Everyone knows air pollution can be bad for you. Air pollution brings to mind smog in LA. They might imagine a crowded New York Street. But our children are exposed to an even greater threat. EPA studies show that the air inside can be 2 to 5 times worse than the air outside. In some cases it can be 100 times worse. Schools have a large number of students in them. Air quality is even worse with so many people in such a small place.
Where does the pollution come from?
Indoor air pollution in a school comes from a number of sources. Old carpeting and mold in HVAC vents can create indoor air pollution. The chemicals used to keep the building clean add to the air pollution load. Insecticides and cleaning products pollute the air with harmful VOCs. Radon can seep into a school from the ground below it. Some outside air works its way into the classrooms. Germs, viruses and bacteria are carried in by students and teachers alike. The sources are varied. Their amounts can change daily.
What is the Real Risk?
There is growing evidence that poor indoor air quality (IAQ) can negatively affect children. Low IAQ can lower verbal and motor skills. Dirty air in schools can create behavioral disabilities in children. Children exposed to mold are much more likely to develop asthma.
How often do schools have this problem? According to the US Government Accounting Office and US Department of Education some states report having substandard air quality in 24% of their schools. There is a 1 in 5 chance that your children are being exposed to real threats. These are threat to their health and learning.
Is there a solution?
We can do much to improve the air quality in our schools. Many school boards are researching for new solutions. The EPA is working to help more schools come compliant with the Clean Air Act. Some schools are investing as much as $6450 per classroom to clean the air.
RK Ventures Inc. of Racine Wisconsin has an offer to help with this clean air dilemma. We will allow any school to try one of our classroom air purifiers free for 30 days. To qualify, the school needs to have an established curriculum. It must be recognized as a learning center in the community. They have to complete a short agreement that outlining the terms of the trial.

Depending on the schools location, RK Ventures will either install or ship the air purifying system with installation instructions. There will be communications with the school via email and /or phone to be sure the unit is operating properly.

Will the LakeAir Classroom Air Purifier fix our issues?
We have tested the LakeAir Maxum in several classrooms. According to participants, school absenteeism was greatly reduced. The teaching and learning environment was enhanced. The classrooms smell cleaner. Teachers and students found the classroom a nicer place to be.
Example
One student was using a rescue inhaler 5 times a day before the Maxum was installed. On the first day with the new air purifier in the room, the rescue inhaler was only needed once. We have heard many stories like this from parents. Children in rooms with our air purifiers benefit from this program. The LakeAir Classroom Air Purifier will make a positive impact on the IAQ of your school.
