The Main-Kinzig-Kreis has thus corrected Monday’s announcement that “the first devices will be set up this week”. Rather, the precise locations are to be determined and documented during these days.
The technical criteria had been defined in advance with external specialists and the experts from the Office for Health and Hazard Defense. This included, for example, the air flow rate, filtration technology, sound level and proper operation and maintenance.
The selected air purifiers work with a highly efficient fabric filter to remove airborne viruses from the air that is sucked in. Maintenance and servicing of the filter devices will then be coordinated directly by the contracted company, according to the district administration’s announcement.
