Since we spend most of our time in our homes and workplaces, it’s becoming more and more important to make sure our homes and businesses have clean, filtered air. With the recent COVID-19 situation, many people are looking for methods to help ensure their environment is free from pollutants, irritants, and specifically viruses.
In this post we want to share some encouraging information with you regarding an air purification system made by Carrier.
Carrier’s Infinity Whole Home Air Purifier
Carrier has been producing top-notch indoor air quality products for years. One of Carrier’s top products, the Infinity® air purifier, can provide healthier indoor environments for both homes and businesses. Families can have added peace of mind that their loved ones have a cleaner and healthier home in which to live, learn, work and play.
According to Carrier, their Infinity® air purifier has been proven to inactivate 99% of select viruses that are trapped on the filter, including the coronavirus.
Third Party Testing
Recent testing done at the University of Colorado Department of Civil, Environmental and Architectural Engineering found that the Carrier® Infinity® air purifier inactivates 99% of coronavirus trapped on the filter. The University of Colorado’s testing was conducted with a murine coronavirus that is closely related to the human coronavirus SARS-CoV-2, which causes COVID-19. This murine pathogen surrogate allowed testing to be completed safely.
Other third-party testing also found that Carrier’s Captures & Kills® technology inactivates 99% of select viruses and bacteria trapped on the filter, such as a common cold virus surrogate, Streptococcus pyogenes and human influenza.
