AccuClean™ Whole-Home Air Filtration System
Why is American Standard AccuClean™ Air filtration better than the rest?
Cleaner air starts with better airflow. Thanks to the patented technology of American Standard AccuClean, you get just that. Traditional filters force air through dense materials to trap particles. Over time they become clogged and hamper airflow, which results in lower airflow and efficiency, also known as “pressure drop.” But with AccuClean whole-home filtration, our unique design gives you long-lasting, consistent performance with the lowest pressure drop and highest efficiency of any filtration system on the market. All so your family can enjoy cleaner air and higher comfort.
With AccuClean,™ you get up to 99.98% cleaner air, and so much more.
Clean air:
AccuClean™ filters the air about 7 times per day throughout your entire home. This means that airborne particles, like dust, pollens, pet dander and even viruses will be trapped in the AccuClean™ and not in your lungs.
​
Efficiency:
Removes up to 99.98% of airborne particulate and allergens down to .3 microns from the filtered air in your home. So you get cleaner air, and more of it.
Ozone:
We designed AccuClean with your health in mind. That is why ozone output from AccuClean is 10x less than the recommended standard allowed by the FDA.
​
Your family is breathing in more allergens than you think.
Today’s homes are better insulated, tightly sealed and use less energy. Unfortunately, this also means that the quality of indoor air can be exponentially worse than outdoor air. This can pose serious health problems for family members who suffer from asthma and allergies.
The Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America (AAFA) and Allergy Standards Limited (ASL) announced that the AccuClean™ whole home air cleaner from American Standard, earned the Asthma & Allergy Friendly® Certification.
The asthma & allergy friendly Certification Program, an independent program in the United States by AAFA with their partner ASL, helps consumers identify products more suitable for people with asthma and allergies. To receive the certification, the AccuClean was independently tested and required to meet benchmark standards as prescribed by ASL and AAFA based on industry leading medical and scientific research in health issues and indoor air pollution.
Commonly Asked Questions
Is American Standard AccuClean™ noisier than other air filtration systems? No. AccuClean doesn’t produce the zapping noises that electronic air cleaners do. AccuClean is virtually inaudible.
How do the life cycle costs of an AccuClean unit compare to other air filtration systems? Unlike other systems that require a ready supply of replacement filters that can cost up to $200 per year, AccuClean has a permanent filter that does not need replacing for 5 years or longer, depending on cleaning cycles.
What kind of maintenance does American Standard AccuClean require compared to other systems? With AccuClean, maintenance is cost-efficient and time-saving. Rather than changing filters every month, AccuClean’s cleanable filters need to be vacuumed once every six months, or more often as needed. Seasonal inspections by a qualified HVAC contractor are recommended.
Is it true that AccuClean “captures” but does not “kill” germs, fungi, bacteria or allergens? There is no way to accurately determine whether germs and the like can be “killed” by an air filter system. In fact, removing airborne fungi, bacteria and allergens from a home’s filtered air is far more important for you and your family’s health. Allergens don’t have to be alive to cause allergic reactions.
AccuClean™ Takes On A Cloud Of Smoke
Some people have expressed concern about the ozone emissions of ionizing air cleaners. Does American Standard AccuClean have an impact on ozone? AccuClean was specifically designed to fall well below the 50 ppb FDA voluntary emission limit for medical devices. In fact, testing of AccuClean by third parties indicated that there’s no more ozone in a home with AccuClean than naturally occurs in the environment already.
