The Ovalair AIR1000 is a purifying air filter designed to improve indoor air quality through a combination of filtration and Anion technology. It is intended for indoor use only and should be operated by adults, not children under 8 years old.
Function Description:
The air purifier cleans and purifies indoor air by utilizing a multi-stage filtration system. It incorporates cold catalyst and charcoal filters to target and remove indoor air pollutants such as benzene, formaldehyde, and other Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs). Additionally, a HEPA filter is included to capture 99.7% of common allergens and irritants like pollen, pet dander, dust mites, and smoke particles. Beyond filtration, the device features an Anion ionizing function that releases negatively charged ions to freshen the air and effectively reduce odors, contributing to a more pleasant indoor environment.
