Air Scrubbers for Abatement: Negative Air Machines for Regulatory Compliance
Negative Air Machines for Containment Pressure Control
Air scrubbers used in asbestos, lead, and mold abatement serve a different purpose than general air purifiers. Abatement air scrubbers must create and maintain negative air pressure within containment zones, filter at HEPA efficiency, and run continuously for the duration of a project — often multiple days. The EPA NESHAP regulations for asbestos renovation and demolition require negative pressure containment for regulated asbestos removal in occupied buildings — the air scrubber ducted to exterior exhaust is the mechanism that creates that pressure differential. The OSHA asbestos standard (29 CFR 1926.1101) requires regulated work areas to be maintained under negative pressure to prevent asbestos fiber migration into adjacent clean spaces. Size your negative air machine to achieve at least 4 air changes per hour in the containment zone — more for high-risk applications. Abatement Technologies HEPA-AIRE negative air machines are purpose-built for this application with CFM ratings matched to containment zone sizing and ducting connections for exterior exhaust.
XPOWER Portable Air Scrubbers for Multi-Hazard Remediation
XPOWER portable HEPA air scrubbers deploy across mold remediation, water damage, and abatement projects where a full negative air machine is oversized for the scope or where air recirculation — rather than exterior exhaust — is the required configuration. The XPOWER AP-1500U Commercial UV-C and HEPA Air Scrubber combines HEPA filtration with UV-C light for additional pathogen reduction — a configuration used in mold remediation and post-contamination cleanup work where biological hazards accompany the particulate load. These compact units stack for transport and deploy quickly within containment zones. For large containment volumes requiring high air change rates, the Abatement Technologies negative air machine line provides higher CFM output with the ETL certifications that abatement contractors need for compliance documentation on regulated job sites.

Complete Abatement Systems: Vacuums, Air Scrubbers, and Containment
For abatement contractors who need a complete equipment program rather than individual components, Abatement Technologies manufactures the full abatement system: negative air machines, portable air scrubbers, containment hardware, and HEPA vacuums designed to work together. Sourcing from a single manufacturer simplifies training, parts management, and warranty support across the full equipment package. The AIRE GUARDIAN mobile dust containment cart combines containment, air scrubbing, and mobility in a single unit designed for ICRA-compliant healthcare construction and abatement work. For mold remediation, the IICRC S520 standard specifies air filtration and containment requirements; for lead abatement, EPA RRP Rule and HUD regulations govern containment and air quality management in addition to OSHA requirements — Abatement Technologies equipment carries the certifications required to satisfy compliance verification across all three regulatory frameworks.

Brio Air Filtration = Game Changer
Located in the Twin Cities in Minnesota, we acquired our Brio Air Filter in mid-late Spring of this year (2023) when pollen count was high and we were beginning to experience the effects of Poor Air Quality Index as a result of smoke particulates from fires in Canada that caused the air in much of Minnesota to become hazy and simply dirty.
It is so easy to share our experience with the Brio Air Filter given how quickly and efficiently it removed pollen, dust, and smoke particles from the environment inside our home. Two people in our home who suffer from pollen-related allergies during the spring immediately experienced easier breathing and elimination of symptoms within the house. With respect to smoke particulates from Canada drifting into our environment, EVERYONE in our home experienced directly improved breathing and smell of the air when entering from outside.
An additional piece of information to account for is that we have always employed high grade furnace filters in our home’s central HVAC system. With that high grade filtration in place both prior to and after acquiring a Brio home air filter, we all quickly agreed that deploying the Brio in our home made an easily noticeable positive difference in breathing inside our home. Additionally, those of us who clean our home have observed that dust builds up slower on our floors and furniture than before we deployed the Brio unit.
We did note that the Brio is not as quiet as a few other brands/models on the market that we have tried in our home but the efficiency and quality of the filtration, along with the air turnover rate it provides,allows us to locate the Brio unit in central rooms away from the bedrooms. Since we made that change there has been no noise-related effect on our sleep, while the unit maintains the same level of air cleanliness throughout our home.
A last key point to make is how easy the Brio unit is to maintain. The simplicity of the modular construction of the Brio unit makes it very quick and easy to keep the filtration sections clean. We have not yet reached a point of filter replacement but it is obvious to us that the replacement will take a matter of seconds and can be executed by anyone in our home, including our 10-year-old son.

Bedroom machine
It seems to help reduce my allergy issues. We're glad we bought it. The only problem I had was not seeing any cubic footage recommendations in the online description when purchasing the unit. Bedrooms vary widely in size!!
