This is a much cheaper option that works well: GermGuardian

If you smoke next to it, no smell.

u/ChildrnoftheCrnSyrup · 148 pointsr/HomeImprovement

We have an air purifier in the bedroom that makes the perfect amount of white noise, all while cleaning our air while we sleep. I’ll never go back.

"when the door is closed there is an airtight seal all the way around" This. I had basically the same problem of neighbor smoke in my apartment. I used a combination of an airtight door seal, in my case a hippy curtain hung over the door, and an indoor air filter. Doing this basically eliminates the smoke odor, and if the filter is off and I smell smoke I turn the filter up or down accordingly. There are fancier air purifiers on the market that do a better job with smoke, but the honewell has a true HEPA filter and a carbon pre-filter which do a good job with no ozone.

Neighbors who smoke inside suck big time. If you live in an apartment and you smoke inside, your neighbors hate you, please stop, kthxbye.

> There are also white noise machines that can help drown out noise...or sleeping with a fan blowing on your face can function the same way.

This. Go get a loud air filter. This is by far the easiest solution.

We have several of these we've been lucky enough to find at Goodwill. They are awesome. You'll only need one for noise. Put it right next to your bed.

u/macbooklover91 · 18 pointsr/onebag

A lot depends on the style you're looking for. I'll also say that security in a bag is a myth. There are things to discourage certain behavior, but ultimately a bag should never be seen as a secure container. (after all it can always be cut)

What I chose.

I traveled for about a month in Europe staying in hostels. Even though it was only a month I could have traveled for about a year (adding only a tablet) with the bag/things I brought.

Osprey Farpoint 40 Travel Backpack - $150 (Discontinued)

[Osprey Farpoint 40 Travel Backpack

  • $160 (New Version)](https://smile.amazon.com/Osprey-Farpoint-40-Travel-Backpack/dp/B014EBM3KA/)

    I love this bag but it might not be the single best option for you. It's low profile, turns into a duffle bag (more about that later) and although it doesn't look like a school backpack, it doesn't standout like this either.

    The reason I love that it turns into a duffle bag is because theres a semi hidden velcro pocket in the bottom where the cover rolls into. This is a great place to sew or velcro a small zippered wallet or bag to store extra money or valuables. It's not secure as much as its hidden. This won't help you if they steal the whole bag, but it will help you if they just ransack the place and steal from the open compartments.


    Other Options

    There are a ton of other options. I suggest watching the VagaBrothers Video - How to Choose the BEST Travel BACKPACK | Pros & Cons Minimalist Backpack Review and Travel Tips: Packing Hacks, Tips & Essentials


    The F Stop bags look great, but are pretty pricy. Depending on what lenses you're bringing (18-55mm kit lens VS 70-200mm VR f2.8) it may or may not be worth it for size and configurability. I personally bought a Sony a6000 and left my big DSLR at home. That was actually a really good choice for the type of trip I did, but if I was going for a year (like you are) I understand needing the big camera. You might want to get camera/lens inserts like this (but not necessarily that one, I just clicked on the first one I saw on amazon) to store and protect those other lenses.

    Hope that helps.


    The following is copy and pasted from an email I sent to family friends traveling abroad. It gives links and ideas for things that help when traveling minimally.




    ----------

  • 2 Mini cologne bottles - Well worth it if you are doing carry on only, or if you like to bring more than one scent with you. Depending on how much you use I find that a bottle filled up lasts about 1.5-2 weeks if you are using 2-3 sprays a day. http://smile.amazon.com/MagnaKoys%C2%AE-Perfume-Cologne-Sprayers-Overcaps/dp/B00UKHLBEW

  • World power adapter - http://smile.amazon.com/elago%C2%AE-Tripshell-TRAVEL-ADAPTER-Built/dp/B005AF0C2G Awesome adapter. A lot nicer than the 50 mini adapters you have to piece together like legos.

  • Power strip - https://smile.amazon.com/Monster-MP-OTG400-BK-Outlets/dp/B000F9YN2M I never used this. I wouldn't get it unless you knew you needed it. They are good ways to make friends at airports though, as plugs are always in high demand and few people will say no to letting you free up a plug or two.

  • Battery pack - (updated version) https://smile.amazon.com/Anker-PowerCore-20100-Capacity-Technology/dp/B00X5RV14Y/ OR https://smile.amazon.com/dp/B00Z9QVE4Q While there are cheaper and smaller ones, this is the perfect size and capacity if you are bringing a couple or more devices. This will charge a phone many times over. It's especially handy if you want to leave it charging in the hotel then bring it with you during the day after it's charged.

  • Compressed charcoal deodorizers - http://smile.amazon.com/Moso-Natural-Purifying-Deodorizer-Eliminator/dp/B0099K6OVQ Great to throw in shoes or bags that start to get smelly. Useful in hostels.

  • Microfiber towel - http://smile.amazon.com/Sunland-Microfiber-Compact-Sports-Towels/dp/B00MGGYZVG Very useful for hostels as most will charge you to use towels

  • Tripod - http://smile.amazon.com/dp/B00D76RNLS/ paired with a phone mount (https://smile.amazon.com/AUKEY-Samsung-Smartphones-Adapter-Monopod/dp/B01LYN73TQ) this can be used to hold the phone on long flights. Really nice for watching movies on the plane or waiting for a train.

  • Roll up 1L water bottles - http://smile.amazon.com/dp/B00BI9AM3C/ Great for airplanes (no longer need to buy water after TSA).

  • I packed all of my clothes into cubes and a flat packer. http://smile.amazon.com/Eagle-Creek-Pack-It-Starter-Set/dp/B00F9S84D8

    Security:

    Since I was traveling alone, and in hostels, security was a slightly bigger deal for me. I carried my passport on my person or locked in my hostel (many had lockers or metal lock boxes).

    At all times I had a photo copy of my passport and everything in my wallet, some local currency, and a print out of all the embassies in the area. (Attached to this email.) I printed this double sided and had multiple copies with me.
    I told my mom, "At any time I want to be able to have everything stolen, but still have a way back home.” My credit card will do cash transfers internationally and also includes a continuous travel insurance package.

    I would highly suggest making three copies of your passport and all credit cards and other ID you are taking. One lives on your person when your passport is stored elsewhere (hotel, for example), one lives in your luggage (preferably hidden/tucked away), and one stays with a trusted friend or family member that will be in the States for the duration of your trip. If anything happens they will be able to assist with proving your identity to the State Department, thus speeding the process along. I suggest keeping some cash tucked in your passport (along with that embassy list), your copy of the passport in the luggage, and then the copy of the passport and embassy list in your wallet. At this point you have three possibilities of things to grab to prove your identity/pay for a cab/tell you where to go.

    While this may seem a little overboard, I find it doesn't take that long to set up and helps greatly should anything bad happen. Also consider registering with the State Department. This helps them track Americans abroad should anything happen, and also gives you alerts, should anything happen. https://step.state.gov/step/

    Tech Tips

    I also used a service called Line2 to give me a US phone number to call from and receive calls to while I was away. I have T-Mobile that gives me included unlimited international data. As long as I had a 4g signal, I also had a phone I could make and receive calls on. Google Voice and Skype would also do this. Do be aware of how much international data costs. Wifi is easy to find, but I suggest using a VPN on your phone or laptop for any web surfing. And even with the VPN I would not suggest logging into any financial (bank, etc) while abroad unless you are on a trusted wifi network (aka, friends).

    For maps you can download parts of Google Maps by searching the city and clicking “Download." This should work on Android and iOS versions of Google Maps.

u/5yearsago · 16 pointsr/SeattleWA

They need to be able to filter wood smoke, which is unfortunately one of the smaller particles (1 micrometer), so the filter needs to be super dense. It needs to be at least MERV rating 17.

I don't think you can buy MERV 17 right away. It's typically achieved by two-stage filtration. There are some MERV 14 filters, like this one https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00TUDHBWS/ref=cm_sw_em_r_mt_dp_U_ZM10CbKXP458M

It's better than nothing, but it wont reliably filter all wooden smoke particles.



If you're susceptible to smoke (allergies or something), buy a standalone filter unit with HEPA filter (and carbon prefilter for odors). Typical HEPA is MERV 18-20+, but you cant put HEPA into the typical AC unit. Like this one - https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01D8DAYII/ref=cm_sw_em_r_mt_dp_U_8U10Cb3QSG2QB

u/stoavio · 14 pointsr/AskMen

This can be dealt with.

Here are a few options to consider. First, Zinc will help with the stink. You can take a Zinc supplement AND use a topical ointment on your feet. If you decide to take a Zinc supplement, don't take it everyday and be mindful of your copper levels. OptiZinc has copper included although you want to supplement even a little more. The ideal zinc-to-copper ratio is 10:1.

  • Boudreaux's Butt Paste Maximum Strength Diaper Cream

    This works very well because it contains 40% Zinc. One of the highest you can find. I've used this on my feet with success and I've even used it on my face before to help with complexion issues and it never dried me out. I think using daily on your feet would be fine although I wouldn't recommend putting it on your face every day. You can find this in Walmart in the baby isle (where the Pedialyte is located). Start with a small amount and rub it in. A little goes a long way with this stuff, you don't want your feet feeling greasy all day.

  • Crystal Body Deodorant Stick Deodorant

    I bought this because I was looking for safer deodorant options. I was amazed at how well it worked on my armpits (much better than traditional deodorants containing aluminum) and the upside for you is, it even specifically mentions being used on feet to treat foot odor. I haven't done that but I imagine it would working swimmingly.

  • Nature's Way Chlorofresh


    This product is along the same lines as BodyMint, but much cheaper. It is typically used to deal with bad breath that originates from odor created in the gut, but it has also been used to treat general body odor as well. I recommend starting with the top 2 recommendations first but considering this can be tried for only ~$7, it may be worth just adding it to your odor fighting stack.

  • 10-Seconds Deodorant & Disinfectant

    I was told this is the product that bowling alleys use to disinfect the bowling shoes. I bought a can sometime ago when I was running and wanted to keep my running shoes from getting rank. I can't find it right now but I seem to recall a warning about harmful/caustic chemicals coming into contact with skin so use this one carefully if you decide to try it. You should be disinfecting your shoes anyway since it sounds like your issue could be bacterial or fungal, seeing as it spreads so rapidly to new shoes.

  • Drymax Run Hyper Thin No Show Socks

    I got these for running and I love them. They are super light and are made from a breathable mesh. The thicker your socks are, the more likely your feet are to get hot and begin sweating. These are a bit expensive but you can think of them as an investment that pays dividends.

  • Mini Moso Natural Air Purifying Bag, Charcoal

    These are designed to naturally remove odor. I keep them in my shoes when they're just sitting in my closet. I assume they are working because my shoes don't stink. They are cheap and got good reviews on Amazon. Check 'em out.


    In conclusion

    I believe if you are washing your feet thoroughly, making sure your socks are clean and your feet have some Zinc ointment rubbed into them (or the crystal deodorant applied) and your shoes are properly disinfected and dry, I think you will see an appreciable reduction in foot funk if not a complete eradication.

    Good luck.

u/RequiemFiasco · 13 pointsr/electronic_cigarette

Ok, here goes. I had a similar problem except no one was complaining, I was simply fogging up the entire house. I got one of these and put it in the corner of my desk, I blow the vapor towards it and it kills 90% of the vapor. This is chain vaping at 150w on dual claptons so I think it could work wonders for your lower power setup.

u/sensorymeltdown · 13 pointsr/StonerEngineering

My roommate and I already have box fans, and I also bought this hefty beast to clean the air: Coway AP-1512HH Mighty Air Purifier, White https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01728NLRG/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_BeuRBbY39TWP3

u/ColoradoBadger · 12 pointsr/microgrowery

Absolutely, here we go:


Essential Hardware

$80 Clones - $20 from dispensary.

$325 Lights: Horticulture Lighting Group 260 QB LED Kit

  • I cannot say enough about these lights. I had to run them anywhere from 50-75% during veg to prevent light burn. Great coverage for a 2x4 tent. Nothing but praise 10/10 would buy again.

    $70 2' x 4' x 5' Mylar tent

  • Holding up well, easy build. Is not 100% dark, light leaks outwards from spots along the zipper and pinholes but no light leak into the tent during dark.

    $90 4" Inline duct fan and Carbon Filter

  • This puppy can SUCK, I have to keep it on the lowest setting to prevent the pressure inside the tent from dropping (need to work on my passive intake next grow). Carbon filter works great. Lowers humidity in a pinch.

    $10 - Ducting/Clamps from ACE

    $21 Osculating Fan

  • I have it on a small stand and osculating 24/7. It pushes air, not a jet engine though.

    Already on hand: Box Fan

  • Had one from years ago. Sometimes I open the tent and blast this on high right on level with the buds just go shake out the leaves, gets a bit crowded in the scrog and I'd like to eliminate any humidity caught between leaves sticking together. Think you can scoop one from Walmart for like $15 bucks, $20 max.

    $25 [Humidifier] (https://www.walmart.com/ip/Sunbeam-Warm-Mist-Humidifier-SWM6000-BWM/32664862)

  • This puppy does well. I use the first setting, usually can run 16+ hours on a full reservoir of H20. No filter which keeps cost down, just need to clean it one or twice a week with a brush for the hard water deposits. 5-10 minute process.

    $45 Dehumidifier

  • This was a bit of a mistake purchase. I wanted to test and see if a small model offered on amazon (this looked to be one of the best for sub $50, and has the biggest holding tank out of them all) could put in any kind of noticeable work in a tent. What I noticed is that it will be able to roughly maintain humidity at times, after I run the exhaust fan to lower the levels. When the lights are out and the temperature drops, this thing has no chance. Go with a full size dehumidifier or rely on the dry Colorado air + passive intake + duct fan. I was struggling with humidity issues during the cold of the winter, now that I can have my windows open my ambient room humidity is usually 40% or below.

    $18 4" inline duct booster fan

  • Also a mistake purchase. Does not move a lot of air. Had plans to use this for an airflow/passive (not) intake system but it's not worth the electricity cost to run this thing. I'd stay away.


    $13 Ph Meter

    $12 TDS PPM meter

    $9 Soil Moisture, Light, Ph meter - Does it's job

    $9 Ph Control Kit

    $14 Ph Calibration solution

  • For the life of the Ph meter, I store the tip in 7.0 solution that I pour into the cap. Good to have on hand for calibration.

    $6 Spray Bottles (Did not use these much, only very early during transplanting.)




    $7 for 30ct Starter grow bags

  • Do not recommend, breathe terribly, water stagnates even with modifications. Had to feed lightly and often, and really monitor dampness. Needed these for the outdoor garden anyways)


    $18 Hygrometer for Temp/Humidity

  • Worth it to get the wireless monitor so you're not opening the tent all the time)

    $8 for 6ct 5 gal Smart Pot knockoff

  • Do their job, hold up well. I cut the handles off to make watering under the scrog easier.


    $40 - Soil: Two bags of Happy Frog. Ocean forest was sitting around.

    Nutrients: $165

  • I have a local grow shop that I purchased a lot of these from. The 1 litre Cyco nutrient bottles ranged from $10-$18 and I have 7 different nutrients - call that $100 after tax.

  • Grow A, Grow B, Bloom A, Bloom B, Dr Repair, Potash, Silica

  • I purchased Key to Life - Uptake For just shy of $20. Great for calcium uptake.

  • Cyco Grow XL Super Phosphoric Acid was $45 - not cheap for 100ml but I think the potential yield improvement will cover that cost, especially over 3-4 grows which I expect to get out of the bottle.

    $13 - Scrog net: for something like 50-100ft of plastic garden fence from Home Depot. Using a lot of it for a garden.


    $15 - Miscelaneous: Eyedroppers, duct tape, zip ties, and odds and ends: Call it $15.




    So to total that all out we're looking just over 1000 that I spent, could have kept it under $950 if I had not purchased the small duct fan or dehumidifier. Also: Soil and nutrients for $205. Could work that down to under $150 by dropping a couple unnecessary yet desirable nutrients.


    Sorry for the formatting! I'm going to do a big post write up and this is a great place to start at least. Thanks for the motivation.

Can you afford to buy a free-standing AC unit and an air cleaner or three? That would be my first choice for a course of action.

Otherwise, maybe take a trip to somewhere with a hotel that has AC and allows dogs?

u/Devilled_Advocate · 11 pointsr/LosAngeles

I'm worried about brake dust too. I made a thread about it asking for air purifier advice.

Here's what I've learned.

Plants help.

The cheapest option seems to be taping a furnace filter to a box fan.

and there's a looooot of expensive options:

Panasonic, Dreval, RabbitAir, Coway...

[Here's one that claims to filter at an astronomically small scale.]
(https://molekule.com/technology) I don't know if I believe it.

This one's still on Kickstarter. It claims to vaporize particles.

Here's a vacuum that wants to help too.

And here's an article that talks about and compares air purifiers.

u/DJsupaman · 11 pointsr/CanadianMOMs

> i basically just need a light and thats it? if i want to grow autoflower only

oh boi... alright here we go.

youll need duct fans for both ventilation and heat dissipation, especially if you go with HPS/MH lights 600/1000watts will require reflectors with ducting so you can connect to it. This will need to exhaust out of your tent. Then you will need a intake fan coming preferably from outside. Youll most likely also need a Carbon filter attached in series to your exhaust fan. Your light will have a ballast as well, which creates a good amount of heat so plan for that to be located outside your tent. Youll also need smaller fans in the corners so you can keep a good air circulation going (hurricane fans are great). Also consider using T5 lights when starting your seeds off as your higher wattage lights are not good for seedlings. Also get a few supplies like gorilla tape and duct clamps and anything else you might need to secure everything together.

When it comes to growing, even if you are only doing autos youll need smart pots, fertilizer, promix HP, perlite plus both vegging and flowering nutrients. Have access to PH up and down solution, and also get a Ph Pen + PPM meter (TDS).

Ive only linked amazon, there are probably other local options for you.

u/krustyy · 11 pointsr/HomeImprovement
  1. Get a steam cleaning company out to do the carpets again.
  2. Get an Ozone Generator. Stick it in the room with a box fan. Keep the window and door closed. Jam a towel under the door. Run that this for half a day, then ventilate room. Repeat if stink remains.

    Warning: Ozone is harmful to breathe. Room needs to be completely uninhabited by plants and animals and should be thoroughly ventilated afterwards.
u/ellifino · 10 pointsr/HomeImprovement

I’m sorry you’re going through this. If I were you and had the ability to do it, I’d invest in a few of these HEPA purifiers , or something like this.

You’d have to figure out delivery or pickup, but depending on your budget, I’d run as many as I could. They are loud, but should help.

Also check out air scrubbers. They move much more air, I’ve just never bought one.

Edit: try to seal off all openings at your house and only use one door. Make sure your weatherstripping looks good. They have plastic film that you put over windows (the whole window frame) that you heat up to seal air inside it during the winter. I’d do those too.

I'd need it for every room tho right?

I 100% need a humidifier in my room at all times because of how dry my room is.

I don't control my heat since it's a super old building :(

u/craftkiller · 10 pointsr/AskNYC

I couldn't be happier with the Coway 1512. Now when I wake up I can breathe with both nostrils! The lowest speed is basically silent unless your head is 1 foot from the device. I leave it on auto which is cool because it senses particles in the air and temporarily goes to higher speeds until the air is clear again. Funnily enough, if you fart near it, it will detect that and spin up. It also pretty thoroughly eliminates odor in general.

My only complaints are:

  1. The only 3rd party filter I've found for it has bad reviews so you're generally stuck with the first party filters which can seem expensive but they last a long time so it's not terrible

  2. When I moved across the country, the fan became unbalanced which made the device loud. Personally I blame the movers since they broke/lost a bunch of my stuff but that still does indicate a failure mode of the device.

  3. The light on the top is a fucking flood light that will blind people up to 5 miles away. I taped over it.


    If I had a magic wand and could make one change to this device I'd want washable hepa filters but from what I've read, washable hepa filters don't exist at all so its not a shortcoming of this specific device.

    Finally, I'm not affiliated with them and benefit in no way from this post. The Amazon link above is not an affiliate link. I'm just a happy customer who was surprised by the improvement in my life when I got a hepa filter.

100%!
I bought this one on Amazon and have used it in 3 cars now. One of them was for my 16 year old and was really dirty and smelly so it took 2 treatments but it smells so clean now! Takes a week or so for ozone smell (which smells clean) to wear off leaving NO smell.

Also inherited some tools and the soft tool bags smelled like smoke (really strong). Put them in a big container with the ozonator and good as new.

u/masahirob · 10 pointsr/HomeImprovement

Be sure to remove plants, pets, and yourself while it runs.

u/yonran · 9 pointsr/sanfrancisco

The Coway AP-1512HH and AP-1512HH(W) are on the CARB Certified Air Cleaning Devices list for meeting California’s ozone standards. I’m not sure why Amazon is not allowing us to order the white one (they did allow it last December I believe). You can still order the black one though.

u/John_Wang · 9 pointsr/HomeImprovement

I've had a Winix 5300-2 for awhile and it's done a decent job at reducing dust and air purifying. Plus if you fart near it it will kick up the fan speed for a couple minutes; really fun party trick

u/m0n3yman · 9 pointsr/cigars

Buy and ozone machine.

https://www.amazon.com/Enerzen-Commercial-Industrial-Deodorizer-Sterilizer/dp/B01M7VOSH1

That one I have and it works very well. It has a two hour timer. I would set it before I would go to work and let it dissipate the rest of the day. You cannot be in the house with it running.

also frebreze wall plugins work great too afterward.

u/kyle787 · 8 pointsr/videos

Levoit LV-H132 I have one in my home office and it really helps. Sucks up a ton of dust from what I can tell.

u/nonosam9 · 8 pointsr/sanfrancisco

Seems like staying inside, trying to keep the dust off the floors, and using an air purifier is a good idea at this point. If you have a car, you can get a cheapish place on Hotwire.com and spend a night in Monterrey - where the air is much, much cleaner. If not for my family (who can't leave), I would be getting out of here myself.

FYI - this is a top rated air purifier for $205 + tax on Amazon, with prime 2 day delivery.

But the more you vacuum, the fewer allergens will be in the carpet to be kicked up(unless you're allergic to the actual carpet.) And the air filter that you should be using if you have allergies, should get anything kicked up by the vacuum out of the air.

Yes! Many of us have stealth grows. I use a 6" carbon filter hooked up to an inline fan that I pipe through my radon mitigation system from the basement and up through the roof of the house. I maintain negative air pressure in my grow room so no air goes anywhere but through that filter.

I'm guessing you have that shed wired for electricity or you wouldn't be growing there. If you have a stovepipe exhaust on that shed, use that. If not, either install one or use something like a dryer vent out one of the side walls. make sure it is sealed against light leaks

Double edit: Get the 4" version unless you're running 6" PVC pipe. Finding a 6"->3" coupling was a pain in the dick.

Oh absolutely! This thing has been amazing - https://www.amazon.com/LEVOIT-LV-H132-Purifier-Allergies-Eliminator/dp/B071D58ZY5 - I bought it last year when dealing with black mold here (since been resolved, last fall. Been looking for new place ever since!). Got it on sale with amazon card for about $87, so not terrible. I'd run it 24/7, but our electric bill is insane (no insulation, broken hvac, roommates who run space heaters ever night all night mean 2-3 months of utility bills = my monthly rent.)

Maybe I'm going crazy but I swear I smell it in my pillows and sheets and it's stressing me out. Is that even possible?

Yeah, I know my life epitomizes first world problems, but with already severe anxiety and insomnia, being unable to sleep bc of I'm fighting a panic attack thinking the smell has permeated my recently washed sheets, blankets and pillows....my completely fresh, clean bed is the only place in my life right now I'm totally able to unwind and relax; this has turned it into a major source of stress.

I survived the 2000 fires in Missoula, and I couldn't see my neighbors house 20 feet away for nearly a week. Here's a few tips:

  • Stay indoors
  • Seal up doors/windows with tape
  • If you have AC, change/clean the filter often.
  • If your AC has a recirculation mode, use it. This will just recirculate and somewhat filter the indoor air.
  • Buy and use some sort of Air Purifier.
  • If you have to go outside, use a dust mask or bandanna.
  • Drink lots of water, it will help your body remove the smoke from your lungs.
u/jforres · 6 pointsr/femalefashionadvice

I use these odor eliminators in any shoes I wear without socks and they make SUCH a difference. I have one set at home that I pop into my shoes as soon as I take them off and one set I keep in my shoes in my gym bag. They're great!

I also have something similar to these which add comfort and can go in the wash. But mine only work with sneakers - they wouldn't work with flats that show the top of your foot.

u/Panpaan · 5 pointsr/beyondthebump

I’ve used This HEPA during a huge OR fire in my neighboring town. The smoke was so thick you couldn’t see two houses down. It won’t filter a whole house, but will help a room. So if you get 2-3 to use in your most used rooms. At least one where the baby sleeps. This will get much finer particulate, as opposed to the box fans.

u/omgwtfishsticks · 5 pointsr/malelivingspace

It's the home that smells and you can't fix it since it's likely due to the age of the floors and walls but you can address the smell in your living area with an air purifier. They work incredibly well removing household smells, but I find that the charcoal filters (which do the best job at eliminating odors) wear out pretty fast. You may need some other recommendations in finding an ideal filter for this environment. Painting and a deep cleaning with may help.

u/[deleted] · 5 pointsr/Marijuana

A full blown HEPA purifier would be my suggestion, even though it's a good up front cost.

My roommate and I had one of these and used to amuse ourselves by putting it on one side of the living room, and blowing huge bong hits up into the opposite corner. The smoke would gather up and sit for a bit, before slowly streaming across the other side of the room and disappearing into the filter, never to be seen again.

Couldn't smell a thing. It'll clear a room out in 5-15 minutes on full bore.

u/Skrux77 · 5 pointsr/trees

There's many things you can do... my top of the line suggestion is Ozium.

You can:

  • Open up a window (If you're on the top floor, this is a godsend since smoke will dissipate UPWARDS. The neighbors underneath won't notice shit.)
  • Invest in a vaporizer as it will drastically cut down the smell.
  • Buy an air purifier

  • Buy a Smoke Buddy/Make a sploof
  • Buy lots of incense

    And if you seriously want to kill any odor whatsoever, it being probably the most expensive option is an Ozone Generator. Basically an unlimited version of Ozium.

    If you're feeling extra ballsy, just blow your smoke into the apartment hallways so now there's no way to tell who's getting a good bake on.

u/DontForgetWilson · 5 pointsr/GoodValue

I recently got my second one of these after having the first for 3 years: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00BTKAPUU/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Off-brand filters actually better: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B076JJ42V7/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 I think that pack should be everything for a year or so.

I never have the ionizer on.

​

Reasons I like it:

  1. It moves a lot of air and cleans it well.
  2. Really robust permanent pre-filter that catches the big stuff to stop it from clogging your hepa filter faster.
  3. Replacement filters last a lot longer for the price than something like GermGuardian does for me.
  4. Air quality sensor and filter reminder lights
  5. HEPA filter seems more robust than most I see. Good build quality and a thicker design that probably wouldn't have issues bending from the level of airflow(which I've seen from AC filters).

    The brand is a pretty major South Korean one(which seems to have a big air purifier market). They have a more expensive flagship model (https://www.amazon.com/AIRMEGA-Smarter-Purifier-Covers-1560/dp/B01C9RIACG/ref=sr_1_2?keywords=coway&qid=1564631008&s=hpc&sr=1-2-catcorr) that has more expensive filters and smart-phone apps but I honestly don't think the core product is much better.

u/DeadFable · 5 pointsr/AutoDetailing

Best thing to do is clean everything thoroughly with an All purpose cleaner. Meguairs D101, 3D Orange Degreaser, Optimum Power Clean bunch of others to pick as well just these come to mind. After do 2+ hours of a ozone machine Amazon Ozone. I use it for my business and its works great. For the last 30 or 15 minutes (Or if you think it's really bad turn AC on at the start) turn the car on and turn on the AC and circulate to flush the AC system. Once its done open the doors for 15 minutes letting it air out.

u/billbixbyakahulk · 5 pointsr/LifeProTips

I have the older model of this.

Very happy with it. I've owned two for about four years and been running them 24/7 without any problems. It has a hepa filter (allergens and all that) and a charcoal filter (odors). You change the charcoal filter more often (replacement filter packs typically come with 1 hepa and 3 - 6 charcoal). I change the hepa about every 18 months. I think you can also put two charcoal filters in it, or not use the hepa and go with just charcoal, if all you care about is odors and not allergens.

u/mszkoda · 5 pointsr/legaladvice

Honeywell, Winix, or Coway are ones that I have used or see recommended the most often. You want one that is true HEPA and has charcoal filters that you have to change reuglary (the charcoal filters, the HEPA is usually reusable and you may have to change it every year or few years).

I haven't bought one in a while, but this Winix looks like a really solid deal at the moment: https://www.amazon.com/Winix-5300-2-Purifier-PlasmaWave-Reducing/dp/B01D8DAYBA/ref=sr_1_14?keywords=hepa+air+purifier&qid=1556562788&s=gateway&sr=8-14

u/writemeow · 5 pointsr/tifu

An ozone machine will help to get rid of the scent and kill the mold, if you get a good one (about a hundred bucks on amazon) just let it run With the car closed for a day or two. Then throw on a mask and wipe up the mold the best you can. Then ozonate it again.

This one should be sufficient

And am considering getting one of their larger versions for the living room/dining room/kitchen area. I am amazed at the amount of stuff that ends up on the filter. I had a Honeywell/Kaz version for years. The coway is a much better unit. I think for me air filters are essentially during wildfire season, but I run it all year long. I don't think I would expect to notice a huge difference in your day to day symptoms but I believe that it prevents bad days from being worse. I think winx makes good units as well just depends on the size of your space and filter replacement costs. Also consider if it has an ionizer/ozone function that you can turn off. It is the general belief that this is not a good feature to have running in a space that you are currently occupying. (Good for odor control when you are not home)

Get a temp/hygrometer, it'll tell you humidity. Basements are notoriously humid. A dehumidifier can easily fix that. You want it at about 35-40%.

but ours was a different brand, "Sharper Image" I think it was. You still had to take the dust catching part outside once in a while, but it sure caught a lot. Assuming you have no major source for new dust, I'd imagine one of these in a medium/small library room would help quite a bit.

u/emskow · 4 pointsr/treedibles

I always follow the ediblesonly recipe from the sidebar. Really works! Always decarb first. There are many methods and variations to decarbing, but I usually just wrap my broken up buds in tinfoil and bake it at 230 degrees in the oven for about 30 minutes. The end re^sult should be brownish green and crunchy, dry to the touch. With a mortar and pestle, I pulverize the bud then transfer it to a mason jar with the coconut oil/butter, throw it in the crock pot with water in it at 195 degrees and let it stew for three hours. Take it out, let it cool, then freeze. I usually repeat the process again sometimes twice. Good luck and Happy cooking!

Edit: just saw you want to be smell free, which I have tried before with no smell. Simply skip the tinfoil method and put the broken up buds inside the mason jar you'll be using and increase the time of decarbing. Keep the fans going in your house and I would highly recommend investing in one of these air purifiers: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B004VGIGVY/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_kQJAzb3CD7F1Z
I smoke inside my apartment with this running (where we had to sign a clause to not smoke inside) and it leaves my apartment smelling brand new when I have it running for a few hours after smoking. It really helps, especially when wanting to make edibles!

u/srs0001 · 4 pointsr/BuyItForLife

I would highly recommend Coway systems. I have pretty bad allergies purchased a Coway Airmega 300 for my 850sq ft studio. I've been incredibly happy with it so far. It is extremely well designed and the pre-filters are super easy to clean.

Considering the size of your room you may want to take a look at the Coway Mighty, which is smaller but made by the same company. It currently sits at the top of The Wirecutter's air purifier recommendations.


The Black Coway Mighty is discounted down to $206 on Amazon. Looking at it's price history on CamelCamelCamel, it seems that is a reasonable discount. If you can wait a bit, it looks like it drops below $175 pretty regularly.

u/mrjizzles · 4 pointsr/fragrance

You can ozone the room and it will permanently eliminate the fragrance molecules from everything in your room/house by chemical magic -- it switches Oxygen (O2) to O3 -- which rips the bonds that cause fragrances/odors.

This is easy to fix and will cost only about $70, but the device will last for nearly a lifetime. I highly recommend it for all sorts of uses. It can be used in cars, too. Public spaces such as office buildings, retail spaces, cinemas, restaurants, and hotels use these all the time to keep everything smelling clean. Keep your closets and drawers open while doing this so your clothes and shoes get freshened, too.

u/chibichn · 4 pointsr/Outlier

I've never done this with clothes, but you might consider trying an ozone generator as they basically neutralize any smells. The downside is that you'd have to invest in some mildly expensive equipment. I have an Enerzen model I bought off Amazon and it works great.

u/mfinn · 4 pointsr/Hunting

Next time you can invest in a 75.00 ozone generator. Put it in the running car, turn it on for 25 minutes and run the AC on recirculate.

It will eliminate ANY smell in that car. Cigarettes smoke, deer blood, musk gland stink, dead hooker smells in the trunk, you name it. Just stay out of the car for a couple of hours until the ozone itself dissipates since it's terrible for your lungs.

It's also amazing for scent control. I don't even bother with cover smells any more. Just ozone my stuff the night before and leave it in a rubbermade bin.

u/chrisbrl88 · 4 pointsr/HomeImprovement

Candles don't neutralize odor. If anything, they make things worse by putting soot into the air. This would be a job for an ozone generator. The things are like magic.

u/transistorfn · 3 pointsr/vaporents

This is the one I have. I'm not talking like a desktop purifier. I'm talking a large bulky appliance that chills on the floor in my bedroom. They do the job perfectly as long as you get something rated for the space (sq ft typically) you're toking in. I mean... It's not instantaneous, but it does move a lot of air fast when on high, that being said, it's also loud when on high.

Honeywell 50250-S True HEPA Air Purifier.

Carbon Pre-Filter.

One caveat to the whole thing is that these obviously aren't meant/rated for someone using them to smoke with. They're meant for folks with severe allergies, sensitivities to smells, and chronic illnesses that might affect their immune systems.

As such, the equipment only holds up so long, and you'll need to replace the "lifetime" hepa filter. There are plenty both official and aftermarket you can find like this one.

Originally picked up an HEPA air filter to reduce dust and allergens. The secondary white noise effect is now the primary reason I use it. It drowns out so much external noise. Both living room tv and outside traffic noise is mostly inaudible. it's a white noise type sound so you don't notice the filter sound after a while. This is the one I use.

u/nathhad · 3 pointsr/HomeImprovement

I just wanted to second the vote for a separate purifier. Any filter more restrictive than a loose weave is effectively pretty hard on an HVAC unit. It makes a lot more sense to run a second unit.

We deal with allergies, and have three of these running in a 1500 square foot house, much more effective and less likely to cause thousands in HVAC damage:

u/TheSunEvenRises · 3 pointsr/cockatiel

Some recommendations - from my own experience of fostering 5 birds in a similar condition as yours. Big big big cage, lots of different perch types, and use a towel or sheet to form a backing to part of the cage, to give it some area that it isn't worried about what's behind it. A radio set low on something like jazz or classical through the day will help set it a bit on ease, especially if it is a single bird. Keep him in a nice quiet spot, and I wouldn't even attempt handling for a couple weeks. Through your daily routine it is likely to freak out a little and scurry away. Just move calmly and slowly, just handling the food and water bowls, no sudden movements or grabs/touches, and praise in happy tones, whistle, or imitate whatever sounds it makes.

I also found my foster birds to be quite lacking in nutrition; once they settled in, I began to offer pellets, cuttlebone, Nutri-Berries, and birdy bread (cycled them through). Mine were seed only, but have moved to Rowdybush pellets and destroy a cuttlebone in a couple weeks.

As for dust/bath, when the bird is settled in, you can try light spray/misting, and to encourage the bird to bathe to find a water 'relaxation' device and the sound and sight of the bubbling water will make it do the bathing motions (half-open wings, rubbing head under them), then spray/mist or offer water in a pie dish. Until then, consider an air filtration device like these: http://www.amazon.com/Honeywell-Compact-Purifier-Permanent-HHT-011/dp/B000N9CPQK/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1395162523&sr=8-4&keywords=honeywell+air+purifier

u/amonsterinside · 3 pointsr/Allergies

You don't need $400.00 for an air purifier. Buy a GermGuardian, they're $80 and spend the rest on new filters every 1-3mo.

Immunotherapy is going to be the best option for your girlfriend. It's also really good to start immunotherapy early if your child develops allergies. Daily antihistamines might be in your favor, Costco is a great place to buy antihistamines for a year and very cheap (sub $15).

All in all, no, you're not doing any disservice to your child by not letting them inhale cigarette second hand smoke or second hand weed. Purify the air if you know it exists. Chances are your child will have allergies if the mother does. It's just the way the world works. I've been exposed to mold, dander, pollen, trees, grass, and played in the dirt and was outside my entire childhood. I'm still allergic to everything. Germ theory makes sense for allergies, but does not always play out in practice. There's something deeper that has yet to be discovered, but for now, do your best to keep your child away from secondhand smoke and don't worry too much about air allergens. They're going to get plenty of allergen exposure at school, the playground, other parts of the house, and just about anywhere you go.

Anything in a spray, oil or incense is just masking the odor. Even Febreeze really just covers up the smell vs treating the symptoms. You're covering all the bases by washing, vacuuming, and improving air flow. The next step I would go with is an air purifier.

u/pandaeconomics · 3 pointsr/AskWomen

It's a horrible trade-off to make!

Here is the air purifier and I highly recommend getting both the suggested filter and pre-filter. The pre-filters get all of the pet hair and are cheaper so that you only replace those every so often instead of the entire filter. Once the pre-filter gets gray I replace it, about every month, but the actual filter only needs to be replaced a couple times a year in my experience. It depends on how much dust and other things are actually making it through.

Life has been much better with this and if you just need a dog-free space like the bedroom, it'll be even more effective because the space is smaller. :)

Edit: Also, I've had it since December of 2015 and it still works very well!

u/Kailola · 3 pointsr/amateur_boxing

I like this glove deodorizer I got off amazon, I wipe down the inside of my gloves with the same mixture as you once a week. I usually spray my shoes down with this deodorizer daily. I have a bunch of these mini deodorizers that I put in my gym bag + sneakers on my way home. Haven't had one foul smell emerge from my bag/gear to date so I think I'm doing everything right lol.

ETA: I wash all my clothing (socks, shirts, leggings/shorts)/sports bras with a odor eliminator along with laundry detergent as well.

u/brdd · 3 pointsr/smarthome

I'm not sure whether this qualifies as "smart" but I have the Coway purifier that's recommended by the Wirecutter (and actually steeply discounted to nearly $60 less what I paid...).

It's very good, "turn it on and forget about it", and has a built-in air quality sensor that can dynamically adjust the performance of the purifier. It also produces a very pleasant low-frequency white noise (as compared to some which are much more higher pitched).

u/jaronsummers · 3 pointsr/AskNYC
u/JimboMonkey1234 · 3 pointsr/Allergies

My recommendation for an air purifier (after a bunch of research) is the Coway: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00BTKAPUU

I second the allergy testing, that could help narrow down the cause.

When you say you try to keep the air circulating, does that including opening the window? I ask because you could be letting early morning pollen in.

Another thing you can try: sleep on a different mattress / air bed / sleeping bag in the problem room. That would tell you if it's the air or the bed.

u/Call_My_Lawyer · 3 pointsr/AutoDetailing

You can buy a decent one on amazon for under $100. Most shops I've seen around that actually offer ozone treatment charge $60 for one treatment and $100 for unlimited. I decided it was a good excuse to buy another tool. I bought this one in November and have used it several times. It works well and has already paid for itself a few times over. It sucks that you cant do much work on the car while its running, but it works for the jobs you need it.

u/iWoNeVeRyThInG · 3 pointsr/sales

Not sure where you live, but you can ask a place that does detail if they have ozone cleaning. Orrrrr you can buy a small machine from amazon. I have one, take about 24 hours but the smell does go away. Most of the machines on amazon have details on how to use, its white simple and very effective.

Considering you buy and sell cars on Craigslist, this could be a valuable for you.

Edit. Something like this, this is the one I have.

"ozone generators remove odors by producing large/concentrated amounts of O3 (ozone) which oxidize and break down residual odor compounds in the surrounding air. Because the O3 is so highly concentrated, it is recommended that rooms be unoccupied during treatment. Once the air treatment is finished though, the O3 quickly converts back into O2 (oxygen) and the room is left with a "fresh air" smell."

u/arizona-lad · 3 pointsr/HomeImprovement

Rent or buy an ozone generator. Turn it on and leave the house for three hours. You may have to move it to another part of the house for a second treatment if it does not neutralize the smells completely. It will do an excellent job of destroying odors in your home:

u/bruxbuddies · 3 pointsr/RATS

I agree with BorkinUpTree that it won’t replace meds, etc. But an air purifier is a good idea anyway. This is a pretty good deal if you have a small room LEVOIT Air Purifier (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B071D58ZY5/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_TXIIDbWFR4CJH). Or if you have a larger room, the Coway (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01728NLRG/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_R0IIDb1FMW1PV) or the large room Levoit is good (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B06W54K29J/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_GZIIDb63270W0). Just don’t use an ionizing setting or get one that emits ozone. They help a lot with the general funk and odor of a room that doesn’t have a lot of circulation. The HEPA filter takes out allergens and dust as well. Sorry about your little guy with pneumonia, it’s so frustrating when they’re sick. Good luck!

u/ShimmyZmizz · 3 pointsr/Cooking

Expensive option is get an air purifier like this one.

Cheap option is window fans for exhaust but another thing that might help is a splatter guard for your pan. Won't stop smoke but also won't steam your food like a lid would. I use one when frying and searing, it definitely makes a difference in how irritated my eyes get afterwards. Here's an option specifically for odor reduction, but I just have a normal mesh one and it still works great.

Okay 4 plants with good genetics can yield just as much weed as 6 plants with lesser genetics.

So here is what I recommend.

Tent: 4x4 minimum with 5x5 preferred because it gives you room to walk in the tent which saves your back and also gives you room for extra equipment inside the tent, buy Vivosun they are good quality and have excellent zippers.

Is there anything else I can help you with?

u/leonardskinner33 · 3 pointsr/JAHSeeds

This is my first time growing, so please feel free to critique/rip into my setup, as I really appreciate all the help and knowledge! I actually ordered my seeds from JAHseeds a year ago, but never got my shit together enough to actually do anything with them.

 

I do want to take a quick moment to thank u/AFK_ing for the seeds first, as they were actually gifted to me for free. I placed an order on a whim one night, and then completely forgot about it. Turns out that JAHseeds never ended up depositing the interac transfer I sent them, so it inevitably expired. I had forgotten about the order completely, when out of the blue one day I received a letter in the mail complete with 12 free seeds and a handwritten 'apology' letter. This absolutely floored me, and left me feeling super warm and fuzzy inside. I've been cherishing the seeds up until now, so I'm really really happy that I can finally bring them to life :) Anyways....thank you JAHseeds!

 

Onto the setup! Currently running:

 

2x alibaba 240w QB

 

Promix HP + 2inch layer of worm castings on the bottom

 

Strain is The Best My seeds are not feminized however, so still unsure of sex.

 

Right now they are in 1 gallon pots and I'm planning on moving them into 7 gallon fabric pots when the time is right.

 

I kinda went ham one night and bought the entire GH nutrient lineup (including all the additives....) so I'm planning on sticking to their schedule (halved) throughout the grow. I know I could have done without a lot (most) of them, but yeah it was still cheaper than buying an Oz from the LP....Currently only feeding them water.

 

The tent is a GA 48x48x80, with a Vivosun 6 inch duct fan and carbon filter

 

Holmes Lil' Blizzard fan (this thing moves a lot of air)

 

I originally had a smaller tent so I started out germinating 3 seeds by dropping them in a glass of water for 36 hours. After they all popped, I planted them directly into coco pots. At that time I decided to change to a larger tent, so I dropped 2 more seeds into a glass of water to germinate. 36 hours later one of the seeds had popped, but not the other. I planted the one that popped, and left the other in the water for another 12 hours. At this time it still hadn't popped, so I just dropped it into a pot with the others. The one that never popped didnt end up coming through the soil until about 2 days ago (I was actually just about to give up on it). It's the tiny coco pot in the middle. Pretty sure it's gonna be a retard plant but whatever, I'll give it some love and care. Don't tell Justin. The nice healthy plant on the bottom right is the other seed that I germinated with it at the same time.

u/CardboardHeatshield · 3 pointsr/engineering

The box fan is gonna be pretty shitty at generating the pressure delta you need to pull air through the filter, theres just way too much slippage around the vanes.

By the time you buy the correct fan and get the sealing figured out, you might as well have spent the $300.

Also, you can get a decent HEPA filter on amazon for about half that. I've got this one and I love it: https://www.amazon.com/Winix-5300-2-Purifier-PlasmaWave-Reducing/dp/B01D8DAYBA/ref=sr_1_8?ie=UTF8&qid=1524843388&sr=8-8&keywords=hepa+filter+winix

u/TheThirdSaperstein · 3 pointsr/news

This has been an absolute game changer in my life and I can't recommend it enough!

Carbon filter, hepa filter, neg ion generator. Practically all sizes of particles get trapped in the filters, and what doesn't get trapped drops out of the air when the negative ions attach to them. Also, forests full of trees/waterfalls and beaches etc have very high amounts of negative ions in the air, it gives it a clean fresh feel. When my mom visits she says entering my room is like stepping into a different world because it's so pure and fresh.

There's a few different models of the same basic type, but this one is about 150 plus around 30 bucks a year for new filters.

first off. You are neighbors. walk across the hallway knock on the door and ask them to smoke outside. if this doesn't work then report them to the landlord and you can do this with a clear conscience. If you are desperate enough to be rid of the smell go on amazon and buy a carbon filter and place it by the door that the smell comes through.

(It also has actual carbon pellets and a great prefilter screen which is easy to vacuum).

We have 3 different air cleaners and the one above is the best of the three. Most cleaners can only really clean anywhere from 200 to 400 sq feet and that assumes the highest setting (which for most air cleaners is not practical because of the noise). The Blue Pure ones recommended by the other person cleans a bit larger area because the filter is not as fine but that cleaner is also not a true hepa cleaner. Whether that makes a difference or not, I don't know but the manufacturer of Blue Pure recommends their "classic line" of cleaners that are true HEPA for severe allergy sufferers.

One thing to keep in mind that that for most cleaners, you can't use the highest setting and still function with all the noise the cleaner will produce. We set the Winix on level 3 and consider it relatively quiet (moving up to level 4 makes it quite loud).


u/Peuned · 2 pointsr/trees

not sure what your budget is but if you wanna guarantee it buy a small carbon filter and inline fan used for growing, 4" fan and carbon filter are around 80-100$. have that in the room you're smoking in, and it'll recirculate the air through the filter and leave no smell. literally, no smell, it filters dank plants in flowering and will filter smoke too easily.

https://www.amazon.com/VIVOSUN-Inline-Control-Australia-Charcoal/dp/B01MSEVQ3J/ref=sr_1_fkmr0_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1537117695&sr=8-3-fkmr0&keywords=carbi%5Con+filter+inline+fan

this will do. if you run a duct from it to the other side of the room 5-6 ft, you'll have a whole room circulation going on filtering the air.

if i was in illegal state i'd use this for the room i smoked in. well, also for the room i grow in too, but whatevs

It helps if you wash your beard frequently during hay-fever season---e.g., each time after going outside. Indoors, you can use an air cleaner, which helps a lot. I have one of these in the living room and another in the bedroom, and they help a LOT.

u/bbdoll · 2 pointsr/cats

usually it's the saliva that triggers allergies. you'll want some hypoallergenic wipes or dry shampoo that you use weekly on the cat. you'll also want to groom the cat daily with a brush like this, the less saliva covered fur floating around the better! you'll definitely want some HEPA air purifiers, probably at least two that you run on high constantly. vacuum the filters every couple of weeks. keep the bedroom closed off so there's a pet free zone for awhile. have allergy pills of course.

many people get used to an animal through exposure so it's possible in a few months she won't be allergic to that specific cat anymore. sounds like that might be the case if she's able to be around her friend's cat longer than others.

$5-20: Mentholated ointment, over the counter antihistamines, Neti pot, nasal irrigator. For the sore throat, menthol lozenges, essential oils (peppermint), and oral anesthetics (Cepacol) can't be beat.

$30-$50: Vapor inhaler and humidifier

$50-$100: Air purifier, better air purifier

(And no, I don't work for Honeywell... their filters are just cheap and easy to come by)

Any small room HEPA filter unit on Amazon should be sufficient. Make sure it's an actual HEPA filter, and not HEPA like. Read descriptions carefully.

EDIT: I've had two versions of this and they've worked well. A bigger one that died after 6 years of daily use, and now a smaller one meant just for my bedroom.

my wife suffers from pretty bad allergies. we replaced our generic cheap air filter for our central air unit. after a couple of weeks, she said she could tell a noticeable difference.

I've also considered getting a Honeywell 50250 to put in our main living room area. I've read great things about it and it's cheap vs most other "pro" air cleaners.

Honeywell 50250-S True HEPA Air Purifier, 390 sq. ft.

It's awesome but even on low a little loud. It works very very well though. I can't crack a window and this is a good solution.

u/fullofbones · 2 pointsr/ragdolls

Well, we brush both of ours at least every other day with a steel comb like this, just so they don't have matting problems. I've only seen one furball between the two of them in the last year or so. It really is shocking how much loose fur a simple steel comb will catch, but it works. :)

We have this air purifier in the bedroom to reduce fluff in there. It's crazy how much fur it catches. The black filter wrap that goes around the whole inside is white before I vacuum the fur off when cleaning it.

And finally, we have this brush for getting fur off clothes. You'll still want the sticky brushes for touch-ups, but this catches a ton of buildup and works great on furniture.

Get one of those air filters that sits on the floor.

u/Dat_Archon · 2 pointsr/SpaceBuckets
  1. I'd recommend the LED's for the 32 gallon. If you were just using 5gal buckets then it's not as big of a deal, but the canopy can get pretty thick and it'll really cause the lower half of your plant to suffer.

  2. Again because of the size of the setup, 2 stacked fans will probably be enough but you may suffer from airflow if you over stuff your filter. I was considering doing a similar setup with my pc fans, but I'm running a smaller 5gal setup.

  3. I can't comment on this part, but DIY should be fine. As long as it's air tight and has activated carbon, it's not going to be much different than a store setup.

  4. Definitely active. Even if you just have 1-2 computer fans pulling in from the bottom, this will take some of the work load off of your outtake fans, especially if you plan on using the duel comp fan carbon filter. If you're feeling more fancy you could also consider a HEPA filtered fan as an intake, to reduce the chance of mold getting into your rig, as well as keeping dust from accumulating in the fans.

u/ViciousJungleChicken · 2 pointsr/AskWomen

Crazy cat lady here, I have four in my apartment. Unless they are lying to me, everyone that comes over is always shocked I have cats because it doesn't smell like it "should". I have two air purifiers in the house these and I have this one that sits directly on top of the litter box. I've had my four cats around 10 years and also fostered probably about... 30. So I feel like I've tried it all and I finally have a good ritual and set up. I use this litter box because it's big and tall which they prefer but also easy to get inside when it's time to clean. I use this track mat because so far it's really done the best to keep the litter from traveling far from the box. And like you, I clean it 2-3 times a day. The litter that is. I use this litter which is LIGHT YEARS better than anything else I've ever used. One of my cats also has horrible allergies and this is the one litter I've found that she doesn't react to. It also doesn't dust so you don't have to constantly feel like poofs of litter are showing up around the house or on the carpet or furniture. I also vacuum every single day. I have one vacuum I use for the floor where there may be litter tracked and another I use that never touches litter. I think this is fairly important. This vacuum honestly is the best I've found for hair. Miracle worker. Unless you can afford the Dyson Animal. I also have this spray that I'll use for my carpet and fabric once a month or so and I feel like it makes a huge difference. And then lastly I also keep windows open whenever I can and I have this diffuser and put oil in it a few times a week and let it run for a bit, plus it looks cool with the lights :) Oh! and one last thing that I think is great... put one of those cardboard scratch pads near the litter box so the cat has to step over it to get anywhere else. Like off the track mat but near the box. I do this and all the cats inevitably use the scratch pad for fun when walking by it but I'm convinced it also cleans their paws from any litter left over before they start walking around the rest of the house!

u/greyscaledragon · 2 pointsr/ferrets

Do you have carpet? If you do try getting a carpet protector for office chairs (http://www.amazon.com/Office-Marshal%C2%AE-Polycarbonate-Carpet-Floors/dp/B00UAK3ALQ)
You can cut it up and place it in corners where they are pooping, and under the door if they scratch and poo there.
Also I use this air purifier and place it next to their litterbox and it really helps. (http://www.amazon.com/Hamilton-Beach-TrueAir-Room-Eliminator/dp/B002SHCEVG/)
I don't really have any suggestions for destroying their bedding, sorry

u/rendeld · 2 pointsr/trees

To significantly cut the smell, unless you are smoking a joint or blunt

To keep the area Fresh

and make sure to use these filters for the air purifier

The purifier takes 3 filters which is what is included in that filter pack i sent. The smoke ones are really good and have a carbon filter backing to them and last about 3 months. The ones that come with it are great for alergens but you might as well toss them if you are trying to get rid of smoke only.

Edit: There is also this Which goes with this. Now this might be overkill, but it will get rid of any smell you have period, cats, smoke, whatever.

u/Flam5 · 2 pointsr/HomeImprovement

I agree. If OP has a flashlight, respirator, some sort of eye protection and a ladder, I'd simply take a peak, and take pictures.

Short of that, OP, I'd simply recommend getting an air purifier with a UV filter such as this until it's addressed. If that's too much to deal with until the landlord comes back, I'd just look into shacking up at a friend or family's place for a few days, especially with an infant in the mix, as infants would be more susceptible to health problems due to mold being in the air.

u/Bmorehon · 2 pointsr/BroMoHousekeeping

You need a HEPA filter. I like this one because there are 2 filters, one that catches the hair and big stuff that I can just rinse off, and one that catches the nitty gritty that needs to be replaced every so often. With 3 dogs and 4 cats, this thing is running 90% of the time, even when we aren't home.

Also, when was the last time you changed your AC unit filter?

u/nerd0001 · 2 pointsr/gadgets

The quality of the filter does matter...the higher the rating, the better it will filter out bacteria and other harmful particles. Having a multistage filter with charcoal will further pull odors out of the air. My Dr has one of these in his small office

Here is a guide to the MERV raitings it shows what types of particles each level will generally filter out. The HEPA filters will start at level 17 and have their own scale.

You typical lowes/ homedepot air filters for your home are around a MERV 5 for basic and 11 for the higher end.

I had crazy allergies too when I first got my cat Roo. You do eventually build up an immunity, but to be fair it took me months and I was even considering seeing an allergist for shots.

The only thing that helped was taking claritin or zyrtec with a purifier I bought on amazon:
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B004VGIGVY/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_OVkACbBRGZHD9

I also tried tapering off the claritin to every other day until I was finally exhibiting mild symptoms such as occasional sneezing and coughing, which I had a proair to combat.

See your doctor for allergy prescriptions or an allergist if you want to take the shot route. Other than that it'll definitely go away.

Get a room air purified and just run it on low all the time. It will cut down the dust SIGNIFICANTLY in such a small, enclosed space as your figures are in. Something like this would do the trick, and for not that much money overall. It would allow you to be, as you state that you want to, really really lazy :P!

u/killing1sbadong · 2 pointsr/MushroomGrowers

I had posted a similar question earlier and there didn't seem to be much response to it. From what I've read online, oyster mushrooms have pretty strong sporulation, and you can develop allergies etc from breathing a ton of it. With 9x5lb blocks that will probably be a lot of spores, and taking a few precautions is never a bad idea.

I am setting up a shelf greenhouse similar to your setup, and my plan is to put HEPA filters on the 120mm (computer/muffin) fans to filter the exhaust from the greenhouse.

There is a great 3D printing part designed for this exact thing.

I've printed it and it seems good so far, but I haven't actually finished setting it up. By cutting correctly shaped holes in the greenhouse (probably securing the fan with zipties) and sealing around it, you should be able to fix both your FAE problem and prevent most of the spores from leaving the greenhouse.

HEPA filters are usually 0.2-0.5 micron, and the spores are on the order of 2 micron, so they should work pretty well. As a backup / to keep the room tidy in general, I've also picked up one of these floor fans with a HEPA filter off of Amazon. That will also help remove them from the air, as some will definitely get loose over time.

Once I have my system set up I'm planning on putting up a few photos, but it'll be another week or two.

Sorry for the wall of text, hope it helps!

u/CliffordAlgebra · 2 pointsr/bouldering

None of the maintenance solutions I'm about to suggest to you work with an already super stinky pair in my experience but this is okay! As far as I know Ocun doesn't have any leather shoes so you should be fine taking the nuclear option and scrubbing the inside with rubbing alcohol. While I don't know the particular chemical make up Ocun uses for their rubber, many rubbers lose elasticity through prolonged exposure to alcohol so don't do this every day.

The general recommendations I see are either [Boot Bananas] (http://www.bootbananas.com/shop/) or Mini Moso's (I use these).

As for the stink being particular to your brand, well I don't know it to be notably stinky but certainly synthetics tend to hold stink far more than leather does. If you're willing to deal with the stretching issues for sizing you might consider making your next pair leather.

u/SparkingtonIII · 2 pointsr/bouldering

I got these Mini Moso Natural Air Purifying Bags.

They are essentially the same thing (bamboo charcoal) without the essential oils (add a few drops if it's necessary) or the hefty price.

I have chemical sensitivities and almost any perfume is to much for me. Plus fragrance is in everything (why o why do products have to add fabreez to everything under the sun?!) Laundry Detergent (I'm looking at you Gain! You. Are. Evil!) hand soap, shampo, lotion etc. But I digress...

A big part of why people over do on perfume is because they put on enough so they can smell it which is a huge mistake. Perfume is one of those things where less is more, but people don't seem to grasp that concept.

And I've worked with co-workers who just plainly didn't care. No one was going to tell them what they could or couldn't wear. You have a couple of options here:


Option 1: Invest in a small air purifier like this one.

Option 2: Tell her about all of the horrible chemicals companies can put into 'fragrance' because its proprietary information and they don't have to disclose it. Make it about how the fragrance is harming her.

Option 3: If you're in the States, Go to your boss. Explain that you have a medical condition (you can disclose or not disclose its migraines) and offer some optional ADA 'reasonable accommodations' (this wording is important. It's part of the Adults and Disabilities Act law) such as: A fragrance free work environment that everyone needs to adhere to, paying for the air purifier, or moving to another location that can be fragrance free.

If you're in another country find out if you have such accommodations provided by law and what they are. Hope this helps.

Second the ozone machine. Get an industrial unit like this, not a crappy tower air purifier with ozone deal. Shut this in a room on high for 24 hours, turn it off, open a window to let the room air out and it will do wonders. I used this on my mom's place who roomed with a chimney and a car with so much cigarette ash embedded in the upholstery that it looked like a texture.

u/GlamGlamGlam · 2 pointsr/AskMen

I think the generators come with a timer. You do not want to let it run for too long.


As for the run time, it depends on the size of the room. I have not used one yet but I was looking into it recently.

I think the typical case is to run it on a timer for an hour or two with the windows and door sealed then wait like an hour or so to let the ozone concentration fall back to normal and then open the windows and doors. For tenacious odors you might need to run it multiple times but every time you use it it should improve the smell.


i was looking into this model: https://smile.amazon.com/Enerzen-Commercial-Industrial-Deodorizer-Sterilizer/dp/B00JAP7388/ref=sr_1_3?keywords=ozone+generator&qid=1566836172&s=gateway&sr=8-3

Try an Ozone Generator. Best way I’ve found to get rid of any smells. Leaves the room smelling like fresh rain. Just can’t be in there when it does it’s job. Good luck with the dirty birdy.

I’ve been thinking of buying an ozone machine for this very reason. There’s a distinctly gamy odor that my boys’ room gets that I just can’t figure out (they’re 12 and 7). I figure I can also use it in my van, too.

$70 from Amazon!

I used to use orange spritz all the time. Last year, I bought one of these ozone generators: amazon.com/gp/product/B00JAP7388/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 and I'm not going back.

They use these in hotel rooms to kill germs in between guests.

Thanks for your thoughts. I was thinking about getting some Kilz Max which claims to be an odor blocker, but I am thinking the same thing - it's likely to just bring it's own smell.

We have the round mechanical noise machine that a couple folks linked to here already. It is nice, but kinda expensive for something that just makes noise.

A couple years ago we were dealing with allergies in our house, so I ended up buying a couple hepa filters that are older models of this. On low, this sounds basically like the round noise machine's loudest setting. Medium is like that noise machine on steroids. High is like an airplane idling in the room. We love them. We actually lug those things around on road trips because they are so great at drowning out outside noise.

I was looking at one but never pulled the trigger, decided a heater in my porch would be the only sure way to avoid smoke in the house.

I was looking at the True Hepa but have no experience, just seemed like it might do the job from my research.

u/grog4590 · 1 pointr/RealEstate

I've been in this situation several times in my current apartment. I went with an air filter like this one. It doesn't completely eliminate smoke but it helps a lot. Also helps with my allergies.

The smoking tenant eventually caused a fire (fire trucks and everything) and ended up leaving shortly after so that problem solved itself, I guess.

u/myersjustinc · 1 pointr/aww

My wife and I have this air purifier and recommend it highly. (I'm the allergic one.) Several of our friends with cat allergies also have come over and remarked how little they reacted to our cat compared to others, and the purifier's been a big part of that. It can be a bit loud, but it has different speed/loudness settings (and can be moved from room to room), so it's usually not a problem.

u/SoMuchMoreEagle · 1 pointr/LifeProTips

According to the chart on the Honeywell Enviracaire HEPA's Amazon page, it cleans up to 350 square feet, so I assume a smaller one wouldn't clean that much. Take a look at the chart at the bottom of the page.

I keep mine mostly in the kitchen to filter out the kitchen smells, but sometimes move it if I need it in another room. I try not to move it too much, however, since the thing is kind of heavy and a bit loud on the high setting. Probably one large one for the main part of the house and then one for each other room would do (I wouldn't worry about the bathroom). It depends on how much you want to spend on them and how much stuff you need to filter out.

u/intensely_human · 1 pointr/worldnews

It is weird that people don't talk about it. What specifically have you tried in terms of starting conversations?
As for where is "good" these days, my window sills don't constantly fill with black dust so I suspect here's "good" with regard to coal particulates.

If I had that going on, I'd be looking for some kind of air filter I can have in the house that circulates and cleans the air. Maybe something like this: https://www.amazon.com/Honeywell-50250-S-True-HEPA-Purifier/dp/B00007E7RY/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1467784871&sr=8-4&keywords=hepa+filter

Would be an interesting experiment to let that thing run in one of your rooms for a week and then take a look at the filter. I wonder if I would have black dust in it?

u/wobbletons · 1 pointr/LifeProTips

Over the summer I was living in a 1 bedroom apartment and I was the only tenant in the building who didn't smoke. My solution was to put a hepa air filter in the room with me and never turn it off. it wasn't perfect but it did help a lot. I was also going to seal off the vents or put some kind of filter in them, but never got to it.

Put an air filter in her room right now.

I had one of those short, fat, round Honeywell HEPA filters. It reduced the dust in my apartment tremendously. I set it to run for about an hour per day while I was gone, and turned it on when I was vacuuming. World of difference.

Edit: links. I had one like this, except programmable. I guess they don't have a programmable version in that form factor anymore. I guess this style is the only option.

u/small_fish · 1 pointr/BuyItForLife

I'll have to double check when I'm home, but I bought a small Honeywell a couple years ago. It helped with my allergies, but it took way too long to filter my tiny bedroom. A year ago I bought this model (I think), and its much better. Also, you need to realize hepa-type is not the same as true hepa. This model filters much larger rooms in more reasonable time. The main tradeoff is its a bit large, but it is also very modestly priced.

Still needs a few more years of use to determine if its really bifl quality.

u/DarthContinent · 1 pointr/AskReddit

You could get a HEPA air purifier to keep airborne cat dander under control. Also you might be able to get antihistamine shots through your doctor. If I'm not mistaken, some things seem to more easily trigger an allergic reaction as we age.

A cat insinuated itself into our home years ago, my wife and I both are allergic to cats, but over time it seems like we've gotten accustomed enough that our reaction now is relatively light compared to around the time we first got him. If we go to someone's home though who's got that distinctive tang of cat dander in the air, we both start reacting similarly, so I guess keeping the air clean in conjunction with having our one cat whom our body's antibodies have become mostly accustomed to helps minimize the impact.

On the low setting they're usually really quiet. The one we put in our bedroom makes a huge difference with musty smells.

u/machinehead933 · 1 pointr/buildapc

A liquid cooler isn't going to fix your dust problem - you typically install the fans on the radiator as intake, so you'll be sucking in outside air anyway. Magnetic dust filters are a good idea, or maybe you can pick up something like this to cut down on dust near your PC.

Other than that, dust is just a problem no matter what, and you'll need to clean our your PC every once in a while.

u/MaxTheBiochemist · 1 pointr/AnycubicPhoton

Fixed: First off, thank you guys so much for your advice. This forum is a huge boon to owning a photon. Passing it forward, the problem was solved after I did the following:

  1. Cleaning the dust out of the room the printer was in and buying an Air purifyier/filter for $50 on Amazon and setting it up so it was right next to the printer, sucking air from underneath the printer where the intake fan is.

  2. After cleaning the room, I bought a bottle of Elegoo Gray. See Here. This stuff is amazing.
u/Azurphax · 1 pointr/buildapc

Great question. I'm using a (Holmes) air purifier with a carbon based filer from at least 15 years ago that is still running strong in my computer room (old version of this, and one of those cylinder type Honeywell HEPA purifiers in the bedroom. I change the filter on the hoilmes once it shows that its absorbed enough to make it a certain color, which amounts to about once every few years. The honeywell uses two filters, one acts much like the fan filters on your computer (foam, I rinse it clean pretty regularly), the other is a HEPA that I have never replaced (two years running). Now when I say that either of these are running strong, I mean not anywhere as strong as the AC filter, but still effective enough to run all day long and in the winter. Both push a little bit more air than the computer intakes.

As far as recommendations, depending on your budget, you have a lot of options with today's technology. If you're looking for the equivalent of an air cleaner benchmark you might want to look into the CADR, though those ratings are typically based on the unit being on highest speeds, which if you're like me is NEVER! Ideally, you'd use the biggest (affordable) cleaner running at low-med speeds. I use a pretty small one at the lowest speed when I'm in the room, and at medium when I'm sleeping/working. You can get some ideas on what you're getting into by looking at this Consumer Reports guide, or you can see what filters are most popular by checking the Amazon top sellers.

I'm thinking of getting an electrostatic filter sometime soon. Perhaps even one of the water based ones. Stay away from the cheapo hamilton beach stuff.

u/Jemunoz · 1 pointr/electronic_cigarette

u/strdg99 · 1 pointr/AskElectronics

Surprised I haven't seen it here, but a small, desktop HEPA air purifier w a charcoal filter element on top of it will take care of the (flux) fumes.

Buy a carbon air filter purifier.

Use the vap and blow the leftover smoke into the intake of the air purifier. The carbon will completely absorb any smell and smoke and return clean, fresh air. You'll need to buy new filters every 4-6 months or so depending how much you use it. They also have fresh scented filters.

u/ekibnur · 1 pointr/SaltLakeCity

I don't know what an income purifier is. For pm2.5 if it's really bad you want a normal mechanical air filter with a HEPA filter or an Ionic filter. Ionic filters do create ozone however, so if you're susceptible to ozone it's not the best choice. I have this one at the office right now. You can get a combination of plants to deal with bad air pretty effectively as well, but most people prefer a small air purifier to a whole bunch of plants.

u/roushimsx · 1 pointr/gamecollecting

You could try picking up an air purifier (like this one) for the room (might need to scale up to a larger one depending on the space), but you're still going to want to frequently vacuum the place. If you're not already vacuuming at least once a week, you need to up your game!

Candles would work, but incense seems to be stronger. It would probably do a better job at masking the smell until you can fix the issue.

Here are some of my favorite scents. IMO, they are manly but don't have that overcompensation aspect I associate with overt scents like "leather," "pipe tobacco," "Man Town," etc.

Sandalwood rose incense

Sage & Citrus candle

Applewood candle

You might also think about an air purifier. A lot of house plants do a really great job at air purification too, and they can really make a place look classy.

u/Berean_Katz · 1 pointr/NoStupidQuestions

Although I'm not an expert, it definitely helps to have ventilation ducts running through your house, along with HVAC units to recycle the air inside with brand new air. Also, the type of flooring you have seems to make worlds of difference. My house in Japan is made of straight-up wood, whereas the houses I lived in the US are made of...laminate flooring, I believe? Also, if you have an attic, that's a major cause for dust collection; plus pets and number of human occupants.

I've been doing some research, and HEPA air purifiers can help filter the air in your home. I'm planning on buying one for my Japanese house. Here's a link to the one I'm ordering: http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B000N9CPQK/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?qid=1397879924&sr=1-1&pi=SX200_QL40

u/caffeinegoddess · 1 pointr/trees

If you're doing it in just one small room, you could probably get a portable Hepa filter. It picks up the smoke while it's still in the air so less settles on the furniture and stuff.

This is the one I have for my apartment room. Originally got it for my seasonal allergies. I keep it by my door under the fire alarm and smoke with the window open and a sploof and I rarely need to spray anything.

u/Spongi · 1 pointr/AskReddit

Check under furniture, behind boxes etc. Cat may be pooping in unauthorized areas.

Might want to invest in a small air filter system for the room the litter box is in it if bothers you as much as it sounds like it does. Something like this.

Do NOT use your HVAC system as an air filter. It will lower efficiency, cost more to use overall increasing your bills, wear out components, decrease your comfort, and doesn't work when it's off anyway. My HVAC blower motor (only) uses nearly 400w of power. A purpose built air filter I have uses less than 5w and actually cleans the air.

Get a dedicated and purpose built air filter. Amazon has dozens and they work far better and cost less to run. I have two of these and they are fine:

It has 3 fan settings. I keep it on 3 (2 is ok, but 1 is super quiet) as it's a fantastic white noise machine!


The hepa filter is replaceable, and so is the carbon filter. You don't need to use the UV setting. I did until it expired (UV bulbs typically stop producing uv radiation after 12mth from being turned on . I'm not replacing the bulb.


I buy the generic hepa filter now, as I'm cheap lol it's still catching a ton of dust. I use a good quality of filter (I buy in bulk on Amazon for a huge savings) in my furnace, so them combined do a great job. I don't have crazy dust issues at all.

The person I love the most is my son (my Mom is a strong competitor for her life sacrifices to keep me safe and happy and for just being my damn Mother, she's amazing and my best friend). Cliche as it sounds, he is my world. Without him, I'd be nothing, and I honestly would not be here. My son is 19 months old, and every day is worth living because of him. Every breath is worth taking because of him. My life was empty before I had him. My reason to live is for him. My son is super fucking cute, and smart as shit for his age too. He learned everything SO early (rolling over at 2 months, sipping from a straw at 4 months, walking by 8 months). He amazes me every day with the things he's learned that I don't realize he's learned yet. He teaches me new things every day. I feel like every holiday, birthday, even normal day has more meaning and more life in it than it used to before I had him. There's this amazing feeling when this kid looks at me, smiles, and runs over to me with his arms out. And he gives me little bitty kisses even when he doesn't want to that make me feel so important to him. You probably didn't want a wall of text but I can't express how amazing having a kid is to me, having MY kid is to me, and how freaking incredible the kid is.

u/lindsaybug12 · 1 pointr/Vaping

I haven't had this issue with vapor specifically, but the combination of two cats and occasional indoor smoke had us waking up congested and vacuuming/dusting all the time from the overall poor air quality. I picked up a HEPA type air filter which does an amazing job since it picks up anything 3 microns or bigger. It keeps our air clear and smelling fresh even while we vape heavily, so it may help you as well. It also does a great job of reducing dust and pet debris if that's a concern for you.

Does anyone have a reliable figure as to the size of vapor particles? That may help you see if this will work, since I believe most devices made specifically to clear vapor from the air work the same way.

Proper air circulation is best. However you achieve it, depends on the space. The fact of the matter is, you need fresh air to ventilate properly.

My desk/work space is in the basement. Have a couple windows down here, but proper air circulation has to be forced. I use an air purifier found here

Works for vape, as well as making the air down here a bit fresher. That said, Don't blow your vape directly into it. When you first start it up, sure because why not, but don't make it a habit.

I wouldn't put stock in something made specifically for getting rid of vapor personally. If not, I'd invest in an icare/myjet/one of the less loud setups. They're definitely handy

u/virtualmilkshake · 1 pointr/lifehacks

Absolutely!

Here is my model. This would be the newer version.

They run about $100 and it’s as easy as plugging it into the wall and turning it on as needed. I’ve used it for cooking smells as well as pet odors (in my dog’s last days, he had terrible ear infections and went to the bathroom everywhere), and I was satisfied with how it worked. It’s also supposed to work well for preventing allergens and germs, so I’ll kick it on during peak allergy times and whenever I’m sick. It was a gift that I never imagined I would use as much as I do, and I’d highly recommend it!

u/SingleWagon · 1 pointr/Allergies

I bought this

which says its CADR rated 100+ for medium size room. I think that should be more then enough for a small bedroom

u/ASmittyy · 1 pointr/Calgary

I’ve been using this germguardian for the past 2 years, run 24/7 and it hasn’t had a single hiccup. I find it’s quite effective. Filters are about $30 every 6 months and the pre-filter should be vacuumed monthly. It used to be Wirecutters ‘budget pick’ but it has now been replaced by a smaller tabletop unit. Check out their top picks here

u/piperandcharlie · 1 pointr/AskWomen

From my parents/family: A new coat, already purchased. Since we're living in my in-laws' attic with 4 cats, a HEPA filter. We could always use Petco, Target, or Amazon giftcards too - litter and food for 4 cats is a big part of our budget.

From fiance: wireless Bluetooth speaker for our attic room. Also, for my birthday (11/29) and Xmas gift, he's paying for our winter photoshoot :)

u/Sti_mulus · 1 pointr/BuyItForLife

Had this guy running for about 3 years with the only time it being off was to change the filter. Solid.
GermGuardian AC4845


Given the track record I've had with them, you could get the higher end version since it still fits your budget AC9200

u/apiccirilli · 1 pointr/3Dprinting

Nothing that I came across when I was looking for something similar, unfortunately. I found that same enclosure and it seems insanely expensive for what it is.

What I might suggest is to have the printer in a room that you can close off and ideally has outside ventilation, with a HEPA filter like this:

http://www.amazon.com/GermGuardian-AC4825-Cleaning-Reduction-22-Inch/dp/B004VGIGVY/ref=zg_bs_510192_1

The studies that are out there right now show a drastic dive in ultra-fine particle concentrations within 10-30 minutes after a print is completed, so as long as the filter runs just a little after the print is finished, the air should be clear. Add in a webcam in the room and something like Octoprint for total remote control.

Hopefully some other printers with HEPA/carbon filtered enclosures will start hitting the market soon.

u/zeyezai · 1 pointr/LifeProTips

Do you think this will work?

It has HEPA filter, carbon filter, and charcoal filter. I'm just not quite sure how effective it would be. Don't want to spend $130 and still end up with the upper floor smelling like smoke. My dad closes the washroom door when he smokes so that's a plus. However, the smoke/odor still comes out from the bottom of the door.

u/Beeftin · 1 pointr/homeowners

We've got an air purifier running in the bedroom nearly 24/7. It seems to have been helping and I've just recently started changing the filter every 3 months instead of 6. Can't say whether I've noticed a difference on the days I forget to run it or not.

We haven't noticed any moisture anywhere but if there were any it would be down the basement. We had a foundation leak last spring but cleaned and repaired it and dealt with the external drainage as well so it doesn't reoccur. Other than that I haven't noticed anything on walls or floors, our house is pleasantly dry even during the really rainy weather we've had lately.

Washing the pillows is a good idea, can't hurt!

u/imnotjonsnow · 1 pointr/AskDocs

Sounds like allergies, or your body adjusting to the atmosphere. Keep your windows closed and try an air filter like this one.

Some might say it won't work but I know my brother had some success with one when he had symptoms like it with his kids.

Step 1 - Reduce the mold in the house.
Dry the area, dehumidifier in basement and living area even.

Step 2 - Reudce the mold in the bedroom.
Get a hepa air purifier for the bedroom - run it 24/7.
Make the room air tight if possible. Have an intake fan sucking air in and use a HEPA filter on that.

These charcoal-based deodorizers get rave reviews. I haven't used one of these, but I have used a similar thing filled with cedar shavings to great success.

u/wrngway · 1 pointr/VacuumCleaners

Based on the specs the Active Airclean captures 99.95% of particles down to 0.5 microns. The HEPA is 99.99% down to 0.3 microns. You should be able to find some charts to see what types of particles would fall in this range. Pet dander should be caught fine on either of these. 0.5 microns is the lower end range for bacteria.

I have a Miele S5 with the HEPA. With 2 dogs and a cat though, I'll be trying the Active Airclean filter as I get some pet smells when I run it.

I've also seen it suggested to put one of these in the dust collection bin. While it'll help with odors and let you use a HEPA as well, it also takes up some space in there.

Haven't tried it with my hydration pack yet, but I got some little charcoal bags to put in my gym bag with my sweaty clothes. They work surprisingly well.

u/JustinCole · 1 pointr/bjj

Sometimes that funk just doesn't go away. I've had it happen with other clothing, but not a gi yet.

If the vinegar didn't work to get the smell out I would just continue to wash it regularly (after every roll). Also try drying it in a dryer on the very lowest heat setting, or "air dry" if you have that option, and throw in a few dryer sheets to try and absorb the smell.

You could also try charcoal. I bought these on Amazon and keep them in my gym bag.

u/puddle_stomper · 1 pointr/BarefootRunning

I've read that Oxyclean is good for getting rid of stink. This is my routine for keeping them smelling clean:

  1. You probably already know this one, but wash your feet before wearing them.
  2. If you can afford them, pick up a few pairs of Injinji wool socks. They'll help keep your feet more dry than not wearing socks, and the wool is naturally antimicrobial. Their Run 2.0 socks are super thin and slick, so you might try those if you don't have much room. They aren't wool, but they're better than no socks at all.
  3. Don't let your feet get too sweaty in them (socks help here); I air mine out as quickly as possible as soon as I start to notice moisture building up. Sometimes, it's just a matter of slipping my heel out for a bit if I'm wearing them at my desk at work. If using for running, put them in front of a high power small fan to air out faster when you get home.
  4. Insert charcoal/bamboo deodorizer bags inside after they're dry. This is what I have, but I'm pretty sure I just bought that specific set because it was cheap at the time. I keep them in my shoes whenever I'm not wearing them.
  5. Once a month or so (or more if needed), soak VFF in Oxyclean/water mixture for a couple hours, then let air dry. If it's summer, I let them dry in the sun, but in the winter I just use a small fan.
  6. Set deodorizer bags and VFFs in back windshield of my car during a sunny week for a couple of days about once a month as well. The UV light is supposed to help kill bacteria and will "reset" the deodorizer bags.

Hello BIFL! I am moving into an apartment with 2 windows facing railroad tracks and will be needing an air purifier or 2. I came across the Coway AP-1512HH Mighty Air Purifier which seemed like a great option! What does BIFL think and do you guys have any other suggestions?

I haven't been wearing a mask, though I agree with you on the usage of them. Luckily, I've had very limited exposure to the outdoor air. Still, this shit is bad.

For the indoor filter, I can tell you the Coway AP-1512HH works well.

u/ImperfectlyInformed · 1 pointr/Allergies

Probably good. https://www.missionallergy.com/ is the most commonly-recommended. I also have their comforter.

I use Coway https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00BTKAPUU/ref=oh_aui_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 - it's won some awards, seems good. You can get aftermarket filters which are pretty affordable. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B076JJ42V7/ref=sspa_dk_detail_0?psc=1

Make sure to clean your prefilter routinely. It'll tell you when to replace your other filters.

I have a small studio (around 350 sq ft); I run https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07MXDRTKJ/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 continuously and it'll cost me about $20/month - I'm able to get to the upper 30% relative humidity. After I've done this for a few months I might relax it a bit and target 45% or something since 35-40% is pretty dry.

Sorry for the delay, LMK if you have any other questions.

u/Skarhle · 1 pointr/Calgary

I have a Coway Mighty and live in an old apartment that has a lot of areas smoke can leak in; very fresh and clean inside. Also have two cats that shed and you'd never notice. Parents honestly currently love hanging at my place even though they have cat allergies. It makes that much of a difference.

If you invest even $150 in something decent it's worth it. Mine was pricey but has a 4 stage filtration system, only change filters once a year for around $60. Make's a hell of a difference whether it's smoker, pets, chemicals, etc.

u/SharePertinent · 1 pointr/electronic_cigarette

If you are so inclined, buy an air purifier. I have one of these at home for cat allergies, because of course my girlfriend has 3 of the furry little razor claws.. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00BTKAPUU/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

This thing is great. I have a huge living room, not sure if its quite shop sized but it might be close - and this thing will suck a cloud from above my head straight into the corner where it sits. I've chain vaped on purpose just to mess with it and it went from hotbox territory to next to nothing in just a few mins.

u/rjpauloski · 1 pointr/BuyItForLife

I bought two of the Coway AP-1512HH Mighty Air Purifier with True HEPA about 6 months ago.

https://smile.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00BTKAPUU/

These units have excellent reviews and independent tests of performance and you can find them costing $160 every few months which is an excellent price for such a good unit.

Very happy with them. I keep one in the bedroom and one in the living room. They run on auto mode 24/7 and probably cost $3/month in electricity. Annual replacement filter is $50.

Consider 5 year cost of ownership on air cleaners. The AP-1512 was the cheapest I could find for the high performance you get with the unit.

u/hostilemu · 1 pointr/homeowners

Find someone who uses the Rotobrush or similar equipment on the air ducts, there is huge difference between that and just the typical "super" vacuum trucks. http://imgur.com/a/ebR1Z

These are great air purifiers: http://www.amazon.com/Honeywell-True-Allergen-Remover-HPA300/dp/B00BWYO53G/

Also change the HVAC filter, buy the good ones, change it before and after the duct cleaning.

We also installed this, it works really well and was super simple to install.. (Bought from AirstarSupply, they support the warranty and its not a knock-off) http://www.amazon.com/REME-RGF-Air-Purification-System/dp/B00WSUK12M

Change the filters in your vacuum cleaner. If you have the funds I highly suggest a Neato (not a Roomba, do your research) that will run every day.

u/blood-guts-angelcake · 1 pointr/cats

My boyfriend is also allergic to cats, but we decided to try fostering two kittens to see how it goes because like your girlfriend I begged him to see if we could find a solution because I love cats. We've had our kittens now for a month and he's been taking a Zyrtec every morning, we vacuum and dust much more frequently, and most importantly we bought a HEPA filter which has made a huge difference. (Link here if interested - https://www.amazon.com/Honeywell-True-Allergen-Remover-HPA300/dp/B00BWYO53G/ref=sr_1_fkmr0_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1498754741&sr=8-4-fkmr0&keywords=honeywell+allergen+plus+air+filter+20x25x1 ) It's a little pricey but it has essentially eliminated any discomfort for him. Before when he was around cats he would get scratchy eyes, wheezy, and tight chest. We live in about a 800 sqft apartment and keep it in the living room and it is super effective. We also never let them in our bedroom so he isn't sleeping near the dander. If you don't want to commit to adopting a cat in case your allergies are problematic, I definitely recommend fostering from a local shelter! We've really enjoyed it and it's much less of a commitment in case those solutions don't work out for you. Best of luck, & hope it works out!

Save yourself money on the OEM filters and carbon, buy these and save money. I've noticed zero difference and my cabinets tend to stay cleaner from dust with these for some reason. The Honeywell carbon filters you have to end up cutting anyway which ruins them and sends dust everywhere.

u/mrskwrl · 1 pointr/BuyItForLife

dehumidifier. Mine smells a bit plasticky, but I wonder if that's because I used a new PVC shower curtain and the smell got trapped (I've bought a non-pvc curtain now because the smell was so bad). However it does work well for my small dead-end bathroom (collects 1/4-1/2 cup of water overnight after two people shower and hang wet towels up).

I also have this filter, but it has it's problems. Primarily it's not true hepa, but also it is quite small and noisy for a medium to large bedroom. It collects a lot of dust in the filter, but not efficient for the room. I definitely recommend something else like this Honeywell. My mom has one with her 3 cats and it actually works. I have doubts about mine, but I guess that's what I get for cheaping out. Definitely avoid anything that's not true Hepa. I bought a Honeywell one previously where all it had was 'statically loaded' corrugated plastic--utter scam and 100% useless.

u/heelflipper · 1 pointr/poshmark

This is an extreme solution, you probably wouldn't do for a one off item but if you're trying to refurb stuff that smells like smoke to sell it can pay for itself.

Purchase a shock ozone treatment device like this: Ozone Generator

Enclose in large storage container. Hole in side for power. Seal with plumbers putty. Seal lid with weather stripping gasket. Run for about 30 minutes.

Works wonders pulling smells out of about anything.

Would suggest further research before you go this route but it's a pretty effective solution.

It has performed well, but is maintenance intensive. I have replaced the plates about once a year due to the humidity here on the Texas Gulf Coast. Other than that, it is great! It works well for removing the smell of smoke in my truck as well, just run the truck with the AC on recirculate for 20 minutes and it smells like new. If you run it too long in a small room or vehicle, it builds up a film on your windows and other surfaces.

Get an Ozone generator of amazon make sure its at least 4500mg/hr. Close all windows in the car and the doors. Turn it on for 2 hours, come back at around 1h 30 min and turn on the car, max ac vents set to recirculate. Let that run with the ozone generator on for the last 30 min. Take the ozone generator out when finished, leave the windows closed and the car on with vents blowing for another 30 min. Turn off the car and open all doors to vent the ozone. Done

I bypassed the 2 hour timer and put a 24 hour one on. Now I can run 2 hours on 1hour off until I unplug it.

I was looking for this comment. The tar etc will be there to stay, unless you pull your hvac ducts apart and manually scrub them down.

Honestly dawn dishsoap works amazing with a brillo sponge thing. I smoke, not in my house, but in my 3 season patio. Every summer it takes me about 6 hours of scrubbing to get all the tar and crap off all the windows, walls, ceiling, fans, etc. I should mention I have 24 windows floor to ceiling on my patio, one reason it takes so damn long.

On the topic of ozone generators in general. I had a small unit that was an "air purifier" and ozone generator I got off ebay. The "air purifier" I'm pretty sure was just a fan that literally did nothing. I have cats and their litter boxes are in my basement, so I would have the ozone generator go off at 4am for 20-30 min a few times a week just to cut down litter smell. I ended up buying this after it crapped out on me https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00JAP7388/ just want to say, HOLY CRAP this thing is powerful. It's almost too powerful to use for me. It will wake me up in the middle of the night 3 floors up with the smell of ozone. Maybe close up all the windows in your house, take your air filter out of your hvac, shove the o3 generator in there, turn the hvac fan on continuous, and leave for a day.

moopos is right. your curry problem will seem puny after you introduce it to an ozone machine. I actually bought [this one] (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00JAP7388/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1) and it's dominated the smell form day one. I put it on for another day for good measure.

This will be quicker and require much less effort.

u/strickt · 1 pointr/WildernessBackpacking

The absolute BEST way to remove smell from boots is an ozone generator. It gets the smell out of ANYTHING. THIS is what I have.

The way It works is to put it and your boots in a small, confined space. Like a large box. I use a plastic storage tub. And turn it on. Leave the room (ozone can be deadly) and let it run for an hour or two. Not only will it kill the mildew brewing in your boots it will also remove the smell.

I'll do the same thing with tents, down bags, pads etc. Hang them all in the bathroom. Turn that baby on. Wait a few hours and boom, no smell.

Its one of the best non backpacking gear purchases I've made. So worth it.

u/FeralFizgig · 1 pointr/HomeImprovement

Honestly surprised you can't visually locate the spot unless it's hidden behind something like an appliance or HVAC unit.

You can get a decent ozone generator for $75-to-$100 on Amazon, which generally does a good job at knocking out organic-based smells (mold, urine, smoke, etc.). I've got one of those tiny 30-minute tap models in my main bathroom, and it works better than the vent for odors (though this may be more a statement about my vent).

In any case, I hear you can even rent them from industrial equipment rental places. But for such a relatively cheap price for a versatile device that may prove useful again if you have pets, then buying one might be a good option.

EDIT: For reference, here's the model I have on my wish list. Reading the reviews may give you an idea of its usefulness.

EDIT2: Ozone is harmful in large conentrations. It has an idealized half-life of 3 days, but that goes down to about 11 hours with 50% relative humidity, and can be cut further with agitation (blowing a fan around the space). For a basement application, run such a device for an hour or two (they have built-in timers) with the area sealed off, then either air out or prevent critters and people from using the space for a couple of days.

u/8bitterror · 1 pointr/BabyBumps

I went through the same thing for weeks. The box may be clean of litter, but my super-sniffer nose can smell everything!

I finally figured out the right combo to combat the smell. I bought of of these, and set it up next to the litter box: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01728NLRG/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

And I switched to this litter: https://www.chewy.com/arm-hammer-litter-double-duty/dp/51973

Works like a charm! The litter box is right behind the sofa but now I can sit there and not smell a thing.

Good luck!

u/SeagateSG1 · 1 pointr/Futurology

I did recently have one done. It came back that I'm severely allergic to dust and mold, as well as a few other outdoor things to varying degrees (pigweed, ragweed, sheep sorrel, bayberry, birch, maple, mulberry, sycamore, cottonwood, cat, cockroach, grass mix, grass smut, alternaria, penicillium, and mucor racemosus, plus the dust mites)

I've already done a lot of what you said, to little effect. My nose has been an ongoing issue this year. Earlier in the year I had deviated septum surgery as well as endoscopic sinus surgery to scrape everything clean. Prior to that I just got really clogged at some point, mucus was draining into my throat and lungs and I was coughing it up, etc.

After the surgery I was perfectly fine for probably about 4-5 months. I breathed fine and honestly it was incredible. Then a bit over a month ago, I went on a cruise to the Bahamas and when I got back I started getting stuffed up nose symptoms again. Returned to the doctor, they looked up there with their flashlight and said it doesn't look like a sinus infection, which led to the allergy testing.

Since then (about 2 weeks) I've done everything I've read and can think of. I've used both loratadine and Zyrtec, and honestly neither of these are lessening my symptoms whatsoever, which makes me think it might not be allergy related at all. I also think it's weird that the congestion is always on just the right side of my face, whereas the left side is completely clear, which is at least something.

I've cleaned my entire apartment from top to bottom, scrubbed the walls, gotten new pillows, I've always washed my sheets regularly. Used the vacuum to sweep my couch. Regularly replace the air filter in the ac unit, complex gives us these for free. Got a mold kit testing the air quality right now. Ive lived in this apartment for about three years now. The hot water heater broke at one point and soaked part of the carpet, but the pros all came and fans were set up under the carpet for a few days, but still I'm testing the air quality like I said.

Before my surgery when I was really suffering, I did order a pretty high end air purifier (Coway AP-1512HH Mighty Air Purifier, White https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01728NLRG/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_xPh6BbDATAW67) and had it in here for about a week. It had settings on it that supposedly indicated whether the air quality was good, medium bad, or severe bad, and it never indicated anything but good. I ended up sending it back because I needed the money for rent that month, never re ordered cause I just figured the problem lay elsewhere.

I live in Florida now for three years, all in this apartment, after growing up in the north for 20+ years. I've also tried Flonase like my doc recommended. Breathe right strips help me breathe at night and alleviate some symptoms, as does Vicks, but once the strip comes off, everything goes to hell again.

The most recent discovery I've made is that sometimes the saline nasal spray can kind of alleviate things for a little bit, so I've been spraying a lot of that up my nose since there isn't supposed to be a limit on how much of that to use. But sometimes it doesn't do a damn thing either. Of course I've done the sinus rinsing too with the Neilmed squeeze bottle, again sometimes that's helpful and other times I feel more clogged than before.

Again, even though I've been diagnosed with these allergies, I just think it's odd none of these antihistamines are helping at all. The ENT has an allergy shots/drops program they're recommending, but I wanted to come home first after my appointment and try to clean things up before going into that. Like I said, for those first 4-5 months after surgery I was perfect, and then things took a turn for the worse for whatever reason, right around the time of that cruise, which I find suspicious, but they said it ain't infected in there and it's been 6 weeks now, so I would think if it was sickness I'd have kicked it by now.

Only other thing I can figure is all the humidity is outta the air now cause Florida season changed over, and my nose is not liking this drier weather. Nothing I used or the way I cleaned changed from when I was feeling good to now.

Sorry if that was a lot, but I appreciated your indepth response and any insight you might have. There's so many fucking variables to this thing it's maddening trying to narrow a cause or solution down

All I can tell you is - follow the universal truth - You get what you pay for. Of course there are a few exceptions, I've found great quality products for cheap, but those gems are far and few between right?

That being said, you are on the right track. After reading reviews I ended up going with this filter and then I got this fan and so far they've been great. The speed controller is a nice touch. When it comes to carbon filters, they are mostly all the same in terms of design, so if you go with a cheaper brand to save 10 bucks I really don't think you'll be hurting yourself or your set up, but things like fans, mechanical devices, i wouldn't cheap out on.

This is the filter and this is the fan. The fan says 351 CFM but I couldn't find the rating for the filter. One person in the questions said it was 400 CFM though.

u/achtagon · 1 pointr/VacuumCleaners

First, I'd caution against trying to make your furnace work harder than it needs to. I've been down that road and had issues ranging from whistling to shutting down due to overheat during cold times and frosting up in hot ones. Get the most basic pleated and you'll still trap a lot.

I then moved to a mix of air cleaners, and the big round Honeywell are the top performers but loud. I use mine when I'm doing construction projects or moving furniture or major cleaning. This proved to be very effective, quiet, and long lasting. I tossed my first one after 15 years of being on full time. For replacement filters I would vaccum out the front every few months and then when the expensive HEPA one was grey and stinky I bought the high end furnace filters exactly twice as big and cut them in half with a scissors, and used painters tape to seal in place.

A good vaccum will do a lot to help if you have carpets. A bagged Oreck with upgraded HEPA bags would be my choice, there are others but be sure to go bagged.

u/thefirstuser · 1 pointr/AirPurifiers

Go for Winex. Great prices and equal/better than TruAir.

​

My TruAir units were quite loud and didn't do that much for a 350 sq. ft. room. I also like the versatility of the Winex filters: I vacuum the outer filter, wash the inner, and then pay for the Hepa once a year.

u/Ryanraptor2011 · 1 pointr/trees

If you're willing to make an investment this is a great fan. I used it at a friends house and if you blow in the direction of it it will suck up the smoke and will be gone instantly.

Air Purifier

u/TheJD · 1 pointr/HomeImprovement

Make sure the room is as sealed as you can get it (but not perfect, usually the cracks around the door is enough). Install a blower that will suck air from the room and force it outside. The idea is to make strong negative pressure so air from the rest of the house is being forced in and then exhausted out of the house and never have air from the smoking room seeping into the rest of the house. Glossy walls are easier for cleaning and you'll want leather chairs or metal chairs, anything that isn't cloth-like otherwise it'll absorb the smell. No carpeting for the same reasons. An air filter will also help keep the smell inside the room down when you're not smoking in it. HEPA filters with activated carbon like this running for a day or two after a smoking session should eliminate most of the odors.

When I have cigar-friends over we smoke in my dining room which is all hardwood with a window fan exhausting and I just vacuum afterwards and run an air filter for a couple days and the smell is always gone.

u/Letlas · 1 pointr/AugustBumpers2017

u/ddunknjay · 1 pointr/FoodAllergies

Thanks for the advice! It's not pessimistic at all. I removed the mold by taken steps given to me by my old pool boy/landscaper. He gave me a list of products and procedures he uses to remove the mold on other houses for the cheap. I also did seal the section of the house the mold was coming from. I knew it was from a water leak just because the pattern of the black mold was dripping like a waterfall from a crack near the window.

I also knew there was a humidity problem because there was a tiny bit in my laundry room. While I was treating the black mold for about 2 weeks, I also installed a Winix 5500-2 air purifier and a Haier dehumidifier in a 180sqft space and they've been running autonomously ever since.

Also I can't do much about my landlord situation because my landlord is my dad and he's letting me live there for $600 a month (utilities not included) while I'm in college. In my area next to New York NY, that's ridiculously cheap and I don't have anywhere else I can go. I even told him about the black mold problem, but he told me he has no money to fix it. I thought about taking him to court, but he also would remove the auto-insurance from my car (which will cost me another 339). I'll probably end up evicted in the end, and living in my car again.

u/tkbisign · 1 pointr/BuyItForLife

I've used the box fan and filter method years ago. It's great, but loud. Definitely the best bang for your buck. When I did it, I would use this filter, this crappy filter to extend life of the more expensive one and a box fan.

Today, I use the older model of Winix 5500-2 and wash the reusable filter periodically. I've heard of people buying the 5300 and using aftermarket filters too. This is in the $100-200 range, but it's definitely more convenient.

It might not help you find the exact cause but i think a small room air purifer like this is a win win. Less dusting to do, sheets need changing less regularly, noise helps me sleep, i snore less and less stuffed up in the mornings.

u/merinis · 1 pointr/DomesticBirds

If you want to try a few things before you commit to getting rid of the bird...

Consider a high end HEPA approved filter. To get a HEPA tag, they have to be able to remove 90% or more of small particles. This one is quiet, doesn't make stuff that could hurt the bird, and will help across the board if you stick one in the birds room.

Change ALL of the filters in your home. It could be that your symptoms are getting worse because your home's ventilation system has bad filters and is working less and less. Buy yourself some kind of filtering face mask before you do it, those filters are going to be packed full of Fuck You.

Finally, if you DO decide to part with the animal, be sure to post it on r/parrots about it, they have an adoption list.

Please allow me to chime in.

Just bought a Winix 5500-2 for our household after hours of research. Our budget was $200.

Too early to tell how durable it is, but it has made our house smell like fresh outside air without opening windows (we have a dog, we run our humidifier at night so it gets stuffy, we cook everyday).

Spend some money and get a couple large-room hepa dust filters/air purifiers.

Something like this: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01D8DAYII/

We have the older model, the filters aren't too expensive ($100/year'ish?), and it dramatically reduces the amount of dust that settles in the room.

*Well, since the downvotes poured in overnight, guess I should clarify. By 'We', I mean me and my gf, who has a dust allergen. I don't sell these things, I just happen to have a couple in the house.
