IQAir GC VOC Air Purifier

The IQAir® GC series is a specialized line of advanced air cleaning devices that meets almost any gas phase removal need in residential or commercial environments. Each model has a specialized gas phase media configuration.

The IQAir® GC series is a specialized line of advanced air cleaning devices that meets almost any gas phase removal need in residential or commercial environments. Each model has a specialized gas phase media configuration.

IQAir GC VOC Air Purifier Main Features

Volatile Organic Compounds: Advanced air cleaning device for volatile organic compounds (from tobacco smoke and household products such as paints, paint strippers, and other solvents; wood preservatives, aerosol sprays, cleansers and disinfectants, moth repellents and air fresheners, stored fuels and automotive products and emissions, hobby supplies, dry-cleaned clothing), odors, and particulates. (Note: Improved ventilation and use of air purifiers may reduce, but will not completely eliminate, your exposure to secondhand smoke and the associated health risks.)
VOCs are gases such as benzene, butane, carbon tetrachloride, chlorine, chloroform, chloropicrin, cyclohexane, 1.1 dichloroethane, ethylene oxide, freon 11, indole, methyl chloride, methyl chloroform, methylene chloride, nitrobenzene, phosgene, pyridine, sulfuric acid, toluene, xylene
3 Stages of Filtration
Pre & post filters; pre-filter is 99.7% efficient to 0.3 microns
1 gas filter (Four extruded specialty activated carbon cartridges with a total media weight of approx 12 lbs)

Ultra-Quiet Design

With its large fan motor, IQAir® systems produce more clean air with less noise than conventional air cleaners. Unlike most air cleaners, which have the fan motor located after all filter stages, IQAir® systems have the fan in the center, in-between its noise absorbing filters. IQAir® systems also feature a unique double-walled housing design to reduce sound transmission. Eight shock absorbers, which hold the fan ensure that vibration isn't transmitted to the housing. The results are impressive. IQAir® systems are suitable for even the most noise sensitive environments and are virtually inaudible at the lowest fan speed setting.

Advanced Controls

Intelligent Filter Life Monitor
Ordinary air cleaners have you guess when to replace filters or use a preset timer. IQAir's intelligent filter life monitor takes actual use, speed settings and air quality conditions into account. This ensures maximum filter yield and performance from your IQAir system.

Filter Life Monitor
Menu shows remaining life of each individual filter, down to the hour.

Filter Status LEDs
Change color from green-orange-red to signal filter replacement need.

Up to Six Fan Speed Settings
Most air cleaners provide only two or three fan speed settings. You have to run the unit either on a quiet but ineffective fan speed, or choose a more powerful, but noisy speed. IQAir systems give you the choice of up to six fan speeds, allowing you to select the ideal performance-to-sound ratio.

Integrated Timer
Each IQAir® system can be programmed to run automatically. Set the unit to run during office hours or program it in your bedroom to go on after you have reached deep slumber.

Remote Control
Selected IQAir® systems come with a remote control which allows you to turn the unit on and off, select the fan speed and activate the timer.

Certified Performance

In an industry where most air cleaners don't actually meet their manufacturers' claims, IQAir® tests and certifies each and every IQAir® system. In our Swiss production facility, each unit is tested for particle filtration efficiency, filter leakage and air delivery. Each unit is issued with its very own two-page Certificate of Performance, detailing the test results for that very machine.

Easy Filter Replacement

IQAir® systems feature a revolutionary modular tower design, which snaps open to allow access to all filters in a matter of seconds.

Long Filter Life

Long Filter Life

The filters in IQAir® systems are designed to last longer than those in conventional air cleaners.

High-Efficiency Pre-Filtration
While most air cleaners use pre-filters with particle efficiencies well below 20%, IQAir® systems typically retain over 90% of particle mass in the pre-filter. As a result, IQAir's HEPA and gas phase filter are better protected from premature loading.

Independent Filter Stages
Conventional air cleaners often combine several filter types in one filter cartridge. As a result, the whole cartridge has to be replaced even if only one filter type is used up.

Large Filters
To minimize manufacturing cost, most air cleaners use very little filter material. IQAir uses commercial size filters that are able to collect more pollutants and last longer.

Triple Seal Design

The efficiency stated for most air cleaners is purely theoretical. Internal leakage drastically reduces the actual efficiency of most air cleaners.

IQAir systems feature patented triple sealing technology. First, a unique process ensures that the filter media is 100% sealed in the filter frame. Second, our patented 3D UltraSeal ensures perfect sealing between filter frame and housing. Third, individual seals on each housing module ensure an air tight housing. As a result, IQAir® systems have an actual system efficiency which is higher than the theoretical efficiency of conventional air cleaners.

High-Quality Fan

IQAir® systems use the highest quality fan motor available. The IQAir centrifugal, backward curved fan has an astonishing 700 cfm (1200 m3/h) rating. Because each fan is individually balanced and uses steel ball bearings, it outlasts other fans by years.

No-Draft Design

Most air cleaners return the air through a small outlet, which creates annoying air drafts. IQAir® systems are designed to avoid drafts by evenly returning cleaned air through a large 320° vented diffuser.

Energy Efficient

Even though IQAir® systems are very powerful, they are also energy efficient. Outstanding energy efficiency is achieved with a very efficient fan and an advanced fan control setup. As a result, it cost only pennies per day to run an IQAir® system.

Tough Construction

Many high-end air cleaners are made from sheet metal which dents easily and where the paint scratches and chips. Many department store air cleaners use inferior plastics which shatter easily. Built to last and look great for a lifetime, IQAir systems are manufactured from fully cured, high-grade injection molded ABS. A 3 mm (0.125 inch) housing thickness makes IQAir systems extremely impact resistant.

Long Warranty

All IQAir® systems are covered by a one or five year warranty depending on model and country of purchase. Filters, as consumables, are exempt from this warranty.

Customized Gas and Odor Control The GC VOC is compact and customized for specific gaseous contaminants and odors. Just like a professional gas mask, IQAir maximizes filter efficiency for different gases and odors by offering the right filter cartridge. And while gas and odor control is a particular strength of these systems, the GC Series also offers excellent filtration efficiency for particles.

Gas Cartridge Technology The MultiGas uses four filter cartridges to hold up to 12 lbs. of gas phase media. The cylindrical shape of these cartridges allows for optimum contact between the air and gas phase media, which ensure high removal efficiencies. The large surface area of the cartridges enables high air flow rates.

High-Efficiency Particulate Filtration The particulate filtration GC units complements the gaseous filtration process by removing over 97% of particles before they can reach the gas phase media. This increases the efficiency and life of the media by preventing its pores from clogging. The GC units' overall filtration efficiency for particles is 97% at .3 microns. The post filter is electrostatically charged to trap particulate pollutants and microorganisms (bacteria and viruses)
