Goldach, Switzerland. (October 25, 2017) — IQAir (www.iqair.com) is pleased to announce its revolutionary new personal air purifier: Atem^®. The IQAir Atem is a new personal air purifier small enough to accompany a personal space like an office desk. Atem, which is German for breath, delivers pure air to your personal breathing zone. Unlike any existing air purifier, Atem delivers a gentle but concentrated stream of clean air exactly where you need it most: your breathing zone. It does so with a professionally engineered PureJet Diffuser^TM that secures to the Atem.

The Atem is a small but incredibly powerful personal air purifier that removes up to 99% of particles through IQAir’s proprietary HyperHEPA filtration, including ultrafine particles. The Atem is equipped with three airflow settings:low provides pure air; medium provides pure air plus light cooling; and the high setting provides pure air plus cooling.

Millions of Americans suffer needlessly from allergies and asthma, especially at work where they have little control over their environment. Until now, those seeking relief have had onlylimited choices. The choice has been between larger air purifiers meant to clean a whole room, small tabletop portable air purifiers which are ineffective or noisy fans that only move dirty air around. IQAir’s 50 years of air quality expertise has inspired the Atem with its compact design, high effectiveness and quiet pure air delivery.

“With 92% of the world breathing unhealthy air, air quality is a concern for many. And often times indoor air quality is much worse than outdoor air quality,” said Frank Hammes, President of IQAir. “Breathing clean air is integral to health and wellness, whether at home or in an office. With the Atem, everyone is now empowered to make the choice to breathe clean air in their personal workspace.”

According to the U.S. EPA, indoor air contains 2 to 5 times more contaminants—and on occasion, as much as 100 times more. Couple that with the fact that most people spend as much as 90% of their time indoors, Atem is a much needed solution to breathing polluted air. The Atem is accompanied by an App that gives users the ability to control fan speed as well as power the device on or off based upon proximity. Additionally, the Atem App provides filter life monitoring, notifying the user when it is time to change the filter. Atem’s HyperHEPA filter lasts up to 12 months. Crafted to the exacting IQAir quality standard, the Atem has a three-year limited warranty. The Atem is currently available through IQAir.com for $399. Replacement filters are $69 and available through IQAir.com.
