No need to ever change an expensive filter or spend time on cleaning complicated filter blade systems to keep your air purifier effective. LightAir IonFlow 50 fits into any environment, is easy to use in homes, offices and public areas, hospital, medical or industrial buildings.
  • Economical: No expensive filters to replace. Clean the collector in hot water and dishwashing liquid when needed. Most air-cleaning devices on the market have expensive filters that should be replaced at least twice a year. On average such filters cost approximately $200. This adds up to a yearly cost of at least $400-$500.
  • Energy efficient: LightAir IonFlow 50 runs on only 12 volts and uses less than 7 watts per hour. This is equal to only 10 percent of a normal light bulb or less than 10 percent of most conventional air cleaners. The decorative LED lights are energy saving and have a long life cycle of 75,000 hours.
  • Ozone free: LightAir IonFlow 50 ozone level is not measurable and therefore considered to be equal to zero. In a third-party test of the device, the steady state ozone concentration in the test room operated with 0.5 air exchanges per hour remained below the detection limit of the measuring instrument (0.002 ppm). For reference; The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) requires ozone output of indoor medical devices to be no more than 0.05 ppm. EPA's National Ambient Air Quality Standard for ozone is a maximum 8 hour average outdoor concentration of 0.08 ppm. According to Consumer Reports, many air purifiers on the market surpass the threshold value by emitting ozone of 0.05-0.3 ppm. Learn more at www.epa.gov.
  • Silent: Less than 5 dB. Most other air-cleaning devices on the market are fan driven and generate between 35 dB and 80 dB, some even higher. A noise level of 63 dB can be compared to the noise of a washing machine or a lawn mower. For reference; a level of 45 dB indoors is identified as preventing activity, interference and annoyance. Only below this level of noise will permit spoken conversation and other activities such as sleeping, working and recreation.
  • Compact: Small and moveable. Fits into any environment.
  • Environmentally friendly: LightAir uses recyclable materials and complies with the RoHS directive. The RoHS directive stands for "the restriction of the use of certain hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment". This directive bans placing on the EU market new electrical and electronic equipment containing higher than agreed levels, cadmium, mercury, hexavalent chromium, polybrominated biphenyl (PB), or polybrominated diphenyl ether (PBDE) flame retardants.

Documented Performance

LightAir Ion Flow 50 reaches high performance levels. LightAir uses its unique and patented technology. Instead of moving air through a filtration system, LightAir literally removes harmful particles from the air in a room, trapping them in a collector. When necessary the collector can be easily and rapidly removed and cleaned in hot water--no repeated, costly filter replacement. Traditional electrostatic and mechanical filter air purifiers quite often present performance based on the airflow at the highest air speed at an unacceptable noise level. The independent test from the Swedish National Testing and Research Institute was carried out in a closed test chamber with a regulated supply of smoke particles and showed the remarkable result of effectively eliminating practically all airborne particles (size 0.3-1.0 micron) in less than five hours.

Tests show that LightAir IonFlow 50 is extremely effective eliminating the smallest particles (nano particles below 0.1 micron) which cause the most severe health problems. The extraordinary performance of LightAir IonFlow 50 air purifier is mainly due to its ability to generate enormous volumes of electrons forming a corresponding quantity of negative ions. In fact it generates more than 250,000 ions per cubic centimeter measured at a distance of one meter. This is a level that probably no other ionizer has ever reached before without serious side effects and without generating any ozone. This large amount of negative ions balances out the overdose of positive ions in indoor air, a balance that is proven to be good for our health. Even more important is its capacity to distribute the negative charge throughout the room and collect particles which is directly related to the large production of negative ions.

How It Works

  1. Most harmful pollution generated both by indoor and outdoor sources is positively charged. The patented LightAir IonFlow technology makes our air purifier generate more than 250,000 negative ions per cm3 measured from a distance of one meter and without generating any ozone. The enormous production of ions makes it possible to effectively distribute the negative charge into all corners of a room.

  2. The negative ions attach to the positively charged, harmful particles in the air, such as from dust, pollen allergens, bacteria, mould, pet dander, viruses etc.

  3. The positively charged collector attracts the particles and leaves the air clean. The collector is proven not to lose effect over time like filter-based purifiers do. When necessary, the collector can easily be removed and cleaned in hot water.

  4. Larger clusters of particles fall to the floor before being trapped by the collector and will be removed by regular vacuum cleaning.

This did not work for me at all1
I'm returning it since I've given it a week and it has made any impact on air quality at all, in my opinion. I live in Manhattan and am on a lower floor of an apartment building. I get a lot of black residue that manages to get in even when my windows are closed -- this was always picked up by my other air cleaners. In a nutshell, it is extremely easy to see/smell/experience when an air cleaning product is working in my apartment.

Someone broke one of two air cleaners that I owned and I was getting this as a replacement. At the end of this week's run of using the LightAir IonFlow 50C, I moved my other remaining air purifier back into my room and could get results I was used to. The thing is, I need two -- one for the bedroom and one for the living room/dining room area, so I am back to searching.

Almost none of the pictures you see for this product on Amazon for this product match what it looks like; it wasn't a big deal since one of them did actually match -- the rest are pictures of another product by the same company.

Some pros: it was quite easy to set up. I had it up and going within 10 minutes -- most of that time was spent ensuring I met the placement criteria.

Cons:

again, I didn't see any effect at all.

this air cleaner has to be at least three feet from any wall, at least two feet from the ceiling and, ideally, should be even farther away from electronics (I didn't pay too much attention to this measurement since it wasn't relevant in my bedroom).

not exactly a "con," per se, more of a heads up, they mention that the electrical shock you get from touching the cleaner is extremely mild. It was really jarring for me to touch it. Not a deal-breaker, especially since I just had to unplug it to be able to touch the actual body of the appliance.

Finally somehting that helps me sleep all night5
This Air purifier have helped me with my asthma. Before I bought this one I have had others and no one has helped me as much as this one. I can now get a whole night sleep without waking up coughing. I strongly reccomend this product. I have also bought the other models for my apartment.LightAir 50 Sky IonFlow Air PurifierIonFlow 50S Air PurifierLightAir IonFlow 50F Style
