Hello Boquete!
Thank you for years of enthusiastic response to Air Oasis Panama! It is our pleasure to be providing a quality product and service that makes life in the "mold belt" easier and healthier for all of us!
Now that we are entering the rainy season again, it seemed a good idea to answer some of the most frequently asked questions and share some of the typical responses from our clients ...
FAQs:
What is the difference between a dehumidifier and the Air Oasis machines?
A dehumidifier is a household appliance used to help reduce the level of humidity in the air. They are generally not energy-efficient and are limited in their ability to stop or prevent mold. Mold, a type of fungus, requires moisture, oxygen, warmth, and food, which includes paper, wallpaper, wallboard, sugars (fruits, vegetables), fabrics, body oils, wood, dust, etc. All of these conditions are necessary for it to grow. Lowering the level of humidity helps but does not stop mold. In addition, dehumidifiers do not address any of the other harmful aero-allergens that we deal with on a daily basis.
Air Oasis Sanifiers, unlike dehumidifiers, are actually designed to destroy mold, mildew, viruses, bacteria and other aero-allergens. They produce catalysts (a unique combination of catalytic molecules, hydro peroxides and super oxide ions) that radiate through a house providing 100% silent air purification.
How do the Air Oasis products work?
(This is a little technical) The Air Oasis air purifiers utilize state-of-the-art, energy-efficient technologies unique to any product currently on the market today: AHPC Cell (Advanced Hydrated Photocatalytic Oxidation Cell) - the next generation in catalytic oxidation. The AHPCO Cell technology consists of a proprietary, high-intensity broad spectrum UV tube in a hydrated catalytic matrix cell that creates hydro peroxides, super oxide ions, hydroxyl ions, passive negative ions and ozonide ions that circulate throughout your home or business, providing 24-hour protection against not only airborne mold, but also bacteria, viruses, odors and VOC's (volatile organic compounds). All of these air pollutants combine to cause the allergic effects common in Panama and listed below.
What health conditions are caused or made worse by mold & mildew?
In addition to its being an unpleasant odor and sight, mold can cause harmful effects to human health that might turn to allergic infections and toxic reactions. The most common allergic effects are:
Nasal congestions and irritation
Mucous membrane irritation
Allergic reactions - Rhinitis and Asthma
Sneezing and coughing
Throat and eye irritation
Difficulty breathing
Asthmatic attacks
What maintenance is required for the AO units?
For the AO250 Mobile units, one should plan to replace the AHPCO UV Cell once a year. In addition, the filter should be brushed off periodically, depending upon the amount of dust being filtered.
For the remaining AO units, the AHPCO UV Cell should be replaced only every 3 years. There are no filters to be replaced or cleaned, nor are there plates to be wiped off.
What is the warranty on the Air Oasis units?
The Air Oasis Mobile 250 units and AHPCO cells are covered for 1 year.
The Air Oasis 1000G3 and 3000XG3 units are covered for 3 years. The associated AHPCO Cells are covered for 2 years.
How often do I run my AO units?
Since we live near forests and rivers, there is a high concentration of mold colonies. You cannot keep spores and many other allergens out of your home, thus the importance of regular home cleaning and maintenance, eliminating and correcting areas which have had water leakage or infiltrations, and regular use of Air Oasis Sanifiers. This combination provides the very best results.

How did Air Oasis Panama begin?
After moving into a rental home in Boquete, Ron & Laura learned quickly about how mold causes health issues. They noticed that things didn't smell right, but assumed it was due to the house being closed up and what Ron was experiencing would get better. Everything was cleaned from floor to ceiling and the windows were left open to air the house out. After a few weeks friends visited them and they asked if they had ever thought about air purifiers. The friends shared their very positive experiences with air purifiers. About two months went by and Ron began having headaches, bronchial issues and even coughing up blood. They had to find a solution! After a lot of research and comparing available air purifiers, the decision was made to invest in Air Oasis Sanifier units. They ordered their units plus a few extra since a couple of their neighbors expressed interest in trying them too. In a very short period of time, they all were impressed with the results. One person led to another and then to another and Air Oasis Panama was established. Finally a truly effective, energy efficient product was available to provide a solution to a very real challenge to how to help people solve their mold, mildew and aero-allergy problems.
