All Answers: Answer #1of course if we made it carefully - answered by attiakhoudry Answer #2Alan: Stay away from all "air cleaners" that emit even the smallest amounts of ozone. Ozone is nota part of clean air, it is a highly toxic gas. Proponents of ozone will tell you it is allnatural, well arsenic is also all natural but yadon't eat it on your Cheerios in the morning! Ifyou are thinking about something that will cleanthe air, pick a machine that doesn't throw toxicgasses back into the air. Look for an allergyfilter that is not made of plastic and does notuse glues in the filter itself. Also, be sure topick a unit that is the right size for the amountof air you want to clean. Don't look at squarefootage that the manufacturer claims the machinecan clean, because you live in 3 dimensions not 2!Figure the volume of the room (length x width xheight) and then take that number and divide it bythe amount of air the filter's motor can move inone minute (the manufacturer will state the air inCFM) and that will tell you how long to get oneair exchange. Shoot for at least 8 air exchangesper hour. I am sending you a link to an articlethat tells you in detail how to evaulate alldifferent kinds of allergy filters made by allkinds of companies.Don't get ripped off!
