The ♻ BREATHE V1 ♻ Exhalation Valve is the ORIGINAL Re-Usable Exhalation Valve for respirator masks.  It can be retrofitted to most commercial N95 masks, surgical masks, and even homemade cloth masks.

What is an exhalation valve?  It's a one-way valve that allows exhaled air to escape through a clear pathway and prevents inhaled air completely by closing it off.  It effectively increases the lifespan of any non-valve equipped respirator mask by dissipating humidity and heat due to exhaled carbon dioxide build-up.  The heat and humidity reduction also improves user comfort during the course of breathing.

♻ BREATHE V1 ♻ improves upon the traditional exhalation valve design by adding seamless removal and re-attachment.  This allows it to be attached to any non-valve equipped N95 mask.  Traditional N95 masks with built-in exhalation valves do not have an easy means of removal without compromising the valve itself.  They are either sewn into the fabric, glued between fabric layers, or clipped very tightly such that removal may cause cracking/shattering of the valve.  In addition to the benefits mentioned above about re-usability, there is the reduced cost to consumers over time (due to the increased mask lifespan) as well as a reduction in environmental waste from exhalation valves that are thrown away.
