It's time to clear the air. And now there's an easy, portable, proactive way to do it.
The EPA says indoor air may be 5 times more polluted than the air outside, and most of us spend approximately 90% of our time indoors. If you have weather-tight doors and windows, pets, or smoke, you could be adding to the problem. That's why you need the new, whisper-quiet ProShield Plus Air Purifier - the easy, portable, proactive way to help clean the air in your home. It circulates the air, filters out allergens, dirt, and other airborne irritants, captures and kills viruses and germs, and breaks down odors and volatile organic compounds such as chemical fumes and aerosol vapors - with the new Helios ShieldTM permanent odor absorber.
Great for Asthma and Allergy Sufferers.
Every time you close your front door, you're sealing yourself in with airborne bacteria, dust, germs, and allergens. Some you can smell. Most you can't. The new Oreck ProShieldTM Plus helps reduce those nasty particulates in homes, and actually improves air quality. At the same time, it also helps eliminate odors. That's becuase the Oreck ProShield Plus constantly moves the air, drawing in and trapping those particulates. Its unique new Helios ShieldTM UV odor control technology and exclusive Truman CellTM captures pet dander, dust, and other harmful allergens that can drive asthma and allergy sufferers crazy.
Whisper-quiet, easy to use, and environmentally friendly.
The ProShield Plus features easy-to-use controls and offers three different speed settings - high for maximum cleaning, medium for normal use, and silence for quietest operation. A handy remote control allows you to turn the power on or off, and adjust the odor control feature, motor speed, and night light - all from across the room. The Truman CellTM permanent filter never needs to be replaced - which saves you money and reduces waste.

This review is from: Oreck ProShield Plus Air Purifier with UV-A Helios Shield and Remote - AIR12GU (Kitchen)
I recently purchased one of these for our house. Our family suffers from allergies which result many times in sinus infections, as well as colds. I was tired of our two young kids constantly being medicated for their runny noses and I thought this would help. My wife was a bit skeptical, but within the first 2 days of installing this air purifier in the family room the stuffy noses went away and we have not had a sinus infection (or really even a runny nose) since. I have purchased 3 more - one for each bedroom - and am very pleased with the performance. The unit is barely noticeable on the "silent" mode (I have to put my hand over it to know it is on). The kids like the "medium" setting for bedtime because it provides some "white" noise. I typically leave them on medium when we are not home. I have cleaned all of the units and it was very easy. All you do is use the brush attachment on the vacuum and clean up the front, top and inside of it. I did use the Assail a Cell cleaner on the Truman Cell - simply spray it on, wash it off and let it dry overnight. Some people have complained of the snapping or popping noise that the Oreck's occasionally make but I have only heard it a couple times and it let me know it is doing it's job. I have had overall excellent results with this air purifier and highly recommend it. The remote control is very handy. The air in our home feels and smells clean and fresh.

Works for alergies, ok for smokers.,
This review is from: Oreck ProShield Plus Air Purifier with UV-A Helios Shield and Remote - AIR12GU (Kitchen)
I bought 2 of these. I smoke a lot in my apartment. I also have allergies. The unit looks very nice. I had the impression that it might even look good next to my receiver in my home theater. The item really pushes a lot of air both on medium and high settings. It's pretty noisy at those speeds, but near silent at the low setting.
It apparently uses an electrified metal grid to draw charged dust particles to it. It appears to have alleviated my allergies and does seem to keep the cigarette smoke at bay. If you put your nose up to it in operation, the air does smell clean, but I think what you're smelling is ozone. Isn't ozone harmful to people to breathe? Anyway, so far I've noticed it doesn't do a great job of removing the smell of smoke from my apartment immediately but over time it does appear to offer some improvement.

I recently purchased an Oreck ProShield Plus Air Purifier with UV-A Helios Shield and Remote - AIR12GU. When I first bought the purifier the salesperson was very pushy and sold me a more expensive one saying it was better. He actually lied to me because the product I wanted was exactly the same as the one I bought but cheaper and for a smaller room. It started sparking alot and seemed very dangerous. I had to cut the machine off several times and for a few days it didnt even come back on and work. I noticed this product started to make me cough alot. It seemed to capture all the dust on the outside of the machine and around my tv where it was sitting. It did take in alot of dust in the machine but also there was a ton just on and around the machine. I was very unhappy with this product. The only good part about it was the remote and that it was small and didnt take up alot of room.I returned this product. That was a bad experience too. It took me about ten minutes to get a refund for the product. I had to keep telling the salesmen that NO I do not want an exchange that I just want to return it. I wont be back to an oreck store. I'm not sure about there other products but I was extremely unhappy with this air purifier.
