Dometic (Marine Segment EMEA) is launching Breathe 4500 to the EMEA region - an innovative ioniser accessory that easily purifies the air onboard any vessel, providing a more comfortable and healthier onboard environment. Winner of the 2023 Top Products Award from Boating Industry Magazine, the Dometic Breathe 4500 also eliminates stale air and foul odours for more enjoyable boating experiences.
The Dometic Breathe 4500 is a quick and innovative way to add state-of-the-art air purification to any vessel. This affordable, easy-to-install and easy-to-use air conditioning/heating accessory will be available in the EMEA region from July 2023. It will also be presented at the Cannes Yachting Festival (PAN315) and Genoa International Boat Show (TD10).
The Dometic Breathe 4500 was developed to solve a common problem faced by boaters around the world. Time on the water is supposed to be about enjoying fresh air and sunshine outdoors, yet the air inside staterooms, salons, galleys and other interior spaces and compartments is often stale and unpleasant. Mould, mildew, and a host of other pollutants and allergens often create bad odours and impact the ability to fully enjoy time aboard.
Using positive and negatively charged ions, the Dometic Breathe 4500 reduces pathogens and mould spores by attacking their core structure. Both odours and Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) are reduced as ions break them down on a molecular level.
The new system also removes allergens and dust from the air. As ions in the air are attracted to particles, their size is increased. This allows them to be easily caught in the filters or causes them to fall out of the air.
This is a simpler, less expensive alternative to air purifiers using traditional technology like HEPA Filters and UV light. The Dometic Breathe 4500 is also easier to add to existing climate control systems aboard today's boats.
The Dometic Breathe 4500 is designed as an easy and universal addition to a wide range of Dometic climate control systems. Boaters just need to drill holes anywhere in the airflow path, push in the brush grommets and route power to the unit — and they are ready to Breathe purified, odour-free air.
Eric Fetchko, President of the Marine Segment at Dometic, said: "We are pleased to bring this innovative air purification product to the EMEA marine market. The Dometic Breathe 4500 provides boaters with an easy to install upgrade kit that uses state-of-the-art ionisation technology to reduce dust particles, bacteria, mould build-up and unpleasant odours, making for a more enjoyable onboard experience.
"We are delighted that this innovative product will be available in EMEA from July and will be showcased on the Dometic (Marine Segment EMEA) stand at the Cannes Yachting Festival - an ideal opportunity for boaters to learn more about this must-need air conditioning kit."
