FAQs
Why should I buy this product over a competitor’s device?
AirShield’s unique design is the only device of its kind to offer a cordless, lighted, view-window barrier between you and your patient while quietly clearing aerosols and debris over a large 9” x 11” area directly over the patient. Every other device on the market is essentially a glorified Shop-Vac. Their ‘suction-only’ design is difficult, if not impossible, to keep it at a workable distance (about 2-3”) without rendering the device ineffective. AirShield ‘pushes and pulls’ air while providing an unimpeded work area directly over the patient with an amazing amount of shadowless light from all sides of the view window.
How does AirShield work?
Air is pushed out to the end of the AirShield arm, then a thin sheet of air is directed back under the curved window. On the other side of the window, a vacuum slot pulls the sheet of air, including all aerosols and debris, down through the arm and into the pedestal base where two medical grade HEPA filters clean the air.

Is AirShield easy to operate?
