Vortex 2500

Dust, dirt and chemical fumes are unwelcome in any home or office. The Vortex VI-2500 will help to combat these problems. The Vortex uses powerful negative ionisation cleaning techniques to purify the air. Small enough to use in any room, yet powerful enough to clean spaces up to 75sqm, the Vortex is the most compact, efficient and economical air purifier available. With no moving parts (and NO NEEDLES!!) no maintenance is required. The air becomes crisp and fresh, ideal for everyone, especially sufferers of asthma, sinusitis, hay fever, allergies and general respiratory complaints.

Unlike other powerful ionisers, it will not damage or interfere with calculators, portable telephones, radios, computers, or other sensitive equipment. Thus the benefits of placing a Vortex Air Purifier in your home or office space are numerous. The Vortex precipitates a wide variety of air borne contaminants, reduces static electricity, and can help relieve symptoms of ‘Sick Building Syndrome’ that are associated with living and working in artificial sealed environments.

Ionisation: Natures Air Cleaner

Ions are charged atoms created in nature by sunlight, moving water and moving air. Negatively charged ions are beneficial to the environment because they attract dust, pollen, mould spores and even viruses. Once these pollutants are negatively charged, they are pulled to earth by electrostatic forces. The result is clean fresh smelling air. If you have ever noticed how fresh the air becomes after a rainstorm, you’ve experienced ionisation in its grandest form. Rain produces trillions upon trillions of negative ions, making it nature’s most effective air cleaner.

Electronic Ionisation: Technology Imitating Nature

Because indoor areas are often tightly insulated and have poor airflow, natural ionisation cannot effectively take place. The Vortex Air Purifier takes over where nature stops by electronically generating a powerful stream of negative ions. The Vortex begins cleansing the moment you plug it in. The unique spiral emitter stimulates airflow by discharging over 70 trillion ions per second in a rapid, intermittently pulsing, spiral pattern, which actually draws pollutants to the device. The airborne pollutants then fall to the collection pad or to the floor in-between pulses. This low maintenance, high intensity negative ioniser will silently clean 75sqm for just a few cents a month, and wash out the air at a rate of nearly 6sqm per minute.

Unlike other ionisers, the Vortex does not rely on natural convection to bring the dirty air to the unit. In fact, it actually stimulates airflow by emitting ions in a rapid, spiral motion. In controlled tests, the VI-2500 was found to be superior in all aspects of air purification to four of the best selling US brands.

The Vortex has been specifically designed for use around computer systems and other sensitive electronics.

Mould found as major cause of Sinusitus

Research has shown that mould is the primary cause of chronic fungal sinusitis and must be eliminated for you to get lasting relief. Chronic sinusitis, an inflammation of the membranes of the nose and sinus cavity, has been increasing steadily over the last decade. Common symptoms are runny nose, nasal congestion, loss of smell and headaches. Frequently the chronic inflammation leads to polyps, small growths in the nasal passages, which hinder breathing.

Thousands have seen multiple physicians and spent lots and lots of money trying to find relief. Multiple treatment plans have been tried along with many varieties of prescription and non-prescription drugs. Even worse, many people have had multiple sinus-related operations (sometimes as many as 5) to correct the condition. But, they are still sick! Why? Because the actual culprit may not have been correctly identified, and certainly it has not been corrected.

The Real Problem:

In 1999, Mayo Clinic researchers found that the cause of most chronic sinus infections was an immune system response to fungus. The researchers studied 210 patients with chronic sinusitis. They discovered fungus in 96% of the patients. They identified a total of 40 different varieties of fungi in these patients, with an average of 2.7 kinds per patient!

The Result of the Problem:

As you breathe, you take in airborne mould particles. Then you have an allergic or an immune system reaction to these mould fragments. This reaction causes small pits to form in the membranes that line the sinuses. These pits trap mucous so that it cannot drain. The stagnant mucous gets infected which causes nasal polyps and thickening of the lining that obstructs the outflow of mucous. The polyps then cause more infection and the infection causes more polyps. Thus, there is a vicious cycle that perpetuates itself.

A Solution:

University studies as well as independent lab tests indicate that the Vortex 2500 ionic air purifier can nearly eliminate mould from the air you breathe. The Vortex 2500 takes care of many other airborne contaminants as well. In your home, use this high powered room ionizer primarily in the basement or crawl space up to 860 square feet, where mould may originate. As with all of our corona discharge ionic air purifiers, ozone emissions are very low and safe for everyone.
