CONTROL PANEL Power icon UV Bulb icon Touch to turn the air purifier on and off Touch to turn UV Bulb on and off • Ultraviolet light possesses just the right amount of energy to break organic molecular bonds. As micro-organisms pass by the UV rays radiated from the ultraviolet bulb, this bond breakage translates into cellular or genetic damage for micro-organisms, such as germs, viruses, bacteria, fungi (like molds), etc. This results in the destruction of the micro-organisms.
FILTRATION PROCESS / INSTALLATION 1st Stage - Pre-Filter The washable pre-filter removes large particles such as dust, pet hair and dander, fungus and mold. 2nd Stage - HEPA Filter High Efficiency Particulate Arresting (HEPA) filters are designed to remove 99.97% of all air pollutants that are as small as 0.3 micrometers such as pollen, allergens and dust mites. For reference, 1 micrometer is 1/100th the width of a human hair.
