Chemical fumes and odors may seem to be harmless to the average person, but
there are some smells or fumes that can cause even the healthiest person harm
and air purifiers can help.
When a person is exposed to a specific chemical that is known to be an
annoyance, such as acetone or formaldehyde, he or she can sometimes have a
severe reaction such as a headache or dizziness or can cause a slight reaction
such as watery eyes or coughing. Whatever the reaction may be, many people find
chemical fumes and smells to be a nuisance, especially if it is in their own
residence. For people who suffer from Multiple Chemical Sensitivity, the
chemical smell is not only a nuisance but can be very harmful. People with this
respiratory condition often have severe reactions to the chemicals that are
present in everyday life. Allerair Air Purifiers is a company that saw the problem with
chemicals and the sensitivity to chemicals and created the 4000 Vocarb model of
air purifier. The Green family from Bayard, New Mexico have become a big fan of
4000 Vocarb air
purifiers due to the difference
they have made in their home's
indoor air.
The Green family was excited to buy beautiful and new carpet for their living
room a few months ago. The carpet looked great in their room but soon the family
found that they weren't impressed by the smell of the new carpet. The chemicals
that were used to install the carpet were still so fresh and new on the floor
that they were seeping up into the air and being breathed in by the family.
Although the carpet looked great, the Greens never got to enjoy it because the
whole living room smelled of chemicals and they weren't comfortable relaxing in
that room anymore. Mr. Green even complained that his eyes were itchy and watery
due to the smell of the chemical fumes. The children also felt that after
spending some time in the living room with the chemical fume smell, their
sinuses bothered them. They often had fits of coughing after spending time in
the room because of the irritation of the chemical smell on their nasal and air
passageways.
After deciding that he couldn't deal with the chemical smell any longer, Mr.
Green started researching different air purifiers and how they could help in
this situation. He soon chose the Allerair 4000 Vocarb as the unit perfect for
the chemical odor. 4000 Vocarb air purifiers specialize in removing
chemicals fumes and odors from indoor air. They contain a pre filter that is able
to remove any large particles that may be present in the air. The HEPA filter
can then remove any smaller particles such as pollen or dust. The air is then
taken through 10 pounds of activated carbon. This media is able to trap and
destroy odors and chemical fumes in the air. The air purifier can remove
chemicals such as mold toxins, sulfur dioxide, tobacco smoke and ammonia. Once
the air is released from the 4000 Vocarb, it not only is free of any particles
or allergens but it is fresh and clean and contains no chemicals or odors.
Mr. Green knew 4000 Vocarb air purifiers were great for his family's situation
because it could handle a room that is 1200 square feet in size, making it a
great fit for the living room. These air purifiers are also small enough that
they could be
slipped away into a corner of the room and don't draw in a lot of attention or
require a lot of maintenance. Once the family ran the air purifier in the living
room for a few days, the annoying chemical fumes from the carpet seemed to
disappear. Mr. Green no longer had to deal with his red and itchy eyes and the
children could spend the whole day in the living room without so much as a
cough. Air purifiers can improve the quality of life.
