Cheese and penicillin. Two things where mould has benefited humankind. These are “good” moulds. But the “bad” moulds that invasively grow in your home or office can be remediated with the correct technology. So, what is the best air purifier for mould?
What do you think of when you hear the word “mould”? In the unlikely event you are a turophile or infectious disease specialist you would answer cheese and penicillin respectively. However, for most people, mould is recognised with increasing traction as something that invasively finds an unwated place in our homes and places of work.
So why does mould appear and why is it bad?
The most common causes of mould are due to wet or moist areas indoors, often caused by water damage due to leaking or flooding, and where inadequate ventilation causes mould growth to thrive as moisture continues to accumulate on indoor surfaces. These surfaces can include walls or wallpaper, ceilings, bathroom tiles, carpets, insulation material and wood.
The reason mould should be a concern for anybody is that mould can affect people differently as it all depends on what type of mould you are exposed to, what your immune system is like and the duration of time you have been exposed.
There are many different types of mould found in homes, and can be catergorised as such:
- Allergenic Moulds (Alternaria, Aspergillus, Cladosporium and Penicillium) which are low risk and effect people with allergies and asthma.
- Pathogenic Moulds (Aspergillus, Cryptococcus Neoformans and Histoplasma Capsulatum) which can be low risk and are capable of causing infections and disease.
- Toxic Moulds (Fusarium, Aspergillus, Stachybotrys Chartarum, a.k.a “black mould” and Penicillium) are high risk which produce mycotoxins which can cause a number of health issues.
So how can an air purifer device help?
Do you have a split-system air conditioner? Then the TADIRAN AIROW 3™ is for you!
TADIRAN AIROW 3™ is a game-changing air purification technology easily installed into any existing wall-mounted split-system air conditioner that is proven to remove mould.
It uses patented hydrogen peroxide technology from Israel that generates safe and effective levels of H2O2 via a electrical discharge within the device, formed from the oxygen and water particles in the air conditioner’s ventilation.
Testing at the esteemed Kitasato Research Center for Environmental Science in Japan demonstrated that the TADIRAN AIROW 3™ reduces 99.4% of mould within three hours!
One quarter of Australian households are estimated to have damp and mould in their homes.
Don’t have a split system air conditioner? Then Intellipure products are for you!
Intellipure has been building air purifiers for 40 years. They have tried every technology until they invented the Disinfecting Filtration System (DFS) in 2003 in response to a grant from the US military to combat germ warfare.
This technology captures 99.97% of all particles down to 0.007 micron in size! That’s 40x better than standard HEPA filtration and will create a substantial reduction in airborne microorganisms including mould and mycotoxins. It is why Intellipure are so highly recommended for improving air quality and combatting mould.
Intellipure’s revolutionary DFS technology reduces bio-burden and inhibits microorganism growth passing into the system through Microbiostasis condition. One of the major drawbacks of HEPA filters (which essentially all standard air filtration devices use) is that if they are not changed timely and frequently, they present the opportunity for the breed through effect, in which microorganisms captured inside the filters live, grow, and reproduce inside the machine (and in turn, as released back into the air inside your home). The DFS technology in this machine protects you from the possibility of the breed through effect.
Air purifiers are a very effective method to reduce mould in the indoor environment.
The TADIRAN AIROW 3™ is an effective and affordable option for those whom have a wall-mounted split-system air conditioner. The Hydrogen Peroxide produced and dispersed by the device will identify and destroy malignant organic pathogens such as mould. The technology also means that the disinfecting process continues for up to 24 hours after the air conditioner is switched off. Additionally, the TADIRAN AIROW 3™ is extremely energy efficient using just 1 Watt of power.
TADIRAN AIROW 3™ & Intellipure air purifiers are available now at WellcoPure.
