Braun ThermoScan 5
A Unique Pre-Warmed Tip
Unlike other ear thermometers Braun ThermoScan ExacTemp features a patented pre-warmed tip It minimizes the cooling effect that could result from the insertion of a cool probe tip The pre-warmed tip helps ensure accuracy time after time. Conventional tip at room temperature has a cooling effect on the ear canal This cool-down effect can result in an inaccurate temperature reading shown on the display A cooler temperature in the ear canal could also affect the accuracy of repeated measurements
The Guidance System
The Guidance System checks the position of the thermometer in the ear and confirms the accuracy of the measurement. The probe of the thermometer has to fit securely into the ear canal during the complete measuring process before a long beep signals the end of the temperature reading
A light provides additional accuracy It flashes during the measuring process as long as the probe is securely positioned and lights up continuously once an accurate reading has been taken If the probe has not been placed correctly in the ear canal it will be indicated by the Guidance system
Honeywell AirGenius 5
The Honeywell AirGenius 5 Air Cleaner/Odour Reducer with Allergen and Germ Reduction Settings offers outstanding air cleaning performance with Touch Controls that do the Thinking for You.
Featuring the patented QuietClean® ifD® advanced filtration technology, this air cleaner combines some of the best features and technology available into one really smart air cleaner. Capturing 99.9% of particles, both the ones you can see AND the really small microscopic ones you can’t see, it circulates the air in a large room (up to 250 sq. ft)¹.
The smart controls are unique, helping to take the guesswork out of how to most effectively clean the air in your home. Offering 5 air cleaning levels and easy-tap touch sensitive controls, you can choose from SLEEP (almost silent operation), GERM (for cold & flu season), GENERAL Cleaning, ALLERGEN (for peak allergen season) or MAX Cleaning Power, depending on your air cleaning needs.
You’ll be surprised at how quietly the unit operates, especially considering it is certified to clean such a large room. The honeycomb style filter doesn’t resist airflow like paper filters do, allowing quieter operation.

(Chronic Fatigue Syndrome). Plus, the caregiver has twin 9 mo girls so it seems someone almost always has a cough, cold, flu or temperature.
