Abstract
An air ionization unit is provided to ionize air to remove particulates and to release cleaned air. Air moves into the air ionization unit where it may be first filtered by an air intake filter. The air is moved, preferably by a fan, into contact with an ion generator, where the air is ionized. One or more (such as two) other fans may be used to provide airflow to (1) at least partially remove ions emanating from the air that has been exposed to the ion generator, and (2) to push the cleaned air through one or more ozone filters and out of the air ionization unit. The air ionization unit may also include an outgoing air filter, and one or more doors to access the air intake filter and/or the air ionization unit.
