We don't ask you to take our word for it. Surgically Clean Air systems are tested by independent laboratories, evaluated by clinical professionals, and certified by leading regulatory bodies across North America. This is the proof behind 55,000+ healthcare installations.
The Clinicians Report is the original and only independent dental product testing organization funded exclusively by practitioners—not manufacturers. Since 1976, CR has tested over 750 product brands annually with 450+ clinical evaluators in 19 countries. Their evaluation of Surgically Clean Air systems represents the gold standard in unbiased professional validation.
"Well-received air purifiers improve operatory air quality and reduce dental office odors."
— Clinicians Report Evaluation
The Clinicians Report (CR) is the original independent dental product testing organization, founded by Dr. Gordon J. Christensen in 1976. CR is funded exclusively by dental practitioners—not manufacturers—ensuring unbiased evaluations. Over 450 clinical evaluators in 19 countries test more than 750 product brands annually. CR's evaluation of Surgically Clean Air systems resulted in a 91% approval rating.
Surgically Clean Air products hold UL (Underwriters Laboratories) listing, ETL (Intertek) certification, CSA (Canadian Standards Association) approval, CARB (California Air Resources Board) compliance, and CE marking for European markets. These certifications verify electrical safety, performance claims, and compliance with air quality regulations.
This means our HEPA-Rx filters capture 99.99% of particles as small as 0.1 microns (one ten-thousandth of a millimeter). For context, standard HEPA filters are rated at 0.3 microns. At 0.1 microns, we capture ultrafine particles including virus-carrying aerosols, bacteria, and the smallest allergen fragments that pass through standard HEPA filters.
Air changes per hour (ACH) depends on room size and unit model. In a standard 10×10×9 foot operatory (900 cubic feet), the COBALT® 2×2 ceiling unit delivers approximately 28 air changes per hour. The portable JADE® 2.0 delivers 6+ ACH in rooms up to 850 square feet. ASHRAE recommends 6 ACH minimum for spaces with elevated infection risk.
Yes. In addition to Clinicians Report clinical evaluation, Surgically Clean Air products undergo testing by UL (electrical safety), Intertek/ETL (performance verification), and CARB (ozone emissions compliance). Filter efficiency is independently tested to verify 99.99% capture rates. All certifications and test reports are available upon request.
We can provide complete test reports, certification documents, and technical specifications for your evaluation.
