International. Lennox announced that its PureAir and PureAir ™ ™ S air purification systems with the Lennox Healthy Climate ™ Carbon Clean 16® air filter remove more than 99% of the virus that causes Covid-19 from the air.
The company explained that after months of rigorous testing in a highly reputable independent laboratory, this announcement is further proof of Lennox's tireless commitment to delivering unmatched purification throughout the home for perfect air.
Lennox residential filtration systems are hospital-grade filtration systems that remove more than 99% of virus particles, including the common cold, influenza, and viruses 4 times smaller than SARS-CoV-2. It is even more efficient (99.9% to be precise) at removing larger particles, such as mold spores, pollen, dust and pet dander. Unlike other air purification systems, the PureAir and PureAir ™ ™ S systems do not produce ozone, a common lung irritant. Better yet, they actively work to reduce ozone generated by other sources in their home.
"This year, more than ever, we all recognize the critical importance of perfect air and how it is vital to our health," said Quan Nguyen, vice president and general manager of Lennox Industries Residential. "At Lennox we have long sought the highest level of indoor air quality on behalf of our customers. During this pandemic, we have invested resources to deliver on our promise of perfect air so consumers can breathe easy."
The Lennox Healthy Climate ™ Carbon Clean 16® air filter was tested at LMS Technologies, Inc., an independent filtration research and testing laboratory that has been used by Lennox for more than two decades. The laboratory performs controlled and unbiased testing with standardized testing procedures to ensure statistically verified results.
When combined with the PureAir ™ S air purification system, the Lennox Healthy Climate ™ Carbon Clean 16® air filter provides unmatched filtration and the highest level of indoor air quality to ensure the health and safety of homeowners and their families. As part of Lennox's Ultimate Comfort System ™, PureAir ™ S delivers impeccable accuracy in air quality and works intelligently with other units in the Ultimate Comfort System ™ to stay finely tuned with the home for reliable clean air.
