Reviveaire has spent considerable time and money testing and certifying the Aireshield. The earlier versions of the filter were tested in a residential home in south Florida. Below are some of the test results:

The addition of plasma fields can potentially enhance the performance of HVAC air filters when used in combination of each other. Plasma fields used in conjunction with air filters offer additional benefits to indoor air quality when focusing on sub-micron particles (PM2.5). Plasma filters provide an additional layer of protection and improve the overall performance of the particulate filter as illustrated in the above chart. In addition, this is further reported in the December 2023 issue of the AHR journal. Increasing performance of lower MERV filter static pressure drops to higher MERV ratings, will save electricity from lower motor power requirements as well as reduce filter waste in landfills. This benefit will aid in your decarbonization efforts and lower your global warming potential. |
