Available as an accessory for the UV light bulbs
of ALL competitor UV light air products! Heterogeneous
photocatalytic oxidation (PCO) eliminates concentrations
of organic contaminants from gaseous effluents by converting
them to safe substances such as water vapor or carbon
dioxide. Your existing UV air purifier with germicidal
protection and the addition of Snapcat™ photocatalytic
oxidation removes musty odors, pet dander, viruses, mold,
bacteria, and other airborne pathogens. Eliminates VOCs
(Volatile Organic Compounds). Helps clean and sanitize
air ducts and kill mold while eliminating odors throughout
the entire office or even your own home.

Snapcat™
is based on CaluTech's most advanced nano-technology Photocatalysis
as the predecessor to OxyCat
(the newest technology available only with CaluTech UV
air sanitation systems, while SnapCat is available for
any competitor UV system).
In the presence of your existing UV light source
and natural moisture in the air, oxygen is formed on the
Snapcat™ plate's surface. This intelligently breaks down
unwanted odors, pungent smells, allergens, air pollutants
and harmful toxins through an oxidation process. Snapcat™
protects you from absorbtion of pollutants that may otherwise
accumulate in an enclosed area. Snapcat is ideal for any
workplace, gyms, schools, hotels, hospitals, nursing homes,
day cares and homes. Snapcat™ not only attacks and decomposes
the cause of odors, but also continuously offers an air
purifying effect year round, creating a healthy environment.

Traditional air purifiers work by forcing air
throught the machine, where their effectiveness is largely
dependent on the size of the room and the amount of the
air that can be treated at one time. Some of the more
advanced technology such as ozone generators create harmful
byproducts that are hazardous to your health. Snapcat
photocatalyst air oxidation combined with your UV-C light
germicidal air purifier is an invisible air purification
system that continuously maintains a pure and clean environment,
and it's silent air purification. Simply add our SnapCat,
turn on the UV system and let the air purification process
begin.
If you already own a CaluTech UV air sterilizer
you can easily add the Snapcat™ snap-on strips to your
existing UV lamps, or add Snapcat™ at your next lamp change.
It's also available for other UV air purifier
models not made by us upon request, same price! OxyCat
is the newest version, available only with new CaluTech
UV systems, or with replacement lamps.

Snapcat™ allows a simple, yet effective way to
utilize photocatalytic oxidation technology in your home
or office. The photocatalytic strips are different than
some UV air purifier models made by others, which use a
simple piece of titanium metal in the attempt to produce
a catalyst oxidation process. Titanium Dioxide, or Titania
(chemical name ti02) is a product not produced by nature
and not made from titanium metal. It is extracted mainly
from rutile beach sand (usually sand from Australia) and
when it is used in the Snapcat™ process it becomes a powerful
oxidizer which reacts with UV light. The Snapcat™ strips
are manufactured and coated with a very pure yet non-toxic
formula which is baked on the Snapcat™ strip. This coating
lasts for 5 years, or more. Adding Snapcat™ technology to
CaluTech's UV air purification gives you a superior method
for air purification. UV-C germicidal light produced by
the CaluTech product line eliminates viruses, mold, bacteria
and other living airborne pathogens by modifying the living
organism's DNA, preventing them from reproducing, and causing
the organisms to die. Adding Snapcat™ strips to our UV air
purifiers causes a reaction between the UV light and the
strips. This reaction is called Heterogeneous
Photocatalysis, or quite simply 'Photocatalytic Oxidation'
/ PCO Technology. The PCO process generates hydroxyl radicals
which are among the most powerful oxidizers. Like UV-C light
these oxidizers destroy microorganisms in the air, but the
advantage is the ability for these oxidizers to reach places
where the germicidal UVC light cannot reach. In addition,
because SnapCat is a semiconductor it absorbs UV light and
is not broken down in the process. It breaks down volatile
organic compounds (VOCs) such as odors and gases like carbon
monoxide or nitrous oxide. These gases are converted by
the photocatalytic process into carbon dioxide, rendering
them completely harmless. All you have left is pure clean
air!

Unlike
spray deodorizers, Snapcat actually eliminates odor and
harmful bacteria.
Working in conjunction with UV air purifiers you have
a cost effective air sterilization system.
Titania is
found in processed food, toothpaste, even cosmetics. We
eat it and wear it, who would have though it cleaned the
air we breathe? It's a powerful photocatalyst. When it's
in the UV light it doesn't burn up like living organisms
because it's a semi-conductor type photocatalyst. Scientists
are developing 'self-cleaning clothes' with Titania. Even
self-cleaning tiles for floors & walls are being made
overseas.
It's an extremely powerful oxidizer, lethal to odors and
toxins but harmless to us.

DID YOU
KNOW...Bacteria, viruses, molds, mildew, animal
dander, cat saliva, dust mites, cockroaches and
pollen are listed among the types of biological
contaminants that are often present in homes or
offices. Sources of these pollutants are quite diverse.
Viruses are transmitted by people and animals, pollens
come from plants, pets have saliva and dander, bacteria
are spread by people, animals, and soil/plant material,
protein from urine in mice and rats is a potent
allergen and can become airborne when dry. When
biological contaminants enter the central/forced
air heating and cooling systems, these systems become
their breeding grounds. Mold, mildew, and other
pollutants are then distributed throughout the home
or office. If standing water, water-damaged materials,
or wet surfaces are present, they also become breeding
grounds for mold, mildew, bacteria, and insects.
Dust mites are a strong biological allergen for
many people and these breed in damp, warm environments.
