The unit emits energy pulses into the air creating millions of positive and negative ions. Ions start as stable molecules within an air space. As radio waves move away from the units antenna at the speed of light, some of the molecules get charged. These newly charged ions have a magnetic effect on airborne pollutants. Negative ions are not dependent upon air flow or circulation.
Ozone is a natural disinfectant that kills bacteria, mold, dust mites, yeast and fungi.
Unlike other disinfectants that take several minutes to be effective, ozone kills almost instantaneously by rupturing the cell wall of the bacteria. Ozone eliminates odors. The SpringAir purifier does not mask odors with perfumes and chemicals. It actually breaks down odor causing molecules. Ozone reduces organic material into carbon dioxide, water vapor and oxygen.
