Corona crisis: Back to the gym routine with the TAC V+ air purifier. Novel air cleaning technology from Heinsberg prevents fitness studios from becoming germ hotspots

With the end of the EU-wide lockdowns, fitness studios have now reopened too, after a long forced break. However, nothing is the same as before. In order to comply with the social distancing rules, many training devices are cordoned off with barrier tape. The snack bar is still shut, and the course rooms are deserted. Only the really hardened fitness fanatics can gain positive results from this training atmosphere. Usually, frustration about the limited training options prevails, sometimes with dramatic consequences for studio operators: while the number of redundancies already rose noticeably during the closures ordered by the authorities, the wave of redundancies remains painfully high in many places even after reopening. The fear of infection with the coronavirus is too great and the restrictions in the studio are too severe.

Aerosols: how dangerous is it to go out for a meal? 3D study from Heinsberg shows the imminent danger with and without TAC V+ air purification

It has been suspected for some time, but has now been confirmed by numerous virologists: the coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 is not only transmitted through droplet infection, but actually in large part via inhaled aerosols. These particles, which are ejected when breathing and speaking, are tiny and, due to their light weight, float invisibly in the room air for up to several hours.

NEW Design air purifier AirgoClean 15 E: the cleanest breathing air possible, thanks to professional dual filter system

Did you know that adults breathe in about 15,000 litres of air every day? And children even double that amount? And yet the air we breathe is almost never free of pollutants – from highly dangerous fine dusts, viruses and bacteria and mould spores to ‘normal’ companions such as pollen, house dust mites and animal hair. If indoor air is polluted with these substances, our performance is reduced and in the worst case illness can result. But the new AirgoClean 15 E air purifier from Trotec effectively filters these and other pollutants from indoor air – thanks to its professional dual filter system.

Will an air purifier protect you from Corona? Which devices are worthwhile and what you should pay attention to when buying

Air purifiers are currently in demand as never before. They filter house dust, pollen, mould spores or bacteria from indoor air.

With this in mind, below we give you an overview of what to consider when buying an air purifier.

Do air conditioning units and fans offer protection against corona? You need to be aware of and take note of this.

During the coronavirus pandemic, dangerous untruths, recommendations and superficial knowledge spread like wildfire on social media.

Which of these statements is true? What do you need to know about air conditioning units and fans in connection to the coronavirus? Let us explain below.

Air purifier TAC V+ creates safe visiting zones with protection against infection in nursing homes

The extent of the risk of infection with corona virus is currently still evident in nursing and retirement homes that are particularly in need of protection.  Only a few days after the general lifting of the ban on visiting nursing homes, 31 people in a Düsseldorf nursing home are now infected with the corona virus. In another senior citizens’ home in Langerwehe (Düren district), 33 residents and 19 employees have tested positive for the virus in recent weeks. Other cities are currently testing the residents of their homes across the board, as random tests also revealed symptom-free infections in the beginning. Renewed bans on visits have been imposed, and there are now also stricter hygiene rules and protective measures for the nursing staff.

Corona risk: Is flying safer than a going to the dentist? We believe we’ve found the perfect solution to this question: Maximum health protection for dentists and patients

Virologists and dental associations are in agreement: very small infectious particles (so-called aerosols with a size of approx. 0.3 – 0.4 μm) present in indoor air are one of the main causes for the rapid spread of the coronavirus. In his recommendations for dealing with the corona pandemic in schools or comparable institutions, Prof. Dr. med. Dieter Köhler writes: “Corona viruses are mainly transmitted via respiration; coughing and sneezing are less significant as compared to bacterial infections”.

It was in the air: numerous worshippers are infected with the coronavirus during a service. Mass infection promotes call for air purifiers in public areasIt was in the air: numerous worshippers are infected with the coronavirus during a service. Mass infection promotes call for air purifiers in public areas

A new case of infection in Frankfurt shows how the importance of air purifiers in houses of worship and prayer. Despite the fulfilment of all requirements, a mass infection occurred after a church service. Experts are therefore increasingly demanding: only a permanent virus air purifier can protect against the inhalation of viral aerosols, which are expelled into the room, especially during loud prayer and singing, and these can remain in the air for hours. The new TAC V+ high-frequency air purifier from Trotec obviously completes insufficient hygiene concepts by providing effective protection against the risk of infection via indoor air. The air purifier quickly and effectively filters infectious aerosols from the air in the room – before they can enter the body via the respiratory tract.
