AHPCO Technology
AHPCO Technology Developed by NASA
The proprietary patent-pending Air Oasis AHPCO catalyst is superior to any PCO catalyst currently on the market. The AHPCO catalyst contains six rare catalyst metals. We also incorporate nano size particles and special hydrating agents to increase the kinetic rate of reaction providing clean air fast! This breakthrough technology, originally developed by NASA, does not rely on filters and is virtually maintenance free. In fact, in many circumstances our AHPCO technology reduces contaminants more efficiently than a HEPA filter without the high cost of replacing filters on a regular basis.
What Is It?
The 9″ nano Induct is an air purifier designed to be duct mounted in a HVAC (Heating Ventilation and Air Conditioning) system. The 9” nano Induct is capable of cleaning the air in every area supplied by the HVAC system, making this unit more efficient than standalone or countertop air purifiers that only cover a single room. We recommend using the 9” model in areas below 3500 square feet*.
This air purifier quickly and effectively reduces carbon-based contaminants, providing fresh, clean smelling air in only minutes. What are carbon-based contaminants? Some of the more familiar carbon-based contaminants include mold, bacteria, viruses, odors and volatile organic compounds.
We accomplish all this by using the AHPCO (advanced hydration photocatalytic oxidation) technology developed by NASA and enhanced by the Air Oasis research and development team (Dr. Jeff Bennert, Jon Bennert and Dr. Nabarun Ghosh).
The 9” nano Induct installs in less than 15 minutes, connecting to a standard 110VAC – 240VAC electrical outlet or hardwired to a 24VAC power source. There are no complicated multiple settings to learn, no routine maintenance to perform, or flters to change or clean. The only maintenance required is changing the AHPCO Cell every two years. The blue lamp replacement LED indicates when the AHPCO Cell is ready for replacement. This air purifier is virtually maintenance free!
How It Works
- The germicidal UVC lamp destroys germs as they pass through the rays of UV light.
- Light rays from the UVC lamp react with the nano Nickel HCT™ catalyst to produce catalytic molecules.
- Catalytic molecules seek out and destroy carbon-based molecules by converting them into harmless carbon dioxide and water.
What are carbon-based molecules? Examples include:
• Odor causing VOC’s
• Smoke
• Mold
• Bacteria
• Viruses
• and other aeroallergens…
This breakthrough technology, originally developed by NASA, does not rely on flters and is virtually maintenance free. In fact, in many circumstances our AHPCO technology reduces contaminants more efficiently than a HEPA filter without the high cost of replacing flters on a regular basis.
Since air is not being forced through thick filters, large fans requiring high amounts of electricity are not needed. This creates an extremely energy efficient air purifier able to operate on a fraction of the electricity required by most air purifiers.

Energy efficient:
Many commercial air purifers use well over 100 Watts of electricity. The Air Oasis 9” nano Induct uses less electricity than a 45-Watt light bulb, saving you money and saving the environment every day.
This compact unit allows for multiple applications installation scenarios:
They can be mounted in either the supply side or return side of your HVAC system. Simply place the nano Induct within 10 feet of an electrical outlet. To help you determine the optimal placement we listed a few examples:
- Above coils to reduce mold and bacteria growth on the coils.
- Reduce contaminants in ductwork by mounting the nano Induct in the plenum on the supply side of the HVAC system.
- In large commercial applications air becomes re-contaminated as it travels through the ductwork. Therefore we designed this extremely compact unit to give you the ability to mount several nano Induct units throughout the ductwork.
- Reduce airborne contaminants in a room by installing the nano Induct within 10 feet of the air outlet vent supplying the air to the room being treated.
