Location: Riverton, Wyoming
Odors can be the most prominent way for residents to know that their indoor air quality is not good. When a homeowner smells odors inside a home, these odors can not only be an embarrassing nuisance but can also be hazardous to residents' health. Strong odors can sometimes be caused by the presence of chemicals in the air. The constant exposure to these airborne chemical particles can cause symptoms of sensitivity such as itchy or watery eyes, a sore throat, headache and nausea. In order to avoid these symptoms, many people who have odors in their homes are turning to an effective air purifier to clear the smell away. Allerair's 6000 Vocarb is one model which has a widespread filtration system with the ability and specifications to remove all chemicals and odors from the air.
The Corogin family from Riverton, Wyoming found the effectiveness of the filtration system inside the air purifier to be helpful for their home. The family had recently gotten most of the old carpets in their home replaced with new and beautiful carpet. Their family room looked great thanks to the new carpet and the family wanted to spend most of their time in this room. They also wanted to show off the room to their friends and family. Although the Corogin family was excited about their new carpet, they were noticing a chemical odor coming from the carpet. Newly installed carpet and padding is known to outgas many chemicals that are used inside it such as formaldehyde. Before the family could enjoy their newly remodeled family room, they knew they had to do something about the smell. The Corogins turned to an air purifier which they knew they could depend on to remove these chemical smells from the air.
The 6000 Vocarb was the perfect air purifier for their situation because it specializes in the removal of volatile chemicals. The unit's media and filtration system can remove chemicals such as formaldehyde and ammonia which are commonly those chemicals outgased by newly installed carpet. The air purifier can clean a room that is 1800 square feet in size or smaller so it could easily handle the size of the Corogin's family room. The main chemical smell in the room seemed to be the formaldehyde from the bonding agent used in the glue of the installed carpet. This odor was easily absorbed by the ultra activated carbon inside the air purifier. The media is proven to be able to remove most volatile chemicals and odors from the air before it is released from the unit.
The air purifier caused a major difference in the air quality of the Corogin's family room. The chemical odors were no longer present in the air and the family was able to breathe easily in the room without the unpleasant odors. They were also able to show off their family room to friends and family without being embarrassed by the chemical smell that the carpet was causing in the room. The filtration system and media inside the air purifier was able to absorb all of the strong odors that the formaldehyde was causing to be present in the room. The family saw a change in the air quality inside the room and it felt fresher and smelled cleaner. Finally the beauty of the new carpets matched the beauty of the quality air inside the family room.
