Germ Guardian products keep families healthy

Children on average get six to 10 colds a year and mothers between the ages of 20 and 30 have more colds than men because of the exposure they receive from their children**. With lots of sneezing, coughing and the dreaded flu lurking, are your customers doing everything they can to keep their families healthy? Germ Guardian™ is launching an entire product line focused on killing airborne germs safely and naturally.

Germ Guardian UV-C Room Air Sanitizer
The Germ Guardian™ UV-C room air sanitizer is a safe and natural way to help eliminate potentially harmful airborne germs from homes. It is proven effective against 99.9 percent of targeted airborne flu viruses and other germs*. It harnesses the power of naturally occurring UV-C light technology, the same technology used in hospitals, making it a safe way to kill germs without the use of chemicals.

Here’s how it works: a whisper-quiet fan pulls air through a specially constructed germ-killing chamber. As air is pulled into the chamber, the UV-C (ultraviolet-C) light penetrates through the germ, altering its genetic structure, rendering it sterile and the germ dies. Sanitized air is circulated back into the room. With the ability to process 700 cubic feet of germ-laden air per hour, the powerful Germ Guardian UV-C room air sanitizer is effective in almost any size room. It weighs less than five pounds and stands 17 inches tall. The unit is safe for use around children and pets and is cool to the touch. In addition, a replaceable UV-C light bulb is guaranteed to last 9000 hours.

Plug-In UV-C Air Sanitizer
The Germ Guardian Plug-In UV-C air sanitizer is a miniature version of the larger room sanitizer. It uses the same ultraviolet- C (UV-C) light technology to kill 99 percent of airborne germs, and the small, inconspicuous unit is designed to fit into any standard electrical outlet in the home. Plug the product directly into an outlet, and it will circulate 450 cubic feet of air an hour destroying 99 percent of germs and odors simultaneously.

Personal Air Purifier
Your customers can now breathe fresh air wherever they go with the Germ Guardian™ Personal Air Purifier. It’s lightweight and portable. Wearing it around the neck and creates a better breathing environment as it forces away allergens and pollutants by emitting healthy negative ions. It’s a great product to take on airplanes, trains, elevators, subways and the office. It has a rechargeable battery that stays charged up to 60 hours.

Hygia 6.0 Complete Air Cleansing System
The Germ Guardian™ Hygia™ 6.0 - Complete Air Cleansing System™ helps create a healthier indoor environment. The Hygia™ 6.0 offers six stages of air filtration, the most of any product on the market, that helps create a healthier breathing environment by purifying the air in the home and destroying germs and odors. A dust sensor analyzes the air quality in the home by detecting dust, smoke, pollens and small particles and automatically adjusts to the cleaning needs of the home. The Hygia 6.0 processes 500 cubic feet of air an hour.

Hygia 4.0 Table Top Air Purifier
The Hygia 4.0 table top air purifier is a smaller version of the Hygia 6.0 complete air cleansing system. It is the perfect air purifier for the home or office. Small and compact, it’s great to have on a desk or nightstand to help create a healthier indoor environment.

Ultrasonic Humidifiers/Vaporizers
Another great product for the home and nursery is the Germ Guardian™ Ultrasonic Humidifier. The Ultrasonic Humidifier uses nano-silver technology to prevent microbial growth within the unit to provide a healthier breathing environment. It senses the humidity in the environment and automatically adjusts to a pre-set level. The Germ Guardian humidifier has an option for warm or cold humidification and an adjustable spray function to help regulate the volume of spray desired. And since the humidifier is ultrasonic during operation it’s virtually silent.

Nursery Sanitizer
