Amid the sea of pollen counts and smog alerts that keep the outdoor air quality in the public eye, more and more people realize that the air inside is a lot worse. According to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, some pollutants in indoor air can be four to five times more concentrated than in outdoor air. Consumers spend around $500 million a year on plug-in room air cleaners.

Trane is one of the most reliable companies that work in creating appliances that improve our comfort at home. Famous for its heating and cooling systems, Trane now gives customers a device to improve indoor air quality dramatically: Trane CleanEffects.

What is Trane CleanEffects in a nutshell?

Trane CleanEffects is an electronic air cleaner that has unparalleled air cleaning performance. Trane CleanEffects uses patented and innovative air cleaning technology to remove particles and allergens in your homes, including bacteria, smoke, dust, pollen, pet dander, and mold spores. It can remove particles as tiny as .1 (1/1000th the diameter of a human hair), a size that no other air cleaner can collect. As a result, Trane CleanEffects will remove most allergens and particles that travel through your home’s central air system so that you and your family breathe easier and feel better.

Trane CleanEffects is 100 times more efficient than the typical 1-in filter. You will need eight standard room HEPA (High-Efficiency Particulate Air) cleaners to obtain the same cleaning performance as the Trane CleanEffects.

How does it work?

Trane CleanEffects is an electronic cleaner, so it electrically charges airborne particles. The charged particles are attracted to the collection cells and then eliminated from the air. That’s where similarities with electronic air filters end, as Trane CleanEffects uses technology that increases the power of the charge so that more and smaller particles get charged and eliminated.

The system uses a low-pressure drop to clean the air in your house. Trane CleanEffects uses the HVAC air handler to circulate air throughout the house. When the fan on the HVAC system is operating, the action is highly efficient. If the fan doesn’t run, the Trane Clean Effects system won’t be able to benefit from air circulation to clean the air.

Is it tested?

Under real-world conditions, Trane Clean Effects has been put to numerous performance tests, such as performance-testing by LMS Technologies in the laboratory and Eh&E. The tests revealed that Trane CleanEffects has a special clean air delivery rate surpassing competing products. Trane CleanEffects system presents a clean air delivery rate of 1,200, whereas the best whole-house electronic air cleaners have a 660 rate. So, a regular in-home device offers a clean air delivery rate of 10, so it successfully cleans ten cubic feet of air per minute.

A third-party laboratory testing also revealed that Trane CleanEffects could eliminate more than 99% of the surrogate for the virus causing Covid-19. Moreover, it has done within 30minutes.

Is it energy efficient?

Trane Clean Effects doesn’t just ensure unique filtration and cleanliness, but it also has essential maintenance and operating benefits. For the air cleaned, the energy consumption is relatively low. Also, it doesn’t require regular filter replacement but a simple cleaning process. Most of the time, Trane CleanEffects will use the same amount of electricity as a 75-watt light bulb uses. Unlike the 1-in filters in most homes, Trane CleanEffects doesn’t need regular replacement. Please pay attention to the indicators on the unit to see when it’s time for cleaning. Typically, you will easily vacuum or rinse the filter every 3 to 6 months.

How can you use it? How much does it cost?

Trane CleanEffects can be a part of a new Trane central system or an accessory to a current central heating or cooling system. The price for a unit depends on the type of system you currently have at home. With installation, you will pay around $1,200 for a Trane CleanEffects. If you opt to install it as an accessory to a current central system, the installation process is fast and easy. Contact an independent Trane dealer for further details.

Why does Trane CleanEffects stand out?

Trane CleanEffects has many qualities and here’s what sets it apart from the other similar electronic air filters:
