Probiotics are naturally occurring organisms found in nature and within your body and are defined as beneficial bacteria that within your body contribute to a person’s overall well being by controlling up to 80% of our immune system. A diverse microflora of bacteria within ones intestinal system is critical to a healthy immune system. They are commonly found in foods such as yogurts, fermented vegetables and are consumed daily as dietary supplements.

betterair's patented technology repetitively releases microscopic sized Environmental Probiotics known as Bacillus ferment. Billions of micron-sized probiotics form a protective layer of microflora which coat and shield surfaces and objects, resulting in a healthy microbiome. betterair's Environmental Probiotics also consume inanimate organic matter such as pollen, cockroach matter and dust mite matter, creating an environment that is abundant in good positive beneficial bacteria.

The probiotic mist that is dispersed by the Biotica800® is microscopic so you cannot normally see it. When the manual (snowflake) dispersion button is pushed you should feel and hear the high pressure pump cycling. We have also included a test procedure with your Biotica800® insure that your unit is dispersing the environmental probiotics. Please follow the following steps to administer the test. Biotica800® Test Paper is a blue colored paper strip that senses the presence of humidity and turns light pink/white when exposed. It tests the dispersion of the Biotica800’s Environmental Probiotics which use water from the sea of Galilee as a suspension agent. When the test strip is placed over the dispersion vent of the Biotica800® and the manual (snowflake) button is activated you will see the paper turn pinkish or white. All that needs to happen is a slight color change. It makes no difference if the color change is slight or more pronounced as either indicates the probiotics are being dispersed properly. 1. Follow the set up instructions for your Biotica 800 contained in the owner’s manual. 2. After the Biotica800® has finished its initial cycling remove the probiotic cartridge cover. 3. Place a single blue strip of BetterAir Test Paper over the dispersion vent ( where the Environmental Probiotics are dispersed). 4. Push the manual (snowflake) button to cycle the Biotica800®. You should feel the high pressure pump cycling and hear a faint cycling noise. 5. Carefully observe the betteair test paper and confirm the paper covering the dispersion vent has changed color…….the color change can be slight or more pronounced , but any color change indicates the Biotica800® is working properly. If the betterair Test Paper does not display a color change please remove your Probiotic cartridge and reinsert to insure there is a tight seal. If there is no color change upon retesting the unit please contact customer service and they will go over additional steps or authorize a cartridge or Biotica800® replacement.

A UV light purification system may destroy some of the probiotics that get drawn into the UV light as it kills everything…. good bacteria and bad. Most probiotics will land on indoor surfaces and won’t be affected by the UV light purifier. In order to get the most out of your betterair purifier, DO NOT position it near the UV light purification system.

The light on the power converter is normally lit solidly….if it is blinking then please contact customer service as your unit needs replacing.

Under normal operating circumstances the cartridge will last 3 months or 90 days. The cartridge can empty more quickly with the continued use of the manual dispersion (snowflake) button.

You should change the Enviro-Biotic® cartridge every three months or when it is empty. You can check the cartridge fluid level visually or the Biotica800® will have a higher volume cycling sound when the cartridge is empty vs when the cartridge has Enviro-Biotic® solution in it.
