Living Air Classic
The EcoQuest Living Air Classic is the air purifier that really started the entire air purification revolution.
Oh yes, there were a few so-called air purifiers before the Living Air and there are and will be many, many more after the Classic but this air purifier, ladies and gentlemen is the unit that made clean air for real.
I’m not exactly sure when the first Classic was sold by EcoQuest. We have friends that claim their classic is more than 16 years old and I have worked on XL-15’s that look every bit of 15 or more years old. So I guess we can safely say that the Living Air Classic is at least 16 years.
Before the Classic or the XL-15 there was something called the 880 from Alpine Industries but that never became a really popular purifier.
William Converse started Alpine Industries some 20 years ago and made air purification and Alpine a household name in the late 1980’s and early 1990’s and the Living Air Classic was the unit that people remember.
More than 6 million of these air purifiers have been sold.
The Classic was the most popular air purifier to be sold using the ionization / ozone method of cleaning the air invented by Bill Converse who is now with Natural Air working on less expensive supposedly more affordable air purifiers.
Anyhow, the Living Air Classic will clean the air in a home up to 3,000 sq ft and is great for using it as a sanitizer for cleaning up really bad smells like smoke problems or pet odors.
The Classic has 2 knobs on the front of the unit and a switch for its controls making the operation of the unit as simple as can be.
Can you still order a Classic?
Yes, the company still makes the unit and you can still order one but the price difference between the Classic and the top of the line Fresh Air purifier is only about $100 making the Fresh Air much more popular unit today.
The Living Air certainly served its purpose for almost 16 years and helped build the company known as EcoQuest International. And for that reason alone it will always be a classic.
