摘要: A built-in apparatus and method for treating air including a housing with an air inlet and an air outlet. An air mover positioned near the air outlet is configured to draw the air through the air inlet. The housing encloses an air treatment zone, such as including an oxidizing zone, and an ozone removal zone positioned downstream of the air treatment zone and oxidizing zone. The air treatment zone includes UV light and/or ozone that partially oxidizes the chemical contaminants in the air treatment zone. A catalyst in the oxidizing zone oxidizes elements within the air treatment zone. The ozone removal zone includes a second, different catalyst material. A UV bulb that may or may not generate ozone is positioned within or downstream of the first and/or second catalyst materials to assist catalyst oxidation and/or self-clean the apparatus.

摘要: An apparatus and method for treating air. A housing can enclose a heating zone and an oxidizing zone positioned downstream of the heating zone with respect to a flow direction of the air being treated. A catalyst in the oxidizing zone oxidizes contaminants from the air, and an air mover positioned is configured to move air from an air inlet through the housing to an air outlet. An air treatment cycle can include an air cleaning mode at a high air flow and a self-cleaning mode at a lower air flow. A heater is operated during the self cleaning mode to oxidize contaminants that on the catalyst from the air cleaning mode.

摘要: An apparatus and method for treating air includes a UV illumination source in a housing and arranged to expose air to UV illumination suitable to inactivate microorganisms. One or more light baffles can be arranged so that UV illumination is incident on an inlet or outlet side of the light baffle. First and second light baffles can operate as a catalyst element and each can respectively have first and second pluralities of air flow channels extending in first and second directions from an inlet side to an outlet side of the light baffle. The first and second directions can be arranged at an angle such that UV illumination is prevented transmission through the first and second light baffles. Air flow channels of a baffle can extend in a direction from an inlet side to an outlet side of the light baffle and can be inclined relative to the inlet side of the baffle by a slant angle of 10 degrees to 45 degrees. The slant angle can be at least the arcsin of the ratio of the flow channel opening size to the baffle depth.
