>99.99% reduction of mould on fan and coil surfaces
Student residence
The most direct evidence we have that the inside of an air conditioning unit is itself a contamination source. Viable mould on the fan housing and coil surfaces was removed completely, whether the unit ran continuously or only on temperature demand.
| Contaminant | Medium | Reduced |
|---|---|---|
| Mould spores | Surface (fan/coil) | >99.99% |
| TVOC | Airborne | >90.00% |
| HCHO (formaldehyde) | Airborne | >90.00% |
“The use of the PTAC unit completely removed the viable mold spores found on the fan housing and coil surfaces of the AC units. These results were the same whether the unit was operated continuously or as to temperature demand. It would be my considered opinion that PTAC would serve as an effective deterrent to mold growth on and in an AC unit, and would also be expected to produce a sustained and improved overall indoor air quality within the serviced areas.”
