AkGlobe News/10112420

FAIRBANKS, Alaska - AkGlobe -- Equipment Source, Inc. (ESI), Alaska's leading equipment manufacturer, is offering a new range of clinically-proven medical-grade air purifiers to help keep Alaskans safe at home this winter.

We've all become accustomed to wearing masks, regularly washing our hands, hunkering down at home and socially distancing in public. However, the rate of COVID-19 in Alaska is still increasing. There are more than 43,132 active cases in the state and 176 deaths have been reported so far.

Experts say there's more we can do to keep ourselves safe, especially as freezing winter conditions confine us to indoor environments. Joseph G. Allen, Director of the Harvard Healthy Building Programs, recently told the Wall Street Journal (WSJ) he believes that better ventilation and air filtration hold key to battling the virus. That means it's time to invest in a quality air filter.

ESI's new product line features the Austin Air HealthMate, which is designed to address everyday air concerns by stripping contaminants from the air your family breathes at home. It has a four-stage filtration system that includes a HEPA filter, which uses tightly-woven fibers to capture particles down to 0.1 micron in size. This means it's small enough to capture droplets containing viruses.

• Stage 1: A large pre-filter removes particles like dust, hair, and pet dander.
• Stage 2: A medium pre-filter removes particles like mold, spores, and pollen.
• Stage 3: A carbon and zeolite filter removes chemicals, gases and odors.
• Stage 4: A HEPA filter removes 95% of particles larger than 0.1 microns.

The HealthMate was selected for use in a clinical trial at the Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center in Ohio, and was proven to be extremely effective in protecting sick children from second-hand smoke, reducing their hospital visits by nearly 20% over the course of the study.This unit has a number of health benefits, from reducing the viral load in the air to minimize risk of infection to lessening allergies, easing coughing, reducing dry mouth, helping your family avoid runny noses, and ensuring you all enjoy sounder sleep at night.
