Allergy Machine vs. HealthMate
The HealthMate purfiers have a true medical HEPA
filter surrounded by a carbon/zeolite mixture which
adsorbs
odors and gases. The Allergy Machine has a HEGA
filter, comprised of a true medical HEPA filter
placed outside an advanced military carbon cloth
which absorbs odors and gases. Both products are
effective for those with allergies and asthma.
The Allergy Machine may be more effective for people
who smoke or are in contact with more odor sources,
and since it is lighter in
weight it can be moved from room-to-room more easily.
HealthMate models are more effective for
persons with chemical sensitivities.
HealthMate vs. HealthMate+
The HealthMate and HealthMate+ both
use a true medical HEPA filter, granular carbon
and
zeolite.
The carbon in the HealthMate+ is impregnated
with potassium iodide, which makes the unit even
more effective at removing formaldehyde and ammonia.
Sources of formaldehyde in homes can be carpets,
wood construction and furniture materials (MDF,
plywood, etc.) and upholstery. The HealthMate+
is especially good for use
in places
with high levels of chemical use
or off-gassing, such as new
and remodeled homes, laboratories, beauty salons
and other businesses.
Pet Machine vs. HealthMate
The HealthMate has a true medical HEPA filter
surrounded by a carbon/zeolite mixture which adsorbs
odors and gases. The Pet machine's carbon/zeolite
mixture is specially impregnated to remove
pet/ammonia
odors.
Standard vs. Junior
A standard purifier cleans up to 1500 square
feet and is good for a one-story house or apartment.
A junior unit cleans up to 700 square feet and
would be recommended for a single room.
