The benefits of clean air

According to the EH&E white paper, use of a whole-house air cleaner, such as Trane CleanEffects, may lower the risk of serious health outcomes and mortality caused by fine-particle exposure by 34 percent compared with the use of a standard one-inch filter. Trane CleanEffects performed best at removing fine particles (down to .1 microns) from the filtered air and had the highest clean-air delivery rate when compared to other portable or whole-house air cleaners.

"By removing the vast majority of particles through a Trane CleanEffects system, the average airborne concentration in the home is reduced, thereby lowering the exposure to harmful fine particles," said Dr. David MacIntosh, instructor at the Harvard Extension School, and principal scientist at EH&E.

Trane CleanEffects utilizes patented breakthrough air-cleaning technology to eliminate allergens and particles you don't want in your home, such as dust, pollen, bacteria, pet dander, mold spores, smoke and the common flu virus. It removes particles as small as .1 microns, or 1/1,000th the diameter of a human hair -- the size that eludes most air cleaners. Trane CleanEffects is 100 times more effective than the standard one-inch filter found in most home central systems, removing up to 99.98 percent of airborne particles and more than 99 percent of the common flu virus from the filtered air.
