Power Allergy

NILFISK Power Allergy has got the AFPRAL recommendation from the French Allergy Foundation. This means allergy sufferers can buy this high-performance vac with confidence, knowing that they can help protect their homes with this vac against the nuisance of allergens such as dust mites.

The NILFISK Power Allergy is more than just a vacuum cleaner. It filters the air passing through it, cleaning the air that you breathe. Most unfiltered vacuum cleaners are unable to trap all the dust they pick up - in fact they just redistribute the fine dust through their exhausts.

The NILFISK Power Allergy comes with a top-of-the-range HEPA H13 filter, which filters the dirt coming into the vacuum cleaner, letting nothing but clean air out. As an illustration, there are 10,000 fine particles per litre of air at the South Pole, and 100,000 particles in a living room. The exhaust air after a HEPA H13 filter contains only 50 particles per litre. Human lungs are exposed to particles smaller than 0.65 micrometer - and this is where the HEPA filter is active. Particles measuring 0.3 micrometer or less will accumulate in the body. For example, human hair measures 60 micrometer, pollen 15 micrometer, dust mite excrements 10 micrometer, and decayed mite remains 0.4-25 micrometer.

The NILFISK Power Allergy features a powerful 2000w motor for efficient dust pick-up, being an impressive 76% which is better than an average vac's 70% or so performance. The impressive performance defies its compact size - making it ideal for people who live in flats or wherever space is a premium.

General Manager of Nilfisk-Advance, Søren Sørensen, says the NILFISK Power Allergy is a welcome addition to any household where there are allergies, and the recommendation from AFPRAL is a great achievement. "It means consumers who are allergy aware can buy this vac with confidence that they are looking after their good health. The extremely high levels of filtration and dust pick-up make the NILFISK Power Allergy great for people with allergies. Dirt goes in and clean air comes out," he says.

The NILFISK Power Allergy comes in an elegant leaf green metallic colour and, as extra bonus, has a mini turbo brush that efficiently removes pet hairs from your furniture and a hard floor nozzle for smooth cleaning of hard floors.
