Achoo! Sniff Sniff. Allergies are very common; in fact 50 million people in the U.S. suffer from allergy symptoms and over half the population test positive to at least one allergen. A lot of people suffer from allergies but very little people do anything to help prevent them from occurring. Many people are unaware that there are products available on the market today that can actually severely reduce the amount of allergy symptoms they receive in a day. The product I am referring to is the IQAir HealthPro Plus Air Purifier and I am about to answer a few questions to show just how well this amazing product works.

Is the IQAir a way to get rid your house of allergy and asthma symptoms? Absolutely, the HyperHEPA Filtration found in the IQAir purifier has the ability to remove the source of allergic reactions such as particles, pollen, dust, dust mites, dust mites feces, pet dander, bacteria, viruses, mold spores, and other various harmful particles from the air. Capturing all of these particles found in the air makes it easier to breath and gives you a healthier household.

How would you define a HyperHEPA filter and what makes it different from the average filter? Regular HEPA filters have the ability to filter out 99.5% of dangerous particles at a size of 0.3 microns from the air and although impressive, 90 percent of the particles in the air are smaller than 0.3 microns; making many filtration systems using a standard HEPA filter ineffective of trapping and destroying particulates such as viruses, smoke, etc. Another advantage the IQAir has over other air purifiers is that it is a well-engineered piece of equipment. Unlike other filtration systems the IQAir will not leak harmful particles back into the air due to the system not being sealed or designed in a proper manner. The difference between the IQAir and a standard filter is effectiveness at which it works. The IQAir filters at a staggering 99.5% at 0.003 microns, making the IQAir 100 times more effective than the average HEPA filter.

So it can filter down to 0.003 Microns, but what about particles smaller than that? Anything smaller than 0.003 microns becomes a gas and is smaller than the smallest virus or bacteria. This means that virtually every particle is being filtered out thanks to the HyperHEPA filtration. Believe it or not, the IQAir HealthPro Plus is the first Air Purifier to be certified under the most stringent filter standard EN 1822!

What about the particulates that are less than 0.003 Microns what happens to them? Anything lower then a 0.003 Micron is a gas. This means that IQAir's pioneering of technology has the ability to remove virtually all particles, bacteria and viruses from the air. The IQAir works so well it is actually the first air purifier to pass one of the harshest filtration tests in the world: the EN 1822.

How many filters are built into the IQAir and how often do they have to be changed? The IQAir Health Pro Plus uses a total of 3 filters, including the PreMax Pre-Motor Filter, The V-5 Cell Gas and Odor Eliminator and a HyperHepa Filter. The PreMax Pre-Motor Filter's task is to remove 90% of harmful particles from the air. Due to the fact that this filter is in consistent contact with particles, this filter should be changed every six to eighteen months. The next filter in the system is the V-5 Cell which sole responsibility to remove gasses and odors from the air, this filter should typically be replaced every 2 to 5 year. The last filter found in the IQAir filtration system is the HyperHEPA. This filter's job is to remove any of particles the previous filters did not catch, due to the fact this filter will eventually fill with tiny particles it is important to change this filter every 2 to 5 years, for optimal results. Designed to be easy for consumer use the IQAir has a countdown clock in hours that shows you how much time is left on your filters, so you no longer have to worry about writing down the date or figuring out when you last changed the filters because the IQAir has the information located directly on the top of the system. Additionally the IQAir includes a 5-year warranty and very low maintenance fees so keeping up on the system is easy and inexpensive.

Usually Air Purifiers are loud, is the IQAir a loud system? Built with quiet in mind, the IQAir when on an average speed of 2 or 3 is barely noticeable. The secret to the IQAir's ultra quiet design is the fan is centrally located, giving the filters the ability absorb the noise the machine may cause. Another reason for the IQAir's silent operation is the double wall housing and 8 vibration absorbing rubbers built-in to ensure the IQAir is truly a quiet mechanism.

Quiet, Superb Filtration and more! Are there any examples as to who uses the IQAir air purifier? Yes! Hospitals, doctors, dentists and other places in which air quality is a prime concern trust IQAir air purifiers. Believe it or not, IQAir was chosen selected to fight against the deadly SARS virus! SARS is a highly contagious airborne virus; the IQAir is able to filter out the virus from the air helping to reduce the amount of affected individuals. IQAir was also used in the 2008 Beijing Olympics, in order to combat the massive amount of pollution and smog found in the air!

The IQAir has the ability to remove a variety of harmful particles and substances from the air you breathe. Odors, particles and gases can trigger of allergic or asthmatic reactions. With the IQAir harmful particle breathed in daily by the average person virtually vanish quickly from the air. You can quickly increase your health and take down the amount of harmful particles found in your air, and prevent a large amount of harmful substances from entering your body.
