HEPA Air Purifier
HEPA Purifier is a type of pleated mechanical air filter technology. It is an acronym for “high efficiency particulate air [purifier]”
But we are not here today to talk about the HEPA Air Purifier system, but a NEW technology; introducing OKTOair systems that get particles much, much smaller, removing 99.99% of particulates.
This technology is a breath of fresh air, quite literally in the air purification sector. And entering into this unavoidable new normal, highly filtered air has never been more desired in so many sectors.
Dust, pollen, mould, bacteria, these are all particles that unfortunately we breathe in on a daily basis, and to most people completely unknowingly.
If you have ever had a HEPA air purifier, you can be assured that you are getting medical grade air, there is no doubt about that, but as technology advances, improvements are made and you can be be rest assured that this is in a different league, with each of our machines independently tested and certified to be better than a HEPA air purifier efficiency and exceeds the EN 1822 European Standard..
All air cleaners require periodic cleaning and filter replacement to function properly. Follow manufacturer’s recommendations on maintenance and replacement.
Looking at the above graphic, you can see the detoxification of the air, you cannot see with the naked eye the amount of micro particles that are polluting our air, but you would be shocked I am sure to find out that with each breath that you take, 45–75,000 particles are entering into your system.
Risks associated with breaths taken :
- Fertility problems
- Cardiovascular disease
- Cancer
- Asthma
- Allergies
- Stroke
Why is it necessary to remove such small particles from the air?
Why? A lot of people ask this question, and I guess it is a good question to ask. These particles can’t be seen to the naked eye, you can’t see any immediate damage to your person, or sometimes any at all — that is for a number of years.
Airborne particles that are microscopic can be taken into the lungs and be very damaging to your health, especially those that suffer from allergies or asthma.
Allergy sufferers, again to the naked eye, you might look and not understand exactly what happens when the coughing and sneezing begins. This is the result of larger particles, such as mould spores, pollen, dust and other allergens entering into our systems and our nose and throat getting to work on filtering them out. With the HEPA Air Purifier these are removed, but they are nearly non-existent thanks to OKTOair.
Particulate Matter (PM); The term for a mixture of solid particles and liquid droplets found in the air.
Particles range in size, drastically.
- Smaller particles such as PM 10 particles, which are a tiny 10 microns in diameter make it into our lungs, past the throat’s defence efforts.
- Even smaller particles , like PM 2.5 particles, which are 2.5 microns in diameter, can make it even further into the alveoli in our lungs, posing serious health risks.
It is not just some people that are exposed to this, it is worldwide. Have you ever looked up what your air quality rating is where you live? If not : https://www.iqair.com/world-air-quality-ranking — you will be shocked.
Think fossil fuels, traffic and chemicals. In Europe alone, it is estimated that particulate pollution caused around 370,000 premature deaths in Europe, 2005.
The smaller a particle is, the harder it is to remove. OKTOair’s system removes 99.99% of particulates from the air that you are breathing in every day.
