It only makes sense!

• Safe germicidal protection destroys micro and macro organisms in your environment such as: spores, molds, mildews, fungi, gases, bacteria, viruses, etc., including SARS, Anthrax and E.coli.
• Relieves allergy symptoms inside your home by efficient reduction of airborne irritants, bacteria, and allergens.
• Quickly neutralizes odors from: pets, cooking, smoking, carpets, new furniture, paint, chemical cleaners, household appliances, etc.
• Proven technology! UV sterilization has been used since the 1930's in hospitals, laboratories, and other areas where airborne or surface contamination is of concern. The Second Wind™ PCO technology is specifically designed to enhance and maximize this sterilization process. It has been proven highly effective by university studies and research groups. Now it is available for your home.
• Saves Money! Compared to most HEPA filter machines, which require expensive replacement filters, this could save you hundreds of dollars per year.
• Saves Energy! Uses only two 40 watt bulbs - a big energy saver when compared to motor and fan-driven HEPA filter machines.
• Low Cost! One-room air purifiers may make a difference -- but just in that room. The truth is, you live in more than one room and buying several room air purifiers is expensive. Whole-house air purification is almost always the most cost-effective solution. And because this air purification system uses no motors, fans, filters, etc., this technology is relatively inexpensive compared to others.
• No Filters to Replace! Simple wipe the bulbs clean with a cotton ball and some alcohol once every few months. No need to shop for expensive filters, keep filters on hand, or spend time replacing them.
• Completely Silent! There are no fans, no motors, no moving parts to create noise in your home. All the air in your home is cleaned as it passes through your existing heating and A/C ductwork. Now you can enjoy clean air while you sleep, watch TV, listen to your stereo, or whatever you normally do in your home, without being disturbed by any added noise.
• Cleans More Air More of the Time! If you have allergies, chances are you have (or need) more than one individual room air purifier in your house now. They all make noise. And if you're like most people, you end up turning them off whenever you can, just to have some more peace and quiet. The Second Wind™ Model 2000 is completely silent and out of sight, so you can leave it doing its job of cleaning your air more of the time.
• Uses None of Your Living Space -- Always Out of Sight! If you have (or need) more than one individual room air purifier in your house, think of how much room they take up (and how much more you pay!). They all need floor space or counter space and can be seen and heard. The Second Wind™ Model 2000 uses none of your living space whatsoever. It is completely quiet and out of sight.
• Highly Reliable! Since there are no moving parts (no fans or motors of any kind), there is virtually no wear-down or breakage of any kind. The lamps are guranteed for one-full year and often last many years before ever needing replacment.

How it Works Bio-aerosols comprise of microscopic live particulate such as spores, pollen, bacteria and viruses. Bio-aerosols present the greatest threat to our health. They are often airborne living for days at a time. They also may exist in fluids or on solid surfaces, even our own skin. You will never totally eliminate your exposure, but incorporating a Second Wind Photo-Catalytic Air Purification System into your home or place of work will create one dependable line of defense against indoor airborne contact. Properly designed UV system installations have proven highly effective in hospitals, schools, etc. Second Wind ultraviolet germicidal lamps are 253.7 nm of light, optimal for air and surface disinfection.

Second Wind uses a metal catalyst of Titanium to create the PCO process. Titanium naturally has a very thin later of of oxidized film on it called Titanium oxide (TiO2). The TiO2 film has a high refraction ratio and when it is irradiated with UV light, less than 385 nm, the band gap energy (the level of energy photons needed to be able to free electrons from their atomic bonds is exceeded. What is created are electron /hole pairs, hydroxyl radicals (OH), thus attracting molecules (such as volatile organic compounds VOC's or bioaerosols) to the catalyst (Titanium).

The volatile organic compounds are oxidized by a reaction that takes place during this process due to the fact that the OH radicals need to attach themselves to something, and the contaminate is absorbed at the catalyst surface. PCO will also kill and decompose any of the absorbed bioaerosols.

“One effective method to destroy dilute concentrations of organic and chlorinated organic pollutants in air is heterogeneous photocatalytic oxidation (PCO), which uses a semiconductor catalyst such as TiO2 and near-UV radiation to decompose contaminates...” “The large number and variety of chemicals successfully treated by PCO indicates potentially broad range of application.” John L. Falconer, Ph.D. Professor of Chemical Engineering University of Colorado • Ph.D. (Chemical Engineering), Stanford University (1974) • B.E.S. (Chemical Engineering), The Johns Hopkins University (1967)
“... Potential applications for using titania-based materials as photocatalysts include...Destroying volatile organic compounds (trchloroethylene, benzene, formaldehyde, etc.). Reducing air pollution in homes and industries such as dry-cleaners, painting booths, and printers..” Marc A. Anderson Professor Water Chemistry Program and Materials Science University of Wisconsin, Madison

The ProofElectronic air cleaners work by charging the large dust particles passing through them with an electronic charge, either positive or negative. The particles are than collected on oppositely charged metal plates. With PCO, after the VOC's and bioaerosols are attracted to the titanium, they are come into contact with the OH radicals which change the contaminants molecular structure. PCO will kill and decompose absorbed bioaerosols, as well as toxic VOC's and the odors they produce. Now that PCO technology can be integrated into new and existing heating, air conditioning, and ventilating systems everyone (even the most chemically sensitive) have an effect process for removing and destroying low-level indoor air pollutants including mold, bacteria, viruses, and fungi.
A Second Wind Air Purifier programmed to run for three separate one hour periods within 24 hours was then placed in the room.  The dish on the left shows the dramatic results.  Over the 72 Hours of the experiment, 100% of the contaminates were eliminated.
Those are just a few examples of the vast research that has been and is being done on PCO technology, including Second Wind's own testing recently completed at the IAQ labs of the University at Waterloo on our own photocatalytic air purifiers. Please view the dramatic results of our testing below.

Current Indoor Air Quality Problems
Sick Building Syndrome (SBS)    Building Related Illness(BRI)     Multiple Chemical Sensitivity (MCS)SBS is a catch-all term that refers to a series of complaints for which there is no obvious cause and where medical tests reveal no particular abnormalities. The symptoms display when individuals are in the building but disappear when they leave. Complaints may include irritation of the eyes, nose and throat; headache; stuffy nose; lethargy, and skin irritation. Without a quick resolution increased absenteeism, reduced work efficiency, and deteriorating employee morale are likely outcomes of SBS.

BRI refers to a defined illness with a known causative agent resulting from exposure to building air. While the causative agent can be chemical (e.g. formaldehyde), it is often biological. Typical sources of biological contaminants are humidification systems, cooling towers, drain pans and filters, or water damaged material. Symptoms may be specific or mimic symptoms associated with the flu. Serious lung and respiratory conditions can occur.

MCS is a person that has sensitivity to particular agents at levels that do not have an observable affect on the general population. Persons having MCS apparently have difficulty being in most buildings. Building managers may encounter occupants who have been diagnosed with MCS. As pollutants inside travel through the building from areas of high pressure to areas of lower pressure. Some of these pathways are planned and deliberate, for example building ventilation systems (HVAC Systems). Just as an HVAC system can introduce a contaminate to an occupied space, it can also remove it. The factors most important to understanding indoor pollution are a) indoor sources of pollution, b) outdoor sources of pollution, c) ventilation parameters, airflow patterns and pressure relationships, e) air filtration systems, f) Ultraviolet Germicidal Irradiation Systems, and g) Gas Phase (VOC) Removal Systems. Second wind industrial air purifiers have years of experience with Ultraviolet Germicidal Irradiation and Gas Phase Removal Systems manufacturing. Second wind systems offer the highest intensity ultraviolet.

Does it seem like your asthma or allergies, or a family members asthma or allergies are worsening?

If so, it may not be your imagination. 
It is no coincidence that asthma cases have increased by more than 100% over the past 20 years. Or that death rates have tripled since 1976. Or that the number one reason for emergency room visits in Canada last year was for asthma.
The fact is, worsening asthma cases have coincided with the emergence of the indoor air quality epidemic. As the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) warns us, indoor air quality has become the nation's number one environmental health problem. It may be a more serious health problem than outdoor air pollution!

How do we know that indoor air is the culprit?

New research proves that ultraviolet light can provide relief! More...

Patented Photo-Catalytic Oxidation Technology

In order to fully understand PCO, we must first learn a little about the metal catalyst involved....

Electronic air cleaners work by charging the large dust particles passing through them with an electronic charge, either positive or negative. The particles are than collected on oppositely charged metal plates. With PCO, after the VOC's and bioaerosols are attracted to the titanium, they are come into contact with the OH radicals which change the contaminants molecular structure. PCO will kill and decompose absorbed bioaerosols, as well as toxic VOC's and the odors they produce.

Now that PCO technology can be integrated into new and existing heating, air conditioning, and ventilating systems everyone (even the most chemically sensitive) have an effect process for removing and destroying low-level indoor air pollutants including mold, bacteria, viruses, and fungi.

There have been numerous scientific studies, research and applications using PCO technology. More...

The Process

There are different technologies used by Second Wind Air Purifier Systems. All of our Second Wind Air Purification Systems use Ultra-violet germicidal light. More...

The Proof

The EPA tells us that the air inside your home can be up to 40 to 70 times more polluted than the outdoor environment.  To test the effectiveness of the Second Wind Air Purifier in eliminating airborne contaminates in an enclosed environment, petri dishes were placed in a portable classroom and left uncovered to accumulate any airborne contaminates, was removed.  Our Products
