Plant Air Purification (PAP) A Breath of Fresh Air 1

NYSERDA’S Energy Upgrade Program For Not-For-Profits & Small Business • • • • NYSERDA & Various Co-operating Lending Institutions Will Provide Up to $100,000 For Energy Upgrades to a Building. The Energy Savings Along Will Be Able To Pay Off The Cost Of Installation Over A 10 Year Period.

Organizations Will Enjoy A Positive Monthly Carry.

& Under The Program A Free Energy Audit Will Be Conducted To Tell You What Type of Energy Upgrades Are Available.

2

Available Upgrades Can Include

• • • • • Plant Air Purification, High Efficiency Lighting, Insulation, HVAC, Etc.

3

• If Plant Air Purification and High Efficiency Lighting Are Included In The Package The Customer is Guaranteed That Energy Savings Will At Least = The Cost of the Loan Plus Interest, With A Reserve Fund Set Aside To Further Back That Guarantee, Or An Insurance Company Will Provide Energy Saving Insurance.

4

• • For Those Not Familiar With Plant Air Purification, It is a Method of Purifying Indoor Air That Was Invented by NASA.

That Uses Both Living Plants & Friendly Microbes, Found Near Their Root System, To Actually Digest Contaminants in The Air. 5

• But More Than That It Enhances The Cleansing Power of Plants By More Than A Hundred Fold.

6

• • Which It Does By Growing Certain Common Houseplants In Porous Artificial Soil And Putting An Induction Fan Below The Filter.

7

NASA’S ORIGINAL PLANT AIR PURIFIER 8

• • Whereupon A Hundred Times More Polluted Air Is Drawn Down To Where The Friendly Microbes Near The Roots of The Plants Reside Which Digest All Airborne Contaminants.

9

• • No Matter What Type Of Airborne Contaminant There May Be Plant Air Purifiers Remove Them. Whether They Are: – Particulate Matter, – Odors, – Germs, Viruses, Pollen, Or Dust, – Radon, – And Even Cancer Causing Chemicals Like Formaldehyde, Which Has Been Shown To Exist At Unsafe Levels In Almost Every Building In America.

10

• • • • With Almost 41% Of The American Population Coming Down With At Least One Form Of Invasive Cancer In Their Lifetime, With Health Care Costs Skyrocketing, & With Health Insurance Running At Almost $5,400 Per Person Per Year, Plant Air Purifiers Protect The Health Of Those Who Breathe In Its Revitalized Air And Reduce Health Care Costs.

11

• • • • • And Because Plant Air Purifiers Reduce Indoor Air Pollution, Ventilation Levels Within A Building Can Be Reduced By 80% Thus Eliminating The Need To Heat Or Cool Vast Quantities Of Replacement Air.

This Saves Building Owners As Much As 26% A Year On Heating.

& 10-15% On Heating & Cooling Combined.

12

• In Addition, Plant Air Purifiers Can Provide Almost Immediate Relief To Asthma And Allergy Sufferers Since They Remove The Triggers Which Bring On Asthma And Allergy Attacks Which Plague Almost 20% Of Americans. 13

• • • Plant Air Purifiers Also Make For A More Comfortable Environment And Eliminate Dry Air In Buildings During The Winter Season, Limit Contagion Of Colds And Flu, And Cut Down On The Number Of Sick Days Employees Or Occupants Of A Building Suffer.

14

• • • • • • • PLUS THEY PROVIDE: Added Beauty to the Surroundings Increase Worker and Student Productivity, Lower Our Carbon Footprint & Make Us Less Reliant On Fossil Fuel, Foster Green Technology And Make For Green Jobs Within The State; Are Excellent For Public Relations & Lower Vacancy Rates In A Building.

15

They Are What Going Green Is All About

16

They Can Be Hooked Into The Ventilation System

17

Or Can Be Free Standing

18

They Can Hang From The Ceiling

19

Or Can Be Placed Against A Wall

20

They Can Be Hung From Balconies

21

Or Installed In Uninhabited Space, As In a Basement

22

Or Can Even Be Contained In A Mobile Unit Which Can Simply Be Driven Up To & Hooked Into A Building’s Air Supply,

VIA A MOBILE UNIT

23

Or Contained In A Shed Attached To The Building Itself.

24

They Require Little Maintenance Since They Have Their Own Irrigation System 25

• & Require No Filter Replacements Since Friendly Microbes Within The Filter Bed Actually Bio-Regenerate The Filter So That It Can Last Forever.

26

Plant Air Purifiers Also Employ A Wet Scrubber Which Washes Contaminants From The Air Like A Gentle Rain 27

• And Because Of The Friendly Microbes In The Filter Bed, Which Actually Digest Mold Spores, Higher Levels Of Relative Humidity Can Be Enjoyed In Winter Unlike Other Buildings Which Often Have Indoor Air That Is Drier Than The Sahara Desert.

28

• • • Use NYSERDA’S Programs As A Means Not Only To Enjoy Energy Savings, But Health Savings As Well for These Can Put Far More Dollars Into Your Pocket.

And Can Increase The Value Of Your Property As Well. Plus Lead To Higher Rents. 29

• • Plant Air Purifiers Provide Hotels And Resorts With A Dream Come True.

For People Pay More For A Room That Is Allergy Free.

30

• And If You Have Any Doubt About Its Effectiveness, Here Is a Letter From An Allergy Doctor When He Utilized a Portable Plant Air Purifier, Which Is Not Nearly As Effective As a Unit That Can Take Care Of An Entire Building.

31

32

• • • • • As For Indoor Waterparks, Or Places With An Indoor Swimming Pool, Plant Air Purifiers are Also Ideal, As They Can Eliminate Chloramines Which Are Produced When Body Oils Or Urine Mix With Chlorine In The Water. As A Result Chloramines Hover Just Above The Surface Of The Pool, Which People Then Breathe In & Which Causes Eye Irritation.

So Creating A Health Risk And Leading To Asthma For Those Nearby.

33

• • • • • • Why Not Obtain This Miracle Device For Your Building With No Money Down, Where Energy Savings Alone Pay For It?

Help Your Country Help Your Organization And Help Yourself.

This Is One of Those Times When Doing The Right Thing Brings Benefits To All.

34

Advantages of the PAP System

Finding from the EPA/NYSERDA funded study • • • • • • Removes and destroys all types of pollutants No replacement parts and fully automated operation High single pass efficiency (30-70%) for removal of common and harmful volatile organic chemicals (VOC) Each average-sized house plant in a PAP pot can service 500 sq. ft. of living space. Reduced ventilation can provide 80% energy saving for heating and cooling of outside air Decorative as a live house plant 35

37

Wet Scrubbers Gases, Particulate Matter, Biologicals Give Rise to Humidity and Mold Plants and Root Microbes Biologicals, Radiation, Particulate Matter, Gases and Dust Take Up too Much Space
