Air filtration device

Air Filtration Device

Water intrusion can introduce bacteria into the to air. Air movement will also kick up dust and other particulates, creating further contamination. This device can help capture mold spores to avoid from spreading. Using an Air Filtration Device will help a space become occupiable as quickly as possible.

Quick Fact Sheet

Filtration

This HEPA filter removes 99.99% of .1-.5 micron particulates - the most harmful size for humans to breathe.

Clearance

Do not block any side of the device. It requires ventilation in order to be as efficient as possible.

Features

Use optional Layflat Ducting with the provided outlet duct ring that fits on the unit's inlet or outlet to duct filtered air into or out of adjacent spaces.

Activity

Run the machine continuously for best results. Shutting the device(s) off for temporary periods will increase cleaning times.

Specs

  • Variable to 700 CFM

  • 23 X 17 X 26 in.

  • 42 lbs

  • 1.5 - 3 amps (115v, 60 Hz)

FAQ

  • Yes, this device is designed to run continuously. It can also be shut off and on as needed.

  • They draw air in, pass it through a series of filters. A HEPA filter is designed to remove at least 99.97% of airborne particles 0.3 microns in diameter. This size is considered the most difficult to filter.

  • Position the air scrubber in a central location within the affected area to maximize airflow and air changes per hour (ACH). Consider the airflow patterns and try to create a negative air pressure environment if containment is necessary (especially for Category 2 or 3 water damage).

  • Yes, closing windows and doors helps to contain the contaminated air and ensures that the air scrubber is effectively filtering the air within the affected space.

  • YouDri regularly changes filters so that clients don’t have to replace them during a project.
