Respira Hydroponic Air Purifier: Nature Knows Best
Combine today’s most exacting air filtration technologies with Earth’s oldest filtration system and what you’ll get is Respira smart air purifier and garden, a hydroponic home ecosystem by New Earth Solutions.
As a leading innovator of living walls since 2018, New Earth Solutions set out to create “the world’s first-ever living air purifier using the natural science of biofiltration, and the principles behind biophilic design.” And dare we say – they seem to have pinned it. Botany meets humanity in this smart, apartment-friendly filtration machine.
The best part? It’s not just for green thumbs.
Respira Air Purifier – Intelligent by Design
Symbiotic microbial bacteria accumulate on the roots of hydroponic plants. This phenomenon is something that biologists and agricultural experts have known for quite some time now. Respira’s biofiltration architecture takes advantage of that information, and this is how: The unit’s fanning assembly pulls air into the unit and directs that air over the plants’ “rootzones.” Those root-living microbial bacteria then actively capture pollutants and toxins within the air, break them down, and pass them on to Respira’s plants in the form of nutrients. It’s an orchestral act of symbiosis.
Take as much or as little command as you like with your Respira with the smart air purifier and garden system’s full suite of controls, which you may manipulate via the integrated LCD panel or the app on your smart device. The suite works in constant tandem with the sensors mounted throughout the container so that you can:
- Create and adjust the light schedule.
- Dial-in fan, pump, and LED settings.
- Monitor overall plant vitality.
- Receive alerts concerning nutrient availability, lighting, and water level.
- Track air quality in real-time.
Relax and let the air purifier ecosystem take care of its own green thumbing by activating Respira Smart Garden’s air purification and water conservation Smart Modes.
