Hurry! Funding for clean air in schools is expiring soon
Why Choose Austin Air for School?

Use Funding to Purchase Air Purifiers!
$2.75 billion is available through the American Rescue Plan’s Emergency Assistance to Non-Public Schools (ARP EANS) program. These funds are available to Governors to provide services or assistance to non-public schools that enroll a significant percentage of low-income students and are most impacted by the qualifying emergency. Section D-1 of the plan states that non-public schools can use these funds on “Improving ventilation systems, including windows or portable air purification systems.”
Reduce Airborne Transmission
Austin Air uses a combination of both activated carbon and Medical Grade HEPA technology in its filters, which has been proven to remove up to 99% of all airborne contaminants as small as 0.1 microns.
Some Austin purifiers have an extra level of protection not found in any other air purifier. These Austin units also contain a HEGA carbon cloth. A 2009 third-party study performed by the Health Protection Agency in the U.K. used a surrogate virus for testing that was 23-28 nm in diameter (smaller than the COVID-19 virus) and found that this activated carbon cloth not only captured the virus but also deactivated it.
The Austin Air Fundraising Initiative
As an Austin Air partner, we’ll offer your school discount pricing to purchase purifiers for the classrooms. (By the way, you can use funding for these.) In addition, we’ll implement a unique school discount code that your staff, school families, and even alumni can use to purchase Austin Air purifiers for home or work.
And here’s the best part (yes, it gets better): we’ll donate a percentage of sales generated with that unique code back to your private school. That includes any bulk ordering placed by business or facilities managers who are associated with your school!
This is an enormous opportunity to help keep students and staff healthy – AND raise funds for upcoming projects and initiatives.

Our air purifiers are clinically proven! We’ve partnered with Cincinnati Children’s Hospital, the American Academy of Pediatrics, Johns Hopkins University, and others to conduct clinical trials on our air purifiers. That means we can prove that our products provide cleaner air for students and staff! Who else can say that?
Clean Air Boosts a Child’s Academic Performance!
Studies also show that as well as offering protection against Covid-19, effective air filtration can also help to boost a child’s performance at school. In 2016, shortly after the Aliso Canyon gas leak, a number of air purifiers were installed in classrooms close to the disaster. After just a few months, children’s test results in Math and English improved significantly, in the same way, they would have if class sizes were reduced by a third.
Technology Recommended by the CDC, WHO, and EPA!
Advice from the CDC, WHO, and EPA is clear: to minimize the spread of airborne viruses like Covid-19, in indoor spaces, portable HEPA air purifiers are recommended. In fact, an extensive review by the EPA concluded the combination of HEPA and Carbon is the safest and most effective solution.
Purifiers that use UV lights, Ionization, and PCO technology are not ideal because they can produce dangerous byproducts that are then emitted into the air. Unfortunately, many schools have already wasted millions of dollars on these unfit technologies.
We have a solution that follows all CDC, WHO, and EPA Recommendations. Austin Air purifiers are the only air purification system on the market that uses Medical Grade HEPA, Activated Carbon, and Zeolite to remove up to 99.97% of airborne allergens and odors.

Toronto School district chose Austin Air to protect 1 million school children and staff!
After reviewing hundreds of air purifiers, the Toronto District School Board deployed Austin Air air purifiers to schools across Ontario. A few months later, Covid-19 case numbers in Ontario began to decline especially among 5-11-year-olds. So far, we have supplied over 40,000 units to schools in Canada.
It's Not Just Viruses Lurking In Schools!
Classrooms
Classrooms have little or no ventilation, and so viruses and bacteria accumulate without a way to escape. Other airborne contaminants in the classroom include harmful chemicals and fumes from adhesives, paint, science experiments, and harsh cleaners.
Faculty Lounge Area
The faculty lounge, where teachers and staff spend time in close proximity, often eating without masks, means effective air filtration is a must.
Library & common areas
Noxious fumes from printers and photocopiers, as well as dust, bacteria, and viruses, are common pollutants found in school libraries and common areas.
restrooms
School restrooms are the perfect breeding ground for bacteria and odors. Effective air filtration helps remove odors and other airborne contaminants, creating a clean, safe space for students, teachers, and staff.
cafeteria
A busy cafeteria, where large groups of students and staff spend time together, eating without masks, can be a high-risk environment for the transmission of COVID-19 and other viruses. Other contaminants in the cafeteria include NO2 from gas appliances and chemicals and VOCs from cleaning products.
Nurse's room
Perhaps the most dangerous space in the school, without effective air filtration, is the nurse’s room. This is an extremely high-risk environment for viral and bacterial transmission.
pollution from the street
If your school is close to a busy road or the school parking lot, toxic emissions from the school bus and other vehicles can find their way indoors. Without effective air filtration, these chemicals and gases can have a serious impact on the health of students and staff.
