2. If you think seriously about it– how many things are more important than the quality of air we breathe? That is why OakleyAir Systems was founded. Now you can take advantage of the knowledge and experience that Oakley Air Systems has to offer. Oakley Air has over twenty five years of experience designing filtration systems for Nuclear Plants, Hospitals, Bioterrorism Test Facilities, and the like. Now you and your family can benefit from the technology we developed for these industries. We know that you have your families health as one of your highest priorities and we want to help you achieve that goal by giving your family the cleanest, healthiest air possible. The OakleyAir Filter System will enable you to accomplish this goal.

3. Fiberglass Filters: Most businesses and homes use a fiberglass or throw away filter purchased at a local hardware or retail store. The American Lung Association® of the Upper Midwest Health House® states: “Panel filters, usually 1" fiberglass filters, are the typical furnace filters installed in the ductwork of most home heating and/or air conditioning systems. These filters do little to remove contaminants from the air. The primary function of these filters are to protect the fan and minimize the amount of dust on the heating and cooling coil.” Simply put, these filters are better than nothing but are not helping your air quality at all.

4. Pleated Filters: Most people have switched to a pleated filter which are better but are still flawed in two specific ways. First, they are a front loading system that works great for a short period of time but as the particulate is accumulated, the air flow is restricted which causes your system to work harder and increases your electric bill. This air flow restriction compounds the second problem, dirty air bypass. Most pleated filters have a cardboard edge which allows 20% of the air to go unfiltered. This percentage increases as the filter becomes clogged and allows even more unfiltered air to bypass the filter medium. We will discuss these two issues in detail in the slides to follow.

5. Air Flow Issue #1- Capturing the harmful particles that make up your air. How is the OakleyAir Filter System Different? 1. Our filters allow the A/C fan to run more freely, that is there is less resistance and better air flow. This allows more of the contaminants to actually enter the filter. 2. We have a depth loading filter that actually captures these contaminants without starving the A/C of its air flow. The filter media is actually a graduated density material. This means that the larger particles are captured all along the front half of the filter while the smaller particles are captured at the back of the filter. See the figure to the right for a visual representation. This allows the filter to trap up to 95% of pollen, lint, mold spores, dust and pet dander that enters the filter while allowing the A/C fan to run at full flow.

6. Issue #2- What do we do with the contaminants that are captured? How is OakleyAir systems different? Other filters capture some of the contaminants but what happens with them? The answer is nothing. The contaminants grow and spread on the face of their filters. Because 90-95% of the air is continually recirculated within the facility, this can cause some real health issues for the children and workers. While we capture 95% of these contaminants- our filters are also equipped with a tackifier that holds onto the contaminants and eliminates their harmful effects. The contaminants –instead of growing or multiplying are killed or rendered harmless. This is because our filters are equipped with an anti-microbial treatment that has been used in hospital filters for more than 20 years that kills bacteria, mold, mildew, and other harmful spores.

7. Issue #3- Most filters allow the air and contaminants to bypass the media. Most filters are equipped with a cardboard or plastic frame. This allows a significant amount of air to go unfiltered. In fact cardboard edge filters allow 20% of the air to go unfiltered. Dirty air bypass is one of the leading causes of coil fouling which can cause your system to freeze up and prematurely burn out. Unfiltered air bypass results in no protection from biological agents and microbial contaminants –both are important concerns in the daycare environment. How is OakleyAir Systems Filters different? Bypass Elimination- The OakleyAir filter system eliminates the risk of unfiltered air bypass around the filter and the filter rack. We utilize a selvedge edge to provide self-gasketing which forces 100% of the air to pass through our superior filter media.

8. Issue #4 How do I know when to change my filter? Most filters have never been tested to determine when they should be changed. Some claim to have an extended filter life but in reality, all that is happening is that the fan is being starved even more. How is OakleyAir Systems Filters different? We have tested our filters under the most stringent of conditions. The OakleyAir Filter System ‘manages’ the dirt by utilizing depth loading which allows our filters to outperform pleated filters. The graph at the bottom shows the results from a laboratory test for filter life. The results can be easily seen – our filters out live a high capacity pleated filter by 75%, which is nearly twice the service life and last a solid 3 months. There is dramatic savings in the extended service life – reduced filters to buy, shipping/storage cost, labor cost, disposal cost and more.

9. Saves Money- The OakleyAir Filter System is the only air filter that will allow your Air Conditioner or Furnace to operate at 100% efficiency. Remember slide 4 where we talk about reduced air resistance? This is the characteristic that allows you’re A/C to run more freely. This results in more air flow, less run time to satisfy the temperature requirement and higher air flow velocity which results in more contaminants actually passing through the filters. A practical example of this is you trying to breath thru a straw. You can only get so much air and you work harder to breath. This is exactly what happens to your system with the pleated filters. When you go to install them, if the system is on, they will suck out of your hand. This is not good and demonstrates the flow loss we are demonstrating. A whistling noise around your filter is also a sign of this problem and bypass as well. This causes your system to work longer and harder and can lead to your system freezing up due to lack of air circulation. Most important, it causes the system to run longer which increases your electric bill costing you MONEY! Issue #5- With all these benefits- the OakleyAir Systems Filters have to be expensive!!!!! Wrong!!!- The OakleyAir Systems filters actually save you money and more than pay for themselves. Plus our pricing is comparable or less than pleated filters, starting at $13.75 and that includes shipping How is OakleyAir Systems Filters different?

10. Issue #6- I always forget to change my filters. From the previous slides, it should be apparent that proper filter maintenance is important in many ways. How can OakleyAir help you with this issue? We are the only company to offer a system that serves as a perfect reminder of when to change your filters. We call it the AUTOSHIP program. Every 3 months we remember for you. We will store your filter sizes, date of last filter change, and ship your filters to you automatically and follow up to ensure you have received your filters. This is not a contract but a service we offer to take one issue off of your already full plate. Let us be your filter experts while you are being the child care experts.

11. Here are all the reasons the OakleyAir Systems Filter is right for you: Captures the harmful particles that make up your air Treats the contaminants that are captured Zero Bypass Lasts a full three months Cost Effective Autoship service Can you think of any reason you should use anything else?
