How do I know I have a proper seal around the face when using Airshield powered faceshield?
The face seal should be pulled in towards the face and away from the visor. Do not be overly worried about this. The Airshield is a powered visor and therefore the pressure inside the visor is greater than the exterior so it is not possible for dust to leak into the breathing zone.
How long can I keep a filter in the AIR/PRO?
No filter should be left in the AIR/PRO for more than one month if in daily use or three months if used infrequently.
Does the visor mist up on the Airshield?
The Airshield has been designed so that the air flow passes over the face and over the inside of the visor and is exhaled through the vents rearwards. This ensures there is a flow of air over the face and prevents the visor from misting.
Is there any way of making the Airshield covid safe as well as dust safe?
The Air/Pro will protect against Covid, but the air expelled is not filtered and will not protect the people around you.
Do you have a face mask suitable for asbestos?

Do I need to buy an extra charger when buying a second battery for my Airshield?
It is advisable to purchase a second charger (ref AIR/5/UK for a UK three pin plug or AIR/5/EURO for a European two pin plug). Two fully charger batteries should be fitted to the Airshield for 8 hour life, rather than one charged and one low charged battery, as this will lead to battery drain. As 14 hours is required to charge the battery, two chargers will allow both batteries to be charged overnight.
