Breathing Does Matter Healthy Breath Unhealthy Breathing An Affordable Health-Care Option

The air we breathe is not an unlimited resource

Location often effects indoor air quality Location Picture of Tall office building In big city with traffic A solution to Indoor Air Quality that lasts and is affordable

Using Reactive Oxygen Species to destroy contaminants Significantly reduced viruses, mold, bacteria & TVOC’s Invisible Airborne contaminants Genesis Panel Kill Zone Working away from the occupied space: Passive Safe Like the atmosphere, Genesis works apart from where living creatures breathe Total Contaminants Various Sources Open Door or Window Off Walls Floors & Furnishings Exhaled Breath Treated Air

Photo Catalytic Oxidation Panels Everyone can enjoy clean air !!!! Why capture a problem ? What do these units have in common? Remember a dead or destroyed spore, bacteria or virus will not be back to infect another day PCO field of destruction

Does it cost you to breathe healthy air? $$$ Are never the full story Feeling BetterBreathing Deeply Picture

It Costs,…… doing nothing………. You are more than a statistic !!!!!!! One of the best studies to date on quantifying potential health and productivity benefits from providing good indoor environmental conditions — IAQ, thermal and lighting — was conducted by William Fisk, head of the Indoor Environment Department at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, and his colleagues. Their findings reflect an analysis of a large number of earlier studies.William FiskIndoor Environment Department at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory Potential Annual Health Care Savings And Productivity Gains From Improving Indoor Environments (Fisk and Rosenfeld 1997). Source of Productivity GainPotential Annual Health Benefits in U.S. Potential U.S. Annual Savings on Productivity Gain (1996 $U.S.) Reduced respiratory disease16 to 37 million avoided illnesses$6 to $14 billion $23 to $54 per person Reduced allergies and asthma10 to 30 percent decrease in symptoms in 53 million people with allergies and 16 million people with asthma $2 to $4 billion $20 to $80 per person (with allergies) Reduced sick building syndrome symptoms 20 to 50 percent reduction in symptoms experienced frequently by 15 million workers $10 to $30 billion $300 per office worker Improved worker performance from changes in thermal environment and lighting Not applicable$20 to $160 billion They also estimated the annual economic costs of common respiratory illnesses (reported in 1996 dollars). 180 million lost workdays 120 million additional days of restricted activity $36 billion ($140 per person) in health care costs $70 billion ($270 per person) total cost

Businesses, Homes, Offices and School Classrooms are filled with the air we breathe. Do not become a Statistic Make it clean air With Model D&L Model: CU Model: FP /DT
