  1. Taking the risk out of living indoors!!! Presented to you by: Master Coordinators Reed & Linda Hanson Todd & Susan Hanson

  2. Take a deep breath This may be the last time you do it without thinking about what's in the air you’re breathing.

  3. What’s the big deal? Indoor Air Quality is the #1 Health concern In America according to the EPA. Sources of Indoor Air Polluters • Pets • Moisture • Pressed Wood Furniture • Humidifier • Moth Repellents • Dry-cleaned clothing • Air fresheners • Car exhaust • Paint supplies • Paneling and carpet • Vacuum cleaners • Cooking odors • Fireplace or woodstove • Tobacco smoke • Drapes • Household Cleaners • Asbestos tiles • Pressed wood cabinets • Pesticides • Lead-based paint • Dirty furnace filters • Outdoor pollutants

  4. “Of chemicals commonly found in homes, 150 have been linked to allergies, cancer, birth defects, and psychological abnormalities.” Indoor air pollution is now America’s #1 environmental health problem

  5. “Indoor air pollution is one of the most important environmental health problems.” Most homes have airborne concentrations of hazardous and toxic chemicals that are 2 to 5 times higher indoors than outdoors. Some have levels 70 times higher inside the home than outside!

  6. A 15-year study found that women who worked at home had a 54% higher rate of cancer. It’s alarming that indoor air is so full of chemical vapors, because most children spend 12 to 20 hours a day there.

  7. “Indoor air, including the air in your home, can be even more polluted than the air of a big city.” “A 1999 Mayo Clinic study found that nearly 37 million Americans have chronic sinus problems because of mold.”

  8. Challenges of indoor air quality. • Indoor air pollution is 2-5 time higher than outdoor air. • People spend 90% of their time inside. • The #1 cause of school absences in America is Asthma. • Particulate, Gases, and Microbial levels are rising • No single technology works on all 3 problem areas.

  9. Three Types of Pollutants • Particulate • Dust • Dander • Pollen Summer dust bunny from under a bed, composed of cloth fibers, moth wing scales, human and cat hairs, and sunflower pollen. If it's in your ducts It’s in your lungs.

  10. Three Types of Pollutants • Gases • Volatile Organic Compounds • Carbon Monoxide • Odors Volatile Organic Compounds are chemical compounds that easily evaporate (volatile). Formaldehyde is probably the most common VOC found in homes. Other common V.O.C.'s: Gasoline, benzene, alcohol, toluene, Xylene, turpentine, cleaning chemicals. V.O.C.'s can be found in building materials and home products, such as: Paint, solvents, caulking, tobacco smoke, construction adhesives, particle board shelving & kitchen cabinets, laminated wood veneer furniture, wall paper, particle board sub flooring, interior-grade plywood, urea-formaldehyde foam insulation, dyes, inks, medicines, new carpet out gassing, carpet padding, carpet adhesives, hair products, paper products, cleaning products, etc. Medical journals have documented the negative effects of VOC exposure to include: dizziness, nausea, fatigue, reduced limb strength, headaches, eye, nose, throat irritation, breathing difficulties, shortness of breath, excessive phlegm, dermatitis, chest pain, wheezing, diarrhea, vomiting, etc. Formaldehyde and other V.O.C.'s have been linked to cancer in animal studies.

  11. Three Types of Pollutants • Microbials • Bacteria • Viruses • Molds

  12. Mold Sources

  13. Mold in your home Molds hide where we can’t always see them.

  14. Mold in Middleton Freeman was getting sick and didn't know why. He got weak, had to take two or three naps daily, and developed muscle tremors and skin rashes. His wife Cyndi had similar but less severe symptoms. "We had no energy. We were just beat all the time," he said. Doctors first suspected Freeman was afflicted by early Alzheimer's, Parkinson's or ALS -- Lou Gherig's disease. Finally an allergist told Freeman he was highly allergic to black mold, and a test confirmed huge numbers of spores in the house were from the toxic molds Aspergilla and Cladosporium. Mold was forming where a toilet and dishwasher had leaked into the flooring. A dryer and oven were vented into the crawl space, adding moisture. While Freeman had repairs made, the couple lived in their camper for two months. The cost for remediation: more than $20,000. Mold forces families out of house Fungi a culprit in a variety of health troubles Jim and Lisa Rector are shown in their Boise home. The Rectors moved out of the home in October because a mold found in the crawl space. The mold, Stachybotrysatra, has been known to cause sinus problems and other health issues. The Rectors have spent a great deal of money getting rid of the mold, including tearing up carpet and bleaching walls in the home. We are not immune

  15. Insurers Worry About Toxic Mold Claims “Insurance companies thought the asbestos problem was enormous, and this is going to make that look small.”

  16. Do you know who you are sleeping with? If your pillow is 10 years old, 10% of the weight could be dust mites and their feces.

  17. Sick BuildingsMake People Sick • Long-term health effects from repeated exposure to polluted air include some respiratory diseases, heart disease, and cancer. “It is prudent to improve indoor air quality in your home even when symptoms are not noticeable.”

  18. What is the solution? • Multiple technologies that address all 3 of the pollution problem areas. • Quiet and easy to operate. • Energy efficient and very low maintenance. • Cost effective • The best you can get for truly clean air.

  19. The best source for truly clean air!

  20. How It Works. • Photo-Hydro-Ionization • Photo-hydro-ionization occurs when light energy from the ultraviolet (UV) lamp reacts with the tri-metallic catalyst. This reaction creates super oxide ions and hydro-peroxide radicals. These ions and radicals, together with moisture and ozone in the air create an anti-microbial and anti-bacteriostatic environment resulting in reduced odors and microbials in the air. • P.I. Is effective against: • Odors, Carbon Monoxide, and Volatile Organic Compounds. • Micro-Organisms, Bacteria, Viruses & Molds • Electron Generation • The electron generator in the unit emits electrons into the surrounding air, reducing the static charge inside rooms and neutralizing positively charged particles. • The neutrally charged particles agglomerate and become heavier particles. Gravity is now able to pull the particles to the ground. • E.G. is effective against: • Sub-micron Particles & dust • Airborne Microorganisms

  21. How It Works. AirSource actively sends out an army to purify the air we breath. Filters can only work on the air that passes through them.

  22. How well does it work?

  23. How well does it work?

  24. Energy Efficient & Low Maintenance Uses the electricity of a 20w bulb. Yearly replacement of the UV light & catalyst module.

  25. Cost Effective $59 $71 First year: 24 cents per sq. ft. After first year: 2 cents per sq. ft.

  27. Testimonials Dear Amber, Thank you for letting me try your AirSource last week - I'm just thrilled! My son, Brandon who has had a runny nose since he was born 3 years ago, hasn't even sniffed in the past 5 days! My 7-month old baby is sleeping better at night - as is my husband and 5 year old! But the person who has seen the biggest change is me...I was diagnosed with severe, sudden asphycsic asthma - the worst kind - when I was 7 years old and have battled with tough breathing for the past 18 years. I've been on every drug available from inhalers to steroids but nothing has worked. I am attached to my nebulizer constantly. I can’t laugh too hard or bag my own groceries. Until now. My asthma has significantly improved over the past week since I've been running my AirSource - my whole family is in awe! I'm off the steroids and haven't used my nebulizer for a week now. I'm using my inhaler about half as often as usual - even my chronic headaches are gone! I can't thank you enough for sharing AirSource with me - It has changed my life in ways I’ve only dreamt about.
