Calabasas, CA -- August 13, 2021
-- InvestorsHub NewsWire -- KRONOS ADVANCED TECHNOLOGIES, INC.
(OTC
MARKETS: KNOS) ("KNOS" or the "Company"), innovation-driven
product development and production company that has significantly
changed the way air is moved, filtered, and sterilized, announced
today that the Company increased its inventory and will prioritize
shipping for all schools that are now preparing to return to
in-person classroom learning.
Centers for Disease Control (CDC)
had recently published new Guidance for COVID-19 Prevention in K-12
Schools. To review complete CDC recommendations for your school,
please visit: https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/community/schools-childcare/k-12-guidance.html
Key
Takeaways
- Students benefit from in-person
learning, and safely returning to in-person instruction in fall
2021 is a priority.
- Vaccination is the leading public
health prevention strategy to end the COVID-19 pandemic. Promoting
vaccination can help schools safely return to in-person learning as
well as extracurricular activities and sports.
- Due to the circulating and highly
contagious Delta variant, CDC recommends universal indoor masking
by all students (age two and older), staff, teachers, and visitors
to K-12 schools, regardless of vaccination
status.
- In addition to universal indoor
masking, CDC recommends schools maintain at least 3 feet of
physical distance between students within classrooms to reduce
transmission risk. When it is not possible to maintain a physical
distance of at least 3 feet, such as when schools cannot fully
re-open while maintaining these distances, it is especially
important to layer multiple other prevention strategies, such as
screening testing.
- Screening testing, ventilation,
handwashing, and respiratory etiquette, staying home when sick and
getting tested, contact tracing in combination with quarantine and
isolation, and cleaning and disinfection are also important layers
of prevention to keep schools safe.
- Students, teachers, and staff
should stay home when they have signs of any infectious illness and
be referred to their healthcare provider for testing and
care.
- Many schools serve children under
the age of 12 who are not eligible for vaccination at this time.
Therefore, this guidance emphasizes implementing layered prevention
strategies (e.g., using multiple prevention strategies together
consistently) to protect students, teachers, staff, visitors, and
other members of their households and support in-person
learning.
- Localities should monitor
community transmission, vaccination coverage, screening testing,
and occurrence of outbreaks to guide decisions on the level of
layered prevention strategies (e.g., physical distancing, screening
testing).
- Updated to recommend universal
indoor masking for all students, staff, teachers, and visitors to
K-12 schools, regardless of vaccination
status.
CDC also added a
recommendation for fully vaccinated people who have a known
exposure to someone with suspected or confirmed COVID-19 to be
tested 3-5 days after exposure, regardless of whether they have
symptoms.
Kronos offers preferred pricing
and monthly payment plans on all products that provide safe air to
schools and homes. The Company also donated air purifiers to
underfunded schools across the United States.
"In this time of uncertainty, I
worry about my students. Their whole world has been transformed
overnight. I pondered on what I can do, or say, to make them feel
better. I was over the moon excited when I received the email
informing me that I was fortunate enough to be a recipient of an
air purifier. I was overflowing with gratitude for the generous
hearts of many amazing individuals that care about the future of
our students. This is an uneasy time for everyone. However, because
of your wonderful support, I was able to provide my students with a
safe and healthy learning environment. I am truly grateful for your
passion for education. You are an absolutely amazing organization
and have made such a profound impact on my student's lives. One way
to enhance my classroom cleanliness is to provide healthy, clean
air. This air purifier will help minimize germs and help clean our
air so we can focus on learning. The purifier will provide a
cleaner environment and peace of mind to my students, so we can
focus on learning."-commented Amani M.- Teacher.
Kronos Advanced Technologies
recommends COVID-19 Prevention Strategies Most Important for Safe
In-Person Learning in K-12 Schools:
Schools are an important part of
the infrastructure of communities. They provide safe and supportive
learning environments for students that support social and
emotional development, provide access to critical services, and
improve life outcomes. They also employ people and enable parents,
guardians, and caregivers to work. Though COVID-19 outbreaks have
occurred in school settings, multiple studies have shown that
transmission rates within school settings, when multiple prevention
strategies are in place, are typically lower than – or similar to –
community transmission levels. CDC's science brief on Transmission
of SARS-CoV-2 in K-12 Schools and Early Care and Education Programs
summarizes evidence on COVID-19 among children and adolescents and
what is known about preventing transmission in Schools and Early
Care and Education
programs.
Kronos Advanced Technologies is offering a wide variety of uniquely
patented lines of smart air purifiers for indoor classroom use that
captures and removes 99.98% of all pollutants to the level of 14.6
nm, including smoke, bacteria, and viruses, but also does not
require any filter replacements, making our air purifiers the
lowest cost of ownership in the industry for comparable products.
This feature saves underfunded schools thousands of dollars every
year.
Another important concern
expressed by teaches was the level of noise from the air purifiers
in classrooms. Kronos Air purifiers optimized aerodynamic
design enables high-volume airflow.
Model 5 (the most popular in
classrooms) has a CADR of 220 CFM, which could circulate a 450 sq.
ft. room three times in an hour.
Kronos air purifiers are much
quieter compared to HEPA air purifiers. The noise level ranges from
22dB (sleep mode) to 57dB (turbo mode) and averages at 34dB, which
is half of traditional air purification systems. This is about as
quiet as a soft hum.
We also offer a personal air
purifier for outdoor activity -FIT AIR.
Kronos products for safer indoor
air quality include Model 3, Model 5, and Model 8 (also marketed as
Airdoge® products). The Company offers a unique air purifier, Tesla
Air, for car use.
MODEL 5 (MSRP $650): Ideal
for rooms of up to 1400sq. ft. can disinfect and purify air space
every hour (bedrooms, living rooms, etc.) This Model 5 is 26 (H) x
12 (L) x 12 (W) inches, weighs 28.9 pounds, and its power
consumption is only 20-60 W (110/240v).
MODEL 8 (MSRP $1,199) ON SALE
price $999.00: Ideal for large spaces up to 3000 sq. ft.
(businesses, hospitals, schools, universities, hotels, restaurants,
including residential spaces such as studio apartments, large
living rooms, and home offices.) The MODEL 8 is 30" (H) x 15" (W) x
15", weighs 43 pounds, and its power consumption is 110 W
(110/240v). The Model 8 may well be the highest CADR among all air
purifiers, including HEPA, and the lowest cost of
ownership.
Kronos also supplies advanced
US-manufactured face masks to protect students and teachers
nationwide.

About Kronos Advanced
Technologies, Inc.
The Company was initially founded
in 2002 and funded by the U.S. military to develop electrostatic
air movers. Eventually, the Company moved into the consumer air
purification business. It began operations as a product development
company that invented and significantly changed the way air is
moved, filtered, and sterilized. Historically, Kronos has focused
on developing, marketing, and selling the Company's proprietary air
movement and purification technology. Serving the Indoor Air
Quality (IAQ) market, Kronos technology uses state-of-the-art high
voltage patented processes without the use of traditional porous
HEPA filters. Kronos-based products move air silently, filter,
sterilize, and purify the air while dramatically reducing energy
consumption to half of a 60-watt light bulb. Kronos devices can be
variable in shape or size and, therefore, have the potential to be
scaled-down for air purification in cars or scaled-up in size for
industrial and hazardous gas destruction. The technology is
currently being implemented in multiple standalone products for
businesses, homes, and vehicles of all types -to move, sterilize
and filter air, including removing allergens down to 14.6
nanometers, passing through our patented technology -replacing
expensive outdated passive HEPA and other filtration type systems.
There are broad ranges of additional markets for standalone and
embedded Kronos CORE technology-based devices. Examples of
immediately addressable markets include schools, universities,
healthcare facilities, operating rooms, manufacturing clean rooms,
and the cabins of automobiles and commercial
aircraft.
Kronos published research about
the effectiveness of Kronos Patented technology on air disinfection
n (e.g., microorganism destruction) by demonstrating the high
efficacy of Kronos® Technology-based air purifiers in capturing and
destruction of various types of microorganisms (including Corona
Viruses) in different environmental settings back in 2008. Results
of this research showed that Electrostatic Air Filtration and
Purification systems based on Kronos technology demonstrated high
capturing and destruction efficiency for different types of
microorganisms, bacteria, and viruses, and can be successfully used
for disinfection of air in real word environmental settings,
including hospital facilities both with and without the presence of
people.
BusinessWeek called Kronos air
purifiers "VIRUS KILLER" in 2005.
Kronos is the first publicly
traded Company that accepts DOGE coin as a form of payment for its
products, as well as other cryptocurrencies.
Recently, the Company filed for a
provisional patent involving an innovative protective face mask
with antimicrobial and anti-cellphone radiation protection
features. The Company is planning to file additional patents to
improve its existing technology as well as enter into new market
segments but will continue to market air purifiers and other
consumer products. The Company is an exclusive distributor and
licensee of the latest generation of air purifiers based on the
Company's CORE technologies. The Company markets its products as
Airdog® and KRONOS® brands. All Kronos products come with Kronos
Promise ™ -Your Satisfaction is Guaranteed!
Company offices are located in Los
Angeles, California.
