Air Purification

Air-Row offers a variety of air purification options:

— For Open Ceilings (with our F-18)

— For Grid Ceilings (with our LA-248 Lay-In)

Certified and tested for improved air quality!

Air-Row Fan products are the first step in air purification. Designed to change and improve air distribution and ventilation, Air-Row Fan products break up the trapped, stale air at the ceiling, treat it, and move it to the floor, creating an air change every hour.

Air-Row recommends a 3-Fold Approach to improving air quality:

• Ventilate — Our F-18 and LA-248 destratification fans are the first step – to break up stale, trapped air and to provide regular air rotations;
• Purify – Add our BPI Bipolar Ionization system Cartridge to neutralize particulates, gases, and vapors, and throw pollutants to the floor where they may be disinfected and eliminated; and
• Filtrate — At the front end of the air handling system, Air-Row Fans recommends our UV-PCO (Ultra-Violet Photocatalytic Oxidation) Bulbs and HEPA filters with at least a MERV-13 rating. UV bulbs should not be placed in the fans where they can be exposed to the human eye.

Independent Laboratory Testing

 BPI cartridges from Air-Row Fans use an advanced Needlepoint Bipolar Ionization process. The cartridges feature two precise brush emitters made from carbon fiber that supply an ion count of 49.8 million ions/cm3 @ 115V. With the help of our 630+ CFM producing axial destratification fans, our BPI units can help clean and neutralize areas up to 1,200 square feet per application.

Negative ionization has been tested by independent, accredited laboratories to determine its effectiveness. Below are the results, listing the incubation period and the rate of reduction of specific pathogens tested. Tests were conducted by EMSL Analytical, a platinum-rated lab used by The Center for Disease Control.
