Recap 2009 - PURE AIR

HARDAGE & POLLEXSUPERSTARTexas Mutual Insurance is a three billion dollar national company with locations in multiple statesthroughout the country. They are a very progressive company and had heard about the PHI Technologyfrom one of their technicians, who had attended a PHI Technology Training hosted by Insco Distributingand taught by Todd Montgomery from Hardage & Pollex. Texas Mutual Insurance extended an invitationto Todd Montgomery to meet with some of their upper management to explain the benefits of PHITechnology and possible application for their Austin facility. After a very productive two hour meetingwith the Operations Manager, Facilities Manager and Regional VP, Texas Mutual Insurance decidedto have four independent labs test the results of the product at four separate practical applications. Theresults were so positive, within one month they installed 30+ units in their Austin facility.The Austin facilitycontains two 400 ton air handlers and one 12 ton system. The units performed so well, with theTodd Montgomerycompany recording a significant drop in absenteeism, Texas Mutual had 30+ units installed in an affiliated building in Austin. Theyare working on installing the product in all their locations nationwide.No Ozone - Facts and FictionMany UV light manufacturers (stick lights) are claiming “noozone” in their literature, which is technically not true. All UVlights, including our UV line, give off some ozone; usually inthe.003 -.08 ppm range (this can vary due to test point andmethods). This is not a problem as many electrical productsgive off ozone! The California “no ozone” initiative is illfounded. We agree with the California position on ozone airpurifiers as high levels of ozone are harmful, but to say productsmust be “ozone-free” is over the top. Products that emitsome ozone include electric motors, refrigerators, televisions,copy machines, UV lights, dishwashers, projectors, hair dryers,industrial and commercial lighting and transformers, toname a few, and Mother Nature makes ozone with lightningand sunlight. Most scientists believe ozone is nature’s way ofcleaning the air. This is why the outdoor air after a thunderstormsmells so clean.Just what is ozone? Ozone is a pale blue gas that is actuallyan oxygen molecule with a third atom. Oxygen is O2 andozone is O3. Ozone is a strong oxidizer that is widely used inwater and food purification and commercial and industrial airpurification. First, we need to understand that ozone is allaround us in nature. Listed are some typical ozone levels.Typical Ozone Levels in PPM.003 - .015 Ozone Odor Detecting Range.005 - .01 Heavy Forest Country Air.02 - .05 Outdoor Air after Lightning.003 - .08 UV Light bulb (stick lights)
