Alen seeking nominations for teacher giveaway program for the month of May

The students, teachers and staff of Alexandria City Public Schools’ 19 campuses can breathe a sigh of relief because 1,450 Alen Air Purifiers have been installed, making it the school system with the cleanest air in Virginia. More than 43,000 classrooms across the country rely on Alen Air Purifiers to protect students, teachers and staff from Covid-19 contamination.

“We’re on a mission to make classrooms across the country safe against the spread of Covid particulates,” said Andy Graham, CEO of Alen. “Our air purifiers defeat viral spread by capturing 99.99 percent of harmful particles to the level of 0.1 microns (smaller than Covid), and also protect against allergens, dust, mold, bacteria and other aerosolized viruses.”

Classrooms with Alen’s BreatheSmart FLEX or BreatheSmart 75i are equipped with powerful air-cleaning capacity that exceeds public health recommendations through large, medical-grade True HEPA H13 filters. The purifiers are whisper-quiet so teachers can teach and students can learn. They are designed to run 24/7, 365 days a year.

Independent third-party lab tests show that Alen Air Purifiers are effective at removing dangerous air particles within 20 minutes from a 1,050 cubic feet test chamber (around the size of the average classroom) running at one fan speed below maximum. Indoor air quality monitoring will remain a demand even after the current pandemic is over because air purifiers will always apply to colds, flu, whooping cough, allergies, environmental air contaminates, etc. Up to 50 million Americans, including millions of kids, have some type of allergy. In fact, allergies cause about 2 million missed school days each year.

Teacher Appreciation Week began on May 3 and for the second consecutive year, Alen is announcing its teacher donation program. The company has 500 BreatheSmart FLEX air purifiers dedicated to help teachers, professors or any type of educator with peace of mind, worry-free air. Nominations are open until May 31, 2021. https://bit.ly/2QInDS7
