New Jersey schools are now eligible to apply for a grant to address critical operational building needs – which includes the purchase of air purifiers to improve indoor air quality for students, staff, and teachers. While the state is now accepting applications, some districts are frustrated because they feel it is too late to make such capital projects. BUT IT’S NOT TOO LATE for air purifiers!

Here are four reasons to choose Austin Air:

1.) We Are America’s Air Purifier!

All our products are hand-crafted in the USA and shipped from our factory in Buffalo, NY. This ensures fast and efficient delivery of high-quality American products – without the supply chain delays that can occur when ordering products manufactured overseas.

2.) We Use Technology Recommended By The CDC, The EPA, And The WHO

If you’re going to use government funding to purchase air purifiers, it’s important to use technology recommended by government agencies (namely the CDC, WHO, and EPA). These agencies recommend a combination of true Certified HEPA Material and activated carbon. Austin Air purifiers use more medical grade Certified HEPA Material, activated carbon, and zeolite than anyone else to remove up to 99.97% of airborne contaminants, including viruses, bacteria, allergens, chemicals and VOCs.

3.) We Are the Only Clinically-Proven Air Purifier!

Austin Air is the only air cleaner company to conduct clinical trials on its products. We’ve worked with renowned research organizations such as Cincinnati Children’s Hospital, the American Academy of Pediatrics, Johns Hopkins University, and others.

4.) We Have Air Clean Air Counselors to Help with Funding!

To help you navigate the funding process, our team of experienced Clean Air Counselors are on hand ready to help. You can contact us HERE or call us at (800) 724-8403.

The application deadline is May 1, 2023. After the state Education Department reviews and approves applications, the Schools Development Authority (SDA) will award grants.
