@Magutza ..."I don't understand though the idea that po3 is no different to other products already on the market?"
You go on to compare FRG with hepa filters, which despite the company wanting this comparison, is not accurate.
The comparison should be with other devices that produce a range of free radicals that kill organic compounds. This would include not only 'pulsed corona discharge devices' but also UV light creating devices.
Several existing devices that are currently for sale create the free radicals that oxidize organic and non organic compounds, no matter what the size.
Free Radical generating devices have been around for decades, yet no major manufacturer has included them in their common household products, ever wonder why? It is probably the same reason that the FRG was recently rejected by whichever OEMs that Purifloh were doing their testing with.
There is no doubt the technology kills bugs of all sizes, that is not the issue. The issue is what comes out of the device after it has activated the air going into the device.
I've asked many times if someone can explain what is unique about the FRG unit compared to other pulsed corona discharge units, yet the 'answer' always is about comparing the FRG to a hepa filter, never to another pulsed corona discharge unit.
For those that still don't understand, a pulsed corona discharge device is where an electrical current is run between 2 electrodes creating a 'spark'. This 'spark' highly energises the air separating atoms and creating free radicals like ozone, hydroxyls, peroxides etc. It also changes different gases that might be in the air, like carpet smells, paint smells etc.
The 'pulsed' part comes from the unit going on and off many times per second, allowing new air to occupy the space where the prior charge happened.
It is the free radicals created that oxidize all types of particles in the air, including viruses, bacteria, carbon etc. The free radicals also oxidize the minor gases in the air, changing 'smells' to something else.
The US EPA is the one with the warning about these oxidized products not necessarily breaking down quickly. I've already linked to this several times.
People keep referring to the lab tests showing the kill rates of various bugs, what people should be asking is for the test results of what comes out of the unit under a variety of conditions, like low humidity, new paint or new carpet installed, or ripened fruit nearby, or the smell of household cleaners etc, along with the ozone and other free radical levels leaving the unit.
These are the lab results that are needed, not just the kill rate of bugs.
Perhaps someone could ask some serious questions about this type of testing at the AGM.
