DTX Home Air Purification System
In the Pacific Northwest, homes stay closed up for much of the year. Add wildfire smoke seasons, damp winters, and extended indoor living — and indoor air quality becomes more important than ever. The Respicaire DTX is a centrally installed purification system designed to treat the air that continuously circulates through your HVAC system.
FEATURES
- Triple Purification Process: UVGI, Carbon Matrix, and Photocatalytic Oxidation work together for complete air cleaning
- High-Output Twin-Tube UVC Lamps: Powerful germicidal light for pathogen reduction
- Enhanced Honeycomb Technology: Particularly effective at reducing odor-causing gases and VOCs
The DTX™ Advanced Air Purifier uses three distinct air purification processes working together to clean your indoor air. The system combines UVGI (Ultraviolet Germicidal Irradiation), Carbon Matrix technology, and Photocatalytic Oxidation (PCO) for comprehensive air treatment. The powerful germicidal UVC light operates with high-output twin-tube lamps that treat the air as it passes through your air handler. These lamps also provide surface treatment for evaporative coils in your HVAC system. The Carbon Matrix Cells absorb airborne odors and gases that tend to linger indoors, trapping cooking odors and household smells inside the carbon cells. The Photocatalytic Matrix Cells help break down VOCs (volatile organic compounds) that off-gas from electronics, plastics, and artificial materials in your home. The DTX is CARB-certified (Executive Order G-23-165) and UL 2998 validated for zero ozone output. In the manufacturer’s independent lab testing, its UV-C technology inactivated 99% of SARS-CoV-2 within seconds of exposure (real-world results vary). This is AN OZONE FREE SYSTEM.
Stage 1 – UVC Germicidal Light
Designed to help inactivate and neutralize airborne microorganisms.
Stage 2 – Photo-Catalytic Oxidation (PCO)
Titania media activated by UVC to help break down odors and VOCs.
Stage 3 – Catalytic Carbon Media
Designed to help adsorb VOCs, odors, and gases.
Benefits Designed for Health-Focused Homes:
- Treats the air every time it circulates through your HVAC system, all year
- Carbon matrix grabs cooking odors, pet smells and household odors
- Neutralizes volatile organic compounds (VOCs) that off-gas from plastics, furniture, and electronics
- The manufacturer recommends it for homes with allergies, asthma or other breathing sensitivities
- UV-C light also helps keep your AC coil clean
- Low maintenance: one UV-C lamp change a year
- CARB-certified and UL 2998 validated for zero ozone output
Included with your Respicaire DTX Air Purifier Installation:
• HVAC airflow and placement evaluation
• Clean, secure installation into ductwork
• Electrical connection and startup
• Optional maintenance reminder plan
Installed properly, the system operates quietly and seamlessly within your existing heating and cooling system.
Electronic Indoor Air Quality Test Emailed To You
We test your air for the following and discuss/email you a report:
Detects the presence of Volatile Organic Compounds (chemical pollution) commonly given off by interior building materials such as carpet, paint, upholstery, vinyl flooring, cleaning products, cosmetics, burning wood, etc.
Carbon Dioxide (CO2)
It uses an NDIR (Non-Dispersive Infrared) sensor to detect carbon dioxide (non-combustible gas) formed during respiration, organic decomposition, or combustion. CO2 may threaten humans if breathed in high enough concentrations.
Particulate Matter (PM2.5 & PM10)
Measures the amount of inhalable particulate matter that can penetrate the lungs and cause health problems. Examples include dust, pet dander, pollen, and other airborne substances less than 2.5 and 10 microns in size.
Temperature, Humidity, Dew Point and Pressure
Measures indoor air Temperature, Dew Point Temperature, Relative Humidity, and Building Pressure, any one or all
of which may adversely affect building occupants or the building itself.
Alpine BioGuard™ Indoor Health Treatment Included!

- In your ductwork we apply it by fogging as a cleaning and deodorizing step. The kill times above are the label results for hard surfaces.
Frequently Asked Questions
Understanding your air purifier’s capabilities helps you make the best decision for your family’s health and comfort.
- How does the DTX™ help minimize viruses like COVID-19? In the manufacturer’s independent lab testing, the DTX’s UV-C technology inactivated 99% of SARS-CoV-2 within seconds of exposure. Real-world results vary, and it is not a medical device. The UV-C light runs continuously as air circulates through your HVAC system.
- Is this air purifier safe for my family and pets? Yes, the DTX™ is CARB Certified and third-party verified for zero ozone output. It’s designed specifically for residential use, and the manufacturer recommends it for homes with allergies, asthma or other breathing sensitivities.
- How often do I need to replace the filters and lamps? The UVC lamps require annual replacement. Any other parts have a long lifespan and are checked by your HVAC contractors when needed.
- Will this help with cooking odors and pet smells in my home? Yes, it will! The Carbon Matrix Cells are designed to absorb and trap lingering odors, while the Enhanced Honeycomb technology is particularly effective at reducing odor-causing gases throughout your home.
- Can I install multiple units if I have a large home? Yes, each system will need at least one DTX. The DTX also features built-in tandem outlets for multiunit installation.
