Just wondering does any one on here have an airvac in their birdrooms and if so what kind and where did you get it from.

Airvac is a dust collector, helps keep the feather dust at bay.

Is it anything like an ioniser.

That's what I want to know, because here in Aus on the net all I can find in air purifiers/Ioniser, air purifier or just Ioniser.

In UK they use airvacs especially for birdrooms

 

 

 

AIRVAC (Avian Air Filtration System)

 

The Airvac is a new air/dust filter that has been tested by leading fanciers in the UK. The tests found it to be approx 60% more efficient than other comparable filters in removing dust from the birdroom. The Airvac is now used in many budgerigar birdrooms and aviarys in the UK. Other places where it is now being used include poultry farms, pigeon lofts and in the homes of people with parrots. It is very versatile and can be mounted on ceilings and walls to suit any location.

 

The Airvac is made from stainless steel and has a removable sliding filter holder for easy cleaning. It has two powerful fans which have an extraction rate of 260 cubic feet per minute, these fans draw the air and dust through the filters, retaining the dust in the filters and distributes the clean air back into the room through vents in the top.

 

The Airvac is supplied with filters that are reuseable and 3 metre long cable with moulded plugs. The unit has a built in on/off switch and uses less electricity than a 60 watt bulb

 

Recommended for use at 40 cubic metres or less per unit for best results.

looks like a really nice product. I get asthma and could really use something like this. Would cost just over $400 dollars to get one sent to Australia. A fair amount of money but only a small amount when your health is at stake. Anybody use or know of any alternative air cleaners. .
