Multiple technologies to remove nearly all types of pollutants, yet very low replacement costs.
Effectively Removes: dust, allergens, mold, micro-organisms, cigarette smoke, odors, chemicals, bacteria and much more, thanks to the combination of several air-cleaning technologies.

Five Proven Air-Cleaning Technologies:
 |
|
 HEPA air filters are made from very tiny glass fibers that are made into a tightly woven paper. This creates a filter consisting of a multitude of very small sieves that can capture extremely small particles, including some biological agents. Once trapped, contaminates and particles are not able to flow back into circulation, due to the highly absorbent pores of the HEPA air filter.
- HEPA air filters remove 99.97% of particles down to 0.3 microns in size, almost 300 times smaller than the width of a human hair.
-
HEPA air filters were developed by the Atomic Energy Commission during the second World War. They were originally designed to remove radio active dust from their plants.
-
HEPA air filters are recommended by the U.S. Dept. of Homeland Security.
-
Journal of Hygiene study found that ionizers increase efficiency of HEPA air filters. The Multi-Tech offers an ionizer in addition to its True HEPA filter.
-
A study by Air & Waste Management Association found the combination of a HEPA air filter and germicidal UV lamp reduced bacteria by 80% in a 3072 cubic foot chamber.

 Ultraviolet light possesses just the right amount of energy to break organic molecular bonds. As micro-organisms pass by the UV rays radiated from the ultraviolet lamp, this bond breakage translates into cellular or genetic damage for micro-organisms, such as germs, viruses, bacteria, fungi (like molds), etc. This results in the destruction of the micro-organisms.
-
The Centers of Disease Control (CDC) recommends the use of ultraviolet light with simultaneous use of HEPA air filters, both of which are offered in Surround Air multi-function air purifiers.
-
The U.S. government now specifies that UV light should be used in air handling units to improve indoor air quality in government buildings, by controlling airborne and surface microbial growth.
- The Air Institute of Respiratory Education suggests UV lights be used in buildings for indoor air quality purposes, and states that may be the final line of defense against those diseases that have developed resistance to drugs, such as tuberculosis and others.
-
According to the Aerobiological Engineering Dept. at Penn State University, the ultraviolet component of sunlight is the main reason microbes die in the outdoor air. The die-off rate in the outdoors varies from one pathogen to another, but can be anywhere from a few seconds to a few minutes for a 90-99% kill of viruses or contagious bacteria.
-
The Centers of Disease Control (CDC) recommends UV lights in homeless shelters to prevent the spread of disease, particularly TB (tuberculosis).

 Activated carbon air filters consist of a vast system of pores of molecular size. These pores are highly adsorbent, forming a strong chemical bond/attraction to odorous, gaseous, and liquid contaminates.
-
Activated carbon air filters trap odors and chemicals in highly absorbent granules (or pores), which look like a hard scrub brush.
-
Activated carbon is a charcoal that is treated with oxygen in order to open up millions of tiny pores between the carbon atoms, resulting in a highly adsorbent material.

Virtually all particles in the air have a positive charge, while negative ions have a negative charge. In which case, negative ions and particles magnetically attract to one another. When there is a high enough concentration of negative ions in the air, they will attract to floating particles in large numbers. This causes the particle to become too heavy to remain airborne. As a result, the particle will fall out of the air, preventing it from being inhaled into the respiratory tract where it can trigger breathing and health problems.
The U.S.D.A. discovered the following in recent studies conducted in a poultry house, which are notoriously polluted:
- Reduced salmonella (bacteria) transmission between chicks by 98%.
- Reduced airborne salmonella (bacteria) by 95%.
- Reduced airborne dust & particles by 99% in 60 seconds.

Ionizer which disperses negative ions to seek out and remove particles & bacteria from the air. Proven by government studies to be effective, and to enhance performance of filters. ( More Info) |
 |
Anti-Bacterial Pre-Filter for larger particles, lengthening the life of the other filters. |
Other Important Benefits:
 |
Low Replacement Costs (just $25 to $50 per year for replacement filters and UV lamps). |
 |
Coverage Area up to 500 square feet. |
 |
Quiet Operation ensuring peace and quiet while running, even with its powerful fan. |
 |
Low Energy Usage ensuring low electricity costs, even if running the Multi-Tech continuously. |
Everything You Need in an Air Purifier:
Proven Results.
Many air purifiers claim to be effective, but few air purifiers on the market can provide proof that they are effective. The Multi-Tech II air purifier has proven to be nearly 100% effective in clinical test results.
Most Effective Dust & Allergen Filter Available.
True HEPA filters (recommended by the Dept. of Homeland Security) are more effective than any other type of air filter at capturing dust, pollen, ragweed, dust mites, mold spores and other allergens. Furthermore, in a Journal of Hygiene study, negative ions were found to improve efficiency of filter units.
A Way to Kill Micro-Organisms.
Most air purifiers do not have a way to destroy germs, viruses and other micro-organisms. A germicidal UV lamp is the most effective way to meet this requirement. UV light air purification is recommended by the U.S. Centers of Disease Control (CDC). Multi-Tech II's ionizer is also effective against micro-organisms. The U.S. Dept. of Agriculture studies show that negative ion air purification (ionizers) effectively reduces bacteria.
The Ability to Remove Chemicals, Fumes & Gases.
HEPA-only air purifiers cannot remove these prominent household pollutants from the air. An activated carbon filter is necessary for this job. According to Penn State Dept. of Aerobiological researchers, carbon filters serve to remove odors, volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and chemicals that other filters cannot.
A Way to Reduce Cigarette Smoke & other Odors.
Many air purifiers do not have an answer for these either. The Multi-Tech II has multiple technologies for these pollutants, including the activated carbon filter, ionizer and programmable sanitizer.
Seeks & Destroys Pollutants Across the Room.
An ionizer (i.e. negative ion air purification) is particularly capable of neutralizing airborne pollutants that do not pass through the filter. The Multi-Tech II circulates trillions of negative ions with a powerful fan to maximize this ability. The U.S. Dept. of Agriculture found negative ion air purification (ionizers) to be 99% effective at removing airborne dust & particles.
Certified to Be Safe.
The Multi-Tech II air purifier has been awarded ETL certification, proving that it is safe to use in your home or office.
Maintenance-Free.
Like most people, you are probably too busy to remember to clean your air purifier. Fortunately, the Multi-Tech II does not require maintenance, so you can get on with your life, while still experiencing pure air.
