Removing Dust Mites, Dust Mite eggs, Mold, Spores and
Mildew, animal dander, bacteria, pollen, infectious diseases,
and fungi through Honeywell EnviraCaire Elite products, will
improve your Indoor Air Quality.
POSSIBLE HEALTH SYSTEMS DUE TO BAD AIR: Sore throat·
Headaches· Runny Nose· Watery/Itchy Eyes· Nausea· Consistent
Colds· Fatigue
Zap Airborne Germs
Bacteria and Mold spores. They're nasty. So you wash, wipe and
clean.
But they can still blow through the air in your home every
time your heating and cooling system's fan runs. That's not
all. Your air conditioner's moist cooling coils can serve as
ideal breeding ground for mold, a known allergen. But there's
help: an EnviraCaire Elite Ultraviolet Air Treatment System.
Kill most germs before they re-circulate. Return-air duct
models. Mounted in the ductwork of your heating and cooling
system, the Ultraviolet Air Treatment System continuously
emits ultraviolet (UV) energy that kills a high percentage of
airborne bacteria passing by the light.
Specially designed for maximum performance and safety UV Air
Treatment products by Honeywell feature a unique design with a
special safety design that won't let bulb light, unless
properly mounted to the duct, and a special light pipe to
safely view the bulb operation.
Trap Airborne Particles
Indoor air can often be more polluted than the air outdoors.
What can you do? One important element of an overall strategy
to improve air quality is to filter the air in your home with
a whole-house air cleaner. It filters impurities from the air
that passes through it. Why care about 0.3 micron particles?
Airborne particles that measure 0.3 microns are the most
difficult size to capture.
Moisturize Parched Air
Warm, dry air acts like a giant sponge, soaking up moisture
from everything it touches. No doubt about it, air that's too
dry can take a toll on your family.
Your home can suffer too. Parched, thirsty air literally sucks
the moisture out of your home's woodwork and furnishings,
leaving them cracked or dried out.
Replenish the Moisture . Fortunately, replenishing the
moisture in your home's air is easy. EnviraCaire Elite
whole-house humidifiers add needed moisture - safely,
efficiently, and automatically.
An EnviraCaire Elite humidifier helps protect your home's wood
furnishings and contents too.
Lurking in your duct work are hundreds
of thousands of Dust Mites.

Carbon Monoxide Poisoning
CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING: THE FACTS
As colorless as the air, this sudden killer is responsible for
700 fatalities a year in the United States. Carbon Monoxide
(CO) is not to be confused with Carbon Dioxide (CO2), which is
responsible for the bubbles in your ginger ale. CO is a
product of inefficiently burnt fuels that are created by an
appliance or heating unit in the home. One in five deaths by
CO poisoning can be attributed to a malfunctioning appliance,
either due to poor maintenance or a design fault. Carbon
Monoxide is the inevitable by-product of the burning of all
carbon based fuels, and the less of it that is in the air, the
better.
CO is deadly because it is not detectable to the five human
senses. To confuse matters more, symptoms of CO poisoning
mimic common every day ailments such as migraine headaches or
the flu. This insidious threat to home safety is responsible
for 113,333 emergency situations in the U.S. every year. There
are two basic types of carbon monoxide poisoning, ACUTE and
CHRONIC.
SYMPTOMS AND DIAGNOSIS
ACUTE CO poisoning is rarely detected until its victims become
quite ill. In this kind of scenario, a heating unit or
appliance breaks down and emits lethal levels of gas in a
short time. The severity of the symptoms varies depending on
the concentration of the gas in the air. The chart below gives
you an idea of when to suspect that CO is the culprit behind
your discomfort.
The numbers below represent the concentration or amount of CO
that is in the air as per parts per million (ppm) followed by
its physical effects:
* At 35 ppm - No adverse effects until after about 8 hours of
exposure
* At 200 ppm - Mild headache after 2-3 hours of exposure
* At 800 ppm - Headache, nausea and dizziness at 45 minutes.
Physical collapse at 2 hours.
* At 1000 ppm - Loss of consciousness at 1 hour.
* At 3200 ppm - Dizziness and nausea at10 minutes. Loss of
consciousness occurs at 30 minutes.
* 12,800 ppm - Collapse, loss of consciousness and death after
1-3 minutes of exposure.
