RCI
Radiant Catalytic Ionization or RCI combines high intensity ultraviolet light with a specially developed rare metal hydrophilic coating to reduce airborne contaminants and odors while creating super oxide ions and hydro-peroxides. These products of the Fresh Air by EcoQuest Advanced Oxidation Process continues working to reduce more odors and VOC’s, and to attack micro-organisms
By engineering the proper light wavelengths into the RCI cell, EcoQuest has developed a highly effective system designed to utilize 254 nm hv germicidal UV light. Falling between visible UV light and invisible X-Rays in the light spectrum, UVX makes use of the same oxidation and ionizing properties of light as naturally occurring sunlight.
For those of you that aren’t interested in the alphabet soup technical explanation, in simpler terms, Fresh Air takes advantage of these ionizing properties and combines them with the photo catalytic reactions of specific rare and noble metals to create Radiant Catalytic Ionization (RCI). This innovative use of light is what makes RCI so effective.
In the most simple terms: It works great!
When you clean your RCI cell do not wash the it, damage from water may result. Carefully vacuum accumulated lint from the cell.
