“One of the distinct differences between fresh country air and stale, city or indoor air, is the balance between positive and negative ions. The freshest air found near mountain streams, water falls, crashing surf, evergreen forests and anywhere after a rainstorm has the highest concentration of negative ions. The negative ions bind to positively charged air pollutants to remove them from the air. The Heaven Fresh Range of Air Purifiers generate millions of negative ions to simulate this natural cleaning process."

Energy Savings with the Easy-off Socket

Case Study:
John and his partner Anne retire to bed at 11pm and the majority of the households TV and games accessories are not used again until 6pm the following day when they return home from work.
This gives us the time between 11pm to 6pm (following day) that the following items are plugged in and not used and are using energy whether on stand by or not.

Total of 19 hours that units are using energy on a general tariff.

TV - 32” 300 Watts
Dvd player - 40 Watts
Game Console - 100 Watts
Sattelite TV box - 40 Watts
Total Watts used Daily = 0.48 Kilowatts

Results:
0.48 Kw x 19 hours x 365 days x .16 c/kWh = €532
Total Cost if all the items above were left switched on = €532 per year

Solution:
Easy-Off Control Socket (with footswitch) cost = €14.98... SAVING YEAR 1 = €517.02

The above case study is based on all of the items listed being left on for the entire time. So lets look at the option of them all being left on standby for the same time. Standby on average uses 25% of the full power.

Results:
0.12 Kw x 19 hours x 365 days .16c/kWh = €133
Total Cost if all left on standby as above = €133 per year.

Solution:
Easy-Off Control Socket (with footswitch) cost = €14.98... SAVING YEAR 1 = €118.02

Multiply the above savings by the fact that many houses now boast multiples of the items listed and add to that phone-chargers, portable games console-chargers, MP3 Players etc., and the savings gained by using a cut-off device become increasingly substantial.

How it works:
The standby control socket with footswitch is very simple to use, yet very effective in helping you cut your energy costs. Additionally this is a great product to make access easy to sockets that are hidden behind cabinets, under tables etc. No more excuses for not turning them off.

Just plug the socket into any normal electricity socket. If you wish to connect more than one appliance then connect any standard 2, 3, or 4 socket power extension block to the standby control socket. Place the footswitch in a convenient position so that you can access it easily.There is a 3 metre cable to make this easy.

To turn off the power to all the connected equipment simply press the footswitch.The power will be turned off completely. Press the footswitch again to restore power.
