Austin Air Purifiers

Austin Air Hepa Air Cleaners

We are all naturally concerned about our own health as well as the health of the people we care about as we learn to live with Covid-19 in our daily lives. especially if they are elderly or already have health issues.

We felt that it would be helpful, as we face these challenges ahead, to take this opportunity to let you know how Austin units can help.Questions Regarding Austin Air Purifier Systems

What is a viral load?

The latest evidence points to the main form of transmission for Covid-19 is airborne transmission. Infected people release the virus into the air. The greater number of viral particles someone comes in contact with could determine how sick they could get.

Do Austin Filters protect against COVID-19?

The medical grade HEPA air purifier technology used in the Austin units has been proven to remove 95% of all contaminants down to as small as 0.1 microns. Scientific evidence has shown that the Covid-19 virus is larger than 0.1 microns so Austin Air room air purifiers for home are effective at removing the vast majority of the airborne virus.

Also, evidence from the UK Health Protection Agency shows that the HEGA Carbon cloth that is used in the Bedroom Machine if highly effective at filtering out airborne viruses.

Reducing The Viral Load

Using an Austin Hepa Air Cleaner will greatly reduce the amount of airborne virus a person may come in contact with. This could help lessen your risk in 2 ways. First, it could prevent someone from contracting the virus altogether and if someone were to become infected, it could lower the viral load so they lessen their risk of more serious symptoms.

Even though this virus is airborne, it can also be transmitted by contact with surfaces so it is very important to wash our hands regularly.

What unit should you buy?

If Bacteria and viruses are you main concern, we would recommend the Bedroom Machine. Not only does the HEPA technology in the Bedroom machine filter out 95% of contaminants down to 0.1 microns but it also utilizes the HEGA carbon cloth that also captures and destroys airborne viruses.

For more than 30 years, Austin Air has produced medical-grade HEPA and carbon air purifiers. Since then, we have made it our duty to raise awareness of the risks posed by airborne contaminants and to explain the numerous, frequently unconnected health problems that can arise from inhaling contaminated air.

Our air purifiers will eliminate a variety of pollutants from your home or place of business by combining Medical Grade HEPA with a special carbon blend.

Over the past few years, the demand for purifiers has increased dramatically, but so have queries and worries about them. We therefore examine some of those topics this week and work to dispel any misunderstandings that could be there.

Common Misconception: Since purifiers don't use "fresh" air from the outside, they are ineffective.

TRUTH: The most important factor in this situation is how we define "fresh" air. Street air, often known as outdoor air, is frequently hardly ever "fresh." The EPA (1) lists carbon monoxide, lead, nitrogen dioxide, ozone, particulate matter, and sulfur dioxide as the most prevalent pollutants in outdoor air.

Therefore, it is true that portable HEPA purifiers do not use outdoor air, but this is something we consider beneficial. Austin air purifiers exclusively give pure, contaminant-free air. As a result, utilizing an Austin to purify the air in a room will result in far better air quality than simply opening a window to bring in some "fresh" air.

Common Misconception: Room Air purifiers are ineffective in large areas like classrooms.

TRUTH: It's crucial to make sure the air purifier you choose is big enough for the space you need it in. A lot of purifiers are made for compact spaces, but Austin is not one of them. Our devices' distinctive construction guarantees that the filtered, clean air is pushed back into the space via a directional export vent. This ensures that all of the air in the room, not just that near the unit, is free of pollutants. This ability to circulate air throughout a space, along with an unmatched filter capacity, ensures great cleaning even in vast areas.

Common Misconception: purifiers trap COVID-19 but later release it, posing a recontamination risk.

TRUTH: Our purifiers are made to draw impurities into the machine, where they are then filtered by a four- or five-stage system that includes a pre-filter, a medium filter, a HEPA filter, a carbon filter, and a HEGA carbon cloth. The carbon filter, the HEPA, the HEGA, and the medium-sized filter are all sealed into a one-way system. Once contaminants are trapped in the filter, they have nowhere to go. In the filter, this is true for COVID-19, mold spores, allergies, and any other pollutants.

Common Misconception: COVID-19 is too small to be captured by HEPA, which only captures particles that are 0.3 microns or larger.

TRUTH: HEPA is capable of catching particles as small as 0.3 microns, despite the fact that Medical Grade HEPA is certified to remove particles as large as 0.3 microns. Perhaps surprisingly, 0.3 micron-sized particles are more challenging to catch than smaller ones, which is why this particle size is chosen in the certification. Due to a phenomenon known as "Brownian Motion," smaller particles like COVID-19 are simpler to detect. Smaller particles move in a zigzag pattern, making it simpler for the HEPA filter to absorb them.

Common Misconception: People mistakenly believe that air purifiers require frequent, expensive filter changes.

TRUTH: A number of air purifiers on the market need their filters changed frequently, some as frequently as once or twice a year. Here at Austin, we use unparalleled quantities of HEPA and carbon in our filters to provide a lengthy filter life of up to five years and prevent this additional price.

Common Misconception: Air cleaners Generate Ozone

TRUTH: Several electronic or ionizer air cleaners are being marketed as a way to get rid of virus particles from the air since the introduction of COVID-19. However, this kind of technology just produces particles that are electrically charged and adhere to the contaminants in the air rather than removing them. Particles that have been linked to something fall to the ground and can then be cleaned up. Independent investigations (2), however, reveal that using electronic air cleaning equipment might result in the direct or indirect production of hazardous quantities of pollutants.

This is why employing HEPA air purifiers is advised by the WHO (3), the CDC (4), and experts in the field of science (5) as a secure and reliable method of enhancing air quality and lowering the risk of COVID-19 transmission.

Plan for National COVID-19 Preparedness

The newly elected administration released a "National Strategy for the COVID-19 Response" in January 2021. The plan was created to provide people with the means to defend themselves, reopen schools, and stimulate the economy. That plan was revised last week and is now a part of the "National COVID-19 Preparedness Plan."

Preventing closures of the economy and of educational institutions is one important objective of the new preparedness plan. Schools and businesses must be provided with the resources they need to reopen and remain open safely if the nation is to advance. The government will put in place a number of measures to stop further economic and educational shutdowns.

Tax Credits

Due to a COVID-19 absence or the necessity to care for a loved one who has COVID-19, employees will be entitled to sick pay. Tax credits will be given to small and medium-sized businesses as payment for this. To improve indoor air quality, there should be clear guidelines and technical assistance. The government has made it plain that improvements to ventilation can enhance health results if we are to keep schools and businesses open. Effective ventilation techniques inside the home can lessen the concentration of virus particles as well as other indoor air pollutants.

The CDC, EPA, and WHO created a set of recommendations for the usage of portable HEPA air purifiers in offices, schools, and other public buildings at the start of the pandemic. The government will keep giving schools and workplaces the direction and technical assistance they require to enhance indoor air quality in order to ensure a safe return to learning and working.

Clean Air in Buildings Checklist from the EPA

To help all buildings enhance ventilation and air filtering, the EPA will offer additional resources in the form of a list of suggestions.

• The checklist will include hyperlinks to the CDC, EPA, and DOE as well as other government websites.

• The steps for increasing the amount of outside air entering a building by opening windows, doors, dampers, and other air openings will be included.

• It will also discuss the advantages of HVAC systems and the necessity of cross ventilation.

• The use of portable HEPA air filtration will be discussed as a way to lessen the presence of virus particles in the air and, consequently, the risk of infection. Then, as part of the "Clean Air in Buildings Challenge," the government will urge building managers, owners of businesses, and executives of organizations to implement these crucial initiatives.

Clean Air In Buildings Challenge 

The government will also launch a "Clean Air in Buildings Challenge" to assist firms in creating vital ventilation improvement strategies in order to motivate them to adhere to the EPA's "Clean Air in Buildings Checklist." A program for acknowledging better ventilation and air quality will also be developed by the government.

Money Is Available for Businesses and Schools

The government allocated $350 billion to state and local governments and an additional $130 billion to schools to cover the costs of the necessary ventilation and air purification upgrades in order to ensure that schools and other organizations implement the strategies outlined in the "Clean Air in Buildings Challenge."

Spread the word about the necessity of efficient ventilation and air filtration Although there is still more to be done, the need for safe, efficient indoor air filtration has grown tremendously in recent years. The government is dedicated to raising public awareness of the need for sufficient filtration and ventilation to help prevent the spread of COVID-19.

6 million preterm births globally are connected to air pollution, according to a study.

Premature birth is primarily caused by air pollution. The research team examined the gestational age at birth of infants as well as the proportion of premature or underweight births. They contend that air pollution is the main contributor to low birth weight and premature birth, even after controlling for factors like diet, alcohol consumption, and smoking.

Premature birth causes issues in later life. Even while premature babies are most at danger during their first few months of life, those who do survive are not fully safe. Early birth might raise one's risk of developing significant conditions later in life, including long-term intellectual and developmental problems.

Early birth might raise one's risk of developing major illnesses later in life, including long-term intellectual and developmental problems and issues with respiratory health and vision.

All of life is impacted by pollution. Air pollution affects our health throughout our lives, from the moment of conception until our senior years, but this study specifically focused on the repercussions for babies. The health of our unborn children, our fertility, and the danger of infection are all impacted by pollution. Children are also more susceptible to allergic rhinitis, asthma, allergic conjunctivitis, eczema, and dermatitis. Teenagers who are exposed to high pollution levels have a higher risk of developing mental diseases like sadness, anxiety, and psychosis. Our chance of developing diabetes, heart disease, cancer, Alzheimer's, and Parkinson's disease also rises as we age due to pollution exposure.

The time for change is now. Numerous studies have shown that air pollution has a significant negative impact on our health, but it is preventable. The results of this study, according to Tim Nawrot, an environmental epidemiology professor at Hasselt University in Belgium, have provided us with the opportunity to view data in a novel, hitherto unexplored manner. His point is obvious...

"Science has given us the whole translation.... It has to be taken up and used by policymakers.

FEMA and the American Red Cross prefer Austin Air over all others. Clinical testing has shown that the distinctive filter technology utilized in Austin Air Purifiers effectively filters out a variety of airborne contaminants, including chemicals, VOCs, allergies, viruses, and germs. According to independent clinical trials conducted by some of the top institutions in the nation, Austin Air Purifiers can significantly improve children's asthma symptoms and cut down on ER visits.
