HealthWay Home Products

What HealthWay Home Products does

HealthWay Home Products, Inc. is a privately held US air-purification manufacturer founded in 1980 and headquartered in Pulaski, New York, with 101–250 employees. The company designs, builds, and distributes portable and whole-home air purification systems built around its proprietary Disinfecting Filtration System (DFS) — an electronically enhanced, multi-stage filtration architecture that third-party testing (Intertek, EN 1822) shows captures 99.99% of particles down to 0.007 microns and eliminates 99.987% of a SARS-CoV-2 proxy virus within 10 minutes. The product portfolio spans three portable units (HealthWay Pro up to 500 sq ft, Deluxe up to 1,200 sq ft, and the newly launched ZeroAir MAX500 up to 1,650 sq ft), whole-home filters (Home Defender MERV-13+Carbon, Home Defender MERV-16, and the DFS-based SuperV), and a proprietary replacement-filter line anchored by the Micropleat media design.

HealthWay operates a hybrid go-to-market: a professional partner network of water-treatment professionals, HVAC companies, and in-home service providers serves as the primary distribution channel for whole-home and commercial-grade products, while direct-to-consumer sales run through the Intellipure by HealthWay sub-brand on Intellipure.com. Revenue derives from hardware sales (one-time purchases with multi-year warranties) plus a growing recurring stream from filter subscriptions with automatic delivery. Named reference customers include Syracuse City School District (classroom deployments) and CNY Fertility (healthcare/IVF clinics), and the company ships across the United States and Canada. The company is led by CEO Daniel Phalen, has no disclosed institutional investors or parent entity, and operates as an independent specialty manufacturer competing against larger consumer air purifier brands on technical filtration performance rather than price or brand marketing.
