A: At this time, we CANNOT make such a statement. Although our medical expert is in the process of obtaining testing reports for use against Coronavirus, at the present time we do not have any. The HEPA filter used by FitAir Necklace is a TRUE HEPA filter which has been certified to remove 97.5% of 0.3 micron contaminants ( HEPA filter is compatible and equal in its properties with an N95 Filter). Furthermore, FitAir Necklace is the only current portable device on the market which offers 2 filtering points of entry; the true HEPA filter (as mentioned above) and the N95 mask supplied with the FitAir Necklace device. So, in essence, you are doubly protected.

A: Normally every (averaged sized) human inhales around 5 Liters of air every minute. Unfortunately, ALL humans have something called Anatomical DEAD SPACE in our bodies. That just means we have “tubes” in our bodies (like the trachea or our windpipe), where air JUST sits there and DOES NOT participate in gas exchange in our lungs. This dead space is about 1.5 Liters. So, really ONLY 3.5 Liters of fresh air gets delivered to our lungs every minute. NOW, when you put on a REGULAR mask, there is now MORE dead space to be added on top our anatomical dead space; and that is the dead space between your face and the mask! So even more bad air just is sitting there, not ventilated! FitAir Necklace filters and infuses, and refreshes continuously 130 Liters of fresh purified air every minute. So that Dead Space now gets circulated, gets cleaned and thus more fresh air is brought to your lungs so you breathe so much better. You breathe better air, fresher air and cleaner air with FitAir Necklace than without it.

A: ABSOLUTELY NOT! There is NO air leak from the FitAir Necklace at all, thus you CANNOT contaminate anyone. The FitAir’s Necklace 1st point of filtering is the true HEPA filter which “sucks” in the surrounding air, it filters it and purifies it and delivers it via its attached hose to your mask where then you inhale freshly purified filtered air. The 2nd point of filter is the N95 or KN95 mask which is on your face and that also filters the air you breathe. There is no air escape from the FitAir Necklace. Furthermore there has never been a documented case to this date of a healthcare worker infecting someone else with their mask. Please see study below:    What proportion of healthcare worker masks carry virus? (FINDINGS: NO strong evidence to support the assumption that mask use may increase the risk of viral transmission).

A: Yes. We do sell replacement masks. It's 10 in a box. But please remember that these masks are dedicated to being used together with the FitAir Necklace filter unit and should not be used independently. Also you can use other approved masks together with the FitAir Necklace as long as you cut a hole of our connector size on it. Our healthcare worker clients simply cut a hole that fits the FitAir Necklace tubing into their N95 masks and used it as such.

A: TO THIS DATE, WE DO NOT KNOW OF ANY HEALTHCARE WORKER WHO HAS WORN A FITAIR NECKLACE WHO HAS BECOME SICK. We are preparing a research paper to document this and we shall make it available on this website when it will be published.
