Aeration Systems Selection
There are two standard residential AIRaider™ models, the 433 and the 321, as well as custom systems. Hundreds of AIRaider™ systems have been installed and tested and have proved effective, reliable and dependable for radon and VOC removal.
An independent study conducted by Yale University School of Medicine Department of Epidemiology and Public Health concluded that "the (AIRaider™ 433) units had efficacy percentages of 99.6%, 99.16%... "and the (AIRaider™ 321) unit had a 96.1% efficacy..." At a State of New Hampshire installation site, tests showed that the AIRaider™ 433 removed 96% of the dichloroethane from the water.
Equally effective custom-built AIRaider™ systems are available by special order to remove contaminants from residential, commercial, and municipal sites.
