Residential NBPI Air Purifier
With the onset of Covid-19, indoor air quality has become a high priority for Americans. The healthcare industry has rushed to improve their indoor air quality to hamper the spread of Covid-19 through the air indoors. Many facilities are installing Needlepoint Bipolar Ionization Systems or NBPI for short, in their central air conditioning systems. These NPBIs have been tested by independent studies commissioned by the US Defense Department to neutralize 99.4% of SARS-CoV-2 (Covid-19) in just 30 minutes. This same technology is now available to the public thanks to smaller systems like the iWave air purifier by Nu-Calgon.
How NBPIs Work
NBPIs produce ions that reduce airborne pathogens, allergens, dust, mold and odors by breaking apart their chemical bonds. These positive and negative ions steal a hydrogen atom from nearby airborne particles leaving them harmless particulates to drop from the air. Without their hydrogen molecules, pathogens have no source of energy and die. The air that passes by the ions is now safe, clean, and ready to reenter your homes living space.
What Makes iWave Stand Apart
The ion generators on an NBPI lose their ability to effectively produce ions when dust accumulates on them. iWave has been designed to self clean its ion generators by brushing off dust that can accumulate on the bristles of each generator. This mean the iWave is a maintenance free solution to purify your family’s home. Unlike other air purifiers, the iWave NBPI does not produce ozone. Ozone in high concentrations in an enclosed space has been studied to be harmful to ones health. Breath easy knowing iWave has been studied by multiple independent labs to be safe and a reliable way to purify your homes air.
How is iWave Installed
iWave has been designed to install in most air handlers and furnaces without needing modifications done to the existing system. The iWave can be installed in the blower fan compartment or inside the systems ductwork. The iWave can be wired with as little as 24v and up to 240v. Only requiring 10 watts of electricity to operate, the iWave is an energy efficient means to clean your homes indoor air.
