Built-In Air Ionizer
An air ionizer will increase the effectiveness of an air filter, by increasing the size of the particles drawn into the filter. Negative ions produced by an ionizer cause airborne particles to magnetically clump together, forming larger particles, which are more easily captured by the filter.
Negative ions are also capable of circulating throughout a room or area, removing from the air even particulate far away from where the air filter is located. Normally, particulate on the farther away from the air filter are unaffected, since many particles away from the air filter will not make their way across the room, and through a filter.
The Surround Air XJ-3000C UV, HEPA, ionic air purifier uses a high density needlepoint ionizer to produce a high concentration of negative ions. Effect of Negative Ions Negative Ion Studies
HEPA Air Filter
The HEPA air purifier is the most effective type of air filter, trapping 99.97% of particulate at the hard-to-remove size of 0.3 microns (300 times smaller than the width of a human hair.
Activated Carbon Air Filter
Activated carbon is highly effective at removing a wide variety of chemicals from the air, in addition to cigarette smoke and odors. It is the most absorbent of all air filter types.
Filter Sanitization
One major drawback of most air filters is that they serve as a breeding ground for bacteria and other microbes trapped within. Air filtration systems with an ionizer, ozone generator, or UV lamp located close to the filter will prevent this from happening, by destroying micro-organisms trapped in the filter.
The Surround Air XJ-3000C UV, HEPA, ionic air purifier uses UV, ionization, and an ozone generator located close to the filter to prevent microbes from reproducing.
Long Lasting Air Filters
Replacing air filters can be inconvenient, making it important to have an air filter that will last a long time between replacements. The XJ-3000C ionic air filter has one combination air filter cartridge consisting of a HEPA and activated carbon air filter, which lasts one to two years before requiring replacement.
Inexpensive Filter Replacement
Many air filter systems use filters that cost well over a hundred dollars to replace. In which case, it is important to find out the cost of replacement filters before buying. The XJ-3000C filter cartridge costs just $40 to replace.
Low Electricity Consumption
In addition to expensive filter replacement costs, some air filters also cost well over $100 or $200 a year in electricity costs. The XJ-3000C is rated at just 40 watts, costing only a few dollars or so per month in electricity costs (if run continuously).
Low Noise
Another common problem with many air filters is that they are so loud, it is recommended that you only run them when you are not present, which limits their ability to keep the air clean on an ongoing basis. The XJ-3000C is very quiet, especially when the fan is on the "Low" setting, where it is barely audible. Even on the high fan speed setting, the XJ-3000C is not at all disturbing.
