As schools continue to fully re-open, many students and staff are returning with a better understanding of how germs are spread and with that, probably a bit of nervousness. Not only germs, but dust, mold, and other particulates that affect air quality are on the minds of millions of people – quite literally.
Recent studies have shown that poor air quality not only increases the spread of airborne illnesses, but can reduce focus, energy, and even cognitive function. Most of us spend 90% of our day indoors, whether we’re at work, school, the gym, or simply at home. We inhale about 3,000 gallons of indoor air every single day, but unfortunately that air can be up to five times as polluted as outdoor air!
To combat contaminants and protect students and staff, many schools are adding air purifiers for covid to their spaces. Some of the best options on the market today are the Fellowes air purifiers. These medical grade air purifiers don’t just target Covid, they actually eliminate 99.99% of all airborne odors, allergens, bacteria, and viruses. This is especially useful during allergy season. While sniffling and coughing in the spring may not be contagious, it is certainly gross!
With Fellowes Aeramax Pro air purifiers, all the air in range of the device is cycled through a four-step filtration system every 15-20 minutes. There are five fan speeds, all of which run almost silently so they won’t interrupt classes or meetings. Constructed with durability in mind, Fellowes air purifiers have reinforced housing and can be locked to prevent tampering. Different models are available to accommodate a variety of room types, from ultra-portable units ideal for classrooms to wall-mountable units that are some of the best air purifiers for large rooms.
All of these purifiers include an antimicrobial, high-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filter and a pre-filter. These thick, fibrous filters are extremely efficient at trapping droplets and particles. Plus, replacement filters for Aeramax purifiers aren’t needed as often as with other purifier brands. Using the patented EnviroSmart technology, the AeraMax Pro air purifiers are able to continuously monitor the area and automatically adjust to clean the air, conserve energy, and reduce operating costs.
Each of the five available air purifiers are designed with unique additional features to meet the individual needs of different people and spaces.
The Aeramax Pro AM2 is the perfect option for small areas like cubicles or personal offices. Lightweight and slim, this commercial air purifier has a range of 150-250 square feet. The broad floor stand offers complete stability on tables or desks and wall-mounting is a cinch. A convenient touch screen makes it easy to change the settings and see if the filters need to be changed.
The Aeramax Pro AM3 has a range of 300-500 square feet, making it ideal for small classrooms, meeting rooms, and bathrooms. With a bipolar ionizer supporting the filters, even more airborne pollutants can be safely removed throughout the day. This air purifier can sit on an aluminum alloy stand or be wall mounted and kept out of the way. This model also has a helpful touch screen across the top, so settings can be adjusted at any time.
The Pureview Aeramax Pro AM3 is an intuitive, premium version of the Pro AM3. The main upgrade on this model is the wide touch screen, which offers the same functionality as with the Pro AM3 and AM2, but also includes PureView. This extra feature shows moment-to-moment updates on the current air quality, letting users know what percentage of their room has been purified.
The Aeramax Pro AM4 is a double-wide air purifier for dust, mold, bacteria, and viruses that takes the built-in ionized field from the AM3 and amplifies it to cover a larger area. Able to clear the air in spaces up to 1,100 square feet, this HEPA and carbon filter air purifier is ready to serve busy classrooms, libraries, cafeterias, and more.
As with the Pro AM3, the Pro AM4 also has an upgraded cousin – the Pureview Aeramax Pro AM4. Once again amplifying the AM3’s capabilities with its wide design, this air purifier benefits large spaces that need to be monitored regularly. The easy-to-use touch screen has a broad face, so users can see the PureView air quality updates at any time. Set this purifier on the aluminum base or effortlessly wall mount it in a central location.
The long-term health of our beloved teachers and students must be made a priority, and classroom air purifiers do just that. Facilities that added Fellowes Aeramax Pro air purifiers to their spaces saw immediate improvement in air quality and a significant decrease in absences due to illness throughout the year. Promote safe, healthy learning environments every single day with high quality air purifiers from School Outfitters.
