The Secret Of Negative Ions
And How They Cleanse The Air

Virtually all airborne nasties (dust, allergens, mites, and other contaminants) carry a positive charge. Ionizers attack these positively charged ions using the principle of opposites attract. When a high enough concentration of negative ions can be inserted into the surrounding air, the positively charged floating particles will fuse with the negatively charged ions and fall harmlessly to the ground, just waiting to be removed through normal cleaning activities.

In nature, negative ions are generated by processes such as sunlight, lightening, waves from the ocean, and from waterfalls. "Concrete Jungles" minimize the natural production of negative ions by disrupting the delicate electrical balance between the atmosphere and the earth. An effective ionic air cleaner should create negative ions in such quantities, the concentration could rival that found at Niagara Falls, the highest natural producer of negative ions and one of the healthiest environments in the world.
