable to reproduce and cause illness. For example, when someone has a virus or a cold and coughs or sneezes in one room; those germs are spread to every room in the house, through the ventilation system, within 30 minutes.
With a BreatheCLEAN purifier attached to the ventilation system, those germs are destroyed and can not cause illness or irritate asthma or allergies.
Frequently Asked Questions:
Q. How much electricity does the BreatheCLEAN unit use?
A.It uses only 72 watts or 0.68 amps.
Q. Should I keep the fan running?
A. For the best results, yes. However it is not necessary. As long as you turn the fan on for 2-4 hours per day, you'll have excellent air purification throughout your entire home.
Q. Where should I locate the BreatheCLEAN unit if I already have a humidifier attached to the cold air return?
A. The best place would be above the humidifier. However, if there is no space above the humidifier and you want to locate it below the humidifier you must make sure it is at least twelve inches below the humidifier and you should place it as far below the humidifier as possible.
Q. We have a furnace filter. Isn't that enough to clean the air?
A. No. The BreatheCLEAN system does what filters can not do. The BreatheCLEAN system actually kills the organisms floating in your air. Filters just capture particulate that is floating, and often the organisms are so small that they flow right through most furnace filters.
Q. How often should the UV bulbs be replaced?
A. To maintain the highest efficiency and killing power the bulbs should be replaced once per year.
Q. Why do the bulbs need to be replaced if they are not burned out?
A. The ultraviolet wattage - which is the "killing power" - will start to diminish after twelve months.
Q. Is the "blue glow" that I can see in some of my vents dangerous to my eyes or skin?
A. The ultraviolet light is dangerous when it is in direct line of sight. The "blue glow" that you may see is being reflected through the ducts and is not dangerous to you. NEVER LOOK AT THE ULTRAVIOLET LIGHTS DIRECTLY. NEVER EXPOSE YOUR SKIN TO THE ULTRAVIOLET LIGHT DIRECTLY.
Q. What is the warranty?
A. Five years on the unit, and nine months on the bulbs.
Q. If our home has more than one furnace do I need more than one BreatheCLEAN Air Purification System and Allergy Fighter?
A. Yes. You need to install one per furnace system.
Q. How long is the power cord?
A. Twelve feet.
Q. What tools are included in the Installation Toolkit?
A. The kit includes a bi-metal hole saw and the two other drill bits needed for easy installation. The unit comes with a stick-on template for accurate drilling, and mounting screws.
Q. What tools will I need for installation?
A. You will need a power drill and screwdriver. That's it!
