During any type of construction project, it’s typical for dust particles to float through the air. While it doesn’t seem like an immediate issue, these particles can cause a variety of unwanted effects, including the following:
- Project fails air quality test.
- Workers on site suffer from allergies and/or asthma.
- Dust particles travel to other areas of a building (and stick around).
Any professional working in the construction industry knows that there is one sure way to prevent these problems — a portable HEPA air scrubber. Some air scrubbers claim to clean and purify the air, but a HEPA filter meets strict filtering guidelines, making it the most effective means of removing these unwanted particles from the air. See our most popular units below.

HEPA Filter Units
Our HEPA air scrubber models feature replaceable 1st, 2nd, and 3rd stage filters which extend the life of the HEPA filter. A true HEPA filter must have the ability to remove 99.7% of particles as small as 0.3 microns from the air.
A HEPA air scrubber helps to eliminate the chemicals, bacteria, and germs in the air that are known to cause allergic reactions, like red eyes, dizziness, chronic fatigue, digestive issues and many other serious health problems. Visit our negative air machine page for more information.
What is HEPA?
HEPA actually stands for High Efficiency Particulate Air, and the technology itself was developed by the U.S. Atomic Energy Commission to remove the airborne radioactive particles from the air. These units are excellent in healthcare settings or to help with building clean-out projects.
If you require air filtration, we even sell new and used models, affordable for any budget.
