Airfree Air Purifier & Air Sterilizer FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions about the Airfree Air Purifier

Q. How does it work?

A. Airfree utilizes heat to sterilize the air dragged into its patented ceramic core by air convection. Inside the ceramic core, air is sterilized at high temperatures (between 400º to 600º F.) Any living micro-organism, bacteria, and virus are incinerated regardless of how dangerous they might be.

Q. Are there any side effects?

A. Airfree does not have any side effects. Airfree uses heat to purify the air. No emissions, no ions, or new particles are generated when using an Airfree sterilizer.

Q. What is Airfree capacity?

A. Airfree P1000 was designed for (approximately 340 sq. ft.) or (2000 cu. ft..) Larger rooms require more than one device.

Q. Can Airfree be installed in closets?

A. Yes, as long as Airfree is not placed under shelves. Airfree is ideal for pantries and free of any obstacles. Recommended minimum room volume is 400 cubic ft.

Q. Can I use Airfree in air-conditioned rooms?

A. Yes. We recommend installing Airfree in all rooms in central air-conditioned homes and offices.

Q. Can Airfree be installed in a hallway to reach the whole house?

A. No. Airfree is to be placed in just one room, away from open windows and doors. The air cleaning efficiency in rooms connected to that corridor where Airfree is installed is almost none, unless those rooms have Airfrees plugged in.

Q. Can Airfree be installed in closed rooms?

A. Yes. The minimum recommended room volume is 10 m3/h.

Q. Do windows and doors need to be kept closed?

A. No. Regular ventilation does not affect Airfree efficiency. It is recommended that Airfree is not placed next to windows or doors, nor in the middle of an air stream.

Q. How long does it take to verify Airfree action?

A. Airflow varies according to room temperature and place of installation averaging 10 m3/h. After two to three weeks up to 85% of the airborne microorganism and allergen levels are reduced, when correctly plugged in 24 hours per day and installed according to the manual.

Q. Can Airfree be plugged during the day in the living room and switched to the bedroom at night?

A. No. Airfree must always be in the same room according to the Manual. Airfree’s technology works gradually and cannot have its cycle interrupted. Moving it from one room to another will interrupt the cycle.

Q. How long is the warranty?

A. Airfree warranty is 2 years from the date of purchase. Fill out the warranty card that comes with product and return to address specified.

Q. Does Airfree eliminate bacteria and germs?

A. Yes. Airfree’ s bactericide and germicide efficiency are recognized by international independent laboratories and universities.

Q. How does Airfree eliminate dust mites?

Q. How does Airfree eliminate fungus?

A. Airfree eliminates fungi. By eliminating spores, no new colonies are formed.

Q. Does Airfree destroy viruses?

A. No. Airfree’s sterilization process is natural – heat. No organic by products are created.

Q. Does Airfree heat the room?
