I see a lot of people sharing recommendations for making this kind of DIY air filtration system. Since I have been using one of these for several years now, I have some practical comments and caveats:

Their useful lifespan is relatively short. A set of filters is good for maybe 60 to 90 days before it becomes so soiled as to be counterproductive, probably less if you have furry pets.

What the filters pull out of the air is deposited on their surface. You'll want to be careful not to touch the filters and keep kids and pets away from them. If possible, you should also put the unit on some stand or surface you can easily clean.

Removing and replacing the filters is nasty. The outer layers of the filters get filthy, and removing the filters involves using a utility knife to slash the tape holding the thing together, which will dislodge big clouds of crap. This needs to be done outside if at all possible. You'll want to wear a respirator and disposable gloves, and old clothes you can immediately launder (or bag and dispose).

You'll need to clean the box fan itself when changing filters. You'll want a can of compressed air to blow dust out of the fan motor, and should clean the blades, grilles, and frame as best you can before replacing the filters.

High PFR furnace filters aren't cheap. At a typical big box store, two high-PFR filters of adequate size will cost you at least $35 to $40 USD. You can bring down the per-filter cost by ordering in bulk online, but that costs more upfront.

These units may not be practical for physically disabled people. If the prospect of picking up and (gingerly) carrying the complete unit is physically daunting, if you have limited fine motor skills, or if you have no way to carry the unit outside to change the filters, this is probably not a good option.

If you need a short-term air filtration solution, such as when there's a lot of wildfire ash in the air, these kinds of filters are relatively cheap and work well if you do a reasonably conscientious job of assembling them and changing soiled filters. However, over longer periods, their cost advantage relative to a HEPA filter air purifier begins to erode because the filters are more expensive and shorter-lived.

A HEPA filter air purifier costs significantly more upfront, and where the air quality is bad, they may be in short supply. However, they're much easier, and usually cheaper, to maintain. Generally, they have a "pre-filter" to catch dust and lint, reducing the load on the HEPA filter(s) so that the latter's useful life is close to a year. (The pre-filter needs to be changed about every three months.) Furthermore, the filters are internal, so you aren't likely to touch them or dislodge their contents except when changing filters, which usually involves just popping them out into a plastic garbage bag and wiping down the interior with a microfiber cloth before replacing them. That can still be a little gross, but it's nothing like the filth and effort of having to gingerly carry the complete unit outside and tearing it apart.

Last summer in Washington State, west of the Cascades had a mere three days of wildfire smoke, and east of the Cascades had solid three months of it.  I don’t think we’re gonna get off that light two summers in a row.

I have assembled a Corsi-Rosenthal Box and left it in two parts for easier storage at present, but essentially, we are ready to start air scrubbing if we get wildfire smoke this summer.  My sibling shows up for her next stint of elder care (and my next break) the last week of June, and that visit last year coincided with a heat dome emergency.

The real trick to these things is to get your filters and fans ahead of the smoke event.  They also work to filter viral particles, and these are key for when you have one person in the house sick with COVID and need to keep other residents healthy.

How Air Filters Can Clean City's Air

Did you know that air pollution is responsible for millions of premature deaths each year? The World Health Organization estimates that around 7 million people die annually due to exposure to fine particles in polluted air. From exhaust fumes to industrial emissions, urban areas face a constant battle against air pollution, posing a significant threat to public well-being.

In this blog post, we delve into the pressing issue of air pollution in cities and explore how air filters can play a crucial role in cleaning up our urban environments. As an Air Filters Manufacturer, we understand the importance of finding effective solutions to combat pollution and improve air quality for everyone's benefit.

Join us as we uncover the impact of air pollution on our cities and discover how air filtration technology can help us breathe easier in our urban landscapes. Let's pave the way towards cleaner, healthier cities together.

How Air Filters Can Clean City’s Air

1. Trapping Particulate Matter:

Air filters are designed to capture particulate matter suspended in the air, including dust, pollen, and soot particles. These pollutants can exacerbate respiratory issues and contribute to poor air quality.

How it can be done: Air filters use a porous material to trap particles as air passes through. The size of the filter’s pores determines the types and sizes of particles it can capture. High-efficiency filters can effectively trap even the smallest particles, improving air quality.

2. Removing Harmful Gases:

Air filters can also help remove harmful gases from the air, such as nitrogen dioxide and volatile organic compounds (VOCs), which are emitted by vehicles and industrial sources.

How it can be done: Certain types of air filters, such as activated carbon filters, are capable of adsorbing gases and odors. As air passes through the filter, the porous carbon material traps and removes gas molecules, effectively purifying the air.

3. Reducing Allergens:

Air filters can help reduce allergens in the air, such as pet dander, mold spores, and dust mites, which can trigger allergic reactions and respiratory problems.

How it can be done: HEPA (High-Efficiency Particulate Air) filters are particularly effective at capturing allergens. These filters are designed to remove 99.97% of particles as small as 0.3 microns, providing relief for allergy sufferers.

4. Minimizing Odors:

Air filters can also help minimize unpleasant odors in the air, such as those from cooking, smoking, or industrial activities, improving indoor air quality and creating a more pleasant environment.

How it can be done: Activated carbon filters, with their adsorption properties, can effectively trap and neutralize odorous molecules, eliminating unwanted smells from the air.

5. Preventing Respiratory Issues:

By removing airborne pollutants and allergens, air filters can help prevent respiratory issues such as asthma attacks, bronchitis, and allergies, promoting better respiratory health.

How it can be done: Regularly replacing or cleaning air filters ensures that they remain effective in capturing pollutants and maintaining clean indoor air quality, thus reducing the risk of respiratory issues.

6. Enhancing Overall Air Quality:

Ultimately, air filters contribute to enhancing overall air quality by removing harmful pollutants, allergens, and odors, creating a healthier and more comfortable environment for inhabitants.

How it can be done: Installing quality air filters in ventilation systems, air purifiers, and HVAC units ensures that indoor air is continuously filtered and purified, leading to improved air quality and well-being.

CONCLUSION

In conclusion, air filters play a crucial role in cleaning up the air in cities burdened with pollution. From trapping particulate matter to removing harmful gases and allergens, air filters contribute significantly to improving overall air quality and promoting better respiratory health for city dwellers. By investing in quality air filtration systems, we can mitigate the harmful effects of air pollution and create cleaner, healthier urban environments for everyone.

Before buying an air filter, you should know the reasons why you need one. You may be allergic to pollen, dust, or mold. Bits of skin shed by furry animals, birds, or from our bodies also cause reactions in people who are sensitive to these things. The impurities are present in the air inside your home and get in your nostrils, throat, and lungs as you inhale.

The Best Air Filter For Your Home Depends on The Following Factors:

The amount of filtration required

The type of contaminants

Energy-efficient filters

Easy to maintain

How big are the domes? How much water is there that one could sink?

Oh, I assume you’re following up from this question here. they’re big - very big. Again, not sure where you are that you don’t know this stuff haha! And a lot of water - wait I can pull up a map for you

Those blue circles are the domes - you can see why they’d need such constant repair.

Ah, of course, something is acting up outside. I’ll be AWOL for a little bit while I get this fixed. Hopefully I can get it done before this next storm blows in - wish me luck!

fauci saying “vulnerable people will fall by the wayside” and that some will die but that’s ok because we’re not going to see the “tsunami of cases” we’ve seen before is so dehumanising. so babies with no immune system, elderly people, disabled people, and people without adequate access to healthcare can all die of covid. but it’s ok guys because actually they’re just falling to the wayside and everyone else will go back to normal and be fine (sarcasm).

my death or the deaths of my family or friends wouldn’t be us “falling by the wayside”, it would be us being failed by our government, healthcare systems, and communities who have refused to take coronavirus seriously despite mounting anecdotal and scientific evidence of the harm this virus does. fact that people can accept the deaths of vulnerable groups just because they want to eat in a restaurant or don’t want to wear a mask is horrifying

#yall can reblog this #for those of you touting community care or progressive values or allyship to marginalised communities #i better see y’all masking #it goes without saying that if you can’t mask then my saying mask up does not apply to you #but for the people who can mask please do so to protect yourself and others #masking up also protects people who aren’t able to mask #I’m just so tired of being told that death to a virus that is preventable via masking and air filtration and proper testing availability to #prevent spread by allowing people to stop their chain of transmission #is just. fine. like all these people will die and apparently that’s fine and actually a great thing #also. with one or two covid infections formerly healthy people enter vulnerable groups. because the studies coming out right now and #what we know about long term sars1 effects (because covid is not a cold or flu. it’s sars2. it’s severe accuse respiratory syndrome) #are showing that the long term effects on the bodies of people who have had covid will be disasterous #and if covid had been properly felt with then maybe only some people would be facing that reality. but the amount of people who have been #infected not just once but multiple times. with some people having close to double digit numbers of infections. means that the amount of #people looking at sars2 long term symptoms could be quite a large group #coronavirus #my post
