NEW AIR PURIFIER FROM VORTICE PROMISES A VIRUS-
FREE ENVIRONMENT Burton-upon-Trent ventilation systems supplier Vortice has launched the DePuro Pro plug and play air purifier, specifically developed with double filtration to reduce the number of particles in the air such as bacteria, micro-organisms and viruses. Designed for all kinds of spaces such as care homes, offices, hotels, universities and the health sector, this is clearly of huge interest as we fight the COVID-19 pandemic.
The DePuro Pro is available in two sizes and comes with HEPA 14 absolute filters, which are capable of retaining up to 99.995% of microparticles (equivalent diameter 0.3µm). The filters require periodic replacement, highlighted by the filter status indicator on the control panel. The DePuro Pro 150 is suitable for rooms up to 50m2 and the DePuro Pro 300 is suitable for rooms up to 100m2. This new product is highly energy efficient, easy to handle and has sound absorbing panels making it almost silent to operate.
General Manager Kevin Hippey said: “We’re delighted to be able to offer an air purifier which will be an important tool to maintain good indoor air quality. Scientists have reiterated the importance of good ventilation throughout this pandemic and that, coupled with air filtration and purification, can really help reduce infected particles making it of particular interest in the health and care sector as well as in universities, hotels and offices.”

“We’ve worked really hard to include additional functions which enables providers to control visitor numbers by setting how many people can visit at one time, add disclaimers for users to declare they do not present COVID-19 symptoms and provide real-time schedules for carers. Friends and family can also use the system to book video calls with residents if they cannot visit the home in person.
Steve Sawyer, Managing Director of Access Health & Social Care, said: “One of the biggest challenges for care homes during the COVID-19 pandemic has been how to keep residents
