HEPA Air Purification Added to Stetson University

Renowned University Makes History Again with Installation of ISO-Aire™ Units

Stetson University, a top-ranked private college in Central Florida, is welcoming students back to campus with Safer Stetson protocols in place. Included in the college's risk mitigation handbook for COVID-19 preparedness, Stetson's facilities management team is following safe indoor air filtration guidance from ASHRAE. Steps to reduce the transmission of airborne pathogens through the utilization of supplemental devices includes the installation of six patent-pending ISO-Aire air purification units in larger community spaces such as the campus cafeteria, classrooms and the music performance hall.

Stetson is the first college to proactively purify the indoor air
with supplemental ISO-Aire clean air technology.

Each recirculating unit contains dual medical-grade filtration including a 99.99% HEPA filter (at .3 microns) as well as ozone-free bipolar ionization. Together the proven components protect the space by helping to ensure 99.99% of potentially harmful air particulates like viruses, bacteria, mold, and pollen are captured and destroyed.

The ISO-Aire units utilize an "offense" and "defense" strategy via ozone-free bipolar ionization and HEPA air filtration:

  • A continuous output of positively and negatively charged ions “scrubs” the air. The proactive ions work offensively, attaching themselves to airborne particles and agglomerate, meaning they surround particles helping them gain mass. As the clusters bulk up, some fall to the floor while others will be pulled toward the building’s HVAC system or into the ISO-Aire unit, where they are captured by the "defense" – the front line pre-filter or ultimately the 12-inch HEPA;

  • The ions’ magnetic-like properties also enable them to surround microscopic airborne germs – like bacteria and viruses – pulling away essential hydrogen. This neutralizes or even kills the germs, reducing risk of infection.

Emerging evidence and clean indoor air advocacy from public health officials is urging leaders to invest in further research to understand how COVID-19 can be transmitted by airborne particles. Microscopic particulates, such as Coronavirus particles measuring .1 to .12 microns in diameter, can penetrate the lungs and bloodstream when inhaled, posing a dire threat to human health. These are captured and eliminated inside the ISO-Aire unit ensuring cleaner, safer indoor air for all.
