Product Description
This is the only air purifier that combines the top six technologies into one unit: true HEPA filter for dust and allergens, germicidal UV Lamp to destroy micro-organisms, activated carbon filter for chemicals, smoke, odors, ionizer for particles and bacteria, programmable sanitizer for odors, and anti-bacterial pre-filter for larger particles. Tests show that true HEPA filters (recommended by the Dept. of Homeland Security) are more effective than any other type of air filter at capturing dust, pollen, ragweed, dust mites, mold spores and other allergens. The germicidal UV light air purification, which destroys micro-organisms, is recommended by the U.S. Centers of Disease Control (CDC). Furthermore, according to Penn State Dept. of Aerobiological researchers, carbon filters serve to remove odors, volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and chemicals that other filters cannot. The Multi-Tech has multiple technologies for pollutants such as cigarette smoke and other odors, including the activated carbon filter, ionizer and programmable sanitizer. The Multi-tech seeks and destroys pollutants across the room with its negative ion air purification system. The U.S. Dept. of Agriculture found negative ion air purification (ionizers) to be 99% effective at removing airborne dust and particles. Under normal circumstances, Multi-Tech replacement costs will run just $25 to $50 per year (for replacement filters and UV lamp each year). Use of the Multi-Tech will only add a few dollars or so per month to your power bill. Its powerful fan increases air-cleaning efficiency by effectively moving the air. Even with the fan setting on high, the Multi-Tech is very quiet. The Multi-Tech air purifier has been awarded ETL safety certification and is maintenance free.

Very happy
By D. Fraser
Had my 'c' model for a bit now and I am very happy, the bedroom is definitely clearer and I am waking up much more refreshed and less congested. The unit is well built and quiet. I researched the difference between the 'c' and 'e' model and found they are identical except the 'c' has an added feature which is an ionizer booster control. The 'c' was only slightly higher in price, less than ten bucks, and I liked that feature so I chose the 'c' model. I shopped around on the internet and found the price range was large, with this price from Amazon being in the middle, I actually found the unit for 108 and it arrived in 2 days! Shop around a bit and you will save even more. Looks like Amazon has the edge on the replacement filter and UV lamp though- but they are designed to only be replaced yearly with everyday use.

Nice purifier. Priced well. Read before you listen to low scores.
By markc1960
I purchased both the C and D models. The D model supposedly has a slightly beefier fan. I had read the reviews and noted a low score review that talked about not having enough airflow to even hold a paper at the inlet. Note that this product ships with the filter in place. The filter must be removed and a piece of cardboard removed from it. If you don't do that, of course it won't pass air. I say that because I performed the "see if the suction can hold the paper" test and it did just fine.That said, any purifier review is going to be somewhat subjective unless you test it under labratory conditions. I have no idea how well this unit cleans the air except to make these factual notes:1. After a month of use (C model) in our bedroom (and we keep a clean house), I looked at the air filter and it was coated with dust. I suppose this is a good thing. I plan to vaccum the dust off to extend the filter life. But it proves it does something. Our bedroom is quite large (20x15).2. We have a finished downstairs where our chocolate lab stays (about 20x20). My wife immediately noticed that the "pet smell" was gone (using the D model). That alone was good enough for her.This purifier has hepa, carbon, UV, and ozone purification methods. I can attest to the fact that the ozone is definately distinguishable by smell when it is turned up high. It almost smells like the air around a chlorinated pool. You can set the level if you don't want so much ozone, or shut it off completely.The one test I have not tried is to see if it removes the smokey smell from our fireplace. We get a pungent smell, especially when it rains and the rain combines with the creosote in the fireplace. If it removes this odor, it will be a definite winner in my book and I'll raise the rank to 5 stars. The last test will be how itdoes during pollen season. I have allergies and one test will be to see how it does during heavy pollination,though it would need to be in a room without open windows I would think.What the specifications for this product do not tell you is how much air is circulated through this per hour. That would be important information and is available for the BlueAir purifier.I was considering the BlueAir, $800 model (with $150 filter replacements). It could be that this would be a far better choice, but at a $700 difference, the Surround Air seems to do the job...and you could buy 8 of them at the same price! With much cheaper filters.Summary: In my opinion, this is a thumbs-up for rooms up to about 400 sq feet. For bigger spaces, you might consider multiple units (?) before going for that hugely expensive purifier. It's worth a try for under $100!(last I checked it was $98 on Amazon for the C model).

Not powerfull enought - buy it for exrta small rooms ONLY!!!
By paragon012
just a few thoughts about this air purifier- it's not a bad air purifier, it just doesn't live up to the promises the manufacturer gives - it says it on the box - for rooms up to 500 sq.feet , well i bought it for my living room which is aprox. 400 sq feet - it was a total waste of time and hopes. then i moved it to the bedroom - about 200 sq ft. - hmmmmmm after 3 days of non stop running on the highest setting i noticed a slight difference in the quality of the air .Then i opened the cover and there was some dust on the filter, meaning - it was doing something but, well not quite good or at least not quite as advertised.I'm giving this product 2 stars because it's relatively cheap and in my smallest bedroom - about 120 sq.ft it did a good job.In conclusion - very underpowered product and NOT suitable for large rooms. the UV light is a good addition and the ozone function is nice as well and hopefully will do there job but this is not an air purifier for 500 sq.ft as advertised. not even close.....i recently purchased another air purifier - Winix 5300 and that is a whole different story - check my review on that one if you wish.it costs 20 bucks more but boy oh boy does it worth it!
