Honeywell HEPA air purifiers improves air quality

HESE days, when we open the windows, instead of letting ill fresh air we let in air contaminants. People are unaware that microscopic particles in the air like dust, germs, mould spores and pet dander will remain in our homes for a long time due to poor ventilation and become a serious threat to our health especially to young cbildmn.

Moisture in humid climates can lead to the development of various dangerous bacteria, viruses and mould spores. Also, smokers puff out 4,000 different toxins into the air with- out realising its side effects. Even household chemical cleaning products can contaminate the air we breathe. These harmful airborne contaminants do not discriminate and can cause - in the short term headaches, irri- tated eyes and sore throats. In the long term, they could aggravate the sinus, cause other health conditions such as asthma, skin aller- gies and lung infections.

lndc~or air purifiers can make a dramatic improvement to the quality of air in your home, but not all air purifiers are equal in quality. Honeywell high efficiency particulate air (HEPA) air purifiers are the best choice for reducing these unwanted guests in our homes. In fact, more doctors recommend Honeywell air purifiers to their patients than any other brand.* Honeywell is an established manufacturer of aerospace, military trans- portation and jet engines. Jet engines and air purifiers seem worlds apart, but they both utflise the same superior turbo technology that has become Honeywell International's area of expertise. The same turbo technology that wins wars is also used to battle airborne contaminants; and it gives Honeywell A/ir Purifiers the edge over other air purifiers. That advantage is suction and air flow cleam ing power.

Naturally, the mom powerful the airflow, the better the chance of cleaning the air. Honeywell Cyclonic Turbo Air Purifiers use a swirling cyclone-like effect and powerful turbo technology to pull in more dirty air every time. This highly efficient technology draws in air from every corner of the room and even from floor to ceiling. Once the air is pulled in, contaminants are trapped within Honeywefl's 360 heavily pleated round HEPA filter.

For extra trapping capabilities, Honeywell designs round HEPA filters with double the materials of a standard HEPA filters. Unlike standard flat panel air filters, air that circu- lates through Honeywell 360 degrees HEPA filters are subjected to multiple capturing opportunities.

In short, its reduces particle count in your home faster and more effectively. Honeywell air purifiers are medically graded and have been recommended by the American Lung Association and various medical publications in the United States. With its performance first concept, it is the best selling air purifier and most recommended by doctors* in the United States till today. Its performance val- ues are not just on paper, but trusted by over five million buildings including hospitals and 100 millions homes worldwide. As humans, we cannot control the air quality outside but we can improve the quality of air we breathe indoors. Honeywell should be a pact of your home or office. Visit Honeywell at Homedec from October 27 to 30 at Booth 1003, 1004, 1005 and 1006 Hall I at Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre for exclusive promotions. ~ For details, contact them at 1300 889 898 or visit wwc2. mormarks, com. *AQS physicians survey, November 2005

Fuss-free pool - Hydro one fiberglass swimming pool

Want a swimming pool that is leak- age- and hassle-free, lasts for life and does not require structural repair? That you can with the Hydro One Fiberglass Swimming Pool that is prefabricated in a one-piece structure.

Fiberglass swimming pools are not new. They have been widely produced since the 1950s and are preferred in Europe and Australia. The concept of fiberglass pools came from the revolution of the fiberglass boat industry.

High quality fibreglass pools, boats and yachts share a common manufacturing technique, using the same fibreglass material. Over the past decades, specialised materials have been formulated for permanent under- water use in boats and swimming pools, allowing pool owners to be free from the bur- den of resurfacing or relining pool surfaces.

Hydro One Fiberglass Swimming Pools are put through a series of stringent and state-of-the-art fabrication process. Using a one-piece mould, waterproof high grade gel coat (imported from Australia) is used in the production.

The pool structure undergoes three layers of polishing and anti-scratch treatments to produce a smooth, glossy and glittering surface.

Hydro One Fiberglass Swimming P0ol can be installed on site and be ready to operate within five to seven days. The scope of work includes excavation, soil compacting, delivery, cranage, unloading, positioning and pool deck casting.

The Hydro One Fiberglass Swimming Pool is better than conventional pools because there is minimum human error in construction and fast installation lead time. It is a leak- age-free structure which is easy to maintain.

Algae tends to grow within the gaps of the tiles in a concrete pool. Scrubbing using an algae brush is required and even acid is used to dean the pool surface. Fibreglass swimming pools are devoid of any such maintenance hassles because of its one-piece surface. In fact, the structure comes with a 10-year-warranty against leakage.

Hydro One Fiberglass Swimming Pool is also equipped with an LED Underwater Light and an aluminum-made Pump House that contains Sand Filters, Pool Pump and Control Panel with remote control.

Fol' further recreation, the pool also comes with Jacuzzi spa seats (for model Maldives and Caribbean) built-in in the pool.

You can also choose to upgrade your pool with the cross
Hydro One Fiberglass Swimming Pool is now available in six models with different design and sizes. The models are:

~ Redang - 8 (W) x 13 (L) x 4ft (D)

~ Phuket - 10 x 20 x 4ft
~ Ibiza - 10 x 26 x 4ft
~ Maldives -13 x 26 x 4ft
~ Carribean -13 x 38 x 4ft

Beautiful ponds - Biosys and Proficlear filter systems

OASE Filter systems will help you build a habitat for fish, amphibians, and other wildlife at home. These features not just beautify your home, it also provides you a great place to unwind.

Garden ponds are biologically-active habitats for flora and fauna. They are subject to constant change due to weather changes and environmental conditions. However, garden ponds are limited in theft capability to regulate their biological balance on their own. OASE filter systems play a significant role in this regard.

OASE ofters flow-through and pressure filter systems that can be installed quickly and easily. Both work perfectly to mechanically filter suspended substances and decompose biological nutrients. Microorganisms that settle in the filter systems take over these important tasks to ensure good water quality.

The benefits of OASE filter systems are evident at first glance - the water is clean and clear. Green algae do not have a chance and flora and fauna thrive splendidly.

Koi pond
However there is one important prerequisite - the performance of the fitter system must be matched to pond size and fish stock.

Glomedic Industries Sdn Bhd, the exclusive importer of OASE water garden products for Malaysia and Singapore is your pond specialist.

With the company's years of experience and in-depth product knowledge~ you will be better served with specific information and can be sure that you're making the right choice for your filter system.

OASE Filter pump, UVC clarified and the filter itself comprise a flow-through or pressure filter system as a unit. You will be recommended optimal combinations based on pond size and fish stock, and you also get a clear water guarantee.

When selecting your filter system, choose a strong system that is perfectly matched.

OASE has first class systems that can ensure clear, healthy water for your fishes every day. In this regard it doesn't matter what size your pond is, or whether you have goldfish or koi - OASE filter systems satisfy all requirements.

They even displace heavily polluted pond water easily, transforming it into sustainably clear ponds with perfect water quality. Here the pond water is thoroughly filtered and excess nutrients are broken down biologically.

Let your filter system run continuously. Do not switch it off even for short_ periods. Microorganisms that live by removing nutrients from the pond water require a constant flow of water. You should biologically activate your filter system with OASE starter bacteria at initial start-up. Pond enthusiasts who implement a new generation Aquamax pump to feed a filter system can also operate an in-pond skimmer via the second inlet connection to keep the water surface clean.

Give your pond an extra fresh experience and install one of OASE's Aqua-Oxy pond aerators, Bubbling oxygen gives the inhabit- ants of the underwater world oxygen. With a 12-volt power supply, it is safe, convenient to handle and provides individual control.

Saving lives- Nano Coating technology

  Exaltech's appointment this year as the sole agent to distribute Omniyo's products (World's Most Advanced Nano Technology) is proof of its excellent management and marketing capabilities in taking on  an international brand.
 
  Good health is commonly associated with  sleeping well, eating a well-balanced diet,  exercising regularly and being in a state of  mental and emotional well-being. But our  health also depends on whether we are  exposed to virus, bacteria, mould and other  elements.

 Harmful volatile organic compounds  (VOC) from building materials cause inhabitants to fall sick. In fact, the World Health  Ol-ganization estimates that more than two  million people die each year due to breathing in of tiny particles present in polluted  indoor and outdoor air. The United States
 Environmental Protection Agency (Usepa)  has found high concentrations of VOC indoor  air which is 2-5 times higher compared with  outdoor air.



 Now, with the Omniyo Nano 223, one  can breathe in cleaner air. Omniyo's breakthrough nano coating technology comprises  pure, Ultra small, nann particles of Titanium  dioxide that are colourless and transparent. It  is specially designed as a spray-on coating to  transform a normal surface into a self-sanitising surface.

 The ultra-safe coating requires only visible light as its source of energy to continuously keep coated surfaces clean and safe by  destroying viruses, bacteria, mould and VOC  that come into contact with it  an electrochemical process.

  Omniyo's advanced nano technology  ensures that the coating bonds virtually permanently to surfaces regardless of whether  soft or hard, smooth or rough surfaces.

 The Omniyo Nano 223 is lab-tested by  renowned Japanese universities, international  test labs and field-tested in many hospitals  and commercial buildings with excellent  results.

 Most importantly, the Nano 223 is safe and made with food-grade ingredients of pure TiO2 without the use of any binders and polymers. TiO2 is approved by the Food and Drug Administration. It has been widely used for more than 30 years and is exempted from certification.

  The Nano 223 is effective and recommended for use on floorings, wall coverings, furniture and fittings in:
  ~ Healthcare environments, hospitals, clinics and beauty centres
  ~ Institutions, schools, child care centres and offices
  ~ Public transportation systems
  ~ Hotels, airports and buildings
  ~ Places of worship
  ~ Houses, kitchen cabinets, all bed rooms and living areas
  ~ Research e]wimnment
  ~ Food-related factories and facilities   For all types of materials such as:
  ~ Metals, aluminium and stainless steel
  ~ Plastic and composites
  ~ Glass or ceramics
  ~ Paints and lacquer
  ~ Textile and leather
  ~ Wood and composite
  ~ Concrete, marble, granite and composite

  The Nano 223 is best applied on new products and surfaces to prevent Biofilm* buildups that may harbour disease-causing bacteria. For used or in-used products, thorough cleaning and repeat application of the Nano 223 is recommended to ensure direct bonding to substrate to avoid any superficial bonding to dirt or dust.

  The Omniyo Nan~ 223 is perfect for use on:
  ~ Desks, chairs, sofa, doors, cabinets, sanitaryware, light fittings
  ~ Equipment, toys, playhouse, car interior, air-conditioners and fans
  ~ Uniforms, curtains, bags

  Public areas where there are high contact
points such as:
  ~ Hand es, knobs, armrests and handrails
  ~ Keyboards, keypads, lift buttons and mobiIe phones
  ~ Seats

  Visit Exaltech's booth at Homedec and be amazed at how easy it is to transform every product/surface into one that helps fight virus, bacteria, mould and VOC gases with a simple coating of the Nano 223.

  Bring along small items such as a handbag, school bag, toy or baby stroller and Exaltech will do'a free live demonstration of coating for you, The Nan~ 223 is priced at RM159 for a 170g spray can. It is also bottled for commercial coating~se with a specially developed Electro-Sprayer. There will be a soft launch of the product at Homedec and there will be a promorional/special offer for the product.
