Purifan About Us - Clear Air, Pure and Simple

About Purifans- Why Purifan Works So Well

1. HIGH VOLUME AIR FLOW

Purifan Filters More Air Per Minute Than Any Other Residential Air Cleaner

Only the Purifan provides up to 40 air changes per hour over a 20 x 20 foot room area. The EPA says air changes per hour are the primary criteria for making an air cleaner effective. Many medical studies have concluded that fewer than 6 air changes per hour have little noticeable benefits for allergy and asthma sufferers. Once an air cleaner produces more than 10 or 12 air changes per hour the benefits of reduced allergy and asthma symptoms are reported by most people. In some studies children with Asthma reported all symptoms disappeared when air changes per hour exceeded 10. One 3 year double-blind study in Europe with 10 air changes per hour resulted in a 55% reduction in respiratory illness related sick days in a children in a day-care facility. Purifans can produce about 40 air changes per hour at a very low cost to install and operate.

2. IDEAL LOCATION CREATES THE IDEAL AIR FLOW PATTERN

The Purifan is located in the ideal location, on the ceiling in the center of the room. It is overhead, out-of-the-way and in the ideal spot to clean the entire room.

1 - The dirty, particle-filled air if driven back to the Low Pressure suction right below the Purifan. All this air is sucked into the Purifan

2 - The dirty air is forced through the hidden 5-stage filters.

3 - The Purifan blows high velocity filtered air in all 360 degrees, creating High Pressure, providing fresh, clean, odor-reduced air to all parts of the room. This entire air-flow pattern over a 20 x 20 foot room(400 square feet) is repeated every 90 seconds or 40 Air Changes per Hour.

Air Changes per Hour is the primary performance criteria for evaluating the benefits and effectiveness of an air cleaner.

What is the Better Buy for Clean Air $30 per CFM or 20 cents per CFM?

The most popular Ionic Stick model sells for $399 to $599 and filters about 15 CFM of air, so buyers are typically paying more than $30 for each CFM of air filtering capacity.

But with Purifan you are paying only about $370, and getting 2,000 CFM of clean air, so the cost is only about 20 cents per CFM of filtered air. This is clearly a much better value, because you should remember, you are not buying an Air Cleaner, you should be interested in buying Cubic Feet of Clean Air per Minute. One Purifan delivers more Clean Air per Minute than 70 of these $400 Ionic Models!

The Ionic Stick Model requires cleaning every 7 to 14 days depending on your air quality, and even if it only takes 5 or 10 minutes, it is time you have to waste every week or two. If you don't clean it, Ionic models won't work or even worse, they wake you up at night sounding like a bug zapper in your bedroom. Plus ionic models have been flagged by consumer research groups as producing dangerous levels of ozone in a closed room. Definitely not good for your respiratory health.

With Purifan you typically only need one low-cost filter change per year in a non-smoking home. Even with a lot of pets or smokers, the Purifan filters last a long time and are low cost. Filters can be changed easily without any tools.

3. SUPER QUIET OPERATION

Purifan uses a ceiling-fan motor to spin the Purifan at an amazingly quiet 200 to 220 RPM. The Purifan makes even less noise than a bladed ceiling fan.

Any floor or shelf-model air cleaner that uses a high-speed, small fan motor to move the air will sound like a vacuum sweeper. This noise makes it very difficult to sleep, talk, watch TV or carry on a normal conversation on the phone or in person.

Turn it on a lower, quieter speed and the air-flow drops to a low level that is ineffective in cleaning the air with enough air changes per hour to do any real good.

Purifan customers constantly compliment Purifan on its quiet operation, and many customers replaced noisy ineffective floor models, shelf models or ionic models with their Purifans.

4. ENERGY EFFICIENT

Purifan only uses 60 watts of electricity on high-speed. If you were running your ceiling fan, then the Purifan takes NO MORE energy than you were using before. You get the benefits of ceiling-fan air-flow which saves energy on heating and cooling.

During summer months, the wind-chill cooling over a person's skin creates a comfortable cooling effect that reduces the need for air conditioning. Air condition thermostat settings are higher saving energy costs.

During winter months the Purifan draws hot air down from the ceiling and distributes it evenly throughout the room. No cold spots anywhere in the room, even along windows or in the shade. Heat thermostat settings are lower, saving energy costs.

The entire room stays at the same comfortable air temperature, with a slight breeze that can be felt everywhere in the room. In a bedroom it is like a waterfall of clean, filtered air is running down the wall onto the bed.

5. LIFETIME WARRANTY

Purifans come with a Limited Lifetime Warranty. They are designed to last a lifetime and every time your replace the filters it performs just like the day it was brand new. Compare that to floor, shelf and ionic models. These units may sound like a bargain, but most of the low-cost models can break or get coroded plates easily making them stop working. Then you have to spend the same money all over again to get another unit. Larger, high-quality floor models still make all the noise, require expensive filters and consume more energy to operate. They may last a few more years, but usually the electronics or motor bearings wear out, requiring expensive repairs or a new unit.

When you purchase a Purifan you get a product designed to last a lifetime. Ceiling fan motors sold by Purifan and others are designed to run slow and easy for 30 or more years. The motors are low cost and easy to replace with the latest Energy-star Models.
