Air Purifiers in schools: learning in a safe environment
As kids head back to school, safety is Keeping the air in our schools safe for the children is paramount, so we can keep them healthy and continue to provide a quality education.
Children often rely on schools
Key educators and administrators are always being asked to create a safe learning environment for our kids. An advanced HEPA filter like the one inside Airmega, when combined with other measures, can help to protect students and faculty from airborne contaminants like dust, pollen, viruses and bacteria. In fact, Coway’s HyperCaptive™ system is the only purification network in the world proven to capture 99.999%* of airborne particles down to 0.01 microns.
Capturing viruses and bacteria
With Coway’s Green True HEPA™ and activated charcoal filters, an Airmega can capture and deactivate tiny virus and bacteria particles. These purifiers are also powerful enough to add a layer of safety, while remaining cost effective—the Airmega 400 keeps the air clean in spaces up to 1,560 square feet.
It’s our responsibility
As the stewards of our childrens’ future, the responsibility falls upon us to ensure that every possible step is taken to keep everyone and their families safe. Education is a fundamental institution in this country, and while the work that educators do can sometimes go unheralded, it remains as essential as the air we breathe.
*Coway air purifiers have been proven to trap dust, pollen, dander, viruses and bacteria in the air based on KCL(Korea Conformity Laboratories) testing. They have been tested in a 30㎥ size chamber according to the Korea Air Cleaning Association standard (SPS-KACA 002-132:2018 Modified) to measure the 0.01㎛ size of particle removal rate. It was tested on maximum fan speed in normal room temperature and humidity conditions. The performance may vary in the actual living environment of customers. Tested with Coway Airmega 150, AP-1216L, AP-1512HH, AP-1512HHS, 250, 300, 300S, 400, 400S.

3Aerosol test conducted in a Biosafety level 3 laboratory with two Coway air purifier models, Coway Airmega 250 and 400 for removal of SARS-CoV-2 Aerosol by US based MRI Global, a not-for-profit laboratory and partner of US Department of Defense. The test was conducted in a 13.1ft3 chamber. Virus was aerosolized for 15 minutes and the product was turned on high for 2 minutes. Result showed each product effectively removed over 99.98% of the SARS-CoV-2 in 2 minutes. This is a result from a laboratory experiment condition and result may vary in different conditions. This result does not imply it kills SARS-CoV-2 or prevents the transmission of Covid-19. Coway Airmega 250S and 400S are identical to the tested models and has equal performance with an additional mobile connectivity function.
4The concentration of ammonia, acetaldehyde and acetic acid were proven to be removed within 30 minutes by FCG Research Institute, Inc. Human Life Science Lab. It is not a demonstration result in the actual use space. Not all odors and gases may be supported. → Tested with Coway Airmega 150, 160, AP-1512HH, AP-1512HHS, 400, 400S
5The coverage area of the air purifier is based on an area where the air cleaner can make two air changes per hour (ACPH). An air change per hour translates to how many times an air purifier can clean an area, assuming the height of a ceiling to be 8 ft, in one hour. Therefore ** means two air changes per hour means that the cleaner can clean the area once every 30 minutes and * means air changes per hour means that the air purifier can clean the area once every 60 minutes.
