Winix 5-stage air cleaning system includes a washable and anti-bacterial pre-filter, True HEPA filter with 99.99% efficiency, Nano-Silver mesh, washable carbon filter and the PlasmaWave™ Technology.

Winix PlasmaWave™ creates Hydroxyls which attack dangerous airborne pollutants such as viruses, bacteria and chemical vapors (VOCs), as well as common household odors caused by pets, tobacco smoke and cooking.

PlasmaWave™

Basic Technology: As it exits the air-cleaning unit, filtered air passes through a corona discharge (a type of electric pulse). This process creates BOTH negative and positive ions - which is air in a plasma state.

In Phase Two, the plasma combines with naturally occurring water vapor to form Hydroxyl Radicals (OH, unstable molecules stripped of hydrogen and oxygen atoms).

Hydroxyls attack airborne pollutants that include viruses, bacteria, germs, odors, and chemical gases (VOCs).

The Pollutants are destroyed in the process while the Hydroxyls reform into water vapor (H2O) or other harmless air molecules.

PlasmaWave™ produces NO OZONE or other harmful by-products as it emulates the way nature cleans the air.
  
Five-Stage Cleaning

Step 1 : Washable Anti-Bacterial Pre-Filter
This reusable filter collects large airborne particles such as pollen, dust, pet hair and lint, etc.

Step 2 : True HEPA Filter
Captures 99.99% of particles and impurities as small as .3 microns including smoke, dust, pollen, mold spores, and pet dander.

Step 3 : Nano-Silver Mesh
A shield of silver particles one billionth of a meter in size neutralizes bacteria on contact. (What is nano-silver? Throughout history, silver has been recognized as one of the most efficient germicides known. While an antibiotic can kill as many as a half-dozen different kinds of disease organisms, silver is known to kill some 650 species of bacteria or viruses simply by coming into contact with them. Particle size has been the only limiting factor to silver's effectiveness. Now through nano-technology, a rapidly growing science of producing and utilizing particles that measure in nanometers (1 billionth of a meter), silver can be used efficiently as an antimicrobial in medicines, filters, clothing and personal hygiene products.)

Step 4 : Washable Carbon Filter
Activated granular carbon effectively collects chemical vapors and odors caused by cigarette smoke, organic decay and cooking.

Step 5 : PlasmaWave Technology
In the final stages of cleaning, PlasmaWave generates negatively and positively charged ions that combine with airborne water vapor to form Hydroxyls. Hydroxyls instantly neutralize viruses and bacteria, chemical vapors, odors and gasses in the air.
