ECOPROBIOTIC System EPS 365.

This is a unit that is installed near your HVAC system. It operates by sending probiotics thru the vents thruout the home.

By using our whole-home air purification system and other probiotic-driven products, you can safely and effectively reduce the number of allergens in your home. Through the power of probiotics, our all-natural products clean and deodorize in a way that’s safe for both your family, and the environment.

This product is sold thru Edge America Tech and 365 Home.

Before we purchase, we'd like some userfeedback - if you have one installed.

Thanks in advance.

Until I see a report from a known reliable source about the verified benefits, I would not go near this.

You can reduce the number of allergens in your home by:
1. not having any carpeting
2. keeping your house clean
3. changing HVAC filters as recommended by the manufacturer
4. keeping your HVAC system maintained as recommended by the manufacturer
5. using hypoallergenic pillows and linens
6. having no pets
7. never buying peanutbutter or strawberries or any nuts or nut butter
8. which allergens are you even talking about? Your house is LOADED with things that people can be allergic to, including the sponge you use to clean the counters.
9. don't ever open your windows or doors, ever, for any reason, ever. Many allergens are airborne and will infect the air you breathe before a pro-biotic ever has a chance to do anything.

Google “ ecopriobiotic house filter scam” and you will find a lot of BBB reviews that are not positive.

Yeah definitely snake oil. They don't list what bacteria they think is good for the environment, good in the air. They set you up to have to buy cartridges. I can't find one study on probiotics and allergens.

Save yourself some money and remove your filter, put the A/C on, and spray a can of Lysol into the air intake. And for probiotics, have some yogurt mixed with fresh berries for your daily breakfast.

It's crazy how there's bovine excrement "treatments" continue to take advantage off those desperately for relief from an illness.

The hook is Probiotics are considered dietary supplements, which don't require FDA approval before they are marketed.

Tesla Biohealing is another example, the "device" is a tin can of cement.

Tesla BioHealing & MedBed Centers | Biophotons - Life Force Energy

FDA issued a warning letter on that one.

I'm the OP. Thanks so much for your responses.

We did have concerns about this, and very thankful that we held off and asked for opinions here.

We decided to forego this - the technology (snake oil???) and effects is questionable - esp due to the cost. BTW, $3300.

Decided to get a HEPA air cleaner/purifier unit for a large room, bedroom. Specifically to provide clean filtered air for sleeping. Ordered one on Amazon...

Thx again folks.

Absolutely correct. And note that #10 is not, and will never be a "Eco probiotic system"

My favorite response to a complaint;

"The probiotics we offer is used in hospitals in Europe and also in many large farms in the United States. We have plenty of scientific case studies from universities that we would be happy to send you if you are willing to sign an NDA."
