How Do Ion's Work?

Fresh Air & Negative Ions
One of the distinct differences between "fresh" outdoor air and "stale" indoor air is the balance of negative ions versus positive ions. The freshest outdoor air has high concentrations of negative ions — specifically, oxygen molecules with an extra electron attached — and relatively few positive ions (oxygen with an electron stripped away). 

High concentrations of negative ions are found in the most invigorating outdoor places — evergreen forests, around waterfalls, on beaches with crashing surf, or anywhere after thunderstorms, when the air seems almost crisp and spicy with freshness! 

At the other extreme, positive ions are found in high concentrations inside closed, air-conditioned and heated buildings, and outdoors in cities during rush hours (pollution depletes negative ions). 

Many believe that this balance of negative ions versus positive ions may someday be controlled indoors — just as we currently regulate indoor air's humidity and temperature. In this way, we would hope to restore our homes and work environments to something more like those refreshing outdoor places. 

U.S. Dept. of Agriculture
A recent study by the U.S. Dept. of Agriculture found that ionizing a room led to 52% less dust in the air, and 95% less bacteria in the air (since many of the pollutants found in the air reside on floating dust particles).

The U.S.D.A. also performed another study to test the effectiveness of negative ionization at removing airborne Salmonella Enteritidis. The negative ions drastically reduced the airborne salmonella particles, prompting the following statement from the USDA: 

"These results indicate that negative air ionization can have a significant impact on the airborne microbial load in a poultry house and at least a portion of this effect is through direct killing of the organisms."

EFFECTIVENESS

A year long study by eminent researchers in air pollution science has concluded that Wein ionic air cleaners can substantially reduce the inhalation of toxic particles such as smoke, dust, pollens, molds, many allergens, fungi, germs and the most dangerous particles that would otherwise remain trapped in the lungs. This study was performed by leading authorities in air pollution research in laboratories that have no equal in this country that are used by EPA, NIH, OSHA, CDC, NIOSH, HUD, NIST, and NATO Wearable and stationary ionic air cleaners from three different manufacturers were evaluated and the results and conclusions reviewed by experts . The Wein ionic air cleaners surpassed the other manufacturers by a wide margin. Indeed , in one study of a competitor's room unit versus the Wein Vortex VI-2500, 50% of the most dangerous particles still remained airborne and breathable while the Vortex VI-2500 eliminated over 95% of these particles. In other words, the Wein VI-2500 Unit was 10 times more effective.

SAFETY

Ozone levels have been tested as safe by Underwriters Laboratories, USA, Fuji Testing Laboratories, Japan, University of Southern California, Advanced Pollution Instruments, USA. The Authors of this report conclude: The research teams at the Department of Environmental Health at the University of Cincinnati Medical Center are very excited about these studies and are now considering two papers to be prepared and submitted to major peer - reviewed journals with international circulation.
