ALLERAIR 5000 VOCARB - PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

From cleansers and paint fumes, to off-gassing from formaldehyde-treated furniture and PVC-encased electronic equipment, most indoor air is permeated with potentially harmful chemical gases, many of which are odourless or even pleasant smelling. The AllerAir 5000 Vocarb air purifier is designed specifically to adsorb formaldehyde, benzene, vinyl chloride and other Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) produced by commonly used household products, newly-built homes, paint, carpets, flooring, upholstery, drapery and office equipment, as well as almost all art and hobby materials.

The AllerAir 5000 Vocarb air purifier features a powerful, four-stage filtration system that uses 18 lbs. of specially blended activated MAC-B™ carbon impregnated for effective VOC removal, and a medical-grade HEPA filter to eliminate 99.97% of airborne particles (e.g., pollen, dust, mould spores, pet dander, particles from combustion appliances) down to 0.3 microns. An optional ultraviolet (UV) germicidal lamp can also be added to the unit to help control airborne microbes (e.g., bacteria, viruses). The AllerAir 5000 Vocarb is simple to maintain (the pre-filter can easily be removed and vacuumed), and because it uses individual HEPA and carbon filters, they can be changed at different time intervals, making the unit economical to operate. The cylindrical shape of the AllerAir 5000 Vocarb maximizes air circulation, 3 fan speed settings allow total air flow control, while casters provide easy maneuverability. In addition, the AllerAir 5000 Vocarb has an all-metal housing that eliminates toxic off-gassing and a baked-on powder-coated finish for safety and durability.

The AllerAir 5000 Vocarb is perfect for open concept living spaces, large bedrooms, kitchens, basements, workshops, hobby rooms, apartments, offices and artist studios. This model is also an ideal choice for those who want to operate an air purifier at a lower fan speed to minimize noise while maintaining high effectiveness. The AllerAir 5000 Vocarb has a sleek, stylish design and is available in eight different colours to blend easily into almost any décor.

The AllerAir 5000 Vocarb air purifier is our top recommendation for the abatement of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs), as well as other airborne chemicals, gases and odours. For an additional cost, this unit can be customized to your specific needs with one of over 40 special blends of impregnated carbon to handle specific compounds such as ammonia, sulphur dioxide, chlorine and many others.

** An Important Word on Air Flow Rates and Room Coverage for the AllerAir 5000 Vocarb Air Purifier:

Many retailers and manufacturers overstate maximum room coverage figures by calculating them with air flow rates measured without filters installed (i.e., fan output) or with too low a number of air exchanges per hour to properly clean the room. Modern Alchemy Air Purifiers believes in stating the actual delivered air flow rates for the air purifiers we sell, as well as realistic room coverage figures calculated at effective air cleaning levels. Accordingly, we recommend that the Allerair 5000 Vocarb be used in rooms of up to 115 sq. ft. (for premium cleaning) or 230 sq. ft. (for general purpose filtration).

Also note that air purifier performance should not be judged by air flow rates and room maximums alone. Many features that make an air purifier more effective at cleaning the air actually reduce the air flow rate. For example, higher grade HEPA filters, well-sealed filtration systems and large amounts of carbon all increase air resistance and reduce delivered air flow rates.
