Horizon Introduces Innovative Home Air Freshening System
Premier Heating and Air Conditioning Company in DE, PA, MD Becomes Region’s First Authorized Dealer of Air/Q™ Whole House Air Freshener™ from Prolitec
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(WILMINGTON, DE; October 27, 2009) — Horizon Services, Inc. – the premier plumbing, heating and air conditioning services company in Delaware, Southeastern Pennsylvania and Maryland — is pleased to announce that it has been chosen as the first authorized dealer in the region for the Air/Q™ Whole House Air Freshener™ (WHAF) —- the world’s first fully adjustable, HVAC-integrated home air freshening system.
Developed by Prolitec Advanced Air Treatment Systems, this innovative product was designed to replace inefficient and potentially harmful home air-freshening products such as aerosols, plug-ins and scented candles. Air/Q uses your heating and air conditioning system to deliver a safer, more effective odor neutralizer and scented fragrances throughout your entire home — without flame or heat and without releasing any harmful VOCs (volatile organic compounds).
According to Shane Donahue, Service Manager at Horizon Services, Air/Q gives homeowners a safe, affordable and highly efficient air-freshening alternative.
“This technology has been in use for years at many of the nation’s top hotels, resorts, retails stores and spas to improve air quality and create a pleasant ambiance,” said Donahue. “Unlike traditional air fresheners, which simply cover up odors, Air/Qactually releases a neutralization agent that eliminates odors including human and pet malodors, cigarette smoke and other unpleasant smells. On top of that, Air/Q allows you to automatically deliver the pleasing scent of your choice uniformly throughout your home — not just room-by-room.”
Donahue explains how Air/Q works: ” The Air/Q appliance converts the liquid odor-destroying agent and fragrance into microscopic droplets that behave like a dry vapor. These micro-droplets are injected into your HVAC system to blend with the airflow and are uniformly distributed throughout the entire home. The homeowner can then easily adjust and control the operating cycle and scent intensity through a user-friendly computer interface inside the appliance.”
Air/Q’s patented micro-droplet technology delivers a uniform air treatment and scent throughout a home using an ultra-low concentration of liquid and with no build-up in the duct work. The system puts out droplets that are less than 1 micron in diameter, 1/50th the size of a typical aerosol droplet and weighing approximately one-millionth as much as those formed by traditional aerosols. Consequently, Air/Q can cover massive spaces evenly using a tiny fraction of the liquid required by other air-fresheners.
Among the many advantages of the Air/Q Whole House Air Freshener:
- Air/Q effectively erases (rather than masks) pet, smoke, human, food, and garbage odors.
- Does not use or generate harmful VOCs, solvents, propellants or soot.
- Leaves no residues, deposits or stains.
- Diffuses evenly throughout house and rooms.
- Works in small or large homes. Covers up to 40,000 cubic feet.
- Ultra-low energy use.
- Meets and exceeds all consumer product safety standards.
- Wide selection of pleasing fragrances.
- Fragrance cartridges last an average of 60 days.
Air/Q is also extremely simple to install and use. It attaches to the air handler of your furnace and/or air conditioner using a mounting template with four screws; a Horizon service technician can properly install one in minutes. As well, homeowners can easily replace Air/Q fragrance cartridges as needed and the on-board computer controls are user-friendly.
Air/Q Whole House Air Fresheneris only available from and installed by authorized heating and air conditioning contractors. Horizon Services is the first authorized dealer in Delaware, Southeastern Pennsylvania and Maryland.
“Everybody wants a home that smells clean and fresh, but today’s green-conscious consumers are paying close attention to what they put in the air,” said Mark Aitken, co-owner of Horizon Services. “Homeowners are particularly concerned about the impact of the harmful chemicals emitted by some of these old-fashioned products, store-bought air freshening products. We at Horizon Services are extremely pleased to offer our customers a product that only makes their homes more pleasant and comfortable, it can make them healthier and safer.”
