When mechanical engineer Daniel Shaw from Seattle began noticing his wife’s allergies worsening and his young son waking up congested every morning, he started asking the question most people overlook: What if the real problem is the air we breathe indoors?

Years of working on industrial-grade air systems had taught Daniel a lot about air purification—but what surprised him was how poor and overpriced consumer air purifiers were in comparison. That’s when he made a decision that would change his family's health—and eventually, thousands of others around the world.

In 2020, Daniel had just moved into a newly renovated home. It should have been exciting. But instead, it came with an unexpected problem—the air felt heavy and made everyone feel worse.

“My wife started having sinus flare-ups again, my son was coughing in the mornings, and no matter how much we cleaned, there was always dust,” Daniel recalled. “I realized—this wasn’t just about surfaces. The air itself was dirty.”

He tried buying several air purifiers on the market, but quickly became frustrated. They were either too expensive, too bulky, or barely worked. Worse, some made loud whirring sounds at night. As someone who had helped design air filtration systems for hospitals and labs, Daniel knew it could be done better—smarter, quieter, and more affordably.

Driven by his family's need, Daniel got to work. Using his background in mechanical engineering, he started designing a home air purifier that could deliver hospital-grade filtration using a triple-layer HEPA-13 system—just like the systems used in medical cleanrooms.

He wanted the purifier to go further than the average product. So he added UV-C technology to kill airborne bacteria and viruses, a real-time air quality sensor, and made it whisper-quiet, so families could sleep peacefully with it running.

The result? The first prototype of what is now known as the Sterra Moon Air Purifier.

Daniel named it “Sterra Moon” to reflect the clean, minimalist design and its ability to purify like moonlight—soft, quiet, but powerful.

“I wanted to build something that didn’t just sit in a corner and collect dust,” Daniel explains. “It had to be something people were proud to have in their homes. A purifier that actually worked, looked good, and didn’t cost a fortune.”

He tested it relentlessly in his own home. Within days, the difference was obvious—less dust, fewer allergy flare-ups, and clean, breathable air that even his skeptical friends noticed when they came over.

Daniel’s research revealed a hidden truth: wealthy homeowners often install complex air filtration systems that cost thousands of dollars, knowing how much indoor air quality affects long-term health.

“But the average family doesn’t have $5,000 to spend on built-in systems,” he says. “Sterra Moon brings that same level of protection, without the insane price tag.”

What began as a project to help his family has now become a mission. Today, Sterra Moon Air Purifier is helping thousands of homes across the world enjoy cleaner, healthier air—especially in urban areas where pollution, dust, and pet dander are everyday problems.

“Getting messages from people who say they’re finally sleeping well or don’t wake up congested anymore—that’s the best part of all this,” Daniel says. “I didn’t just build a product. I built a solution for families like mine.”
