People who suffer from Multiple Chemical Sensitivity, also known as MCS, have to
deal with symptoms of their condition such as a runny nose, watery eyes,
headaches and dizziness. When they are exposed to everyday chemicals such as
acetone and ammonia, people who suffer from Multiple Chemical Sensitivity can
feel many of these uncomfortable symptoms. Austin Air has dedicated some of its
air purifiers to removing chemicals and chemical fumes from indoor air. The
Healthmate Plus is one of the air purifiers by Austin Air that contains special
media that is able to eliminate chemicals and
chemical odors from the air. The Minnix family from Boston, Massachusetts has had the pleasure of experiencing
just how effective the HM-400+ is on the quality of a home's air. The
family had been experiencing a problem with a chemical odor inside their home.
With nowhere else to turn and the quality and cleanliness of their home's air in
jeopardy, the family started shopping around for air purifiers that would fit
their situation.
The Minnix family was very excited when they moved into their new home. However,
the new carpet that was just installed was giving off the chemical smell. The
chemicals and products that were used to glue down the carpet were causing the
chemical fumes to seep out form the carpet and into the home's air. Since the
home was sealed with closed windows in the cold Boston weather, the chemical
fumes had no place to escape. They circulated through the home and caused the
chemical odor to stay inside the home. The family finally decided they couldn't
handle the smell any longer and examined many different air purifiers on the
market. The Minnix family chose the Austin Air Healthmate Plus to solve their
indoor air problem. The HM-400+ was the first choice for the Minnix
family due to its ability to remove chemicals from the indoor air. The
Healthmate Plus not only is equipped with an effective HEPA filter which can
remove most contaminants and particles from the air but it also contains special
media to absrb odors. The unit contains a SuperBlend of carbon-zeolite and
potassium iodide. This “SuperBlend” of chemicals can trap and eliminate many
chemical fumes from the air, including ammonia and formaldehyde. The air that is
taken into the unit is freed of particles and toxins such as pollen, dust and
dirt. The air is then passed through the media of compounds and the chemical
fumes and chemicals are eliminated from the air.
After running the HM-400+ in their new home, the Minnix family noticed a
difference in the quality of their home's air. Air purifiers really work! The family realized that with the
help of air purifiers, a home's indoor air can become fresh and clean, no matter
what the situation may be. The Minnix family keeps their Healthmate Plus in the
living room where the new carpet was recently installed and they are pleased to
report that the chemical fumes are no longer there. These air purifiers have a SuperBlend
of compounds that has the strength and efficiency to eliminate many types of
chemicals and fumes from the air. The HM-400+ also is equipped with a
highly effective fan that can pump air at 400 cfm and the unit can clean a room
that is 1500 square feet in size and smaller. This efficiency was perfect for
the Minnix family and their new carpet problem. After using the unit, the Minnix
family realized how important and refreshing clean indoor air can be for a
family. They are grateful for the advancement in technology that Austin Air has
provided with the Healthmate Plus series of air purifiers.
