Now that's Proof!

How Does the Austin Air Purifier Work?

The Austin Air Purifier draws in air from all sides passing it over the series of air filters, removing larger particles first and progressively smaller particles until pure clean air is passed out the top of the purifier and back into the air. Here's a closer look:

What Does the Austin Purifier Remove from the Air?

At Austin Air, they understand the importance of clean air at an affordable price. This is why they designed a filter to remove more than your average HEPA filter can remove. They designed a 4-stage filtration process that can remove up to 99.97% of the following particles:

• Allergens
• Asthma triggering impurities
• Mold and Mildew
• Smoke
• Fungi
• Germs, Viruses and Bacteria
• Odors
• Chemicals and Gaseous fumes

Is This the Right Air Purifier for Me?

You and your family can benefit from fresh air inside your home and improved air quality no matter if you suffer from ailments or not. Ultra small particles can enter your bloodstream through your lungs and cause serious problems over time. Look at the diagram below to see how particles, that the Austin Air Purifier could get rid of, can enter your lungs and into your body.

How Does the Advanced Filter System Work?

Austin Air purifiers use a 360° Progressive Filtering System. By addressing the complete process of air cleansing (including particles, gaseous fumes, odors and fine impurities) all in one filtration system, these purifiers can effectively remove impurities from an entire room within minutes.

Once the air is pulled in from a 360° area surrounding the machine, it then passes through the HealthMate™ filter in the following order:

1. Prefilter for Large Particles: In stage 1 of purification, all large particles that are easily seen with the naked eye are captured and removed like pet hair and dust.

2. Prefilter for Medium Particles: In stage 2, all medium sized impurities are removed including mold spores, smaller dust and pollen.

3. 15 pounds of Activated Carbon and Zeolite impregnanted with potassium iodide for the chemically sensitive: Stage 3 removes chemicals, gaseous fumes, household chemicals, over 3000 odors and smoke.

4. 60 square feet of Certified HEPA Filter: In Stage 4 of the air filtration process, the advanced, medical-grade HEPA (High Efficiency Particulate Arrestance) Filter removes 99.97% of particles down to 0.3 microns in size and 95% of particles down to 0.1microns in size.
