The Cimatec Model 1010 cleans your home’s air by using an invisible magnetic-like field that pulls dust, allergens, and other tiny particles out of the airflow as it moves through your HVAC system.

Instead of relying on thick material that can slow air down, the filter attracts and traps these particles while letting clean air flow easily through your system.

This means your heating and cooling can run more smoothly, your air stays cleaner, and the filter continues to perform consistently over time without putting extra strain on your equipment.

The Cimatec Model 1010 installs in the same place as a standard 1″ furnace filter. If your home already uses a traditional 1″ filter in the furnace or air handler, the Model 1010 is designed to replace it directly, no changes to your system are required. Once installed, it works with your existing HVAC system to clean the air as it circulates throughout your entire home.

Unlike portable air purifiers that only clean the air in a single room, the Model 1010 treats the air at the source. This means cleaner air is delivered to every room connected to your HVAC system, providing whole-home protection instead of spot coverage.

Yes. Even when your air seems clean, most indoor air contains microscopic particles that are invisible and easily missed. In fact, over 90% of airborne particles are micro-particulates, so small that traditional furnace filters are not designed to capture them effectively. These particles can quietly circulate through your home every day!

While the effects aren’t always noticeable right away, you can notice poor indoor air quality can show up over time as things like eye, nose, or throat irritation, headaches, fatigue, or difficulty concentrating.

Beyond cleaner air, the Model 1010 also delivers practical benefits homeowners care about. Its low-resistance design allows air to flow more freely through your HVAC system, which can help reduce strain on your furnace, support efficient heating and cooling, and contribute to lower energy use over time. Maintenance is simple as well (no frequent filter replacements or bulky units to manage) making it an easy, set-and-forget upgrade for whole-home comfort and efficiency.

Traditional furnace filters were originally designed to protect HVAC equipment from dust buildup... not to fully clean the air you breathe. Because of this, they struggle to capture the smallest airborne particles, which make up the majority of indoor air pollution.

Portable air purifiers can help in individual rooms, but they only treat the air where they’re placed and don’t address air circulating through your entire home.

The Model 1010 is a new generation of whole-home filtration designed with people and performance in mind. It actively captures microscopic particles (fine dust, allergens, mold spores, and certain airborne pollutants) that traditional filters often miss, while allowing air to flow freely through your system. This helps protect your home’s air quality without restricting airflow, reducing strain on your HVAC system, and avoiding the ongoing maintenance and clutter of multiple portable units.

The result is cleaner air throughout your entire home, delivered efficiently and consistently.

Yes. The Cimatec Model 1010 has been independently tested by third-party laboratories and proven to effectively remove microscopic particles from the air, including fine particulate matter, certain VOCs, and mold spores.

Testing also confirms that the Model 1010 delivers performance comparable to HEPA-grade filtration while operating as a whole-home system.

In addition, the Cimatec Model 1010 has been verified to produce zero ozone, making it safe for continuous use in residential environments.

Micro-particulates are present in every home, even in spaces that look clean and well maintained. They’re made up of everyday materials like skin flakes, pet dander, dust mite debris, fabric fibers, pollen, mold spores, and tiny particles released from building materials. Common household activities such as cooking, burning candles, using air fresheners, smoking, or even vacuuming with low-quality filters can add more of these microscopic particles into the air.

Because micro-particulates are so small, you can’t usually see them! And traditional furnace filters aren’t designed to capture them effectively, allowing them to circulate throughout your home. Advanced filtration systems like HEPA filters and the Cimatec Model 1010 have been shown to be highly effective at removing these fine particles from the air, helping reduce what’s continuously recirculated through your living space.

Yes. The Cimatec Model 1010 uses filter media made with conductive carbon, which helps capture and reduce common household odors as well as certain VOCs (volatile organic compounds). Independent testing has shown that the Model 1010 can reduce VOC levels by up to 46% within 48 hours of operation.

Homeowners often notice improvements with everyday odors such as cooking smells, fresh paint, pet odors, and smoke. Because the Cimatec Model 1010 works through your HVAC system, it helps address odors throughout the entire home, rather than masking them or treating just one room.

For many people, allergy symptoms are triggered by airborne particles such as fine dust, pollen, pet dander, mold spores, and certain household pollutants. If your symptoms are linked to these types of irritants, the Cimatec Model 1010 may help by improving the overall air quality in your home.

By actively capturing microscopic particles that traditional furnace filters often miss, the Cimatec Model 1010 reduces what continues to circulate through your HVAC system and living spaces. While results can vary from person to person, many homeowners notice a difference as their air becomes cleaner and more consistent throughout the home.

The Cimatec Model 1010 is designed to fit anywhere a standard 1″ furnace filter is used. It’s built to the same dimensions as traditional filters, allowing for a simple drop-in replacement- no tools, no retrofits, and no changes to your HVAC system required. The Model 1010 is compatible with all common residential HVAC system types.

If for any reason the Model 1010 doesn’t fit your furnace or return grille, just reach out to us. We’ll work with you to make it right.

Yes. During renovations, activities like cutting drywall, sanding, and sawing release large amounts of fine dust and airborne particles into your home. The Cimatec Model 1010 helps capture these microscopic particles as they circulate through your HVAC system, reducing how much dust remains suspended in the air and settles on surfaces.

By removing more airborne dust, the Cimatec Model 1010 can also help limit how much dust spreads from room to room, which may reduce cleanup time and ongoing dusting during and after your renovat

The easiest way to find the correct size is to check your existing furnace filter. Its dimensions are usually printed directly on the frame. Simply match that size when selecting your Cimatec Model 1010.

No. The Cimatec Model 1010 is very easy to install and requires no tools or professional help. Simply remove your existing 1″ furnace filter from the filter slot or return grille, slide the Model 1010 into its place, and connect power using a nearby electrical outlet or a power drop from your HVAC system. Once powered, the system is ready to run.

The Cimatec Model 1010 uses a very small amount of electricity (just 2 watts) and can be powered in one of two simple ways. It can plug directly into a nearby standard wall outlet, or it can be connected to a low-voltage power drop from your HVAC system, depending on your setup.

Because the power requirement is so minimal, the Model 1010 runs continuously without noticeably impacting your energy use or utility bills. Once connected, it operates automatically whenever your system is running, with no switches, settings, or ongoing adjustments required.

Cimatec Model 1010 replacement filter pads typically last between 3–6 months, depending on factors like home size, pets, renovations, and overall air quality. This is roughly twice the lifespan of many traditional pleated furnace filters.

It’s also normal for your first replacement pad to become dirty faster than the ones that follow. This initial pad is capturing built-up microscopic particles that have been circulating in your home over time. Once that baseline is cleared, most homeowners find that subsequent pads last closer to the longer end of the replacement range.

No. The Cimatec Model 1010 does not use ionization. It uses a polarizing technology, which works in a very different way. Instead of releasing ions into the air, the Model 1010 creates a controlled field inside the filter that attracts and captures airborne particles as air flows through your HVAC system.

Because it does not rely on ionization, the Cimatec Model 1010 does not produce ozone or free radicals, making it safe for continuous use in residential environments.

No. The Cimatec Model 1010 does not produce harmful levels of ozone. It has been tested and is in compliance with (and exceeds) all applicable FDA safety standards. Because the Model 1010 does not rely on ionization or ozone-generating technologies, it is safe for continuous use in residential homes.
