Air Purifiers
GREAT information about the
amazing Lightning Air Purifiers at:
Q. How does LightningAir treat the air? A. The Lightning Air produces ozone and negatively charged ions, the same effective cleansing agents that nature uses to treat outdoor air. Q. How does LightningAir work? A. It is a two-stage process: 1. The LightningAir uses a needlepoint ionizer to drop dust, smoke and other harmful particles from the air we breathe. In our homes and offices there is a lack of negative ions and an abundance of positive ions. The buildings we spend most of our time in block out the natural occurring negative ions. The LightningAir recreates the natural balance of positive to negative ions to significantly reduce airborne particles. 2. The LightningAir uses electricity to split oxygen O2 molecules into single O1 atoms, which attach loosely to other O2 molecules to become O3 (activated oxygen). This loosely attached oxygen atom is unstable and seeks to bond with chemical compounds and other odor causing pollutants in order to oxidize them. Q. How does nature produce ozone? A. Ozone is created electrically during active thunderstorms. The electrical discharge creates a fresh sweet smell. The ultraviolet rays of the sun striking hydrocarbons in our atmosphere also creates ozone. Q. How does nature produce ions? A. Waterfalls, lightning, and the waves of the ocean all create negative ions. Q. What is an ozone alert? A. Ozone alerts in cities are a result of the high pollution levels of hydrocarbons produced by the burning of fossil fuels. When ultraviolet rays from the sun strike hydrocarbons, O3 is one of the by-products. Ozone is easily detected and is sometimes used as a reference point for the level of pollutants. Q. How does it compare to air filters? A. LightningAir does not rely on the air to actually pass through the machine to be cleaned like air filters. It's not a filter at all. LightningAir produces both activated oxygen, which reduces odors, and negative ions, which settles out particulate. Q. Is ozone safe? A. Yes, but moderation is the key. Ozone in very high concentrations can be irritating to mucous membranes and the respiratory system. We recommend you set the Square Feet dial properly. The three different models equate to the approximate size of space to be purified. Before using the LightningAir you should read the enclosed instructions carefully. Refer to Using a Timer section. Q. Where should I place the LightningAir in my home or office? A. The LightningAir should be placed in the room where you have the most pollutants. The LightningAir is easy to move so you might want to try it in a couple of locations to help decide what works best for your environment. An elevated location is better to distribute ions and activated oxygen more evenly. Q. How long will the LightningAir last? A. The LightningAir is made of stainless steel and solid wood construction. Because of the quality material and superior craftsmanship that goes into each LightningAir you will enjoy it for many years. Q. Is it difficult to install? A. No. Just plug it in and set the dial for the area you will be treating. Install the LightningAir in any room, but try to find a place where it can be up off the ground four feet or more. Some customers prefer to have more than one unit to better control levels of activated oxygen in the home.
