Airborne Pathogen Control with Air Purifiers

The following is a partial list of airborne pathogens. Compare the Disease column and the DIA Microns column. IQAir® will guarantee that they will filter out at least 99% of everything on this list (everything larger than .3 microns will be filtered at 99.97%). IQAir® Systems have been proven to be 100 times more efficient than leading competitors. The HealthPro™ Plus is recommended to remove these Pathogens at the noted percentages.
