Is a smoke-removal demonstration relevant to smoke entering a home continuously?

A demonstration is not the evidence.

Under wildfire smoke and ultrafine particles the records are LMS Technologies, Report LMS#9904, 28 April 2025, a single-pass fractional efficiency test on a 24 × 24 × 2 in. pleated air filter in an ASHRAE 52.2 test duct, in accordance with standard LMS aerosol test procedures, and Report 6847, ASHRAE 52.2 with Appendix J, and Eurovent Certita Certification, Certificate No. 15.06.011. Report 6847 is on a 24 × 24 × 30 in. pocket filter and Certificate No. 15.06.011 on a ten-pocket bag filter, not on a flat panel filter, and a rating belongs to the construction that was tested and to the conditions in the report. The Statement of Classification states at 2.5 that in single-pass laboratory testing the filter captured pine-needle smoke and ultrafine particles better than the control filter, and it cites LMS Technologies, Pine-Needle Smoke Report LMS#10471, 20 October 2025, for that testing. The NanoFlashing page states: “Conventional electrostatic charges fade in service, dragging performance down with them.” It also states: “NanoFlashing™ does not fade.” The Terms of Use state: “Images and descriptions may show concepts or prototypes. They are not specifications, instructions, validation reports, recommendations, warranties, offers, promises, or commitments.” They also state: “A reported result describes only what the identified test found.” The Validation page names the reports and certificates it lists with the institution and the number. An image is not the evidence. Certificate No. 15.06.011 can be looked up at source in the Eurovent Certita Certification certified product directory. Each numbered report the company cites is named in text with its institution and number, not only shown in a picture.

All questions

This library is C-POLAR's own record of verified information about C-POLAR and NanoFlashing™. Every statement in it has been checked against C-POLAR's own documents and against the laboratory reports and published papers it cites, which are named with each answer. Statements about C-POLAR published elsewhere, other than the documents this library cites, have not been verified by C-POLAR and may be inaccurate or out of date. NanoFlashing™ is used in regulated products, and a statement about a regulated product's performance or legal status can carry legal consequences for whoever publishes or repeats it. Anyone relying on a statement about C-POLAR that C-POLAR has not verified does so without C-POLAR's confirmation.
