Activated
Carbon Filters (pad) are supplied with each system. The
Activated
Carbon Filter is changed every two months and removes odors by
absorbing the odor molecules into the filter. Since the Activated
Carbon can only absorb a certain amount of molecules, it will begin
releasing the trapped molecules, once it is full, back into the air if
not properly maintained. Most indoor air quality issues are
resolved by using the standard activated carbon filter pad.
A
HEPA Filter is supplied with each system (12" thick). The
HEPA
Filter removes the very small particles, such as smoke (tobacco,
burning wood, oil, rosin), dust mites, spores, mold spores, pollen,
spray paint, spray paint dust, ashes, cement dust, auto emissions,
textile fibers, fiberglass, hairspray, insecticide dust, copier toner
and most viruses, just to name a few! As
you can see, the HEPA Filter is an extremely important filter and when
used and maintained properly will dramatically improve your indoor air
quality. We
cannot
stress enough the importance of the HEPA Filter to our system and the
fact the HEPA Filter must be maintained in order to achieve the maximum
results.
