The PIONAIR Smart Pointe uses actively-generated negative ions to clean the air.

The challenge with most air filters or purifiers is that air must be drawn to the unit, either through natural air flow or through the use of a fan. This method results in uneven treatment and can leave pockets of polluted air, plus fans are noisy, subject to failure and require higher levels of electricity.

Unlike most air purifiers, the PIONAIR Air Treatment System doesn't wait for pollutants to contact a filter or plate. Instead, the PIONAIR generates air-purifying technology that migrates through the area and neutralizes organic odors, microbes and molds at their source. As a result, the PIONAIR produces fresh clean air throughout your home or office uniformly, by addressing the pollutant source, without the use of fans, filters or plates.

The SMART POINTE uses the same technology as our original PIONAIR system, with the added benefit of actively-generated negative ions. These actively-generated negative ions clear the air of particulates faster than the original PIONAIR system. Therefore, the PIONAIR SMART POINTE is effective against particulates such as pollen, dust, pet dander and smoke, as well as mold, mildew, organic odors and chemical vapors (such as formaldehyde).

Since many allergic reactions are triggered by airborne particulates, the SMART POINTE is a perfect choice for those of us who suffer from allergies. The SMART POINTE is also an excellent choice for anyone contending with high concentrations of pollen, dust, pet dander or smoke.
 

How the PIONAIR works

The technology in your PIONAIR System uses photocatalysis, which is designed to oxidize organic odors, germs, and fungi in an average room or office. Natural air purification is performed by the UV light rays of the sun and ozone, which is produced by thunderstorms. This is why air smells so fresh after a thunderstorm. Ion generation occurs in nature from lightning and ultraviolet radiation.

The PIONAIR technology uses these natural methods by creating ultraviolet light rays, safe levels of ozone, and passive negative ions as part of your air treatment process. The other part of the process is a catalyst made from Ti02 (titanium dioxide), that when activated, generates hydroxyl radicals and super oxide ions. This system is not an air filter. It is an air purifier duplicating Nature's own methods of air cleaning and revitalization.


 

What are Ions and how do they work?

Ions occur naturally in nature. Ions are electrically charged particles that are positive or negative. There is a "natural balance" maintained by nature. The ratio is approximately six positive ions to five negative ions. Indoors, this ratio is off balance because of the abundance of positive ions and the lack of negative ions.

This disruption of the natural balance is primarily caused by building materials used in the structures in which we spend 90% of our time. The negative ion gives up its charge to the pollutants such as dust, pollen, bacteria, smoke, and formaldehyde. This new negative particle attracts positive particles until they become heavy enough to fall out of the air we breathe. This process is called "agglomeration." Your PIONAIR produces negative ions, duplicating this natural process, thereby reducing these and other particles in the air.
