Why We Care About Clean Air

Our Story

When COVID-19 first began spreading, our founder, Michael Cole, started thinking about the air inside schools. As a father and husband, he wanted to find a way to help keep his wife, daughters, and other students safe and healthier as school was back in session.

He began looking into air purfication and researching different technologies that were not only backed by science, but were efficient, cost-effective, and quiet enough to actually use in a classroom.

That research led him to Smart Air. Michael was drawn to the company's straightforward approach to clean air and its focus on scientific testing and data. The more he learned, the more he believed there were the kind of air purifiers schools and families could benefit from.

What started as a search for a way to make schools safer eventually grew into something bigger, a commitment to making cleaner air more accessible to families, schools, and communities.

Our Company

Michael worked with Smart Air to introduce 120-volt versions of their air purifiers to the U.S. markets and to secure both UL and California Air Resource Board (CARB) certifications. Smarter HEPA is the exclusive U.S. distributor of Smart Air products.

Smart Air products were originally sold in the US with the brand name Smart Health but are now being sold branded with Smart Air. They are the same trusted and tested products and use the same filters.
