WHY EZ BREATHE

WHY EZ BREATHE ?
2
THE PROBLEM

• AIR TIGHT HOMES
• The entire building industry today is
  dedicated to energy efficiency. This is due to
  the energy crisis recognized in the 1970s

3
What Makes an Air Tight Home?

• Blown Insulation
• Tyvex house wrap
• Windows (Double, triple pane)
• Doors
• Roofs
• Siding
• Sealants
• Caulking

4
The Effects of an Air Tight Home

• Positive Effects
• Energy Efficient
• Low Energy Costs
• Resale Value

• Negative Effects
• Stagnant Air
• Trapped Gases
• Pollutants
• Allergens
• (everyday living, bathing, cooking, cleaning

• The Environmental Protection Agency states,
  that the air in the average American
  Home/Building is 3 to 5 times more polluted than
  outdoor air
• There isnt any virtue in creating a tight
  structure if the quality of air in that structure
  is substantially lower than the outdoor air.

• Green Building Product News, May, 2006

Sick Home Syndrome SymptomsSick Home Syndrome
situations in which a structures occupants
experience acute, adverse health effects and/or
discomfort that appear to be linked to spending
time within the structure and have no specific
link to an illness, caused by poor air quality
often linked to little or no ventilation.

• Headaches
• Eye, Nose or Throat Irritation
• Dizziness
• Difficulty Concentrating
• Fatigue
• Sinus/Respiratory Infections

Ineffective Methods for the Air Tight Home Problem

• Ineffective Methods
• Dehumidifiers
• Air Purifiers
• Plug-ins, Candles
• Open Windows

• Ineffective Functions
• Collects Moisture but
• No Ventilation
• Recirculates the same air /Creates Ozone
• Masks the Problem
• Brings in High Humidity and Pollutants

8
Three Possible SOLUTIONS

• The American lung association and EPA recognize
  that there are three major strategies for
  reducing indoor air pollution
• Source Control
• Air Cleaning
• and Ventilation

9
Source Control

• Eliminating the individual sources of indoor air
  pollution or reducing there emissions is one way
  to improve the air quality in the home.
• This approach is not practical as most sources of
  indoor air pollution are by-products of our
  lifestyle

10
Air Cleaning

• The effectiveness of an air cleaner depend on
  many variables including how will it collect
  polluutants from indoor air, how much it draws
  through the cleaning/ filtering elements and what
  health risks are created by the purification
  process.

11
VentilationThe Best Solution EZ Breathe

• EZ Breathe draws moist, stale, contaminated air
  out of the home
• Replenishes, it replaces moist air with fresh dry
  air. A complete home air exchange occurs about 6
  to 10 time each day.
• Regulates, Airflow is monitored to reach and
  maintain a desired level of humidity

12
Features Benefits of EZ Breathe

• No filter / No Maintenance
• Combats Destructive Dampness
• Cost effective 2 - 4 per month
• Covers up to 7000 square feet
• Three units in one
• Air purifier, Dehumidifier and Air Exchanger
• Improves Indoor Air Quality
