Volatile organic compounds, viruses, bacteria … The quality of indoor air in homes is a major public health issue. To meet this need, the French start-up Life 01 is innovating by combining a filtration system and a ceiling light.

[EN VIDÉO] Interview 1/5: air pollution is everywhere We are constantly faced with an invisible and insidious threat: air pollution. Philippe Hubert, director of chronic risks at Ineris (National Institute for the Industrial Environment and Risks), explains the causes and describes the air pollution standards.
Home, office … It is recognized that indoor air is between eight and ten times more polluted than outside. In order to eliminate the various pollutants (chemical or biological), Life 01 benefits from its experience in the field of air contamination within cutting-edge equipment, to design a new generation of air purifiersair connected which can be installed in place of a classic ceiling light.
Optimal air treatment
To purify stale air, this air purifier incorporates a cylindrical Hepa / activated carbon filter cartridge. A design capable (according to the manufacturer) of handling 100% of particles critical to health and whose size is less than ten nanometers. The stale air is sucked in from the top of the filter cartridge thanks to a turbine positioned inside the cylinder whose debit air is 100 m3/ h covers an area of 75 m2.
Connected to inform
Equipped with sensors operating continuously and in total autonomy, this air purifier is connected to a application mobile (iOs / Android). The latter allows users to constantly know the temperature of the room, its humidity level as well as the levels of fine particles, of VOC (volatile organic compounds), CO2.
Efficient lighting
On the finish side, the filter cartridge is concealed by perforated plates. Available in five colors (black, blue, honey, green, cream), they allow this purifying luminaire to be integrated into most homes and professional premises. On the lighting side, this luminaire has a 2.500 LED panel lumens, emitted by a large convex diffuser.
As a replacement for a classic ceiling light, the installation of this air purifier is very easy, despite a weight of 7.5 kg. Compatible with the requirements of RE2020, the performance of this air purifier can significantly reduce the viral load. However, it does not replace current health recommendations. It is therefore necessary to ventilate and conserve barrier gestures in front of the Covid-19.
What you must remember
- The HEPA / activated carbon filter cartridge is replaced every 2 years.
- The sensors operate continuously for optimal monitoring of air quality.
- The noise level of the turbine is 25 dB, which is the equivalent of a light noise.
