Air Purifier with
Germicidal Protection |
Featuring
Snapcat™ - Photocatalytic Oxidation
Our
Snapcat™ add-on strips will snap onto any brand
of UV light that is of the dual tube U-shaped design,
not just CaluTech's.
If
you hate to read, here is the short story. Snapcat
strips react with the UV-C light to produce radicals
that get carried into the air thru your duct system.
The particles attach themselves to pathogens in the
air, carpet, walls, or any place the pathogens may be
that can come in contact with the air. The radicals
then destroy the pathogens, rendering them incapable
of reproducing, thus stopping them in their tracks from
growing. If you have ever walked along a sandy
beach by a seashore, you have noticed the same fresh
air smell. We are reproducing the exact same scenerio
indoors like the sun does outside. Totally safe
and no side affects.
Heterogeneous
Photocatalytic oxidation (PCO) eliminates concentrations
of organic contaminants from gaseous effluents by converting
them to safe substances such as water or carbon dioxide.
Our air purifier with germicidal protection and Snapcat™
photocatalytic oxidation removes musty odors, pet dander,
viruses, mold, bacteria, and other airborne pathogens.
Eliminates VOCs (Volatile Organic Compounds). Irradiates
the furnace - air conditioning coils and makes them
like new again, increasing air flow and efficiency.
Helps clean and sanitize air ducts and kill mold while
eliminating odors throughout the entire home.
If
you already own a CaluTech UV air system you can easily
add the Snapcat™ snap-on strips to your existing
UV lamps, or add Snapcat™ at your next lamp change.
Snapcat™ is a Patent Pending product which allows
a simple, yet effective way to utilize catalytic oxidation
technology in your home. The Photocatalytic strips are
different than some UV air purifier models made by others,
which use a simple piece of titanium metal in the attempt
to produce a catalyst oxidation process. Titanium Dioxide,
or Titania (chemical name ti02) is a product not produced
by nature and not made from titanium metal. It is extracted
mainly from rutile beach sand and when it is used in
the Snapcat™ process it becomes a powerful oxidizer
which reacts with UV light below 385nm. The Snapcat™
strips are manufactured and coated with a very pure
titanium dioxide which is baked on the Snapcat™
strip. This coating lasts for 5 years, or more. Adding
Snapcat™ technology to CaluTech's UV air purification
gives you a superior method for air purification. UV-C
germicidal light produced by the CaluTech product line
eliminates viruses, mold, bacteria and other living
airborne pathogens by modifying the living organism's
DNA, preventing them from reproducing, and causing the
organisms to die. Adding Snapcat™ strips to our
UV air purifiers causes a reaction between the UV light
and the strips. This reaction is called Heterogeneous
Photocatalysis, or quite simply 'Photocatalytic Oxidation'
/ PCO Technology. The PCO process generates hydroxyl
radicals which are among the most powerful oxidizers.
Like UV-C light these oxidizers destroy microorganisms
in the air, but the advantage is the ability for these
oxidizers to reach living organisms in places where
the UV-C light cannot reach. In addition, because titanium
dioxide is a semiconductor it absorbs UV light and breaks
down volatile organic compounds (VOCs) such as odors
and gases like carbon monoxide or nitrous oxide. These
gases are converted by the Photocatalytic process into
carbon dioxide and water, rendering them completely
harmless. All you have left is pure clean air! Breathe
clean again, breathe crisp clean air.
Germicidal protection
combined with Snapcat™ equals superior
air purification. A cost effective, low priced
solution to indoor air problems. Now you can
add Snapcat to your CaluTech ultraviolet air
purifier. Nothing's better! Get yours today.
Snapcat™ can be added to your new or existing
CaluTech UV air purifier in seconds! Fits all
CaluTech air purifiers. |
