Air Oasis Induct ACT unit is superior to many UVC induct units on the market today. Many UVC induct models rely solely on the UV rays for the reduction of mold, bacteria, viruses etc. The pollutants must be eradicated with the UV light within the air flow that leaves very little dwell time for the pollutants. Those units do nothing for VOCs or odors. Other units utilize ozone producing UVC lamps to not only reduce mold, bacteria, viruses, VOCs, and odors, but also send ozone throughout the entire home providing fresh clean smelling air throughout the home. The down side to those units is the higher levels of ozone which can cause potentially serious side effects.

With the patent-pending nanotechnology utilized by the Air Oasis Induct ACT you can receive all the benefits of ozone producing UVC lamps without the side effects. This is due to the patent-pending quad-nano Xtremeâ„¢ catalyst that completely surrounds the UVC lamp 360 degrees converting ozone into safer and highly effective ions that go out and attack the pollutants. These safer ions can effectively kill simple organisms such as mold, bacteria, viruses etc., but have no effect on complex organisms such as humans or pets. Our bodies have natural enzyme defenses against the ions produced making them dangerous to microorganisms and harmless to you.

The answer is really quite simple. It is all due to the oxidation defense system, within your body, which utilizes a special blend of enzymes. Have you ever cut yourself on accident and then used hydrogen peroxide on the wound? What happened? The hydrogen peroxide started to fizz or bubble when it made contact with your wound, right? But why? It's due to the reaction of certain enzymes within our body that protect us from hydro peroxide, ozone, hydroxyls, super oxides and more. One example is Glutathione peroxidase. It is a peroxidase found in humans, which contains selenocysteine. It uses glutathione as a electron donor and is active with both hydrogen peroxide and organic hydroperoxide substrates. Another enzyme is Catalase. Present in the peroxisomes of nearly all aerobic cells, it serves to protect the cell from the toxic effects of hydrogen peroxide by catalyzing its decomposition into molecular oxygen and water without the production of free radicals.

Superoxide dismutase (CuZnSOD) catalyses the dismutation reaction of the toxic superoxide radical to molecular oxygen and hydrogen peroxide and thus forms a crucial part of the cellular antioxidant defense mechanism. Your body also contains many other antioxidants to help protect you from oxidation. More and more of the foods we eat and the supplements we take are being loaded with antioxidants as well.
To put things in plain english; your body defends itself against these ions naturally, but mold, bacteria, viruses and other biological contaminants do not have the same defense mechanisms that we possess. Therefore the ions we produce are deadly to simply organism, but won't harm people or their pets.
