The 5000 Vocarb
Facts about VOCs
The EPA has found that levels of VOCs are 2 to 3 times higher than
they originally believed.
Many VOCs are known carcinogens.
  Impregnated activated carbon bed
alleviates environments with Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC)
Chemicals have replaced bacteria and virus as the main threat
to human health in western industrial nations
Dangerous health effects associated with exposure to VOCs
Eye, nose and throat irritation.
Headaches, nausea and diminished coordination.
Liver, kidney and central nervous system damage.
Everyday household products which contain VOCs include:
- Paint, wood preserves and solvents
- Aerosol spray
- Disinfectant. Moth repellant and air freshener
- Hobby supplies
- Fuels and automotive products
- Dry-cleaned clothing
Even when these products are stored, they continue to emit VOCs.
Upon the use of these products, VOC levels are up to 500 times
higher than usual.
The EPA identifies indoor
air quality as the number
one pollution problem we
have today.
We spend up to 90% of
each day indoors, and half
of that time is in our own
home.
Most domestic purifiers only
protect you from particles.
They spray a few grams of
carbon on mesh, but that's
simply not enough to
protect you from the
hazardous effects of gasses
odors and chemicals.
Impregnated activated
carbon is the material the
military uses for their gas
masks.
An effective air purifier
increases the quality of
your life, so invest in an
AllerAir unit today.
Examples of VOCs often found in indoor air:
Formaldehyde
A known carcinogen found in older insulation, furniture, carpet, glue and
tobacco smoke. Leads to burning in your throat, watery eyes, nausea, difficulty
breathing, and it can bring on asthma attacks.
Mold micro-toxins
These highly carcinogenic VOCs are the by-product of mold infestations
(even when they are dead and dried up). They are toxic to humans.
Tobacco smoke
A known carcinogen found to contain more than 400 chemicals and gasses.
Methylene chloride
A known carcinogen found in aerosol paint and solvent causes symptoms
associated with carbon monoxide.
Ammonia
Originate from cleaning products and litter boxes, these VOCs cause eye and
skin irritation, nose bleeding and sinus problems.
