Polar Breeze® utilizes a cold air stream into the largest surface-area organ of the entire body- the lungs. Whileimmersion in ice-water can cool the 1.7 to 2.3 square meters (2.0-2.75 square yards) of the body surface area,the lungs offer a cooling area directly into the bloodstream of 30 to 70 square meters and up to 100 squaremeters in some athletes - that’s half the size of a tennis court!. Cooling the bloodstream cools the entire bodyfrom the inside out, head-to-toe! The greater the surface area, the faster this occurs!

Heat-Related Illnesses
The first day of summer returns in June each year, but depending on your location, the first reported cases of heat stroke and heat exhaustion have probably already occurred. Indoor or outdoor activities, in surroundings that are inherently hot, expose workers to environmental heat stress that may lead to severe illness or death.
Heat is the leading weather-related killer in the United States, even though most heat-related deaths are preventable. On average 30 workers per year die of heat stroke and thousands more become ill.
