Ionic Breeze. A REAL consumer review?

Mar 27, 2008 by LeAnn | Posted in Other - Home & Garden

My groom and I are looking to purchase the Ionic Breeze. I really like the philosophy of no filters. I would however like to ask for some honest opinions before we overstate this purchase. Does it actually work like it says it will? How about that but Bathroom Ionic Breeze? Does that really work? Do you think that 1 would be enough to overspread the whole house or would we need a few of them? If you have purchased one of these or have any experience with one please let me be informed your thoughts. Thanks!

I have always had lousy allergies and have suffered with constant sinus infections, crippling allergy affliction, etc. Constant sinus infections to the point where they would commonly up-end into severe respiratory infections.

The ionic breeze changed my biography.

I'm no longer sick all the time.

One fad I have noticed, though, is that you need to clean it more than once every 2 weeks. I clear mine every 3 days or so but, I could go as long as 5 - 7 days. I also have 3 cats which might be contributing to this.

I would in principle have 2 of these for my 2 bedroom apartment, one for the master bedroom and one for the notify living area.

Why does my ionic breeze seem to be losing it's effectiveness at eliminating odors?

Sep 16, 2006 by JT | Posted in Other - Home & Garden

I've had my two ionic breezes for over 2 years now and even though they still nab airborn particles the smell is increasingly bad by the catbox - it acquainted with to work better. I tilt it up and down several times to reactive it like I've been encouraged to do but the foetor is not getting better and it's sitting inches away from the sedan chair box? The small one in the bathroom got better after I tilted it up and down to make the inner compartments move up and down several times. Ideas?
I regularly out the collection area - so that is NOT it.

There are three doable causes.

!) Overload. There is more odor being generated than there tolerant of to be and the thing can't handle the increased pile.

2) Cleaning and 3) low voltage. (related causes)

Essentially, these are electrostatic precipitator units. They do not truly filter odors out the air (If there is a filter, the filter hardly removes the bigger particles, ones big enough to see), but effort by applying a charge to the tiny particles that obsolete through a set of wires and the particles then pass beween charged plates which invite the charged particles, trapping them on the surface of the gatherer plates. This causes a layer to form after a while which acts like an insulator which reduces the effectiveness. Principally, this will be very sticky after a while from oils in the air from things like using a frying pan. In addition, if the power supply voltage drops, it also limits the effectiveness. Either way, fewer particles are unruffled per unit time as the plates get dirtier and/or the voltage drops for some think rationally. The reason for a voltage drop could be something as simple as cool particles eventually providing a semi-conductive avenue from the ionizer section to the collector section or the power delivery could be failing. The power supply is designed for very apex voltage at very low current. Any path for electrons jumping the plates will have a bountiful effect at lowring the voltage.

Reaally BIG units which business on the same principle of collecting particles by using a fixed electrical charge are used in some smoke stacks to Medicine set particulate matter leaving the stack and break off or have reduced effectiveness for exactly the same reasons.

ionic breeze ionizes the air too much?

Dec 06, 2006 by surrylic | Posted in Other - Home & Garden

I have been told that is one of the complaints about the ionic breeze, but I have no construct what that means. Someone checking the air in our house (we thought we had mold) told us to put it in the bathroom because we have mold there, but nowhere else in the household. He also said that we shouldn't leave it operation all the time because it will ionize the air too much.

Truly, ionic breezes create ozone, which is harmful to people.

The guy was properly, though - you really only need to run it an hour per day, if that.

I have so much dust! Whats your opinion on the Ionic Breeze air filtering system?

Aug 27, 2007 by Just Jess | Posted in Cleaning & Laundry

I'm 20 years old. I business full time + I am a full timecollege student living at where one lives stress - however my bedroom is more like a dorm room/trifling studio appartment. I have small siblings (Ages 5,7and8) and regrettably they dont respect my property (I guess its well-deserved a sibling thing) ..so ALL my stuff is kept in my bedroom (EVEN MY CAT!) ...

You're quite thinking its terrible, but my bedroom is quite charitable. I have 2 large walk in closets and a bathroom. It really is more like a studio appartment minus the caboose.

PROBLEM = DUST! I think maybe becuase I have so much talents, it creates more dust. I often go through my things and get rid of things i dont want/dont use. The other thing is that my bedroom door is always closed - I have 3 overweight windows in here, and we have central air - but i dont think that the air state of affairs is as good as it would be if my door was opened more of the time.

I dust EVERY WEEKEND. It takes me about 4 hours to dust my bedroom!
Every week there seems to be MORE dust (And cat fraction!) than the week before.

I told my boyfriend how i feel like so much of my weekend is wasted dusting! (But I have to do it - i CANT alight with dust. It makes me feel congested and foul) and he mentioned the ionic breeze. He said you put it on and it sourt of sucks in dust and dander and other foul things from the air.

I DO have an airfilter thing in my bedroom. Its Monumental and takes up a LOT of space - I run it about every day but i notice that when i DONT run it - the air supremacy stays the same.

(And i dont use a regular duster, i use out away dusting cloths (usually swiffer) so that i'm not well-founded pushing dust around)

ANY suggestions/advice/products would be Unreal.

I have an Ionic Pro, but I have been foiled. It fails to meet many of the claims. It is shut up in my bedroom the dust is not surely affected. It makes noises about every three days and needs to be cleaned. Cleaning is not naughty but the plates need to air dry for 24 hours. Of execution, you can purchase an extra set. It is expensive for no more than it helps. I also have a Bionaire hepa purify that is similar in size and makes a huge dissension in air quality and dust. Good Luck in the war on dust!

THE INSPECTORS CORNER. Air Purification For Real Estate Professionals

My passion is air dignity. I mean no incense, candles, or those products that contain oils that are plugged into an electrical opening. I do not use Fabreeze or any other spray that is supposed to make our homes fragrance better. I don't want to come home from a long day out in the the human race to a house that smells like pumpkin pie, especially when there is no pie. Why is it that we use so many sprays? The insight why we use so many of these chemicals is because we do not know any better. The next time you pick up a can of Lysol. You recollect the product that is the cure all for the human race. When you pick it up, relate to b be hostile to it around and read the label showing the ingredients. One of the main ingredients is Ethanol which is in racing stimulate.

 I have a line of air quality products that I would like to announce to the real estate professionals of SW. Florida. Going back to Pace 5th 2008 I wrote a Blog at active rain under my heading The Inspector's corner, called did your last bring to light house stink. Homes that have been closed up for months or even years are now known as a" mental building" or having "dirty sock syndrome".

 My air purification products are all over SW Florida from fastener salons to UPS stores. These machines are providing home owners and trade owners with indoor air quality second to none. When I am called in to do an assessment and when mold testing is needed, I get in one of my machines to get a head start against what may be discovered by the lab testing. When mold counts prearranged the home are higher than outside the home remediation is the level of the day. Results are clear. I have retested a subject house after uninterrupted my air purification machine and found that the numbers have changed. The indoor mold consider has become less than the outside or nearly the same. The machine works. The JMI 3000 is eulogistic up to 3000 sq ft. The JMI 1000 purifies up to 1000 sq ft. The JMI 200 is a close up in and is great for near the kitchen garbage can, the bathroom, or even near the young box. The is pure deodorizing with out the Candles or plug in oil units.
