From those who know us best....

“To Heath Schuman:

I am writing this letter to help all fellow yacht captains and owners in dealing with a common problem we face onboard our vessels.   Specifically, the issue of fresh, clean air is a topic I know affects both crew and guests alike and I am happy to say a solution has been found and really works.  

The company is Schuman Nautic Air™ and works with your present air handler system to further clean and treat the re-circulated cabin supply.   The units measuring approx. 9’’ * 9” * 6” are professionally installed by a certified Nautic Air™ technician and work by creating  ‘Hydroxyl Radicals’ which decompose contaminants and neutralizes the odors found in the molecules, helping to eliminate all traces of scent from the air you breathe.

We onboard this fine Christensen yacht have enjoyed good health and odor free air for the past 3 months. We attribute the clean “fresh air” to our Nautic Air system.   The system is easily maintained with monthly inspections that take 5 minutes.   The equipment is silent while operational, is of sound construction with quality material and is small enough to fit in most overhead liners and wall space cavities designed for make-up air supply units.

All owners want their investments protected and the Schuman Nautic Air purification system assures you that the air they breathe today will be as clean and as odor-free as the day they first stepped onto their yacht”.

Sincerely and with best regards,

Michael Lovely, Captain, M/Y Lady Joy

“I recently had the privilege of performing pre and post-installation air quality tests on the My Lady Joy, a 157 ft custom ship in Fort Lauderdale, FL.    To my surprise, the mold count dropped to 0 after running the new Nautic Air system only a few hours.  I have been conducting mold testing for over five years and know that it is very rare in the mold industry to get "0" reading. This result even surprised the lab.  In fact, they called me and stated how impressive the results were and also stated that an operating room in a hospital often registers at 4 times this level.    I have told many of my friends about this new system and the results that were achieved.  I actually had to show them proof with the lab results - needless to say, they were amazed.   This system is worth its weight in gold”.

“Our 1987 Viking 48 MY has exhibited an odd smell since we purchased it in March 2007, and no matter what we tried, nothing seemed to solve the problem. That is until Nautic Air installed one of its new air filtration systems down below and now all the smells are gone. Every time I walk into the saloon I breathe deeply, thinking the smell will come back, but it has been some months now and I’m happy to tell you that the smell has disappeared. 

We’ve worked with Nautic Air for some months now, and I must tell you that we feel very comfortable dealing with them because Heath (Schuman) and his team do what they say they’re going to do, when they said they were going to do it, and at a quality level that exceeds our expectations. That is a hard combination to find these days when dealing with most service people. Keep up the great work!”

“Though we were intrigued to learn about Heath Schuman’s Nautic Air product, we had cause for skepticism. We had tried a number of portable air-purifying products, all of which were expensive and none of which worked! Why would Nautic Air be any different? We had our doubts.

But the more we talked to Heath about the Nautic Air device, the less skeptical we became. So we gave it a try. It’s the best add-on we’ve ever installed on our 2003 Cruiser Yachts 3772!!

We just committed to buying a new Tiara Sovran 5800 and I specified having Nautic Air units installed on our boat during its fitting out. I wouldn’t have it any other way – not now, not ever.”

“My wife is a nurse who is very much into the environment, especially with regard to air quality. She became concerned after we purchased a boat because at times the boat had the smell of mildew. Is there mold? Could a long weekend on the boat create a respiratory issue? We did some research and discovered the Nautic Air system would mitigate the potential problem.

A long weekend or weeks on end, the system works great. You know it’s working because you smell nothing and that’s the best smell to have on your boat.”

“I have been boating for over 15 years and have always had a problem with my allergies. Fridays would roll around which meant a trip to the boat and shortly after I arrived, my nose would get stuffy and my eyes would become itchy. My husband and I love boating so I just accepted my symptoms as the price of boating. When I heard about the Nautic Air system I was very excited. I have tried many other air filters and none seemed to work. I tried the Nautic Air system. I was so amazed when I went to the boat and didn’t get congested and didn’t need any medication. It was truly amazing. I would highly recommend this product to anyone that suffers from allergies. Thanks!”
