StayFresh™ APS (Air Purification System)
CHLORINE DIOXIDE ODOR CONTROL PRODUCTS – Maintenance – Shock
General Description
StayFresh APS odor control products safely and reliably release controlled amounts of chlorine dioxide (ClO2). Unlike fragrances, StayFresh APS products actively destroy and absorb odors rather than just covering them up.
StayFresh APS Benefits
- ClO2 is a powerful oxidizer ideally suited for use in Animal Care Facilities.
- ClO2 does not react with ammonia to form chloramines, and it does not form toxic chlorinated organics like seen with chlorine use.
- ClO2, at low dosing, will not harm common materials of construction.
- ClO2 effectively destroys both nitrogen and sulfur based odor compounds associated with decaying flesh, feces, urine, garbage, smoke, musty areas, etc.
StayFresh APS Application Instructions
The product is activated by pouring equal parts of component A and B into a breathable sachet or tub, securing the zip seal or top, and shaking to mix the components. The StayFresh APS sachet or tub is then placed in the vicinity of your air return venting for your facility air-handler, or in the area closest to a problem odor source. Multiple treatment points should be considered in large facilities. Sachets and/or tubs may also be placed in the vicinity of the air exhaust venting for your facility air handler if this is more convenient, but you lose the added benefit of treating your air-handler when using the product in this manner. Note: different odor problems may demand more or less treatment, and users should expect that some adjustments to the dosing protocol may be required until the appropriate regiment for your facility is determined.
StayFresh APS Maintenance products are used for long-term odor control or light odor demands. StayFresh APS Shock products are used for quicker action on intense odors. Item # 4512 packaged (1 large Maintenance and 1 large Shock)/case.
StayFresh APS Product Activation and Use
The media can be easily applied by pouring the materials directly into the breathable polymer film sachet or tub by opening the sachet, or by unscrewing the top of the tub. The granular media is then added to the sachet or tub, the sachet or tub is sealed, shaken to mix, and put into application. For tub use, after shaking to mix material please be sure to remove the plastic seal covering the top when you activate product so gas can escape and go to work.
The sachets should always be placed with the paper (white) side exposed to the air being moved – facing your air-handler. StayFresh APS will produce an initial mild bleach-like odor on activation. This odor will subside when the product is put into application. If not, the sachet or tub should be moved to a more effective location nearer the odor source or away from the user. In the event that moving the product doesn’t resolve the issue, the dosage should be reduced.
