Ionic Air Purifiers

Major differences between the The Ionic Breeze and IQAirs superior air purification systems.

The Ionic Breeze unit has no fan to exchange and filter the dirty air in the room through its system in order to remove particles from your indoor environment. The Ionic Breeze can only remove a very small amount of particles onto its thin-narrow collector plate that is attached to the unit. This collector plate can only attract particles from a distance of approximately 1/8 of an inch away. If the collector plate is dirty, the plate is not able to keep collecting particles onto it. Then its function ceases all together. The viruses, bacteria, dust, smoke, pollen, dander, Dust-Mite allergen and other allergens that are just a very short distance away from the collector plate will continue to float airborne for you to breath. The Ionic Breeze does not cause smoke and allergens to drop out of the air and away from your breathing environment. The Ionic Breeze Air Purifiers Produce Ozone. Ozone can be an irritant and a real problem for people with Asthma & other Lung Diseases. A 2006 study by researchers at UC Davis found that one popular brand, the Ionic Breeze Quadra, released about 2.2 milligrams of ozone per hour, or about as much as a constantly running photocopier. (Ionic purifiers shouldn't be confused with ozone generators that are marketed as "air cleaners." By design, these devices can release 50 to 200 milligrams of ozone per hour.)Ionic air purifiers don't really improve air quality, says Dr. James Sublett, a clinical professor at the University of Louisville; a fellow at the American College of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology; and co-chair of the 2007 ACAAI Healthy Indoor Environment conference. "We [allergists and immunologists] generally don't recommend them," he says. "This is a windmill that I've been tilting at for a number of years."According to Sublett, the devices don't effectively remove dust, dander and other irritants from a room. Without fans, he explains, they can't collect airborne particles from more than a few feet away. And when even small amounts of dust enter the device, the plates inside quickly lose much of their power to attract more particles. Meanwhile, the charged particles that stick to walls or TV screens haven't left the room and can always billow up again to cause trouble. The ozone released from the devices is another deal-breaking shortcoming, Sublett says. "Ozone is a pollutant and an irritant. Even small amounts are too much." Doctor Sublett states people with asthma or allergies should consider installing high-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filters in their heating or cooling systems.
