By improving air quality, schools are better able to keep kids learning in the classroom. By reducing the risk for illness, absenteeism will diminish, having a positive impact on academic performance. Further, additional ventilation in the classroom led to a direct increase of 11 points on math tests as well as an increase in word recognition by 15 percent. (Park, 2016/Bako ‘Biro’ et al, 2011.) Researchers also observed a 5 percent decrement in the “power of attention” in poorly ventilated classrooms.

The WellAir Protect 900W with NanoStrike™ Technology eliminates germs commonly found in school buildings including influenza, norovirus, cold viruses, strep, SARS-CoV-2 and more. In addition, the system eliminates dust, soot, pollen and other contaminants known to exacerbate asthma and allergies, which is a significant issue for many school-aged children.

Developed by a team of scientists and engineers over a decade ago, NanoStrike™ utilizes multiple concurrent processes that rapidly kill and deactivate harmful airborne microorganisms. NanoStrike™ destroys the DNA and protein that make up nanosized viruses, bacteria and fungi. This stops viruses from spreading and bacterial and fungal spores from reproducing.

The unit is slim and lightweight at only 10 pounds and can be easily mounted on a wall. It’s portable, requiring no installation costs. NanoStrike™ uses a small amount of energy, less than a standard household lightbulb, and requires no maintenance. While it comes with a seven-year warranty, its effectiveness does not degrade over time. It also is extremely quiet and will not disrupt the learning environment. 

One NanoStrike™ unit will easily cover 1,300 square feet, circulating the air in its entirety every 45 minutes. Large spaces such as cafeterias and libraries will require additional units depending on the overall square footage.

Student athletic facilities are often a breeding ground for MRSA and other staph infections and are often plagued with lingering odors. The NanoStrike™ units eradicate these foul smells by killing harmful microorganisms in addition to ensuring extracurricular activities are able to continue while keeping student athletes and spectators safe.

Filters help, but they do not do enough to protect the wellbeing of our young people. MERV filters and other HVAC filters only trap micro-organisms such as allergens. The pathogens are still alive and harmful to humans. They do not destroy hazardous air particles. NanoStrike™ is the perfect complement to HVAC filters.

While there are several technologies that capture pathogens, such as allergens, on the market, there are very few that actually eliminate harmful micro-organisms. NanoStrike™ does not emit anything into the air like other products. Rather, it kills airborne pathogens and is trusted by world-renowned medical institutions including the Cleveland Clinic that uses NanoStrike™ in their surgical pathology labs.

While the pandemic may wane, the need for better air quality in our schools remains. The NanoStrike™ system defends against highly dangerous mold spores along with other germs commonly found in school buildings including influenza, norovirus, cold viruses, strep and more. More than 60 clinical and lab studies show NanoStrike™ reduces certain viruses and pathogens up to 99.99 percent after 45 minutes.

The unit is slim, lightweight and can be easily mounted on a wall with just two screws. It’s portable, requiring no installation costs. Click here to download the NanoStrike™ instruction manual.
